Foreign buying interest had been very active on the KSE in 2006 and has continued in 2007 so far. According to estimates from the State Bank of Pakistan, foreign investment in capital markets total about $523 Million US. According to a research analyst in Pakistan, around 20pc of the total free float in KSE-30 Index is held by foreign participants.
KSE has seen some fluctuations since the start of 2007. One reason could be that it is the election year in Pakistan, and stocks are expected to remain dull. KSE has set an all time high of 12,400 points, before settling around the 11,000 mark. Result season in June and better payout expectations can drive the market to record level high again.
Karachi stock exchange Board of Directors has recently (2007) announced plans to construct a 40 story highrise KSE building , as a new direction for future investment.
