BRVM single-day trading crosses the XOF 1bn mark
Investors in the BRVM stock market demonstrated robust activity on Thursday, with a total transaction volume of 1.079 billion FCFA ($1.8 million). This marks the highest daily volume recorded in nearly a month. The focus of these exchanges centered on stocks from the Orange group, with Sonatel taking the lead by recording transactions worth 537.67 million FCFA, compared to Orange Cl's 327.76 million FCFA.
Sonatel shares concluded the session on a positive note, trading at 16,950 FCFA. In contrast, Orange Cl experienced a significant decline of 3.19%, closing at 10,020 FCFA, primarily due to less impressive financial performance.
This underperformance of the second-largest valuation on the market, coupled with a 7.07% drop in Oragroup's stock price to 2,300 FCFA, led to a 0.99% decline in the market. As a result, the BRVM Composite index now stands at 205.96 points. Following the same trend, the Composite, BRVM 30, and BRVM Prestige indices also registered declines of 1.02% to 103.56 points and 0.65% to 99.54 points, respectively.
