Among other grounds, it was pleaded before the Honorable Court that the Respondents have acted in violation of the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, 1973, as they have no right to restrict any specific securities eligible for trading in the deliverable futures contract and cash settled futures contract markets, under the guise that such entities have invoked their constitutional right of protection by assailing any illegal action in a court of law.

  • Pakistan Stock Market Reaction to Covid-19
    PAKISTAN STOCK MARKET REACTION TO COVID-19 HAMID HUSSAIN1 The COVID-19 outbreak could go down as a significant illustration of an overlooked danger in history. Much of the concern of corporate decision-makers and policymakers has centered on mainstream market risk outlets and the urgent climate change problem. Major personal life disturbances are happening, for example curfew-like situations in Pakistan and in other countries. Besides the acute disasters of death and illness, there is pervasive apprehension (leading, for instance, to mass purchase of daily goods). The potential economic influence of COVID-19 remains somewhat unpredictable, as it is not clear regarding the propagation of the epidemic, its extent and mortality rate, the policy responses and human behavior. Economists anticipate the COVID-19 to reduce global economic development by about 0.15 percentage points in 2020, translated into about $135 billion in postponed or unproduced products and services. This year's effects would be guided by three things: first, how quickly the virus travels and how long it lasts; secondly, how much concern affects travel, consumer buying, production, and trade; and finally what steps policymakers take to avoid the spread of the virus and improve productivity. In this case, the equity market provides a beneficial opportunity to examine, which companies find creditors to be especially impacted by the direct and indirect consequences of the virus outbreak and which companies may not be impaired. In this way, the equity exchange offers a constantly monitored and welcomed overview of what the markets think may eventually be the economic effect of the epidemic.
