1 MARKET WATCH Market Performance This week marked the end of the persistent climb in the General Index of recent weeks, with the Index closing in the red every day this week, aside from Tuesday. With the end of the month approaching, coinciding with the end of the first half of the financial year, the Amman Stock Exchange was witness to a flurry of selling activity by institutions and individuals alike, in a bid to realise profits on the second quarter P&L statements, and to close margin positions.

Al Amal Financial Investors was our top decliner, due to the adjustment of its stock reference price following the listing of its rights issue.
