English brief
Summary
Emirates stock markets showed mixed performance over the week: Dubai rose 0.39% while Abu Dhabi declined 0.69%, with liquidity around 9.63 billion dirhams. Banks and property stocks led gains, aided by selective buying, even as oil price fluctuations and regional tensions persisted. Notable weekly movers included Dubai’s Aman and Rakor Corporation, while tech and some mixed sectors faced declines. Foreign buyers were net purchasers in Abu Dhabi, whereas Gulf and citizen investors sold. Dubai attracted net buying from Arabs and foreigners.
