T+2 Trading Cycle Will Enhance Liquidity, Smoother Experience For Investors- Cordros

Analysts at investment banking group- Cordros Securities Limited, licenced by the Nigerian Exchange Limited, on Wednesday assured clients that the T+2 (Trading Day plus two days) cycle recently approved by its industry regulator, the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) will enhance liquidity in the country’s capital market.

The new cycle which takes off November 28, Cordros Securities further noted that the improvement will also ultimately create what it tagged “a smoother experience for investors.”

On the implication of the reduction from the former T+3 cycle, the analysts explained that from November 28, 2025, equities transactions will be settled two business days after the trade date instead of the current three.

Specifically, they noted that: “When you buy equities on the Nigerian Exchange on a Monday, for example, the trade will settle by Wednesday.

“Similarly, if you sell equities on the Nigerian Exchange on a Monday, the proceeds will be credited to your account by Wednesday.”

This adjustment, Cordros informed clients, “marks a major step towards a more modern and responsive market.”

A shorter settlement window allows investors receive proceeds from sales sooner, reinvest funds more quickly, and transact in a system that mirrors the pace of leading global markets.

Sell Pressure Persists As NGX Extends Losing Streak, Index Sheds 0.70% amid Broad-Based Declines


Market Update For October 29, 2025
The Nigerian equities market extended its losing streak on Wednesday as sustained sell pressure across major sectors weighed on market performance. The negative sentiment reflected investors’ cautious stance amid persistent macroeconomic challenges, weak liquidity in the system, and global uncertainties. Market participants remained defensive, focusing on capital preservation and profit-taking ahead of month-end positioning.

Trading activities opened on a quiet note, with modest early gains in mid-cap stocks quickly reversed by losses in large-cap names, particularly within the industrial goods, banking, and consumer goods sectors. The market’s overall mood mirrored broader economic concerns — rising inflation, volatile exchange rates, and expectations of tighter monetary policy by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).

Participation remained relatively soft as the total volume traded declined by 13.81% to 452.89 million units, valued at ₦14.84 billion, in 27,654 deals, reflecting investors’ cautious approach. TANTALIZER Plc led activity by volume, contributing 12.53% of total transactions, followed by SOVRENINS (10.18%) and ACCESSCORP (8.53%). On the value side, GTCO Plc, ARADEL Holdings, and ZENITHBANK Plc dominated, with GTCO accounting for 20.76% of total traded value — underscoring continued institutional interest in tier-one banking equities despite the ongoing market correction.

From a technical standpoint, the NGX All-Share Index (ASI) continues to trade below its 20-day and 50-day moving averages, confirming sustained bearish momentum. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands at 47, indicating the market is nearing an oversold region, which could trigger mild bargain-hunting in the coming sessions. The inability of the index to stay above the 155,000-point psychological level signals weak investor conviction and a lack of buying momentum.

Across sectors, performance remained broadly negative. The industrial goods index was hit by losses in BUACEMENT and DANGCEM, while GUINNESS and HONYFLOUR dragged the consumer goods index lower. The banking index also weakened due to selloffs in UBA, GTCO, and ZENITHBANK, reflecting cautious capital rotation into fixed-income assets amid high yields. The oil and gas sector closed weaker as ETERNA and ARADEL suffered heavy declines following a recent pullback in global crude oil prices. Nonetheless, a few small-cap stocks saw renewed interest as traders positioned for short-term gains.

Globally, oil prices steadied on Wednesday as investors balanced optimism over renewed U.S.-China engagement with concerns about OPEC+ production policy. Brent crude gained $0.11 or 0.2% to settle at $64.51 per barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) rose $0.06 or 0.1% to $60.21 per barrel. Traders reacted positively to news that Chinese President Xi Jinping would meet U.S. President Donald Trump in Busan, South Korea, with expectations that the dialogue could ease trade tensions and revive global demand. Sentiment was further supported by forecasts of declining U.S. crude inventories, even as analysts weighed a potential increase in OPEC+ output quotas.

Looking ahead, market sentiment in the Nigerian bourse is expected to remain cautious in the short term as investors await clarity on domestic macroeconomic policies and fiscal direction. However, value hunters may take advantage of current price weakness to reposition in fundamentally strong stocks, particularly within the banking and agribusiness sectors.

At the close of trading, the NGX All-Share Index (ASI) declined by 0.70% to close at 154,260.98 points, from 155,353.20 points in the previous session. The downturn resulted in a ₦693.26 billion loss in market capitalization, which fell to ₦97.91 trillion, while the year-to-date (YTD) return moderated to 49.88%.

The bearish performance was driven by selloffs in key blue chips such as BETAGLAS (-10.00%), ETERNA (-8.05%), ARADEL (-7.94%), CUSTODIAN (-6.37%), GUINNESS (-5.31%), BUACEMENT (-2.78%), DANGSUGAR (-2.71%), UBA (-1.52%), and GTCO (-0.11%).

Top Gainers:
DEAPCAP Plc led the gainers’ list following renewed investor interest in undervalued financial service companies. (DEAP Capital Management & Trust Plc offers investment management, trusteeship, and financial advisory services.) ASOSAVINGS Plc, (Aso Savings & Loans Plc, a mortgage institution specializing in housing finance and property development), and OKOMUOIL Plc, (Okomu Oil Palm Company Plc, a leading agribusiness firm engaged in palm oil and rubber production), advanced strongly, trading at new 52-week highs of ₦0.86 and ₦1,080.20, respectively.

Top Losers:
BETAGLAS Plc, (Beta Glass Plc, a major glass packaging producer serving the beverage, food, and pharmaceutical sectors), topped the losers’ list after shedding 10%, reflecting profit-taking. ETERNA Plc, (a downstream oil and gas firm engaged in petroleum marketing and blending), and ARADEL Holdings Plc, (an independent energy company with upstream and power generation assets), followed with steep losses of 8.05% and 7.94%, respectively. Other major decliners included CUSTODIAN Investment Plc, (a diversified financial services group with subsidiaries in insurance and asset management), and GUINNESS Nigeria Plc, (a subsidiary of Diageo Plc engaged in beverage manufacturing and distribution), both pressured by institutional selloffs.

Overall, market breadth closed negative with 37 decliners against 18 advancers, underscoring the dominance of bearish sentiment as investors continued to de-risk their portfolios in response to macroeconomic and global headwinds

Profit-Taking Deepens On NGX, As Composite Index Slips Again, Banking, Industrial Stocks Lead Decliners

Market Update For October 28, 2025

The Nigerian equities market closed negative for the second consecutive session on Tuesday, as persistent sell pressure across major banking and industrial counters extended the bearish mood on the Nigerian Exchange (NGX). The session reflected cautious investor sentiment amid profit-taking activities and weak demand for heavyweight stocks. The market continued to experience short-term volatility, influenced by mixed macroeconomic signals and investor rotation from risk assets to fixed-income instruments following the sustained rise in yields.

The day’s trading opened on a slightly positive note, with marginal early gains in some mid-tier stocks. However, renewed selloffs in bellwether names quickly erased the initial momentum, pushing the benchmark index lower by midday. The downward move was largely attributed to declines in the banking, consumer goods, and industrial sectors, which collectively dragged market breadth into negative territory.

Investors adopted a conservative stance, digesting the impact of macroeconomic headwinds such as high interest rates, currency volatility, and inflationary pressure on corporate earnings and valuation outlook. As a result, market participants favored short-term profit-taking ahead of the month-end window-dressing period. The liquidity environment remained tight, further dampening risk appetite despite some opportunities in undervalued blue-chip stocks.

In the banking space, the sector continued to lead the market lower, as selloffs intensified in key players such as Zenith Bank (one of Nigeria’s most capitalized tier-one lenders with a strong corporate and retail presence), AccessCorp (a diversified financial group with operations across multiple African markets and the UK), and United Bank for Africa (UBA – a leading pan-African financial institution with subsidiaries in over 20 countries). The pressure was compounded by mild declines in GTCO (Guaranty Trust Holding Company, a major banking and financial services conglomerate) and WEMABANK (a rapidly expanding commercial bank known for its digital banking initiatives), as investors took profits after recent rallies.

Similarly, weakness extended to the industrial goods sector, where WAPCO (Lafarge Africa Plc, a major cement and building materials manufacturer) closed lower amid selling interest from institutional investors. The consumer goods segment was not spared, with PZ Cussons (a household and personal care manufacturer) and CAP Plc (a leading paints and coatings producer) posting notable declines on low demand and portfolio rebalancing by fund managers.

On the flip side, a few stocks bucked the negative trend, led by SOVRENINS (Sovereign Trust Insurance Plc – a general insurance firm focused on retail and corporate risk management services), which emerged as the day’s top gainer on improved market interest and low-price attraction. The company’s stock has been active in recent sessions, as retail investors positioned for short-term upside.

Meanwhile, MCNICHOLS (a food processing and packaging company known for its McNichols brand of fortified sugar and cereals) topped the losers’ table after sustained sell pressure. Despite the general weakness, DANGCEM (Dangote Cement Plc – Nigeria’s largest cement manufacturer and the most capitalized stock on the NGX) remained a key player in market turnover, attracting the highest value of transactions worth ₦4.54 billion, as institutional investors continued to reposition in the counter.

Market activity showed moderate improvement as total volume traded rose by 4.46% to 525.45 million units, valued at ₦25.40 billion across 32,430 deals. SOVRENINS, FIDELITYBK (Fidelity Bank Plc – a mid-tier lender with growing digital retail footprint), and FBNH (FBN Holdings Plc – Nigeria’s oldest financial institution and a diversified banking group) dominated trading in terms of volume, accounting for 8.12%, 7.99%, and 7.18% respectively. In terms of value, DANGCEM, STANBIC (Stanbic IBTC Holdings Plc – a top-tier financial services group with strong asset management operations), and ARADEL (Aradel Holdings Plc – an integrated energy company focused on exploration and refining) led the chart.

From a technical analysis standpoint, the NGX All-Share Index (ASI) remained below its 20-day moving average, signaling continued short-term bearish sentiment. Momentum indicators such as the RSI (Relative Strength Index) hovered below the neutral 50-point mark, indicating weakened buying pressure. The MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) also maintained a bearish crossover, suggesting the possibility of further sideways movement before any major rebound. However, market observers believe that sustained accumulation in value stocks could trigger a mild recovery if bargain hunters return towards month-end.

Despite the current weakness, analysts maintain a cautiously optimistic medium-term outlook for the market, driven by expectations of improved Q4 corporate earnings, potential dividend declarations in the coming months, and the relative attractiveness of Nigerian equities compared to fixed-income yields. Yet, near-term performance remains dependent on the direction of monetary policy and broader economic stability, especially around exchange rate management and inflation control.

At the close of Tuesday’s session, the NGX All-Share Index (ASI) slipped by (0.09%) to close at 155,353.20 points, compared to 155,496.15 points in the previous session. Market capitalization dropped by ₦90.73 billion to ₦98.61 trillion, while the year-to-date (YTD) return moderated to (+50.94%).

The top gainers were SOVRENINS (+9.78%) and other mid-tier counters showing resilience, while MCNICHOLS (-10.00%), PZ (-4.64%), ZENITHBANK (-3.21%), ACCESSCORP (-2.33%), WAPCO (-1.72%), UBA (-1.49%), and CAP (-1.35%) led the losers’ chart. The market’s overall sentiment remains bearish but oversold, indicating a potential setup for a short-term rebound if bargain hunting intensifies in the sessions ahead.

NGX Sustains Momentum, As Market Rallies On Renewed Buying Interest In Blue-Chip Stocks


Market Update For October, 24 2025

The Nigerian Exchange (NGX) wrapped up the week on a firmly bullish note, extending its winning streak for the fifth consecutive session as investors maintained optimism across key sectors. The market’s performance reflected sustained confidence in fundamentally strong stocks, supported by improved liquidity and renewed positioning by both institutional and retail investors. The persistent buying momentum underscored the resilience of the domestic equities market despite macroeconomic headwinds, foreign exchange volatility, and elevated inflationary pressures that have continued to shape the investment landscape.

Throughout the week, investors remained upbeat, driven by positive sentiment from recent corporate disclosures, stable oil prices, and expectations of improved earnings from blue-chip companies. The rally was broad-based, with major sectors witnessing notable price appreciation. The industrial goods, oil and gas, and consumer goods sectors emerged as the biggest contributors to the week’s gains, buoyed by sustained bargain-hunting and strategic accumulation of undervalued stocks.

Friday’s session particularly reflected the dominance of the bulls as market activity was lifted by sustained demand in heavyweight counters. Stocks such as ARADEL Holdings, Nigerian Breweries, Dangote Sugar Refinery, PZ Cussons, Custodian Investment, Dangote Cement, Oando, BUA Cement, and MTN Nigeria all closed higher, driving the overall market performance. The positive sentiment also spilled into the financial services sector, where moderate gains were recorded in tier-one banking stocks including AccessCorp, GTCO, and Zenith Bank. This renewed momentum, coming ahead of the release of third-quarter earnings, highlighted improved investor confidence in the market’s long-term potential.

Market activity levels strengthened considerably, with both total volume and value traded reflecting heightened investor participation. The total volume of shares exchanged during the week rose by 24.14% to 1.15 billion units, while total value traded surged to ₦30.13 billion across 29,158 deals. Fidelity Bank emerged as the most actively traded equity for the session, accounting for 71.34% of total traded volume and 53.56% of total traded value, with over 820.91 million units worth ₦6.98 billion changing hands. The stock’s performance reflected increased interest from institutional investors positioning ahead of its expected earnings release. Sovereign Insurance and Tantalizer followed on the activity chart, contributing 3.95% and 2.84% respectively, underscoring increased participation from retail investors in the low-cap segment of the market.

Among the day’s top-performing stocks, ARADEL Holdings Plc led with a robust 6.76% gain. The company, one of Nigeria’s leading integrated energy firms, continues to enjoy investor patronage following its strategic restructuring, diversification into refining and downstream operations, and recent strong earnings performance. ARADEL’s consistent growth in both revenue and profit has positioned it as a key player in Nigeria’s indigenous oil and gas sector. Investors’ renewed confidence in the stock is also reflective of a broader shift toward energy plays, following improved sentiment in the global oil market.

Nigerian Breweries Plc followed closely with a 6.43% increase, sustaining its recent positive momentum. As Nigeria’s largest brewer and a subsidiary of Heineken N.V., Nigerian Breweries commands a strong presence in the consumer goods sector through its flagship brands such as Star Lager, Gulder, and Maltina. The company’s improved operational efficiency and steady recovery in consumer spending have contributed to the renewed demand for its shares. Market participants remain optimistic about the firm’s performance outlook amid expectations of a gradual rebound in purchasing power.

Dangote Sugar Refinery Plc also gained 4.55% on Friday, reflecting continuous investor interest in the consumer staples segment. The company, one of Africa’s largest sugar producers, has continued to advance its backward integration project aimed at boosting local cane production and supporting Nigeria’s self-sufficiency agenda in sugar. The positive sentiment surrounding Dangote Sugar was driven by expectations of improved margins and steady revenue growth, particularly amid the federal government’s renewed focus on food security.

Similarly, PZ Cussons Nigeria Plc advanced by 4.08% as investors continued to take position ahead of its quarterly financial results. The multinational company, which specializes in personal care and home care products, has seen increased investor attention following its operational restructuring and focus on profitability improvement. PZ Cussons’ strong brand portfolio and sustained dividend history have continued to make it a favorite among investors seeking stable long-term returns in the consumer goods space.

On the flip side, Union Dicon Salt Plc emerged as the session’s worst-performing stock, leading the losers’ chart after shedding value due to mild profit-taking activities. The company, a long-standing player in Nigeria’s salt manufacturing and food seasoning industry, witnessed a pullback after a short rally earlier in the week. The decline, however, appeared to be a temporary market adjustment rather than a fundamental weakness, suggesting the possibility of a rebound once bargain-hunting resumes in the small-cap segment.

The bullish sentiment in the local bourse was also supported by developments in the global commodities market. Oil prices extended Thursday’s rally on Friday as the market reacted to new U.S. sanctions on Russia’s largest oil producers, Rosneft and Lukoil. The sanctions, imposed due to Russia’s continued aggression in Ukraine, reignited fears of global supply shortages, leading to an upward push in prices. Brent crude futures rose 0.2% to $66.12 per barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) gained 0.1% to $61.85 per barrel. Both benchmarks were set for a 7% weekly gain, their strongest performance since mid-June. The oil market also reverted to backwardation—a situation where near-term prices trade higher than longer-dated contracts—signaling tightening supply and strengthening demand conditions. This development further buoyed investor sentiment toward Nigeria’s energy-linked stocks such as ARADEL and Oando, which stand to benefit from elevated crude prices.

Technically, the NGX All-Share Index (ASI) maintained a strong bullish structure throughout the week. The index traded well above its 20-day and 50-day moving averages, a clear indication of sustained short- to medium-term upward momentum. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) closed around 68, suggesting that the market remains in a bullish zone though nearing overbought levels. Similarly, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) remained above its signal line, reinforcing the prevailing upward momentum. These technical indicators point to a continuation of the bullish trend in the near term, though intermittent profit-taking is expected as traders lock in gains from recent rallies.

At the close of Friday’s trading session, the NGX All-Share Index gained 0.75% to settle at 155,650.20 points, up from 154,489.90 points recorded previously. Market capitalization appreciated by ₦736.48 billion to close at ₦98.80 trillion, while the year-to-date (YTD) return further expanded to 51.22%. The positive performance was driven by gains recorded in ARADEL, Nigerian Breweries, Dangote Sugar, PZ Cussons, and Custodian Investment. ASO Savings topped the gainers’ chart, while Union Dicon Salt led the decliners. Total traded volume increased by 24.14% to 1.15 billion units, valued at ₦30.13 billion across 29,158 deals, with Fidelity Bank accounting for the majority of both volume and value traded.

With market breadth and sentiment still positive, the outlook for the coming week remains bullish, though cautious profit-taking may temper gains in the short term. The sustained uptrend, supported by improving earnings expectations, rising crude oil prices, and renewed domestic participation, suggests that the market could maintain its current momentum. Investors are, however, advised to remain selective, focusing on fundamentally strong and dividend-paying stocks while monitoring global developments that could influence oil prices, foreign inflows, and inflation dynamics.

NGX Sustains Bullish Momentum As Blue-Chip Stocks Drive Market Higher Despite Weak Breadth

Market Update For October 20,2025

The Nigerian equities market opened the new trading week on a positive note, extending its recent bullish streak and reinforcing the resilience of investor sentiment in the face of lingering macroeconomic uncertainties. Despite a negative market breadth, the strong performance of heavyweight stocks gave the market a firm footing, reflecting continued investor appetite for fundamentally strong and high-cap stocks.

The mood in the market on Monday was buoyed by renewed buying interest in key sectors, particularly industrial goods, banking, and oil and gas. Investors sought opportunities in blue-chip names, positioning for short-term gains and medium-term portfolio rebalancing. This movement came amid expectations of improved corporate earnings, moderated inflation pressures, and a stronger naira outlook, which together are improving risk appetite for equities.

Market activity showed signs of moderation but remained robust, with total volume traded standing at 415.35 million units, representing a 13.65% decline compared to the previous session. The value of trades settled at ₦27.16 billion across 31,522 deals. Fidelity Bank Plc emerged as the most actively traded equity by volume with 49.46 million units exchanged, accounting for 11.91% of total turnover. It was followed by Access Holdings Plc and Chams Plc, both of which recorded notable activity from retail and institutional investors. On the value side, Geregu Power Plc dominated with ₦9.29 billion, representing 34.20% of total value traded, ahead of Aradel Holdings Plc and Dangote Cement Plc, underscoring sustained interest in energy and industrial plays.

This strong performance was underpinned by confidence in the resilience of large-cap companies and optimism around their potential to deliver solid earnings and dividend payouts. Institutional investors were observed taking strategic positions ahead of potential corporate actions, while retail investors joined the rally to capture short-term price appreciation.

Technical View

From a technical standpoint, the benchmark index continues to trade comfortably above its 20-day moving average, signaling sustained buying momentum. This position reflects strong investor conviction, particularly in the industrial and banking sectors. However, the underlying market breadth, which remained negative, points to cautious participation as profit-taking pressures emerged in some mid- and small-cap counters.

The 150,000-point psychological resistance remains a key level to watch in the near term. A strong breakout above this threshold could signal a continuation of the rally, potentially attracting fresh liquidity from local institutional investors and offshore funds seeking exposure to frontier market assets. Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicators point to a mildly overbought territory in some blue-chip names, suggesting a likelihood of price consolidation or selective pullbacks in the short term.

Outlook

The market is expected to trade in a mixed pattern over the next few sessions as bargain hunters continue to take positions in fundamentally strong counters, while some investors may choose to lock in recent gains. Macroeconomic factors—including interest rate movements, FX liquidity, and upcoming earnings reports—are likely to influence market direction. If positive momentum persists and institutional inflows strengthen, the All-Share Index could push beyond 150,000 points, paving the way for a fresh rally into the final quarter of the year.

Foreign portfolio interest also remains a potential catalyst, especially as Nigeria’s fixed-income yields stabilize and equity valuations remain attractive compared to peer markets. Domestic pension funds and asset managers are expected to maintain selective accumulation of stocks with strong fundamentals, especially those with consistent dividend histories and strong earnings visibility.

Market Performance

The Nigerian Exchange Group All-Share Index (ASI) advanced by 0.65% to close at 149,940.81 points, up from 148,977.64 points recorded in the previous session. Market capitalization appreciated by ₦611.34 billion to settle at ₦95.17 trillion, while the year-to-date return climbed to 45.68%. This performance highlights the resilience of the market despite profit-taking in some segments.

Gains were led by blue-chip stocks. BUA Cement Plc, a leading cement manufacturer with a dominant market position in Nigeria’s construction sector, closed at ₦187.00 from an open of ₦176.00, representing a 6.25% gain. UAC of Nigeria Plc, a diversified conglomerate with investments spanning food, real estate, and logistics, climbed to ₦15.30 from ₦14.55, up 5.19%. FBN Holdings Plc appreciated by 3.50% to close at ₦34.55 from ₦33.40, reflecting sustained investor confidence in the banking sector’s earnings outlook. Oando Plc advanced from ₦14.22 to ₦14.55, a 2.39% gain, while United Bank for Africa Plc moved up by 2.26% to close at ₦31.85 from ₦31.15.

On the losers’ side, Juli Plc topped the chart, declining from ₦3.05 to ₦2.75, down 9.84%. Royal Exchange Plc followed, shedding 8.33% as it fell from ₦0.60 to ₦0.55, while Thomas Wyatt Nigeria Plc lost 7.79%, sliding from ₦3.85 to ₦3.55. The negative breadth, with 28 advancers against 32 decliners, reflects a market rally driven largely by a few heavyweights rather than broad-based participation.

Despite the weak breadth, investor sentiment remains constructive, underpinned by expectations of improved macroeconomic conditions and stronger corporate earnings in the final quarter of the year. If this momentum continues, the market could see increased accumulation in blue-chip counters, reinforcing its positive trajectory heading into the end of 2025.
