Brother, let me expose some obvious lies and how people fall for it … even those on this forum
… Here is what spock posted:
From above it seems obvious according to paper that Court ruling against Nawaz was major setback for stock market. Now check the timing on the site given in Dawn (Monday 23-6-08): http://www.dawn.com/2008/06/23/welcome.htm
Judgement: Pakistani court bars former premier Nawaz Sharif from running in upcoming by-elections; Shahbaz case referred back to ECP ISLAMABAD, Pakistan, June 23 (AP) -
… (First Posted @ 19:20 PST Updated @ 21:10 PST)
Stock Market close after losses, much before court ruling: **Karachi Stocks down 493.11 points: **KARACHI, June 23: At close of trading, the KSE-100 index was at 11162.17, down 493.11 points. (Bureau Report) (Updated @ 14:15 PST)
So, you can see the closing time of KSE (14.15 PST) and judgment time (19:20 PST … updated at 21.10 PST). It shows that when judgement came, KSE was already closed. So, it is obvious that Newspaper lied when they wrote that ruling was major setback for stock market. Respond of KSE because of ruling could not have come on Monday (23-6-08). If there was major setback, it has to come on Tuesday but KSE went up 960 points on Tuesday (24-6-08).
Karachi Stocks up 960.50 points: KARACHI, June 24: At close of trading, the KSE-100 index was at 12122.67, up 960.50 points. (Bureau Report) (Updated @ 14:17 PST)
Now, is that major setback that KSE rose 960.5 points, highest ever one day rise?
Well, it is obvious that major setback was not in Stock Market but in the ‘head’ of these reporters full of lies. It is really frustrating when National Newspapers misguide people and our fellow guppy like ‘Spock’ get misguided and then start suspecting those who put truth in front of them ![]()
