Saudi stock market basking in global investor interest

Saudi stock market basking in global investor interest:

Is the Saudi stock market in the middle of a spectacular bull run? Some leading market experts think so.

Analysts at Jadwa Investments, the Riyadh-based financial group, believe it “totally plausible” that the Tadawul All Share Index (TASI), the main equity performance measure in the Kingdom, could be set for a 20 percent rise between now and early 2019, lifting it above the 10,000 point level for the first time since the heady days of 2014, before the oil price collapsed. It currently stands at around 8,400 points.

That would top an already strong performance in the first half of this year, boosted by inclusion in the top-three emerging market (EM) indices. The TASI is 17 percent ahead already this year, making it one of the best performing markets in the world, and the leading market in the Gulf.
