The KSE-100 again traded in a narrow range, swinging between 47,500 and 47,900 to eventually finish 149 points lower as uncertainty remained at the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) on Thursday.

At close, the KSE-100 finished with a decrease of 149 points or 0.31% to settle at 47,640.88.

The KSE-100 started off on a positive note, gaining 106.51 points as the benchmark index touched an intra-day high of 47,896.39. However, the level of 48,000 continued to remain elusive as the index failed to sustain its gains. The index has stayed below 48,000 for almost a month now.

Uncertainty amid rising cases of Covid-19, fast spreading Delta variant, faltering rupee due to high import bill and volatile situation on borders has continued to worry investors.
