TASI Mid-Market Update — Aug 17, 2026
Saudi Arabia's benchmark stock index, the Tadawul All Shares Index(TASI.SA), registered a slight decline in early Monday trading, easing by 0.2%. The downward movement was primarily driven by losses in heavyweights, with Al Rajhi Bank(1120.SA) down 0.7% and oil major Saudi Arabian Oil Co.(2222.SA) also dropping 0.6%.
The subdued performance across Gulf markets reflects ongoing geopolitical concerns surrounding regional diplomacy and potential disruptions to trade and energy flows through the Strait of Hormuz. Additionally, local sentiment was influenced by security updates following a temporary alert in Jazan province, which authorities subsequently confirmed had passed.
In the large-cap sector, The Saudi National Bank(1180.SA) is holding steady. Saudi Arabian Mining Co.(1211.SA) is edging higher by 0.1%. ACWA POWER Co.(2082.SA) is retreating by 1.6%. Saudi Basic Industries Corp.(2010.SA) and Saudi Arabian Oil Co.(2222.SA) are both seeing declines, moving 0.76% and 0.67% respectively.
