The 30-company Philippine Stock Exchange Index fell by 119.60 points, or 1.9 percent, to close at 6,178.60 on October 5, 2023.

“The unexpectedly high September inflation print poured cold water on investor sentiment and sank the index to its slowest in over a week,” China Banking Corp. managing director Juan Paolo Colet said.
