Zaki Bhai, not to be overly critic but isn't this just based on volume increase during the three month period rather than an analysis of the performance? Anyways, an 8 percent volume increase is showing investor confidence and the stock market has been bullish over the past weeks as well.

oh yaar i just shared a news

and all major stock markets are bullish since past couple of months. Peoples are trusting stock markets once again and they are on 52 weeks high.

KSE (18 Months high)
DOW Jones (12 months high)
S&P 500 (12 Months high)
NASDAQ (12 months high)
London (12 months high)
Paris (12 months high)
NIKKIE (12 months high)

everywhere you see they are on 12 months high.

and KSE was suppose to rise again this is not an impressive news for me remember back in 2008 we were 16,000 points and then dropped to 7000 in 2009 and now it was certain the markets will retrace due to Fibonacci.

Our potential is underused and thats a fact. During 2000-2010, all the Asian markets have been on the boom while we in Pakistan have been engrossed into socio-political nightmares. Now Pakistan has turning its tide of darkness over and many aspects of society are on improve including judiciary, media, public awareness and economic activities. Although getting only slightly better but we have starting bouncing back after hitting the ocean bottom. I hope Pakistan will regain its growth rate and soon Inshallah.

Be aware of Mr. %age and moron looters.

 

[ajpirzada]

its not the volume. its the return per market share.
but on a critical note, we are the riskiest market as well which takes away most of the advantage. but with political environment calming down, im quite optimistic about this year.

Karachi stock exchange has been star performer for a decade now.

KSE-100 was just over 1000 points at the end of 1999, and it closed at over 9727.40 on Dec 31, 2009. Pakistan rupee remained quite stable at 60 rupees to a US dollar until 2008, slipping only recently to about 80 rupees to a dollar. In spite of the currency decline, Pakistan's KSE-100 stock index surged 55% in 2009 in US dollar terms and 65% in rupee terms. During the same period of 1999-2009, Mumbai Sensex index moved from just over 5000 points to close at 17,464.81. If you had invested $100 in KSE-100 stocks on Dec. 31, 1999, you'd have over $900 today, while $100 invested in the Mumbai's Sensex stocks would be worth $274. Investment of $100 in emerging-market stocks in general on Dec. 31, 1999, would get you about $262 today, while $100 invested in the S&P500 would be worth $91.

Using a 10-year window with year-end closes in 1999 and 2009, it comes to about 21% CAGR. If you discount it for Pak currency decline from 55 to 85 rupees to a dollar (most of which occurred since 2008), then the CAGR return is still a whopping 16% a year....clearly beating all of the BRIC nations' stock performance in this period.

I am still thinking how to laugh at your figures.And added to that you are maintaining a blog with some dilusioned numbers

* 4000, March 30, 1992 - On March 30, 1992, the Sensex crossed the 4,000-mark and closed at 4,091 on the expectations of a liberal export-import policy. It was then that the Harshad Mehta scam hit the markets and Sensex witnessed unabated selling.

* 5000, October 11, 1999 - On October 8, 1999, the Sensex crossed the 5,000-mark as the Bharatiya Janata Party-led coalition won the majority in the 13th Lok Sabha election.

* 21,000, Jan 08, 2008 - The Sensex on January 8, 2008 touched all time peak of 21078 before closing at 20873.[3]

First of all, there is no need to get personal.

Second, I don't see your point. Riaz is taking about a 10 year date range. You can pick other dates and end up with different closing levels for the Sensex. However, over the 1999-2010 period, the KSE has delivered far higher returns than the Sensex, any way you look at it.

“Since we opened in 1997, investors have achieved an average annual return of 17.5 per cent. That’s not bad,” he said. More than half the shares currently listed on the PSE are held by local investors, with much of the rest controlled by investors from the Gulf and other Arab countries.
