KUWAIT stocks, the world's best performers this year, extended a rally to an 18th day, the longest winning streak in over a decade, as the country moved a step closer to a debut sale of dollar bonds. Gulf markets didn't react to a US travel ban on seven mainly Muslim countries.
The Kuwait Stock Exchange Index advanced 1.3 per cent to 6,943.24 on Sunday, the highest level since November 2014.
