The Nigerian All-Share Index ended Monday’s trading session on 15 December 2025 almost flat, inching up by just 4.62 points to close at 149,437.9, after opening the day at 149,433.3.
This marginal movement left the index hovering just below the psychological 150,000-point mark.
Trading activity softened, with market volume easing to 553 million shares, down from 571 million shares recorded in the previous session.
Market capitalisation, however, remained unchanged at N95.2 trillion, spread across 28,907 deals, reflecting the day’s subdued price action.
On the gainers’ chart, SOVEREIGN TRUST INSURANCE and GUINNESS NIGERIA led the advance, rising by 10.00% and 9.96% respectively.
In contrast, PRESTIGE ASSURANCE and FTN COCOA topped the losers’ list, shedding 10.00% and 8.16%.
Meanwhile, FCMB and ACCESSCORP dominated trading activity, emerging as the most actively traded stocks by volume for the day.
Within the FUGAZ group, FIRSTHOLDCO posted the strongest gain, rising 9.86%.
UBA advanced 0.76%, Zenith Bank edged up 0.08%, while GTCO closed flat.
ACCESSCORP was the only laggard, ending the session down 0.5%.
The All-Share Index continues to edge closer to the 150,000-point mark as bullish momentum gradually returns to large-cap stocks.
If buying interest spreads more broadly across mid- and large-cap names, the market could break above this level and target highs beyond 155,000 points.
