MTN Ghana Powers Market Momentum as GSE Turnover Skyrockets 149%

The Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE) witnessed modest activity on January 8, 2025, with MTN Ghana taking center stage as the most influential stock of the day.

The telecommunications giant recorded a 0.4% share price appreciation, closing at GHS 2.51 per share from its previous closing price of GHS 2.50. This gain highlights MTN Ghana’s continued dominance in trading volumes and its crucial role in driving market sentiment on the GSE.

MTN Ghana’s performance on the GSE has been impressive, particularly over the past three months (October 7, 2024 – January 8, 2025). During this period, the company emerged as the number one most traded stock, with a total volume of 28.7 million shares traded.

These shares were valued at GHS 68 million, representing an average daily volume of 455,660 shares per trading session. This remarkable activity cements MTN Ghana’s reputation as a reliable and attractive stock for investors on the GSE.

The trading session on January 8 further reinforced MTN Ghana’s dominance, with the company recording the highest volume of 51,034 traded shares. Other notable participants included Ecobank Transnational, which traded 10,000 shares; CalBank with 1,606 shares; and Republic Bank Ghana with 697 shares. MTN Ghana’s trading volume accounted for a significant proportion of the 65,110 shares traded on the day, reflecting its strong appeal among investors.

Performance of the GSE Composite Index

The benchmark GSE Composite Index (GSE-CI) mirrored MTN Ghana’s positive momentum, inching up by 10.67 points (0.22%) to close at 4,900.94. This movement translated to a 1-week gain of 0.25%, a 4-week gain of 3.69%, and a year-to-date gain of 0.25%. The GSE-CI’s steady climb underscores the resilience of the Ghanaian stock market, even in the face of broader economic challenges.

In contrast to the GSE-CI, the GSE Financial Stocks Index (GSE-FSI) maintained its value at 2,383.24 points. This stability represents a 1-week gain of 0.1%, a 4-week gain of 1.36%, and a year-to-date gain of 0.1%. While the financial stocks index showed limited movement, its performance reflects underlying confidence in the financial sector’s fundamentals.

Moreover, as of January 8, 2025, the market capitalization of the Ghana Stock Exchange stood at GHS 111.5 billion. This figure underscores the scale and potential of the GSE as a platform for investment and capital growth.

Trading activity for the day involved 22 listed equities, with MTN Ghana being the sole gainer. This result highlights the selective investor sentiment and the strong positioning of MTN Ghana in the current market landscape.

However, despite MTN Ghana’s strong performance, the GSE experienced a 65% decline in trading volume and a 99% decline in turnover compared to the previous trading day (January 6, 2025). A total of 65,110 shares were traded, corresponding to a market value of GHS 148,333.94. These figures suggest reduced market activity, possibly due to a temporary lull following an active start to the week.

MTN Ghana’s consistent performance on the GSE highlights its crucial role in shaping market sentiment. As a leading stock in terms of trading volume and value, the company continues to attract significant investor interest. This interest is driven by MTN Ghana’s strong fundamentals, market position, and growth prospects in the telecommunications sector.

With the GSE Composite Index showing positive momentum and MTN Ghana leading trading activity, there is optimism about the market’s potential for sustained growth.

Investors are likely to continue monitoring MTN Ghana closely, given its strong market presence and ability to deliver consistent returns. At the same time, the GSE’s performance will depend on broader economic conditions, sectoral dynamics, and investor sentiment toward other listed equities.
