A Decline in Cal Bank Stocks Send Index Crashing

Cal Bank shares plummeted more than 3 percent on Thursday, May 26, 2022, dragging down both composite index and financial index with it.

Ghanaian stock market main indexes fell on Thursday, with the benchmark index leading the slump; as negative sentiments still persist added to the nerves of the inflation-struck economy.

The local bourse ended the trading session with total of 10 GSE listed equities participating in trading. The session ended with one loser, namely CAL Bank, with 3.33 percent share price depreciation. However, the other 9 equities that took part in trade ended without a gain or a loss.
