GSE Records GHS 640K Turnover Amid Declines in Volume and Value

The Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE) trading session on November 19, 2024, ended with a total market turnover of GHS 640,678.67.

This was generated from the trade of 290,834 shares across 16 listed equities. However, this performance marked a decline in trading activity compared to the previous trading day, November 18, when the exchange recorded a higher volume and value of trades.

Specifically, there was a 32% drop in volume and a 21% decline in turnover. Despite these reductions, the broader market indices exhibited resilience, maintaining their upward momentum over recent weeks.

Market Indices Hold Steady

The GSE Composite Index (GSE-CI), which tracks the performance of the overall market, remained unchanged, closing at 4,653.69 points. While the index saw no daily movement, its cumulative performance tells a different story. The GSE-CI has achieved a one-week gain of 0.77%, a four-week gain of 6.72%, and an impressive year-to-date (YTD) gain of 48.67%.

Similarly, the GSE Financial Stocks Index (GSE-FSI), which measures the performance of listed financial stocks, held steady at 2,324.24 points. Over the week, the GSE-FSI gained 0.88%, recorded a four-week gain of 5.33%, and posted a notable YTD gain of 22.23%.

As of the close of trading, the market capitalization of the GSE stood at GHS 104.3 billion. This strong valuation underscores investor confidence in the Ghanaian equities market, which has weathered various macroeconomic challenges in recent years.

Key Drivers of Market Activity

MTN Ghana emerged as the most actively traded stock, accounting for the lion’s share of the day’s trading volume. A total of 264,066 shares of MTN Ghana were traded, demonstrating the telecommunications giant’s significant influence on the GSE. MTN Ghana’s dominance in trading volumes aligns with its position as one of the largest and most liquid stocks on the exchange.

Other contributors to the day’s trading activity included CalBank, Republic Bank Ghana, and Fan Milk. CalBank recorded a trading volume of 15,025 shares, followed by Republic Bank Ghana with 8,738 shares, and Fan Milk with 734 shares. These equities, while not matching MTN Ghana’s volumes, added diversity to the day’s trading session.

The 32% decline in trading volume and the 21% drop in turnover compared to the previous trading session are worth noting. Reduced trading activity could be attributed to a variety of factors, including investor caution as the year draws to a close and the potential for profit-taking after the impressive gains recorded by the market indices.

It is also possible that external factors, such as global economic conditions and domestic policy shifts, are influencing investor behavior. However, the absence of price changes on the day—no gainers or losers were recorded—suggests that the declines in volume and value were not driven by significant changes in market sentiment.

Despite the short-term dip in trading activity, the GSE’s performance for 2024 remains strong, particularly when viewed through the lens of its YTD gains. The GSE-CI’s 48.67% YTD increase and the GSE-FSI’s 22.23% gain reflect the sustained interest in Ghanaian equities as a viable investment option.

Moving forward, the market’s ability to sustain these gains will depend on several factors. Key among them is the continued stability of Ghana’s macroeconomic environment, coupled with measures to deepen the capital market and enhance investor confidence. Additionally, improving the liquidity of less frequently traded stocks could further boost trading volumes and overall market activity.
