The Qatar Stock Exchange on Thursday saw domestic institutions turn bullish, even as it settled lower for the second straight session. The buying interests in the insurance, transport and industrials counters notwithstanding, the 20-stock Qatar Index was down 0.05% to 10,761.35 points, having touched an intraday high of 10,794 points. The selling pressure of the foreign and Gulf individuals were seen easing in the market, whose year-to-date gains were at 3.12%. About 60% of the traded constituents were in the red in the bourse, whose capitalisation saw more than QR1bn or 0.17% decrease to QR624.77mn, mainly owing to microcap segments.More Related News
