Tehran Stock Exchange resumed its transactions today, Tuesday, after an 80-day halt due to the war waged by the United States and Israel against Iran.


The first trading sessions of the new fiscal year 1405 Hijri Shamsi (2026) launched inside the Tehran Stock Exchange hall, in a step described as an indicator of a gradual attempt to restore financial activity.


Iranian television said that trading was resumed for shares of a number of companies, including banks and car manufacturing companies, and the television added that trading was not resumed for more than 40 companies affected by the war, mostly in the chemical and basic metals sectors.


In contrast, today's session witnessed the presence of indicators for the banking and automotive sectors, and a number of leveraged funds were reopened, with strict restrictions imposed on selling operations, as a maximum selling limit was set at 100 thousand units only per fund.
