What the record shows
Iran's TEDPIX reached an all-time high of ~4.5 million in January 2026, then declined significantly. The market was suspended for three months and reopened in May 2026 at 3.758 million—well below its peak. Throughout 2026, the index experienced frequent daily losses, not record highs.
