NGX 30-Day Review: Tech & Insurance Surge While Blue Chips Stumble
The Nigerian stock market showed mixed momentum over the 30-day window, with smaller-cap tech and insurance stocks like JOHNHOLT (+20.37%), SOVRENINS (+19.15%), and NSLTECH (+18.33%) leading gains—likely driven by sector rotation and retail investor appetite for undervalued plays. However, heavyweight financials cracked significantly, with GTCO plunging 14.98% and ARADEL falling 9.68%, suggesting profit-taking from large-cap positions and possible macroeconomic headwinds affecting banking and energy sectors.
