Prev closeCloseThe official last price of the session. The day's change is measured from the previous close, and it is the reference for the next session. Glossary: Rs 13.77
VolumeVolumeThe number of shares traded in the session. A move on heavy volume carries more conviction than the same move on a quiet day. Glossary: 82,522
TurnoverTurnoverThe rupee value of shares traded (volume × price). Pakistani market reports often use "turnover" loosely for the number of shares traded, so check the unit. Glossary: Rs 1.1M
Market capMarket capitalisationShare price multiplied by the number of shares outstanding — what the market says the whole company is worth. Use it, not the share price, to compare the size of two businesses. Glossary: Rs 3.87B
P/E ratioP/E ratioShare price divided by earnings per share — how many rupees you pay for one rupee of annual profit. Compare it only with companies in the same sector. Glossary: 8.5
EPSEPS (earnings per share)Net profit divided by shares outstanding — the company's earnings attributable to one share. Rising EPS over several years is the cleanest evidence a business is growing. Glossary: —
Dividend yieldDividend yieldAnnual dividend per share divided by the share price, as a percentage. A very high yield is often a warning: the price may have fallen sharply, and the dividend may be cut next. Glossary: —
BetaBetaHow much a stock tends to move relative to the market. A beta of 1 moves with it, above 1 amplifies it, below 1 dampens it — it measures co-movement, not quality. Glossary: 0.74
ROEROE (return on equity)Net profit as a percentage of shareholders' equity — how efficiently management turns the owners' capital into profit. Consistently high ROE without heavy debt is a sign of a durable business. Glossary: —
Book value / shareBook valueAssets minus liabilities — the company's accounting net worth, usually quoted per share. Glossary: —
P/B ratioP/B (price-to-book)Share price divided by book value per share. Below 1 means the market values the company at less than its stated net assets — a reason to investigate, not an automatic bargain. Glossary: —
52-week range52-week rangeThe lowest and highest price over the past year. It shows where today's price sits, but a stock near its 52-week low is not automatically cheap. Glossary: 13.0213.6619.84

— means not available. For HGFA that is EPS, which the exchange has not published for it; dividend yield, as no cash dividend from the past twelve months is on file; ROE, book value and P/B, which need audited accounts we do not hold yet. We leave a figure blank rather than estimate it.

HGFA share price and analysis

HBL Growth Fund (HGFA) last traded at Rs 13.66 on the Pakistan Stock Exchange, where it fell 0.80% on the session of 27 October 2026. Turnover was thin at 82,522 shares, a turnover of Rs 1.1 million, so the closing price rests on a small number of trades. Over the past year the share has traded between Rs 13.02 and Rs 19.84, putting the current price close to its 12-month low.

The price is between its 20-day (13.50) and 50-day (13.89) moving averages, so the short-term trend is unresolved. The 14-day RSI is 50.6, a neutral reading. ADX at 28.1 indicates a trending market rather than a range.

The company is capitalised at roughly Rs 3.9 billion and is classified under Close-End Mutual Fund. It trades on a price-to-earnings ratio of 8.5, meaning the market is paying about Rs 8.5 for every rupee of annual earnings. A beta of 0.74 against the KSE-100 means the share has moved less sharply than the wider market over the past year.

Our forecasting model currently reads HGFA as strongly bearish over a short term horizon, at 53% confidence. The model is computed from the price and indicator history shown on this page. It does not read news, financial statements or management changes, and it is not a recommendation to buy or sell.

This summary is generated from the end-of-day prices and indicators shown on this page and is refreshed after each trading session. It describes the data; it is not a recommendation. See how we collect and check this data and our disclaimer.

Live graded record

Too few graded calls on HGFA to quote alone. Across all stocks, 58.6% of 4,564 graded calls were right, against a 67.2% base rate. The model is not currently beating that base rate. Full record

Backtests flatter almost every model — most of all on the history it was fitted to — so treat it as an upper bound, not an expectation. Glossary

HGFA technical indicators — RSI, MACD & moving averages

Momentum and trend gauges for HGFA after the session of 27 Oct 2026, each with a one-line reading of what the number means.

RSI (14)

RSI (Relative Strength Index)A momentum gauge from 0 to 100, usually over 14 days. Above 70 is called overbought and below 30 oversold, but in a strong trend RSI can stay there for weeks — it is not a buy or sell instruction. Glossary

HGFA reads 50.6 — neutral (between 30 and 70). Above 70 is conventionally read as overbought, below 30 as oversold; dashed lines mark both.

MACD (12, 26, 9)

MACDThe 12-day exponential moving average minus the 26-day, with a 9-day signal line on top. A cross above the signal line means short-term momentum has turned up; it lags, and misfires in sideways markets. Glossary

HGFA reads -0.095 — above its signal line: momentum improving. Bars show the gap between MACD and its signal line.

RSI (14): 50.6; Neutral (between 30 and 70)
Stochastic %K: 83.3; Overbought zone (above 80)
ADX (14)ADX (Average Directional Index)Measures trend strength from 0 to 100 without saying which direction. Below about 20 the market is ranging; above 25 a real trend is present. Glossary: 28.1; Trending market (25 or above)
Williams %R: -16.7; Overbought zone (above −20)
SMA 20SMA 20The average closing price of the last 20 sessions, redrawn each day — a short-term trend line. Moving averages describe what has happened; they do not predict. Glossary: 13.50; Price is 1.2% above it
SMA 50SMA 50The average closing price of the last 50 sessions — the most watched medium-term trend line. Price above a rising 50-day average is a common definition of an uptrend. Glossary: 13.89; Price is 1.6% below it
MACD: -0.095; Above its signal line: momentum improving
ATR (14): 0.197; A typical day moves about 1.4% of the price
Bollinger upperBollinger BandsA moving average with bands two standard deviations above and below; they widen as volatility rises. Touching the upper band means the price is stretched, not that it must reverse. Glossary: 13.91; Price is 1.8% below it
Bollinger lower: 13.09; Price is 4.4% above it
Momentum (10): 0.16; Higher than 10 sessions ago
Technical score: 40; Middling, on a 0–100 scale

HGFA — frequently asked questions

What is HGFA's share price today?

HBL Growth Fund (HGFA) last traded at Rs 13.66 on the Pakistan Stock Exchange, down 0.80% on the session of 27 October 2026. The day's range was Rs 13.18 to Rs 13.69 on 82,522 shares. These are end-of-day figures published by the exchange, not a live trading feed.

What is the 52-week high and low for HGFA on the PSX?

HGFA has traded between Rs 13.02 and Rs 19.84 over the past twelve months on the Pakistan Stock Exchange. The range is computed from the end-of-day closes we hold for the stock and is refreshed after every session.

Is HGFA Shariah-compliant on the PSX?

No. HGFA is not currently in the exchange's Shariah-screened KMI All Share or KMI-30 index, so on the exchange's own screening it does not qualify as Shariah-compliant. That screening covers both the business activity and financial ratios such as interest-bearing debt, and it is reviewed periodically rather than continuously.

Which PSX indices is HGFA part of?

HGFA is a constituent of the KSE All Share and KSE-100. KSE-100 membership means it is one of the hundred companies the headline PSX benchmark is built from. Index membership is taken from the exchange's own published listing for each session.

Is HGFA expensive? What are its valuation ratios?

HGFA trades on a price-to-earnings ratio of 8.5, so the market is paying about Rs 8.5 for each rupee of annual earnings. Ratios are only meaningful next to the rest of the sector — a low multiple that the whole sector shares is usually a sector problem rather than a bargain, which is why the sector page is linked from this one.

What is the model outlook for HGFA?

Our model currently reads HGFA as strongly bearish over a short term horizon, at 53% confidence. It is computed from this stock's own price and indicator history. It does not read news, financial statements or management changes, its graded record against the base rate is published on the page, and it is not investment advice.
