DHAKA, Nov 13, 2025 (BSS) - Country's both bourses, Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) and Chittagong Stock Exchange (CSE) today plunged due to mainly price fall in large-cap securities.
 DSEX, the broad index of the DSE, plummeted by 122.6 points and settled at 4,703 points as against 4,825 points in the previous trading session.
  Meanwhile, the panic-driven sell-offs caused an increase in market turnover by 32.1% to Taka 3.8 billion from the previous session’s 4-month low of Taka 2.9 billion.
 On the sectoral front, Pharma (12.8%) issues exerted the highest turnover, followed by Engineering (11.9%) and Bank (10.7%) sectors.
 All the sectors displayed negative returns, out of which Jute (-7.9%), Paper (-6.4%) and Life Insurance (-5.5%) exerted the most corrections on the bourse today.
 Out of the 397 issues traded, 14 advanced, 351 declined and 32 remained unchanged.
 The port city bourse, CSE, mirrored the similar bearish trend. The Selective Categories' Index (CSCX) and All Share Price Index (CASPI) plunged by 127.6 points and 216.8 points, respectively.
