Analysts expect the Nigerian stock market  to continue on similar dynamics as in the previous week  as investments will be shaped by the ongoing third quarter (Q3) results.

The market extended its bullish run last week, on the back of favourable sentiment and strong liquidity inflows. This positive performance, underpinned by increased investor confidence and active buying interest, highlights an optimistic outlook on the country’s economic fundamentals and key market indicators.

Analysts Optimism

Analysts at Cowry Assets Management Limited pointed that the recent positive quarterly corporate earnings reports have further buoyed market sentiment, particularly in the banking, industrial goods, and consumer goods sectors, delivering strong performances from key players and driving the benchmark index closer to the 100,000-points psychological threshold.

“Notably, we think the current rally is likely to persist, though cautious profit-taking activities may create intermittent dips. Looking ahead, we see the local bourse poised for further gains as investors look forward to the upcoming macroeconomic data releases and corporate earnings reports, which are anticipated to influence short-term trading dynamics,” Cowry stated.
