Muscat\u2019s benchmark MSM 30 Index is up 18.5% since an April low, driven by credit rating upgrades, macro reforms, and improved performance by recent listings, including OQ Base Industries and OQ Exploration and Production \u2014 both of which had initially struggled after going public.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>(Tap or click the headline above to read this story with all of the links <\/strong>to our background as well as external sources.)<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Oman\u2019s IPO volumes had outpaced London\u2019s in 2024, but lackluster early performance <\/strong><strong>dampened sentiment<\/strong>, prompting Oman Electricity Transmission to pause its listing in March. Now, those same stocks are showing signs of recovery \u2014 with OQ Base Industries up more than 40% and OQ E&P up nearly 20% since April. The recovery has \u201crestored investor confidence,\u201d said Arqaam Capital\u2019s Rawad Kassouf. Kamco Invest\u2019s Junaid Ansari expects IPO activity to continue but with selectivity on valuations. Meanwhile, \u201cgenerous dividends\u201d yielding over 7% \u2014 among the highest in the GCC \u2014 are also helping ease investor concerns about liquidity, he added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The government\u2019s push to secure emerging-market status from MSCI is also drawing <\/strong><strong>attention. <\/strong>Kassouf said the upgrade could unlock some USD 1 bn in passive and active fund inflows, improve liquidity, and drive re-ratings. Getting there will require more blue-chip listings, bigger freefloats, and consolidation among smaller players \u2014 all part of ongoing market reforms. OQ E&P\u2019s share buyback plan might appear to run counter to this goal, but analysts see it as minor and likely offset by the recent rally.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Also in Oman\u2019s favor is two investment-grade credit rating upgrades in under a year<\/strong>, driven by strong non-oil growth and falling public debt. The upgrades have lifted investor sentiment and \u201cbode well for the privatization agenda,\u201d according to Tellimer\u2019s strategist Hasnain Malik.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The Muscat exchange has also been active in introducing liquidity-stabilization tools and <\/strong><strong>market-making programs to boost efficiency.<\/strong> For their part, Omani companies have intensified investor outreach, showing up at more conferences and marketing events. If the rally holds, \u201cinvestors will begin to see meaningful returns on recent IPOs which will help build confidence,\u201d said Oman Investment Bank ECM head Ankit Garg. He added that momentum could help the sultanate move forward with its listing plans.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">MARKETS THIS MORNING- <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Asian markets are in the green in early trading this morning <\/strong>as investors react to Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell\u2019s latest remarks signaling a rate cut in September.
