Market capitalisation gained N137 billion to close at N28.1 trillion as against the N27.963 trillion posted at the last trading session on Thursday.

The All-Share Index rose by 250.75 points or an increase of 0.49 per cent to close at 51,606.49 points from 51,355.74 points recorded on Thursday.

The market gain was driven by price appreciation in large and medium capitalised stocks amongst which are MTN Nigeria Communications, Stanbic IBTC Holdings, Unilever Nigeria, Berger Paints and Access Holdings.

A broker stated that: “we expect bullish sentiments to resurface as investors look to take advantage of fundamentally sound stocks with low pricing, with the first quarter of 2023 earning season already underway.

“However, we see room for pockets of profit-taking activities.’’

Japaul Gold & Ventures recorded the highest price gain of 10 per cent to close at 33k per share.

Honeywell Flour Mills followed with a gain of 9.91 per cent to close at N2.55, while Berger Paints gained 9.87 per cent to close at N8.35 per share.
