Saudi Arabia’s index was headed Thursday for a third straight day of losses after oil slid back near $30.
Saudi Arabia’s index fell 1.1 percent to 5,769 points, confirming a break below technical support at the early February low of 5,834 points. This triggers a minor double top formed by the end-January and February highs and targeting about 5,600 points.
The petrochemical sector was the main drag with Saudi Basic Industries, the largest listed stock by market value, down 1.5 percent.
