The slight rise in the MSX 30 Index signals resilience in Oman’s equity market, despite shrinking trading volumes and market capitalization. However, the significant net outflow of non-Omani investments highlights a potential risk of reduced foreign investor confidence, which businesses and investors should monitor closely. Smart investors should consider diversifying locally and strengthening domestic market appeal to mitigate foreign investment volatility.
