The GSE Composite Index (GSE-CI) surged 216.20 points to 6,992.29, marking a 43.03% year-to-date (YTD) return as the Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE) closed July 2025 on a bullish note.
This significant uplift was largely driven by end-of-month rallies in key counters, including MTN Ghana (MTNG) and Republic Bank Ghana (RBGH), both of which posted strong price gains.
The GSE Financial Stocks Index (GSE-FSI) also moved higher, climbing 4.17 points to 3,427.06, pushing its YTD performance to 43.95%, further reflecting sustained investor interest in Ghana’s financial sector.
The broader market capitalisation hit GH¢146.12 billion, up from GH¢143.46 billion previously.
But the most striking development was the surge in trading activity; volume traded on the day skyrocketed to 46.17 million shares.
This marked a dramatic 1,090.69% increase over the previous session.
The sharp spike culminated in a total trade value of GH¢207.67 million, led predominantly by MTNG, which alone accounted for GH¢163.25 million across 46.01 million shares, easily dominating the traded equities table.
MTNG closed at GH¢3.55, up GH¢0.20, securing a 42.00% YTD performance.
RBGH added GH¢1.05 to finish at GH¢11.05, bringing its YTD growth to 59.09%.
