Ghanaian Stocks Likely to Plummet As Fears of Out of Control Inflation Creeps Investors- Analyst

Ghana’s equity market posted some gains in Thursday’s trading session stemming from a rally in Societe Generale Ghana PLC (SOGEGH) stock, consequently leading to noteworthy moves by the two main benchmark indices.

At the end of the trading day, 17 GSE listed equities participated in trading, ending with only one gainer, namely Societe Generale Ghana, with 9.59% share price appreciation. The other 16 equities recorded no price movement as there was no loser on the day.

SOGEGH closed its trading day (Thursday, August 3, 2023) at GHS0.80 per share on the Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE), recording a 7 pesewa gain over its previous closing price of GHS0.73. Societe Generale began the year with a share price of GHS1.00 but has since lost 20% off that price valuation, ranking it 34th on the GSE in terms of year-to-date performance. Shareholders’ fears may be allayed by the 31% increase of SOGEGH share price since July 6, which is best on GSE.

At the end of Tuesday’s trading session on the Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE), a total of 179,136 shares, corresponding to a market value of GHS 262,234.11, were traded. Compared with the previous GSE trading day (Wednesday, August 2), Thursday’s data showed 58% decline in volume and 60% decline in turnover.

At the end of the session, SOGEGH’s gains has contributed to the rise of the benchmark GSE-Composite Index. The Composite Index (GSE-CI) inched by 4.57 (0.15%) points to close the trading week at 3,127.43 points, reflecting a 27.97% YTD return.
