When addressing the sector level, the financial advisor indicated that all sectors stabilised in the red zone during the current week, with the industrial sector recording the largest losses, with a decline of 1.08 percent due to the decline in the Industries Qatar stock.
The communications sector also declined by nearly 1 percent with Ooredoo closing in the red zone, while the real estate sector was the least declining sector during the current week, as its percentage decreased by 0.16 percent.
He pointed out that the index ended the last sessions of the current week with a decline of about 0.42 percent, moving below the 10,400 points barrier, which represented support levels for the index, and closed at 10,394 points.
