The Nigerian stock market concluded the week ended 13th June 2025 on a positive note, as the All-Share Index (ASI) gained 812.79 points to close at 115,429.54, up from 114,616.75 in the previous week.
This marks a 0.71% gain, and notably, the first time the index has broken through the key 115,000-point psychological barrier.

Meanwhile, market capitalization grew from N72.2 trillion to N72.78 trillion, reflecting the market’s positive momentum.
