      <title>Stock market crosses 56,000 points for the first time</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/30340270/stock-market-crosses-56000-points-for-the-first-time</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Pakistan Stock Exchange crossed the 56,000 market on Monday after recording a significant surge owing to improved investors’ sentiments, dealers said.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The KSE-100 Index gained 1,132.22 points 2.04%, the biggest single-day rally since August 9, to reach 56,523.58 levels at the closing of the trading session, they added.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Similarly, the KSE-30 Index gained 421.79 points or 2.27% to close at 18,988.15 on Monday, the first trading session of the week.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The benchmark KSE-100 Index has been climbing steadily in recent weeks and has broken multiple records.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Meanwhile, the policy-level discussions between Pakistan and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for the upcoming tranche valued at $710 million began earlier today.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The policy-level talks come after a round of technical-level talks and are expected to last three days.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Representatives from the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC) will provide the IMF with a briefing on the initial day of the policy-level discussions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;While the stock market recorded continuous gains, the rupee remained under pressure in the interbank foreign exchange market.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The greenback gained 52 paisas to reach Rs287.55 at the closing of the market, as against the closing of Rs287.03 on Friday, November 10.&lt;/p&gt;
