The All-Share Index (ASI) rose by 646.76 points, representing a gain of 0.97 per cent to close at 67,101.33 points. Also, market capitalisation gained N355 billion to close at N36.865 trillion.

The upturn was driven by price appreciation in large and medium capitalised stocks amongst which are; BUA Cement, MRS Oil Nigeria, Nigerian Breweries, Dangote Sugar Refinery and Nigerian Aviation Handling Company (NAHCO).

This week, analysts at United Capital Plc said: “we expect the renewed buy-interests across the equities market to linger. We anticipate investors taking positions ahead of the Q3, 2023 earnings season as corporations are set to release impressive financials. Hence, we recommend cherry-picking activities around fundamentally sound stocks with solid performance.”

Investor sentiment, as measured by market breadth, closed positive as 26 stocks advanced, while 23 declined. BUA Cement emerged the highest price gainer of 10 per cent to close at N103.40, per share. Consolidated Hallmark Insurance followed with a gain of 9.80 per cent to close at N1.12, while Nigerian Breweries rose by 9.09 per cent to close at N42.00, per share.
