Thirty-nine equities depreciated in price higher than 18 in the previous week, while 62 equities remained unchanged, higher than 52 recorded in the previous week.

Multiverse Mining and Exploration Plc, led 50 other advanced equities on the gainers’ table by 53.42 per cent to close at N12.35 per share.

Sunu Assurances also led the 38 other declined equities on losers’ table by 36.52 per cent to close at N7.30 per share.

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.
