The majority of Arab stock markets have succeeded in overcoming the negative implications of the military operation in Yemen.
The Saudi and Abu Dhabi stocks recovered from their losses to close high at the end of Thursday's trading.
Meanwhile, the stock markets in Egypt, Dubai, Bahrain, Kuwait, Muscat, Amman and Qatar have significantly reduced losses.
Saudi Arabia began on Thursday a military campaign in Yemen, launching air strikes in coordination with an alliance of 10 nations to restore the Yemeni government that collapsed after Houthi militants took control of large swathes of land and surrounded the southern city of Aden, where the Yemeni president has fled.
