MIDEAST STOCKS-Most Gulf markets fall as oil drops; foreigners buy in Egypt | Reuters:

"Shares fell on most Gulf stock markets on Wednesday after oil prices dropped overnight, but Egyptian stocks rose, with foreigners the net buyers by a considerable margin.

Saudi Arabia's index dropped 0.7 percent to 5,833 points, testing minor technical support at the early February low of 5,834 points. Another close below that support would confirm a break, triggering a minor double top formed by the end-January and February highs and targeting about 5,600 points.

Most petrochemical shares held up relatively well, with Saudi Basic Industries climbing 0.4 percent, but many second- and third-tier stocks were sold by local investors.
