News Report – July 21, 2025
The Nigerian Exchange Limited (NGX) has recorded an unprecedented weekly turnover of ₦500.76 billion in the week ending July 18, 2025 — the highest ever posted in a single week on the Exchange.
According to data released by NGX, this significant surge in market activity was driven by intensified trading by both domestic and foreign investors, amid improved confidence in Nigeria’s capital market. Analysts link the development to recent policy clarity from the Central Bank of Nigeria and a stronger naira outlook, which have renewed investor interest in equities and other listed instruments.
The record-breaking performance saw a sharp increase in volume and value of trades, with key sectors such as banking, telecommunications, and industrial goods witnessing major investor inflows. Market experts also credit the milestone to strategic listings, favorable earnings reports from top firms, and the increasing participation of institutional investors.
This latest performance places the NGX on a growth trajectory as it continues to attract new capital, signaling strengthening investor trust in the resilience of the Nigerian financial market.
The Exchange has pledged to sustain the momentum through regulatory reforms, investor education, and enhanced market transparency.
