The closing figures
Saudi Arabia's Tadawul All Share Index gained 323.28 points, or 3.43%, to finish the 26 October session at 9,761.78, Arab News reported. Trading exceeded 342 million shares with a value of approximately SR5.18 billion.
The advance was broad in the reported session, with 259 companies rising and eight falling. Nomu, the parallel market, gained 0.8% to 21,211.72. These are dated closing figures, not current quotes.
An exchange operator moved differently
Saudi Tadawul Group Holding declined 1.87% in the same session. The report, citing an official release, said its net profit fell 34.6% to SR195.8 million in the first nine months of 2026, while revenue declined 5.8% to SR909.3 million.
Lower capital-markets and post-trade services revenue weighed on the result, partly offset by growth in data and technology services. A rising index on one day and lower period earnings at the exchange operator describe different measures and are not contradictory.
Keep the time windows separate
The session provides a snapshot of market prices and activity. The corporate results cover nine months. Neither should be turned into a forecast of future returns. The source also lists company announcements with their own approval and execution conditions; those are not completed simply because the broader market rose.
