Search web search Home Singapore Asia Pacific World Business Entertainment Sports Technology Singapore Asia Pacific World Pakistani stocks down; rupee weakens; o/n rates up Reuters - Tuesday, May 4 Send IM Story Print KARACHI, May 3 - Pakistani stocks fell in dull trading on Monday and dealers said investors were likely to be cautious until there is clarity on the fifth tranche from the International Monetary Fund or until the budget is announced. The Karachi Stock Exchange's benchmark 100-share index <.KSE> ended 0.37 percent, or 38.66 points, lower at 10,389.46. Volume was 67 million shares, compared with 96.88 million shares traded on Friday. "Today's volume at KSE was the lowest in 2010," said Mohammed Sohail, chief executive at Topline Securities Ltd. Net foreign portfolio outflow of $710,949 on Friday also prompted selling by local investors, dealers said. Dealers said investors were cautious as they were waiting for the approval of the fifth tranche from the IMF. The IMF board will likely meet in mid-May to consider the next tranche of Pakistan's $11.3 billion loan, a source close to talks between IMF officials and the government said last month. [ID:nN23141787] The board had originally been scheduled to meet on March 31 to approve the next portion of the emergency package, which was first agreed on in November 2008 to avert a balance of payments crisis and shore up reserves. However, differences over several issues, including an increase in power tariffs and implementation of a value-added tax, have delayed approval of the tranche. [ID:nSGE63Q06N] The budget for the fiscal year beginning on July 1 is due to be announced in late May or early June. The rupee <PKR=> weakened against the dollar on Monday amid higher demand for dollars for import payments, but dealers said they expected the rupee to hold steady in coming days. The rupee closed at 84.05/10 to the dollar, compared with Friday's close of 83.95/84.00. Dealers said they expected the rupee to be stable in the short-term but it could weaken in the medium-term because of pressure from import payments. In the money market, overnight rates ended up on Monday after the State Bank of Pakistan sold 65 billion rupees of treasury bills in a 4-day repo at 10.97 percent. [SBPK10] Overnight call rates ended between 11.50 percent and 12.00 percent, compared with Friday's close of 9.60 percent. Dealers said there was liquidity in the market as the government may have released about 60 billion to 70 billion rupees to clear the circular debt.
