We read the closing price of every PSX share for 5 November in the exchange's own daily market summary file, and the index closes on the PSX data portal. Below are the shares that moved the index, the other indices, the shares that fell, and how to check a close yourself.

KSE-100 rose 3,366.38 points to 175,379.86 on 5 November

The KSE-100 gained 3,366.38 points, or 1.96%, to close at 175,379.86 on 5 November 2026. It follows a 3,994.62 point rise on Wednesday. Since Monday's close of 166,564.06, the index is up 8,815.80 points in three sessions.

The index is now back above where it started 2026. On Wednesday the portal showed it 1.17% down for the year. By our arithmetic, Thursday's close puts it about 0.8% up. It is still 15,652.87 points below its 52-week high of 191,032.73. Wednesday's session is in the 4 November close.

For a saver with Rs 100,000 in a fund that tracks the KSE-100, a 1.96% day is worth about Rs 1,960 before fees. Two days together come to about Rs 4,390. Funds do not track the index exactly, so the real figure will differ a little.

United Bank and Lucky Cement moved the index most

United Bank rose 2.46% to Rs 432.38 and added about 328 points, the most of any share. Lucky Cement rose 4.69% to Rs 434.63 and added about 316. Meezan Bank rose 3.07% and added about 271. The ten biggest point makers gave the index about 2,000 points, a little under two thirds of the day's gain.

The point figures here are our own estimates. The PSX constituents page shows live points for the current session only, so we worked out Thursday's points from each share's closing price change and its index weight. Our estimates add up to about 3,400 points, within about 1% of the real 3,366.38. The weight each share carries is in the KSE-100 companies and weights.

Banks again did the most work. By our estimate the 13 bank shares in the index added about 1,300 points between them, and the bank index rose 2.56%, faster than the KSE-100. No bank had posted a notice explaining the rise when we checked, so we do not give a reason.

Cement shares rose about 4% to 5%

Cement was the other strong group. Lucky Cement rose 4.69%, Maple Leaf 4.72% to Rs 102.09, Pioneer Cement 4.95%, Cherat Cement 4.38%, DG Khan Cement 4.19% and Kohat Cement 3.99%. Fauji Cement rose 3.40% to Rs 58.71.

Maple Leaf was also one of the busiest index shares, with 27.4 million shares traded. The biggest percentage gain in the index was Ghandhara Automobiles, up 7.24% to Rs 565.63. Nishat Mills rose 5.60% and Systems Limited 5.34%.

The busiest index shares by volume were Cnergyico, with 74.0 million shares traded as it rose 0.75% to Rs 12.06, Bank of Punjab with 69.7 million as it rose 2.59% to Rs 31.70, and K-Electric with 61.1 million as it rose 2.33% to Rs 6.14.

Only 13 of the 100 index shares fell

The fall side was small again. Of the 100 index shares, 85 rose, 13 fell and 2 did not change. No falling share cost the index more than about 30 points.

1. Pakistan Services (PSEL): down 2.01% to Rs 1,134.61, about minus 27 points.
2. Attock Refinery (ATRL): down 1.72% to Rs 986.12, about minus 26 points.
3. Mari Energies (MARI): down 0.32% to Rs 656.34, about minus 18 points.
4. Pakistan Oilfields (POL): down 0.33% to Rs 662.16, about minus 10 points.
5. Sui Southern Gas (SSGC): down 1.63% to Rs 22.94, about minus 5 points.

Pakistan Services fell for a second day after rising 10% on each of the two days before. It traded only 1,809 shares, so a small number of trades moved its price.
