Saudi Arabia’s equity market closed lower at the end of the latest trading session, with the Tadawul All Share Index declining by one point one nine percent as losses spread across multiple sectors.

Market participants reported subdued sentiment through the session, with selling pressure weighing on heavyweight stocks and dragging the benchmark into negative territory by the close.

Shares in financial services, energy and materials were among those contributing to the downturn, reflecting cautious positioning by investors amid global market uncertainty and evolving economic signals.

Trading volumes were active, indicating continued engagement even as prices retreated, while analysts noted that short-term movements were influenced by external market trends as well as local profit-taking.

Despite the day’s decline, Saudi Arabia’s stock market remains one of the region’s most closely watched, supported by ongoing economic reform, large-scale investment projects and steady interest from domestic and international investors.

Market observers said attention will now turn to upcoming corporate announcements and broader global developments for direction in the next sessions.
