We saw the corporate earnings negatively impacted during the quarter due to overall slowdown and on seasonality (Ramadan and Summer impact). We saw relative outperformance trend in Saudi (+1.1% WTD) and Kuwait (+0.3% WTD). While, the UAE (DFM ‐0.8% WTD and ADX ‐1% WTD) and Qatar (‐ 1.7% WTD) were down sharply. Oman ended lower by 1.3% for the week amid weak sentiments along with selling pressure from the local and regional investors. We anticipate the local and the GCC equities to open in red for the week and to trade stock specific amid risk off trade seen due to global geopolitical tensions. MSM trades technically weak, to find next support closer to 4,960 levels.
