TASI Mid-Market Update — February 25, 2026
In early trading on Wednesday, the Saudi benchmark index Tadawul All Shares Index(TASI.SA) declined by 0.7%, extending recent downward momentum. According to Reuters, this movement aligns with market observations regarding a quarter-on-quarter widening of the kingdom's budget deficit, attributed to increased expenditures.
The market experienced broad-based losses, with the financial sector leading the decline. Key banking constituents, including Al Rajhi Bank(1120.SA) and The Saudi National Bank(1180.SA), both registered decreases of 0.8%.
In the energy sector, Saudi Arabian Oil Co.(2222.SA) shares edged marginally lower by 0.4%. This follows recent developments indicating the company has finalized the sale of preliminary ultra-light crude shipments from its Jafurah gas facility to international buyers ahead of its initial export phase. Broader regional market activity remains mixed as participants monitor ongoing geopolitical developments, including the upcoming U.S.-Iran nuclear discussions scheduled for later in the week.
Saudi Arabian Mining Co.(1211.SA) increases 0.1%, while ACWA POWER Co.(2082.SA) lost by 1.3%, and Saudi Basic Industries Corp.(2010.SA) down by 0.3%.
