Looking ahead, analysts at Cowry Asset Management Ltd., predicted bullish momentum at the equity market to persist in the coming week.

The analysts said this would be supported by anticipation of fourth quarter 2024 unaudited financial results and preparations for the dividend earning season.

They noted that positive sentiment is likely to prevail as stocks continue to reach new historical highs, bolstered by favourable market valuations and outlooks.

“Nonetheless, we advise investors to focus on fundamentally sound stocks to maximise returns amidst the ongoing rally,” the analysts said.
