The Saudi Standard’s View: Market Pauses, Not Retreats

This week’s TASI performance signals a market in wait-and-see mode. Despite slight gains in the index, trading volumes declined, suggesting a pullback in risk appetite. Selective strength in insurance and retail implies investor interest in defensive and non-cyclical sectors. If external conditions stabilize, the market may resume broader upward momentum in the coming sessions.
