The Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) staged a modest recovery on Friday (May 9) morning after a historic plunge in the previous session. The benchmark KSE-100 Index closed at 107,174.64, up 3,647.82 points or 3.52%.

The slight rebound came after Thursday’s sell-off, when the index plummeted 7.6% to an intraday low of 101,598.91 before closing at 102,674, down 7,334.93 points or 6.67%.

The market volatility is unfolding against the backdrop of escalating military tensions between Pakistan and India. On Thursday night, India launched a retaliatory strike following what it called a “steep military escalation” by Pakistan earlier in the day.

Pakistan’s Economic Affairs Division appeared to make a public plea for international financial assistance, stating on X (formerly Twitter):
“Govt of Pakistan appeals to International Partners for more loans after heavy losses inflected (sic) by enemy. Amid escalating war and stocks crash, we urge international partners to help de-escalate. Nation urged to remain steadfast.”

However, the Pakistani government later disowned the post, claiming its official X account had been compromised.

A Reuters report, quoting a Pakistan government spokesperson, stated that the Ministry of Economic Affairs did not tweet the post.
