Dubai's benchmark drops 0.5 percent to 1,556 points, its ninth decline in 10 sessions and lowest close since Feb. 16.
Volumes have slumped in recent weeks and may decrease further, with trading usually slowing down significantly over the summer as investors escape the searing summer heat.

assistant fund manager at Al Masah Capital.
