    Did you wake up now?

    Pakistan's foreign reserves had reached at least 17.71 billion dollars by 24th of April as shown in its report on 30th of April 2015. So at 17.49 billion dollars it is not at it's peak that was witnessed last week..

    S&P raised Pakistan's rating yesterday and its been discussed here already

    Nevertheless, positive news is a welcome sign for Pakistan so enjoy

    as a very small student of Economics, my answer is yes,
    Because its shows, that we will able to fulfill our requirement of Foreign Exchange for Imports for 4-6 Months, which is healthy sign for any Economy.

    In my point of view second thought is, International doner Agencies , gave loans on easy terms, when u have good Foreign Exchange Reserves in your hands.

    But if there is a huge disparity in current reserves and total outstanding debt.
    Like we have 17 bn dollars in reserves and our debt is around 60 billion

    But reserves are Increasing, which is positive sign.
    and most importantly Inflation is also at lowest level of 4%, which is very very good.

    You will not be paying 60b at once, as far as you can easily pay installments all is well.
    Increase in foreign reserve means that inflow of forex is more than out flow, it's good thing (but in case of Pakistan it will have negative effect beyond certain point as stronger rupee will make our exports expensive). Question should be what is the reason of increase, exports, fdi, remittances or new loans and aids.
