How Pakistan made the world over 3 trillion dollars richer
On April 7, the world edged toward Trump's 8pm ultimatum that "a whole civilization will die tonight." By mid-afternoon, Polymarket gave less than a 5% chance for a ceasefire. But then in a flurry of last-minute diplomacy led by Pakistan's PM Shehbaz Sharif, ceasefire odds shifted from near-impossibility to 100%, as both U.S. and Iranian leadership publicly acknowledged the important role played by Pakistan.
The sharp shift in probability of ceasefire from near-zero to certainty, allows us to estimate cleanly the market value of Pakistan's successful diplomacy. There was a sharp jump of 2.9% in S&P500 around the ceasefire announcement. The reaction was similar the world over.
Global markets represent about $125T, so a 2.9% jump represents a gain of 3.6 trillion dollars for the world. Pakistan helped create TEN times its own GDP for the world!
For me, the best part is not the trillions of dollar, but seeing Pakistan on the world stage as a peace maker.
I hope Pakistan runs with this new identity by promoting peace not only abroad, but also at home. That means moving away from politics of division and exclusion, and treating every citizen as its own.
World’s biggest graveyard: KARACHI
I don’t understand why Karachiites are marking themselves safe in the #GulPlazaFire.
On the contrary, Karachi had burnt long ago.
We are counting breaths in our graves.
With the Grace of Allah Almighty, Pakistan has been elected to the UN Human Rights Council for the term 2026-28 with an overwhelming majority.
My profound gratitude to all UN Member States for their support!
Pakistan's election is a recognition of its strong credentials and contributions in strengthening the global human rights framework.
Pakistan reiterates its commitment to work with the international community
on the basis of TRUCE: tolerance, respect, universality, consensus-building, and engagement.
Are we humans or demons???
Humanity is questionable in this society.
Mental Health Test has become inevitable before Marriage.
Government must take rapid action on this inhuman act.
