Saudi main stock index rises 56.53 points

Saudi Arabia’s main stock index rose 56.53 points on Thursday, reaching 10,095.42.

Trading in the main market was worth 4.1 billion riyals, with 267 million shares traded.

Shares in 177 companies gained, while 87 fell, so more companies rose than declined.

The country also has a parallel market called Nomu, which tracks a separate group of listed companies.

Nomu closed 132.65 points higher at 21,660.28, with trading worth 23 million riyals.

The figures show gains in both Saudi markets, though the main index had far more trading by value.
