KSE 100 Index

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Karachi Stock Exchange 100 Index (KSE-100 Index) is a benchmark used to compare prices over a period of time, companies with the highest market capitalization are selected. However, to ensure full market representation, the company with the highest market capitalization from each sector is also included. This approach has disadvantages to go along with its advantages.

The index was launched in late 1991 with a base of 1,000 points. By 2001, it had grown to 1,770 points. By 2005, it had skyrocketed to 9,989 points. It reached a peak of 12,285 in February 2007. [1]
