TEHRAN (Press TV) - Tehran Stock Exchange's main index – TEDPIX – broke an all-time high record in Wednesday trading by surging into the 93,000 lane.
TEDPIX gained 654 points to stand at 93,283 – a level never seen in the Exchange’s history since establishment in 1966.
The bulk of the growth was provided by industrial giants such as Tamin Petroleum and Petrochemical Investment Company, Ghadir Investment Company and Foolad Khouzestan Steel Company that made 126, 102 and 70 points, respectively.

Petrochemical players collectively had a positive performance and were responsible for trading about 78 million shares with a total value of around Rials 240 billion ($5.7 million). The auto majors, on the other hand, were mostly on the losing side and saw as much as 219 million of their shares worth a collective of Rials 350 billion ($8.3 million) sold by traders. Base metal producers were in the middle ground and eventually saw sales of 197 million shares worth Rials 540 billion ($12.8 million).
