Why Middle East closed broadly down
Tadawul tech sell‑off

The Tadawul decline was driven by losses in key sectors including cement, petrochemicals and energy & utilities, highlighting sector-specific weakness.

US‑Iran tensions

Markets fell following renewed Middle East geopolitical risk, with buyers retreating amid conflict concerns.

Dollar‑linked outflows

Strength in the US dollar triggered equity selling as foreign investors pulled back amid regional currency peg dynamics.
