QSE index surges 2.51% in weekly rally as Baladna leads gains
Tribune News Network Doha The Qatar Stock Exchange (QSE) witnessed a strong performance this week, rallying by 285.10 points or 2.51 percent to close at 11,648.81 points, driven by robust activity in financial and industrial stocks. QSE's market capitalisation rose 2.45 percent to QR692.8 billion, up from QR 676.3 billion at the end of the previous trading week, reflecting renewed investor confidence and heightened liquidity in the market. Of the 53 companies traded, 35 advanced during the week while 18 declined. Baladna emerged as the best performing stock, surging 16.4 percent, whereas Mannai recorded the steepest decline, falling by 2 percent. Leading the index gains were the major banking stocks, with Qatar Islamic Bank adding 67.69 points, QNB Group contributing 62.04 points, and Commercial Bank of Qatar providing 29.21 points. Together, these three financial powerhouses accounted for a significant portion of the weekly index surge, highlighting the central role of the banking sector in driving market performance. Trading activity was notably higher compared with the previous week, with the total traded value rising 30.5 percent to QR2,912.9 million from QR2,232.7 million. Traded volume increased 38.5 percent to 1,443.2 million shares, while the number of transactions edged up by 1.5 percent to 116,920. Baladna was both the top value-traded and volume-traded stock, with a total traded value of QR 548.3 million and a traded volume of 336.5 million shares, reflecting strong investor interest. Investor sentiment remained mixed. Foreign institutions maintained a bullish stance, registering net purchases of QR166.4 million, although slightly lower than the net buying of QR256.1 million recorded the previous week. Qatari institutions remained on the selling side, with net disposals of QR88.5 million compared with QR28 million previously. Retail investors also showed varied activity, with foreign retail investors recording net sales of QR7.3 million, down from QR13.5 million, while Qatari retail investors reduced their net selling to QR70.7 million from QR214.6 million. Year-to-date, global foreign institutions have accumulated $219.0 million in Qatari equities, while GCC institutions hold a net long position of $11.2 million, signaling continued confidence from both regional and international investors. Financial market analyst Youssef Bouhlaiqa told Qatar News Agency that the QSE is on an upward trajectory and could soon challenge the 12,000-point barrier, driven by encouraging corporate earnings and supportive global indices. He noted that listed companies have reported a net profit increase of 2.11 percent that combined with positive global developments, reinforces investor optimism. Bouhlaiqa also pointed to the likelihood of US Federal Reserve interest rate cuts, which would enhance liquidity flows into markets, including Qatar, and increase the attractiveness of Qatari equities. He further highlighted the potential easing of geopolitical tensions, particularly the Russia-Ukraine conflict, as an additional positive factor for global investment sentiment. Bouhlaiqa advised investors to focus on leading stocks in sectors such as industrials, insurance, and telecommunications, which are expected to be the main drivers of investment decisions in the near term. According to him, the third quarter of 2025 is anticipated to witness strong market performance underpinned by rising corporate results. This week's rally in the QSE underscores the combination of strong institutional support, robust financial sector performance, and heightened investor confidence. With key stocks like Baladna leading the gains and major banks underpinning index growth, the market has demonstrated resilience amid ongoing global and regional developments. Observers remain optimistic that, supported by favorable liquidity conditions and continued corporate earnings growth, the QSE could sustain its momentum and achieve new milestones in the coming weeks.
