Tadawul All Share Index (TASI) closed March 16 session at 12,656 points, skyrocketing 112%, or 6,696 points, compared to the trough recorded on March 16, 2020.
On March 16, 2020, the Saudi benchmark dropped to the lowest level since 2016, shedding 5.2% to end at 5,960 points, as many stocks fell their daily limits.
In March 2020, TASI extended losses to dip below the 6,000-mark on the emergence of COVID-19 as a global pandemic and the related precautionary measures to contain its spread.
The Saudi gauge improved gradually during that period, backed by the Kingdom’s support for various business sectors to mitigate the pandemic impact, the gradual lifting of precautionary measures, and the significant rise in oil prices.
