The All Share Index (ASI) gained by 132.13 points, representing a growth of 0.22 per cent to close at 59,335.88 points. Also, market capitalisation gained N72 billion to close at N32.309 trillion.

The upturn was impacted by gains recorded in medium and large capitalised stocks, amongst which are; BUA Cement, Transcorp Hotel, PZ Cussons Nigeria, Eterna and Guaranty Trust Holding Company (GTCO).

This week, United Capital Plc said: “we expect the positive sentiments toward listed corporates to continue. This is hinged on the suppressed yield environment in the fixed-income market, making the local bourse a more attractive option for investors, particularly as foreign participation on the floor of the Exchange continues to improve.”

As measured by market breadth, market sentiment was positive as 46 stocks gained relative to 23 losers. Academy Press, Associated Bus Company, Ikeja Hotel, Tantalizers, Thomas Wyatt Nigeria and Transcorp Hotel recorded the highest price gain of 10 per cent each to close at N2.20, 44 kobo, N3.30, 22 kobo, N1.43 and 19.36 respectively, per share.
