The key index of the Dhaka Stock Exchange has surged by 5.44%, marking the highest increase in four and a half years. Following the fall of Sheikh Hasina, the index has gained 13% or 695 points in just three days. Investors are pleased as stocks of financially healthy companies have risen, rather than those of companies with poor financials. This suggests that institutional investors are injecting more money into the market.

The DSEX Index for Shariah-compliant companies rose by 55 points, or 4.57%, reaching 1,274 points. Notable contributors to this increase include BAT with 22 points, BRAC Bank with 18 points, Square Pharma with 18 points, and Islami Bank with 16.7 points. A similar trend is observed in the Chittagong Stock Exchange, where the CASPI index has climbed by 861 points, or 5.40%, to 16,799 points.
