Karachi: Pakistan stocks on Tuesday plunged to a 30-month low as the country’s extremely riotous political situation freaked economy-wary investors. The KSE-100 Shares Index, the benchmark of the country’s capital market, lost 1,378.54 points, or about 3.47%, to close at 38,342.21 points. The delay in the revival of the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) loan program and the ongoing political uncertainty in the country caused the bloodbath in the stock market.
