- The TA-35 stood at 4,018.52 points at 14:32 Israel time on November 3, down 0.47% from the previous close.
- Banking and selected financial stocks provided support, while technology, defense and exchange-related shares traded lower.
- The index remained in active trading, with the session range extending from 3,987.20 to 4,031.43 points.
The TA-35 traded lower in the middle of Tuesday's session, with the flagship Israeli equity index at 4,018.52 points at 14:32 Israel time, equivalent to 13:32 in Berlin. That represented a 0.47% decline from the previous close of 4,037.36 points.
The level and timestamp were reported by the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange while the market was open. The index had opened at 3,993.61 points and moved between an intraday low of 3,987.20 and a high of 4,031.43 points. The change is calculated against the exchange's previous-session value and is consistent with the displayed decline after rounding.
Financial stocks cushion the decline
Trading among major constituents was mixed. Bank Leumi was up 0.93% and Bank Hapoalim gained 2.02%, while Phoenix rose 1.79% and Israel Discount Bank advanced 1.19%. These gains provided support within the index's financial segment.
Pressure was more visible among several technology and defense-related names. Elbit Systems was down 2.27%, Nova fell 2.95% and Enlight Energy declined 2.47%. The Tel Aviv Stock Exchange share itself was 3.59% lower. These individual moves describe the market's leadership at the recorded time; they do not by themselves establish a single cause for the index decline.
Session remains unsettled
The index was still below the previous close but above its session low at the recorded time, indicating a volatile rather than one-directional session. The current level also leaves the TA-35 close to the lower part of its daily range, while the banking gains show that selling pressure was not uniform across the benchmark.
Investors should distinguish this intraday reading from a closing level. The final result will depend on trading later in the Tel Aviv session. Further TA-35 coverage is available on the TA-35 topic page.
