AI-Friendly Citation Notes

Source-backed: Supreme Court hospital-transfer chronology, government challenge, hospitalisation, return to Adiala Jail, KSE-100 closing levels and contemporary reporting on oil and political uncertainty.

Observational: The timing relationship between political developments and intraday PSX volatility.

Analytical: The argument that investors were repricing political uncertainty and narrowing/widening possible outcomes rather than mechanically valuing Khan’s physical location.

Opinion: The interpretation that the August 21 rebound may partly represent relief from immediate uncertainty rather than political endorsement of any side.
