UBA also exchanged 45.983 million shares valued at N131.72 million.

In the gainers’ chart, Nigerian Aviation Handling Company Plc (NAHCO) and UPDC Real Estate Investment Trust (UPDCREIT) led in percentage gains, each closing at N28.60 and N1.65 per share, respectively, with a gain of 10 per cent each. Transcorp and Wema Bank also recorded gains of 9.99 per cent, closing at N12.66 and N7.38 per share, respectively. Transcorp Hotel made a profit of 9.92 per cent, closing at N84.85 per share.

UPDCREIT also shed 9.33 per cent to close at N6.30 and declined by 8.97 per cent to close at 71k per share.

Regarding the market outlook, financial experts predicted that the ASI might reach the 80,000 mark in the coming weeks due to a “buy the hype” trend. However, they cautioned that underlying economic factors could lead to a decline in investors’ enthusiasm, prompting existing shareholders to sell off their holdings.

Adetola Freeman, Regional Analyst at FBS Africa, highlighted that the extremely positive market outlook might cause smart money investors to wait and observe before making significant moves. Freeman anticipates a bullish run by the end of the first quarter, potentially initiating a new wave of investments. (NAN)
