MTN Investors Caught in a Bull Trap

Some investors of MTN Ghana got caught in a bull trap on the local bourse on Thursday, May 19, 2022 when their biggest fear of the recent gains of MTN becoming a seven-day wonder manifested.

The domestic bourse bucked up the upward trend seen in most of African Stock Markets in the last couple of days when some blue chips bounced back in previous sessions, including MTN Ghana.

However, MTN Ghana share prices came back to ground zero after crashing on Thursday, losing its entire gains made in the previous sessions, thereby erasing all the recent gains made after the implementation of the e-levy.
