As Nigerian Treasury Bill rates experience a gradual decline and yields continue to narrow, the equity market presents itself as a viable alternative for investors seeking better returns. Although equities inherently carry higher volatility and risk, they offer significant growth potential over the long term.

A savvy investor with adequate market knowledge and a solid understanding of market dynamics can effectively hedge against potential losses. By maintaining a long-term investment perspective, such an investor is well-positioned to capitalise on market opportunities and achieve sustainable portfolio growth.

Mixed Sentiments Ahead Of Q3 Earnings, Portfolio Realigments, Sept Inflation Data

Market Update for October 9, 2025

The Nigerian Exchange continued its recovery and bull run for the 10th consecutive trading session on Thursday, closing higher on a strong buying sentiment supported by price appreciation by highly capitalized stocks among others. All eyes are on economic data and Q3 company numbers that will start rolling in any moment from next week, beginning with early filers.

As such, this is the time for discerning investors and smart traders to reposition their portfolios by way of sector rotation and rebalancing across different classes of stocks ranging from low, mid and high caps in view of earnings power and growth potentials that will support price appreciation and high payout at the end of the day. Here, players should not worry about what the market is going to do, but how they will respond to the emerging market dynamics.

At the close of Thursday’s trading, the benchmark NGX All-Share index is set to breakout another all-time high, with the latest resistance level at 146,600.02 basis points all things being equal, with highly priced stocks supporting this recent rally on oscillating volume pattern that has been relatively below the average traded volume of the market. This is based on the volume that took the market to the all-time high before now and this recovery uptrend so far. The index’s action top pattern formation signals the possibility of a trend continuation, or pullback which needs confirmation as trading opens on Friday.

Meanwhile, position taking across the major sectors of the NGX continued ahead of the Q3 earnings reporting season as revealed by the buying sentiment in healthcare, insurance, industrial goods, aviation services and others with strong prospective of releasing impressive numbers that will influence prices positively. We note that emerging markets stocks remain undervalued, thereby attracting inflows in the midst of positive macroeconomic data that reveals some recovery and economic growth. The NGX’s intraday volatility continued as its composite All-Share index closed higher on a low traded volume and positive market internals, pointing to breakout of consolidation range.

During Thursday’s session, more notifications of closed period and board meetings to approve Q3 financials, insiders dealing updates, AGM notices and earnings forecast were received from companies. All eyes are on early filers next week.

In equity investing or trading time and timing are very important, because seasonality is one factor that will shape the market in this final quarter of this year. Despite the mixed sentiment witnessed so far and outlook of the market, the big uptrend remains intact above the T line and the 50-Day Moving Average, despite the ongoing volatility in the market and expectations.

The sustained uptrend at the end of Thursday’s trading creates bargain opportunities in the market, but investors should trade some high cap stocks with caution, while repositioning portfolios, targeting consumer goods, industrial, some banking stocks, agrobusiness, and insurance stocks. We would also add to the list, stocks of other services providers with strong fundamentals and earnings power capable of supporting price, and higher dividends payment at the end of the year. These are against the backdrop of new prices and improving macroeconomic indices, and strong corporate earnings. This is however, not forgetting the prevailing mixed outlook for fixed income instruments yields due to rate cuts, declining inflation and relatively stable exchange rate.

To navigate the rest of the quarter and year profitably using fundamental and technical analysis, join investdata’s live sessions at noon every Monday, Wednesday and Friday “and also get investdata technical toolbox and other training materials to play the current state of the market do suggest that discerning investors are gradually becoming greedy, while others are fearful, as seen in the recent trends. Despite the mixed volume pattern witnessed in recent days, it is time to shop for undervalued stocks, sector rotation, go for defensive stocks at the next insider playing opportunity.

Oil price on Thursday continued to oscillates, pulling back to trade at $65.22 per barrel in the midst of Gaza ceasefire deal and global supply with OPEC output increase weighing on the market due to oversupply concerns in the face Mideast uncertainty. Weak demand outlook in the face of production increase that may affect crude demand. Just as Russia-Ukraine war remains a major concern, as up and down movement in oil price remain also a concern, which has continued to drive volatility across markets.

Thursday’s trading started in the green and it was sustained throughout the session, despite oscillating on position taking and profit booking in blue chip companies and others, a situation that pushed the Index to an intraday high of 146,204.31 bps from its lows of 145.984.94ps, before closing above its opening figure at 146,203.40 bps.

Market technicals were positive and strong with lower volume traded, when compared to the previous session, in the midst of breadth favoring the bulls on a buying pressure as revealed by Investdata’s Sentiments Report showing 100% buy position and 0% sell volume. The total transaction volume index stood at 0.55 points, just as the energy behind the day’s performance was strong, with Money Flow Index reading 74.62pts, from the previous day’s 74.52pts, indicating that funds entered the market.

To successfully invest and trade in this volatile market for the rest of 2025, order for Investdata’s video on Buy & Sell Technical Analysis Toolbox to navigate the volatile market profitably, enhance trading decisions and boost your bottom line. Also, to up your game in stock trading and investing, understanding the key to trading price and index action will go a long way to make the difference in your trading results, check out the video materials on www.investdataonline.com.

Index and Market Caps

The benchmark NGXASI, at the end of Thursday trading gained 485.22bps, closing at 146,203.40bps, from its 145,719.05bps opening level, representing a 0.33% growth. Market capitalization also rose by N60.21bn to N92.79tr, from the previous day’s N92.50tr, which also represented a 0.32% appreciation in value.

Attention: If you have not signed up for INVESTDATA’s buy and sell signal setup, don’t delay, because the number of stocks entering their buying range has just increased to 40 as they build a new bullish base and positive chart patterns to be on our watchlist. These stocks have double the potentials to rally, considering their earnings prospects and the oscillating moves in a recovery market and economy.

To become a member, send ‘YES’ or ‘STOCKS’ to the phone numbers below. Take advantage of this service to buy right and sell right at the current recovery market in the midst of earnings season, portfolio reshuffling, and repositioning as we await an economic reform policy that can stimulate and re-track the economy to the path of growth and development.

Thursday’s upturn was driven by buying interests and accumulations in high cap stocks such as Dangote Cement, MTNN, and GTCO, as well as Caverton, Eunisell, Mecure, IMG and SterlingNG, among others. This impacted positively on Year-To-Date gain which inched up to 42.05%, while Market Capitalization YTD gain stood at N47.6tr, representing a 47.85% rise above its opening level for the year.

Bullish Sector Indices

Sectoral performance indexes were up, except for the NGX Oil & Gas that closed flat, while NGX Industrial goods led the advancers after gaining 0.67%, followed by, Insurance, Consumer goods and Banking with 0.64%, 0.46% and 0.26% respectively.

Market breadth was positive as gainers outpaced losers in the ratio of 32:21, while activities in volume and value terms were mixed, after players exchanged 346.98 million shares worth N27.42bn, driven by trades in Fidelity Bank, Dangote Cement, SterlingNG, Chams and Accesscorp.

Caverton and Eunisell were the best performing stocks, gaining 10% each, closing at N6.93 and N44.00 per share respectively, on expectation and market forces. On the flip side, FTN Cocoa and Tantalizer lost 6.67% and 3.35%, closing at N5.60 and N2.31per share, purely on the back of profit taking.

Market Outlook

We expect mixed sentiment on the back of the oncoming earnings season and profit taking in the midst of bargain hunting and portfolio repositioning ahead of Q3 corporate earnings reports and ongoing sector rotation, with all eyes are on September consumer price index reports.

However, pullbacks will create ‘buy’ opportunities amidst improving macroeconomic indices, just as more economic reforms will boost growth, a situation expected to support investment and market direction eventually.

We note that discerning investors have continued to target fundamentally sound companies and defensive stocks to protect their portfolios. Any pullback at this point may add more strength to upside potentials. As such, investors should take advantage of price rally to take profit, while also looking at the trends and events across the globe and domestically.

NGX Rally Persists Amid Bargain Hunting, Surge In High Cap Stocks, Ahead Q3 Earnings, Inflation Data

The bull-run on the Nigerian Exchange continued for the fifth successive week amid accumulation in highly priced stocks and blue chip  companies amid portfolio repositioning, profit taking and sector rotation ahead the September-end quarterly earnings reports. These, in addition to the consumer price index for the month are expected to reveal the true state of listed companies and the economy at large, aside pointing market direction.

Already, Geregu Power, an electricity generating company (GenCo) has presented its unaudited result, kicking off the earnings reporting season on the exchange, while at same time offering an insight into what the market should expect from that sector, on the back of the recent increase in power tariff which has marginally reflected on its bottom line during the quarter. Also, there are better days ahead of the sector following the recent approval of a N4 trillion debt refinancing plan to clear outstanding obligations to GenCos. Going by the plan, the government will issue federal bonds and treasury instruments to settle verified debts owed between 2015 and 2023, as part of improving cash flow, enabling them repay debts to gas suppliers, expand capacity and undertake maintenance of plants and machines.

As the earnings reporting season gets underway in earnest this week, the composite NGX All-Share index extended the previous week’s positive momentum, closing higher to set eyes on another monthly advance on the strength of the corporate numbers expected. This is also the impact of position taking during the season ahead of year-end seasaonality, knowing that Q3 numbers are very important because they offer insights into what to expect at the end of current financial year end in terms of likely payout after the share prices of many companies had hit new 52-week highs. This is especially true of companies that had beat their 2024 full-year performance by their 2025 half-year earnings reports judging by their earnings power that supports higher payout if the positive trend is sustained in their expected Q3 results. Looking at the index action and candlestick formation on a multiple time frame, the possibility of  trend continuation or reversal is evident, depending on market forces in the new week...

Nigeria’s NGX Halts 11-Day Rally As Profit-Taking Cools Market Momentum, Investors Reposition Ahead Q3 Earnings

Market Update for October 14

The Nigerian stock market took a breather on Tuesday, pausing its impressive eleven-day winning streak as profit-taking activities weighed on momentum and slowed the bullish pace that had dominated the bourse since early October. The session ended flat, underscoring a shift toward cautious trading after several sessions of sustained upward movement that pushed the benchmark index to new highs.

This development highlights a familiar market pattern: extended rallies are often followed by consolidation phases as investors rebalance portfolios, lock in profits, and await fresh triggers for the next move. Over the past two weeks, the market had posted consistent gains, fueled by increased positioning in fundamentally strong stocks, renewed interest from institutional investors, and anticipation of third-quarter earnings results.

Tuesday’s muted performance was not unexpected since many investors have been closely monitoring technical resistance levels around 147,000 to 148,000 basis points, while keeping an eye on macroeconomic indicators and the earnings calendar. As the rally matured, some traders opted to de-risk their positions, taking advantage of elevated prices to book profits. This led to a mixed trading session, with selling pressure concentrated in previously strong counters and volume activity moderating compared to previous sessions.

Investor Behaviour and Sentiment:

Market behavior on Tuesday reflected a cautious but calculated approach. Institutional investors and retail traders displayed restraint, holding back from aggressive buying despite the underlying bullish trend. Sentiment was largely shaped by expectations of Q3 earnings reports, which many expect to serve as the next major catalyst for directional movement.

With inflationary pressures, exchange rate volatility, and monetary policy tightening shaping the broader macroeconomic landscape, investors are weighing the potential impact of these factors on corporate performance and valuations. Defensive stocks and dividend-paying counters remain attractive to many, particularly in the banking, telecoms, and industrial goods sectors.

The ongoing rally has so far been supported by liquidity flows from institutional players and bargain hunting from retail investors seeking value in beaten-down but fundamentally sound stocks. Tuesday’s pause is therefore more of a strategic consolidation than a sign of weakness—a breather that allows market forces to reset before the next significant move.

Technical View:

From a technical perspective, the Nigerian Exchange Group All-Share Index (ASI) continues to trade comfortably above its 20-day and 50-day moving averages, a signal that the broader uptrend remains intact. The flat close around 147,710.96 points positions the index squarely at a critical technical inflection zone between 147,000 and 148,000 points, where previous rallies have encountered short-term resistance.

Indicators such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Money Flow Index (MFI) suggest that while momentum has slowed, the market is not yet overbought, leaving room for additional upside if buying pressure resumes. Volume analysis also indicates that the current profit-taking is more controlled than panic-driven, which aligns with a typical mid-rally consolidation pattern.

A decisive breakout above the resistance zone could spark another wave of strong gains, possibly extending the year-to-date rally. Conversely, if sell pressure intensifies, the market could retest key support levels in the mid-146,000 points region. However, underlying strength, supported by corporate earnings expectations, is likely to cushion any significant downside.

Macroeconomic and Policy Context

The performance of the equities market cannot be viewed in isolation from the prevailing macroeconomic environment. Elevated inflation, tight monetary policy, and continued foreign exchange volatility remain major considerations for investors. Interest rates are high, increasing the attractiveness of fixed-income instruments for risk-averse investors, but the equity market has continued to outperform, buoyed by strong corporate fundamentals and attractive dividend yields in key sectors.

The upcoming Q3 earnings season is expected to provide fresh direction for the market. Sectors such as banking, telecoms, industrial goods, and consumer staples are under close watch, as investors anticipate performance figures that will shape portfolio reallocation strategies. Policy developments from the Central Bank and government fiscal interventions are also expected to influence investor behavior in the coming weeks.

Market Outlook

Looking ahead, the market is expected to remain in a consolidation phase in the short term, with a mix of profit-taking and bargain hunting dominating activity. Traders and investors will likely adopt a selective approach, focusing on fundamentally strong counters with solid earnings prospects and attractive valuations.

The overall sentiment remains cautiously bullish, with many participants viewing any pullback as an opportunity to accumulate positions ahead of earnings releases. Market breadth and liquidity will be key indicators to watch, as renewed buying momentum could quickly lift the index out of its current consolidation band.

Market Performance

Tuesday’s trading session closed on a muted note with market breadth tilting negative, as 35 decliners outweighed 22 gainers. Top laggards included Fidson Healthcare Plc (-6.67%), Berger Paints Nigeria Plc (-5.92%), Ellah Lakes Plc (-3.46%), FCMB Group Plc (-2.74%) and United Capital Plc (-2.31%). Others on the losers’ list were Nigerian Breweries Plc (-1.95%), Dangote Sugar Refinery Plc (-1.64%), Oando Plc (-1.23%), United Bank for Africa Plc (-1.17%), Access Holdings Plc (-0.96%) and NASCON Allied Industries Plc (-0.80%).

On the gainers’ chart, Regency Alliance Insurance Plc emerged as the top performer, while Austin Laz & Company Plc led the losers’ table.

Trading activity slowed as total volume declined by 19.63% to 495.03 million units, while value traded stood at ₦17.32 billion across 25,607 deals. Fidelity Bank Plc dominated volume with 50.90 million units (19.40%), followed by Chams Plc (14.24%) and Tantalizers Plc (13.98%). In value terms, MTN Nigeria Communications Plc led the chart with ₦2.46 billion (29.76%), ahead of Dangote Cement Plc and Lafarge Africa Plc, showing that large-cap stocks continue to dominate trading activity.

At the close of trading, the Nigerian Exchange Group All-Share Index (ASI) stood flat at 147,710.96 points, with market capitalisation holding steady at ₦93.76 trillion. Year-to-date return remained robust at 43.51%, reinforcing the strength of the underlying trend. While the market may have paused for breath, this consolidation phase is widely viewed as a healthy development that could pave the way for another leg up once earnings season begins to provide fresh triggers for investors.

The Nigerian equities market maintained its upward trajectory on Wednesday, extending its bullish sentiment as investors cautiously rotated into fundamentally strong and liquid stocks. This modest rebound came after the previous session’s mild retreat, reflecting a market environment where optimism is gradually returning—driven by selective positioning in bellwether names across key sectors.

The day’s session was characterized by moderate but strategic accumulation of equities, particularly in the banking, consumer goods, and industrial segments. Investors continued to anticipate improved corporate earnings and potential policy signals that could support valuations in the coming weeks. Although the uptick was not broad-based, the presence of strong buying interest in a few heavyweights was enough to pull the benchmark index slightly higher, maintaining the October trend of steady accumulation.

Market participants were also guided by macroeconomic realities—especially high inflation, a volatile exchange rate environment, and the tightening monetary policy stance of the apex bank—which have forced investors to be more tactical in their allocation decisions. Rather than chasing momentum blindly, many are positioning in quality stocks with strong fundamentals, dividend potential, and liquidity advantages.

The market opened on a quiet note as traders weighed mixed signals from previous sessions. Early profit-taking among mid-tier counters kept the index muted for much of the morning, but renewed interest in large caps during the afternoon session helped reverse the trend. This late rally underscores the critical role of institutional investors and high-net-worth individuals in driving short-term sentiment, particularly as corporate earnings announcements draw closer.

Investor Sentiment and Sector Rotation

In recent weeks, sectoral activity has shown a clear preference for banking stocks, large-cap consumer goods, and select industrial names. Investors are targeting counters with consistent earnings history and proven resilience during macroeconomic headwinds. The banking sector, for instance, continues to benefit from rising interest rates, which have improved net interest margins and earnings expectations. This has made Tier-1 banks particularly attractive to institutional players looking to hedge against inflation.

Consumer goods names with strong pricing power and established market share also saw steady inflows, while industrial stocks remain a defensive play amid broader market uncertainties. This targeted sector rotation has been a defining feature of the current rally, supporting index stability despite uneven breadth.

Trading Activity Overview

Trading activity remained healthy but moderated compared to the previous session. Total volume traded stood at 389.11 million units, down 21.40%, while total value was ₦12.48 billion, exchanged in 23,017 deals. Fidelity Bank Plc once again led the volume chart with 46.87 million units traded, reflecting sustained retail and institutional interest in the stock. Zenith Bank Plc dominated the value table with ₦1.42 billion worth of shares exchanged, while Chams Holdings Company Plc and Nigerian Breweries Plc also featured prominently in daily activity.

This trading pattern reflects a deepening concentration in a handful of liquid counters that continue to attract the bulk of investor flows. While overall volume declined, the stability in value turnover indicates that institutional investors remain active and are deploying capital strategically rather than speculatively.

Volume and Value Contribution

Fidelity Bank contributed 12.05% of total market volume, while Chams and Zenith Bank accounted for 6.36% and 5.36%, respectively. On the value side, Zenith Bank recorded 11.38% of the day’s total transactions, followed by Nigerian Breweries and Fidelity Bank. This strong showing by banking and consumer goods stocks aligns with recent trading trends that have seen large caps dominate both turnover and price movement.

Technical Analysis

From a technical perspective, the Nigerian Exchange Group All-Share Index (ASI) continues to trade above its key short-term moving averages, indicating a sustained bullish bias. The index has held firmly above its immediate support level, suggesting accumulation rather than distribution. Momentum indicators show moderate but steady buying pressure, with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) remaining in neutral territory—leaving room for further upside.

The narrow breadth, however, remains a key feature of this rally. While a handful of large caps are driving the index, many mid- and small-cap names have yet to attract meaningful interest. This selective accumulation phase often precedes broader market rallies when investors eventually begin rotating into secondary names after large caps establish market direction.

Macroeconomic Context

This performance is unfolding against a challenging macroeconomic backdrop marked by high inflation, a depreciating naira, and tighter liquidity conditions. These factors have increased the appeal of the equities market for investors seeking real returns above inflation. The banking sector remains a key beneficiary of this environment, as higher interest rates improve earnings outlooks and dividend potentials.

Additionally, with the third quarter earnings season on the horizon, investors are positioning ahead of expected announcements from Tier-1 banks, consumer goods manufacturers, and industrial players. These results could serve as key catalysts for the next market direction, potentially sustaining or accelerating the current uptrend.

Market Outlook

Looking ahead, market performance is expected to remain driven by corporate earnings, liquidity flows, and macroeconomic developments. A continuation of selective buying in blue-chip stocks could push the index higher, though intermittent profit-taking may create short-term pullbacks. The overall sentiment remains constructive as investors price in potential earnings surprises and continued dividend strength from leading companies.

If the index manages a clean breakout above its current resistance, a stronger rally may unfold, drawing more participation from retail investors and broadening market breadth. However, failure to sustain support could lead to range-bound trading in the near term.

Market Performance Recap

At the close of trading, the ASI gained 0.02% to finish at 147,742.22 points from 147,710.96 points in the previous session. Market capitalization added ₦19.84 billion to close at ₦93.78 trillion, pushing the year-to-date return to 43.54%.

The day’s gainers were led by Royal Exchange Plc, followed by Transnational Corporation Plc (+4.19%), Stanbic IBTC Holdings Plc (+1.61%), Oando Plc (+1.25%), Nestlé Nigeria Plc (+1.23%), Nascon Allied Industries Plc (+0.86%), Lafarge Africa Plc (+0.54%), United Bank for Africa Plc (+0.24%) and Zenith Bank Plc (+0.15%).

On the flip side, Tripple Gee & Company Plc topped the losers’ list. Overall, Wednesday’s performance reinforced the ongoing bullish tone in the market, with heavyweight stocks continuing to anchor investor confidence and shape the broader index movement.
