UAE, Saudi and Qatari stock markets rise while Cairo falls

The main UAE stock markets closed higher on 2 November 2026, alongside Riyadh and Doha, while Egypt’s EGX 30 lost about 0.7%. Reuters and The Edge closing reports agree on these market directions.

The Edge’s detailed figures put Dubai at 5,807.83 (+0.64%), Abu Dhabi at 9,490.72 (+0.26%), Riyadh at 9,882.85 (+0.45%) and Doha at 9,590.72 (+0.16%). Cairo closed at 48,403.14 (−0.70%). Reuters’ rounded percentage changes are consistent with those figures.

Reuters highlights gains in Saudi Basic Industries, Emirates NBD and Industries Qatar. The agency links the session to investors’ attention to Iran talks; this interpretation of sentiment does not establish that a diplomatic agreement was reached. The changes describe a single trading session.
