Securities Board of Nepal Unveils Capital Market Reform Action Plan — Major Reforms to Be Implemented by Mid-Mangsir 2082
The Securities Board of Nepal (SEBON) has unveiled a detailed implementation plan to execute the recommendations made by the Capital Market Reform Task Force. The plan was made public on Sunday following investor protests demanding immediate reforms. According to the plan, SEBON has prioritized nine key actions — implementing margin trading through brokers, standardizing ISIN issuance by CDS and Clearing Ltd, requiring listed companies to settle dividend taxes themselves, ensuring interest compensation for delayed payments between brokers and investors, and allowing investors to open multiple beneficiary (demat) accounts. Additionally, NEPSE will be directed to make company classification more objective, establish an investor grievance mechanism, enhance financial literacy programs, and set up a dedicated mechanism to investigate securities-related offenses. Most of these reforms are scheduled for completion by the end of Kartik to mid-Mangsir (November–December 2025).

How Stock Prices Are Determined — The Balance Between Supply and Demand
How Stock Prices Are Determined — The Balance Between Supply and Demand The stock market fundamentally operates on the law of supply and demand. When more investors seek to buy a company’s shares, prices rise. Conversely, when more investors sell, prices fall. This balance is the foundation of market price movements. According to market analysts, factors such as a company’s performance, investor psychology, and the broader economic environment also influence prices. When large institutional investors place massive buy orders and sellers are insufficient, the price often rises temporarily. Later, as the market rebalances, the price stabilizes again.

Asian Stocks Slip Amid Fresh US–China Trade Tensions; Markets Remain Volatile
Asian Stocks Slip Amid Fresh US–China Trade Tensions; Markets Remain Volatile Kathmandu — Asian stock markets opened on a volatile note Monday as renewed tensions in the U.S.–China trade war rattled investor confidence. Markets were already trading at stretched valuations, and the latest flare-up in rhetoric triggered a risk-off mood across the region. However, sentiment later steadied slightly as Wall Street futures bounced back. Trading was thin due to public holidays in Japan and the United States, while political uncertainty continued to cloud both Japanese and European assets. U.S. President Donald Trump, who recently threatened to impose 100% tariffs on Chinese goods starting November 1, sounded more conciliatory over the weekend, saying that “everything will be fine” and that the U.S. did not want to “hurt” China.

Wingtech Technology Shares Plunge 10% After Dutch Government Takes Control of Nexperia
Wingtech Technology Shares Plunge 10% After Dutch Government Takes Control of Nexperia Kathmandu — Shares of Wingtech Technology Co., a Chinese semiconductor and electronics firm, tumbled by 10% — hitting the daily limit on Monday after the Dutch government moved to take control of its European subsidiary, Nexperia. The rare intervention has raised concerns about worsening tensions between China and Europe over technology and national security. The Netherlands invoked the Goods Availability Act in September, citing national security risks, to assume control of Nexperia — a major car chipmaker based in the country. Under the order, the government can block or reverse Nexperia’s key decisions, though the company is still allowed to continue regular operations.
