Dhaka stocks fell marginally on Wednesday as the investors went for booking modest profits from the two-day surges.
The market began on a positive note in the morning and was in the positive territory most of the session but closed negative due to the last-minute profit-taking selling.
The benchmark DSEX index fell slightly over 16 points or 0.23 per cent to close at 7,241, scaling back from the two-day rally.
Two other indices—Shariah-based DSES index moved down 4 points or 0.28 per cent to 1,582 while the blue-chip comprising DS30 index shed over 12 points or 0.47 per cent to 2,673.
