The local bourse made historical moves this week as the NGX all share index (ASI) crossed 150,000 points for the first time ever and also rose by 1.5% to close at 153,736.25 points on Wednesday.
This bold move pushed the year-to-date (YtD) return to +49.37%.
The uptrend was largely driven by sustained buying interest in large-cap stocks such as Dangote Cement (+6.54%), ARADEL (+5.98%) and MTN Nigeria (+4.17%), and Lafarge WAPCO (+0.73%).
BUA Cement rose by 1.18%, and Transcorp Hotels 6.26%.
