Bro, pls any hint why PZ has been on full offer for days now?

Ocallen:
The mechanical markdown, as you said, won’t be much because the divided yield is small. The Company is careful and very much aware of what it is doing. They have a good management team. Let's get funds, fingers crossed.

🚨 Red corner before noon.

ARADEL joins the limit-down list (-10%), alongside DEAPCAP(DWL)

Pressure is spreading across the market, but trading activity remains selective with volume still thin. 📉

🚨 DANGCEM hits limit-down (-10%).
The NGX heavyweight drops from ₦1,070 to ₦963 in ongoing session, a rare move for a stock with an ₦18T+ market cap.

PZ, LEGEND INTERNET, JAPAUL, Oando, and ARADEL Results are still pending. NGX should put some fire for their bum na.

zendi:
It is never clear who is "Iran".

1 Pragmatic Technocrats trying to make Peace with Trump.
2 The Theocratic Zealots (Supreme Leader and other Ayatollahs).
3 Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), the elite military force.

It is not always clear who speaks for Iran.

Aradel 5000 calling!

Mpeace:
The full year result didn't bring anything different from what we expected. They only got Thier new asset just before the close of q4 so not so much was expected.
The main game should be q1 2026. That's where our interest is.
