Saudi TASI closes just above 10,000 after falling 0.8%

Saudi Arabia’s TASI index fell 0.8% to close at 10,017, after dipping to 9,985 during the session.

The index tracks shares listed on the Saudi stock market, and the 10,000-point level is now a key threshold for investors.

Banks and telecom companies drove the decline, even though 129 companies rose and 113 fell.

Their losses mattered more because large companies have greater influence on the index.

Trading value dropped 34% to 2.74 billion riyals, showing less activity than in the previous session.

The broader trend remains weak: about 89% of active companies traded below their 200-day average, a measure of longer-term share prices.

Investors will watch whether TASI holds above 10,000 and whether trading activity improves in coming sessions.
