Closing Bell: Saudi main index closes in green before Eid holidays

RIYADH: Saudi Arabia's Tadawul All Share Index climbed on Wednesday, gaining 172.1 points, or 1.59 percent, to close at 11,004.53. The total trading turnover on the benchmark index was SR4.61 billion ($1.23 billion), with 191 listed stocks advancing and 50 declining. The Kingdom's parallel market Nomu surged by 257.9 points to close at 27,307.74. Meanwhile, the MSCI Tadawul Index edged up by 1.67 percent to 1,406.49. The best-performing stock on the main market was Saudi Industrial Investment Group, with its share price surging 7.03 percent to SR17.36. The share price of ACWA Power Co. also rose by 6.72 percent to SR269.80. Al-Babtain Power and Telecommunication Co. saw its stock price increase by 5.40 percent to SR5.40. Conversely, the share price of Saudi Steel Pipe Co. fell by 6.33 percent to SR56.20. Saudi Research and Media Group also saw a dip, with its share price easing 2.26 percent to SR127. On the announcements front, Saudi National Bank completed its offer of Saudi riyal-denominated Additional Tier 1 sukuk, with the settlement finalized on June 3. According to a statement on the Saudi Exchange dated May 11, the issuance was conducted through a private offer to eligible investors in the Kingdom. The total value of the sukuk offering amounted to SR1.73 billion. The bank issued 1,730 sukuk, each with a par value of SR1 million. The sukuk will offer an annual return of 6 percent from the issue date until June 3, 2030. The share price of Saudi National Bank increased by 0.88 percent to close at SR34.45. The announcement coincided with the implementation of the unified regulation for cross-border registration of investment funds among Gulf Cooperation Council countries, which came into effect in 2025, according to the Capital Market Authority. The regulation outlines requirements for registering and marketing investment funds across GCC countries and introduces a dedicated regulatory guide. It aims to clarify procedures for handling both local and Gulf-based funds, enhance financial market services, and reduce regulatory challenges. Additionally, the framework seeks to support mechanisms that attract international investments to the Saudi financial market and boost foreign ownership in investment funds. The broader goal is to improve liquidity in regional financial markets, enhance the competitiveness of GCC economies, and foster integration by unifying the policies and systems governing domestic, regional, and foreign investment activities. The regulation also aims to ensure a transparent and stable investment environment. Under the framework, the legislative committee in each host country will have the authority to set standards for approving fund registrations and supervising funds within its jurisdiction, including overseeing the appointed agent and their interactions with investors. Cross-border registration must be conducted through the capital market authorities of both the fund's country of origin and the host country. The regulation allows investment funds established in any GCC member state to be promoted in other countries applying the framework. It also outlines the process for offering Saudi funds in Gulf markets, with a focus on aligning with regulatory review mechanisms and cross-border registration requirements to ensure full compliance with approved guidelines.

2025 Tesla Model 3 Review

The 2025 Tesla Model 3 continues to perform strongly as one of the cornerstones of the electric vehicle market. Since its debut in 2017, it has established itself as a more accessible alternative to previous Tesla models and played a significant role in popularizing electric cars globally. With over one million units sold worldwide by 2021, it stands as one of the most successful EVs ever. The latest 2025 version is part of the major refresh known as 'Project Highland,' announced in 2023, which brought notable improvements in design, efficiency, and technology. Exterior Design The 2025 Model 3 features a sleeker and more refined look, with a lower front end, a redesigned rear diffuser, and enhanced aerodynamic wheels that reduce drag coefficient to 0.219, down from 0.225. The taillights have been updated to create a more cohesive design with the trunk sides, giving the car a more streamlined and modern appearance. These changes improve both aesthetics and aerodynamic performance, resulting in better driving range. In terms of paint options, the 2025 Model 3 comes in standard white at no additional cost. For those seeking a more distinctive look, Tesla offers several premium colors. These include solid black, metallic blue, and dark gray for an additional SAR 5,300. Eye-catching options like red and mercury silver come at a higher premium of SAR 8,000 on top of the car's base price. Interior Design The 2025 Tesla Model 3 boasts a modern cabin that blends tranquility with cutting-edge tech, delivering a refined and comfortable driving experience. Material quality has been upgraded with meticulous attention to detail. One standout feature is the 8-inch rear touchscreen that allows backseat passengers to control climate and media, complementing the main 15.4-inch center display. The front seats are ventilated and can be pre-cooled or auto-adjusted via the mobile app for added comfort. Tesla's premium sound system includes up to 17 speakers and dual subwoofers, paired with enhanced microphones for clearer calls. Wireless charging for two phones is also available, making daily use more convenient. The cabin benefits from exceptional quietness thanks to sound-insulating glass surrounding the occupants. A panoramic glass roof enhances the sense of space, allowing natural light in while blocking harmful UV rays. In a bold design move, Tesla replaced traditional turn signal stalks with steering wheel-mounted buttons—a feature borrowed from refreshed Model S and X vehicles—though it has drawn mixed reactions regarding usability and safety. Performance Specifications The 2025 Tesla Model 3 comes in several versions with varying performance and range: Standard Range RWD Range: 520 km (WLTP) Acceleration: 0–100 km/h in 6.1 seconds Drivetrain: Rear-wheel drive Energy consumption: 13.2 kWh/100 km Max Supercharging: 170 kW Long Range RWD Range: 702 km (18″) / 640 km (19″) Acceleration: 0–100 km/h in 5.2 seconds Drivetrain: Rear-wheel drive Energy consumption: 13.6 kWh/100 km Max Supercharging: 250 kW Long Range AWD Range: 629 km (WLTP) Acceleration: 0–100 km/h in 4.4 seconds Drivetrain: Dual Motor AWD Energy consumption: 14.0 kWh/100 km Max Supercharging: 250 kW AWD Performance Range: 528 km (WLTP) Top Speed: 262 km/h Acceleration: 0–100 km/h in 3.1 seconds Drivetrain: Dual Motor Performance Additional Features: Adaptive air suspension, sport seats, 20″ forged wheels, Track Mode v3 Max Supercharging: 250 kW All trims accommodate five passengers and include the central 15.4-inch touchscreen along with 682 liters of cargo space.
