Usman,
The charts for both Pakistan and India look great.

But I'm interested in a pairs trade. Long India, Short Pakistan. Long fractious stable democracy, short flailing military dictatorship that is about to have economic aid from the US reduced.

if i were u i would go long on the both markets. What you dont understand is that political events have little or no ramifications on the performance of stock exchange and corporations in the pakistan. If you go back 3 years and compare performance of KSE with political events ull notice that much more serious events(compared to bhuttos assasination) have happened......the markets took a slight blow but eventually headed UPWARDS
