The stock markets today traded in the green at opening after five days of continuous fall, despite the looming economic uncertainty caused by the global coronavirus pandemic.

During an online meeting on July 18, BSEC Chairman Professor Shibli Rubayat-Ul-Islam said, "13 out of five dozen banks have their board approval to form the special fund for capital market investment as prescribed by the central bank."

A brokerage firm official said, "The declaration by the BSEC chairman has boosted the confidence level of the investors, especially when the market is suffering from a liquidity crisis."
