During this week, GP, Squire Pharma, BATBC, Lafarge Surma, ICB, UPGDCL, Titas Gas and SPPCL suffered major fall. Zeal Bangla and One Bank were also among the major losing issues when food & allied and cement were most lagging sectors.

The average daily trade value at DSE fell by 2.61 percent to Taka 367.74 crore, but the volume rose by 33.49 percent to 11.72 crore shares due to sell pressure. Chittagong Stock Exchange (CSE) also closed the week lower, with its CSCX index falling marginally to 8182.10.
Despite the sell pressure, engineering and miscellaneous sectors advanced moderately, with Keya Cosmetic, Libra Infusion, BSRM Limited, Eastern Lubricant and Savar Ref taking the top five positions among the gainers’ companies.
