Unrest impacts stock market
The strikes, violence, and turbulence of the past several months have slowed down the transactions in the stock market, and both individual and institutional investors are now reluctant to invest in this vulnerable market. In recent days, the Dhaka Stock Exchange General Index has plummeted alarmingly. There is no reason to believe that the ongoing political turmoil will end soon and so investors are reluctant to make new investments. Political stability and violence-free environment are prerequisite for keeping the market stable.
For the greater interest of the country's economic growth, the political parties should avoid hartals, violence, strikes etc. Political parties must think of alternative ways of protest.
