Israel says they are not bound by whatever Agreeent Iran has with US. For there to be peace in Lebanon, it must involve the parties to the conflict. Is Iran a party to the conflict in Lebanon? Answer that question.

If Israel keeps destroying Lebanon, then Iran keeps the Strait closed. If that is not enough, it activates the Houthis and disrupts the other route through the Red Sea. If the situation worsens, Iran starts launching direct attacks on Israel, and the war continues. It is as simple as that.

Whether Israel is part of the deal at this point does not matter. Iran has taken its stand.

Iran is arguably stronger now, thanks to the unjustified attack by the U.S. and Israel in February. I asked you before: what did Iran do to Israel or the U.S. that caused them to attack first? You could not answer.

Do countries simply wake up and attack another country because they think it might be building nuclear weapons?

The U.S. is taken heavy blows(economically and physically), and that is the only plausible reason it now wants peace. It was not like this during Iraq or Afghanistan. Something clearly shook the Americans.

So, my friend, the war continues.

What do you mean by 'using Hezbolla to attack Israel?' Hezbollah started asa rsistant group to Israeli occupation of Southern Lebanon. Iran is supporting them as part of its so-called 'axis of resistance."

mikeapollo:
Yes, I just want @Osutadima and other supporters of Iran to confess that Iran is the one sponsoring and using Hezbollah to attack Israel.

Iran first attacked Israel in 2024 by launching about 400 missiles at Israel. They claimed they were retaliating for the death of Hamas' Ishmael Haniyeh who was killed in a bomb blast in Tehran, inside Iran. Israel said at the time that they would respond in a manner and at time that they would decide. So Iran brought the war unto itself.
Sponsoring and supplying weapons to Hezbollah (a non-state, terrorist organization) to attack Israel is enough grounds for Israel to attack them.
Israel does not give a damn about the Strait of Hormuz.
It is Donald Trump that does not want the price of crude oil to climb too high, that is why he wants the Strait open.
Lebanon cannot be a safe haven for terrorists Hezbollah to launch attacks at Israel.

No, you are wrong. Iran attacked Israel in April 2024, several days after the 1 April 2024 strike on the Iranian consulate building in Damascus, Syria, which killed several senior Iranian officers, including high-ranking IRGC commanders.

If you can't get this one fact right, how many of the things you know and think are right are actually wrong? Just food for thought.

Someone mentioned something here about MTN being acquired 🤨

If you are using charts like the one on Investing.com the closing price is not N55. That is because they don't catch prices of trades done after 15:55 hours immediately. You need to check sites like TRW-stockbrokers.com that report actual NGX price list. If you also check Morgan's eTrade you would have seen details of actual individual trades which clearly shows the cross trades at N55 done late and recorded as executed at 1600 hrs. The closing price on NGX is determined only by the NGX rule of the last single trade of 100k volume.

ositadima1:
I don't think you read that very well. It only traded ₦578 million on Friday, and it actually averages more than twice that amount. The day before, it traded over ₦7 billion.

I don't think it closed at ₦55 because a cross deal wanted to push the price down that Friday. I think it was more likely due to a few secondary reasons:

1. There were not enough buyers that Friday.
2. Sellers were more aggressive and willing to accept lower prices.
3. Just general bad market.

But I'm not saying it won't recover.

Iran also attacked Israel in Oct2024 in retaliation for the death of Hamas terrorist Ishmail Haniyeh who was kil)ed in Tehran, inside Iran
If you dont know this, then I give up.

So April 2024 and Oct2024, Iran attacked Israel. So Israel has the right to respond however they decide to.

Politics can't be separated from economy 😔

The whole talk here is lran-USA conflict over and over again.Some people just keep derailing the capital market discussion.There are forums for politics on Nairaland,click there and share your views.lt is that simple.

It may be okay to discuss tangential topics after market hours or during weekends and holidays. It’s just about people having the discipline to know when to draw the line.

PETERICHY will say bargain hunters should quickly rush into OANDO, JAPAUL and THOMAS WY

The thread has really derailed, from wannabe political activists to religious activists, you can hardly get any information on stocks again, the moderator in this forum is really sleeping or complacent

It is extremely annoying...these positions has nothing to do with US and Iran war as it has to do with Oil prices....it is simply outright derailing of the thread and it is getting boring to be honest.

Now you can scroll through pages without seeing anything tangible on stock picks. It is just constant derailing of this thread at this point.

But it's not possible to remove them on Nairaland. If this was WhatsApp, Facebook, or Telegram, it would have been easy for me to remove them immediately.

The same gold that has not been discovered abi another one?

The same gold that has not impacted the price of Japaul abi another type of gold?

Nothing concerns Japaul with the price of gold at the moment. They need to start producing the actual gold first.

Hezbollah has been attacking Israel for several years even when Israel was not in Lebanon? What do you say about that?
The truth is, Hezbollah is Iran's proxy to fight and destroy Israel. Period!

I am waiting to reload JAPAUL again during a major dump... I have less than 15% at the moment... I offloaded loads at 4+

Is there any hope for a bullish run? JAPAUL is really uninspiring.

WHAT WILL THE MARKET DO TODAY??
We expect some slight Optimism in the market as a follow up of the good result from one of the good oil stocks.

For Oil price, we should know that no big price spike will likely come up again, IRAN trying to play game with the whole world oil supply pathway will start attracting opposition from ofher Nations that have not shown any interest previously on the matter, the concession from the US is likely to be the best possible at the moment. However, for Nigeria oil sector the peace deal has no effect on likely better performance for 2026.

OANDO's result will also drop any moment from now, the report on the surface may not be fantastic, but looking under the veil, it will still be a good one, but the future performance for OANDO is shacky.

The stock market fell for the sixth day in a row. The main index dropped 1,463 points to close at 235,941. Market value fell to 151.33 trillion Naira.

Market value: 151.33 trillion Naira
Weekly change: down 3.59%
Breadth: 21 winners, 31 losers
Oil price: 80.38 dollars per barrel

SECTION 3 – WHY THE MARKET MOVED

1. More sellers than buyers
Several stocks closed with huge sell orders and no buyers. Some stocks like XXXX had zero buy orders at the close. On the other hand, XXXX and XXXX had huge buy orders waiting, meaning institutions wanted more shares than were available.
2. Where big money moved
Institutions sold bank stocks (XXXX, XXXX, XXXX) and insurance stocks (XXXX, XXXX) heavily. The money flowed directly into energy stocks (XXXX, XXXX) and mid-cap turnaround plays (XXXX, XXXX, XXXX).
3. Big volume on down days
XXXX had the highest volume of the day at 35 million shares, but the stock dropped nearly 5% – a classic sign of big investors selling. XXXX also saw heavy volume and dropped nearly 10%. On the buying side, XXXX and XXXX both saw volume spikes with positive price moves, confirming big investors were buying.
4. Reversals and breakdowns
XXXX fell another 7.5% and is now down 16% from its June 11 high. XXXX dropped nearly 10% to 115.55, its lowest level in weeks. XXXX reversed sharply from 4.45 to 4.89 on strong volume, confirming buyers have taken control after heavy selling.
5. Risk mode is fully on
The market has now fallen for six sessions in a row. The index has lost over 8,000 points from its June 11 high. All new positions should be reduced to 30% of normal size.

XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX

Stocks to watch (rotation watchlist):
XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX

Focus stocks: XXXX, XXXX
FPI selling: ACCESS, XXXX. Around the time that the Minister of Finance was changed, FPIs that are Equity specialists have been selling. And unfortunately for Nigeria, the start of the peace deals made Nigeria unattractive couple with better returns available in other emerging markets plus the US technology stocks delivering the best performance in recent times, Nigeria Government need to embark on investment promotion continuously to see if foreign investors will take risk on the Country?
