Lahore stocks on Friday closed on depressed note amid insignificant trading while the LSE-25 index registered marginal improvement of 1.75 points. The index ended at 2825.36 against previous day's closing of 2823.61 while transaction volume was restricted to only 500 shares as compared to Thursday's turnover of 13,500 shares.
Zeal Pak Cement was the only company whose 500 shares changed hands while 74 companies stayed glued to their previous levels. According to experts, if the newly constituted fund takes place next week before removal of floor, the market may attract investors, who have been staying at a distance for the last couple of months.
