Saudi Stock Exchange (Tadawul) Update on 20 Dec 2025: TASI Rebounds From Two‑Year Low as Oil, Rate Cuts and IPO Sentiment Shape 2026

As Saudi Arabia heads into the final stretch of 2025, the Saudi Stock Exchange (Tadawul) is finishing the year in a tense, valuation-sensitive mood—caught between supportive domestic monetary conditions and stubborn external headwinds led by oil-market weakness.
