Abstract :

This study's goal is to determine how COVID-19 affects Pakistani stock trading volume on the PSX-100 Index. This study uses a descriptive design to analyze the impact statistically and is quantitative in nature. There are four variables in the study: three independent and one dependent. The current study's data covers daily COVID-19 deaths, recoveries, and positive cases between February 26, 2020, and March 10, 2021. The study's conclusions suggest that COVID-19 manipulates the volume of stock trades on the Pakistan Stock Exchange. Future studies are needed on the following topics: economic growth, interest rates, exports and imports, consumer spending, and inflation.
