- GSE Records GHS 13.97 million Turnover as Guinness, Kasapreko and MTN Ghana Slip
Trading activity on the Ghana Stock Exchange slowed on Thursday, June 25, 2026, as total market turnover declined to GHS 13.97 million, with Ecobank Ghana PLC accounting for more than half of the value traded.
Total volume traded stood at 1.98 million shares, with total value reaching GHS 13.97 million. This compared with 3.94 million shares valued at GHS 16.13 million in the previous session, representing a decline of about 49.70% in volume and 13.42% in value.
The session showed a market in which trading was narrower but still supported by a few large-value counters, particularly Ecobank Ghana, MTN Ghana and Kasapreko PLC.
Ecobank Ghana emerged as the dominant stock by value traded, recording 217,149 shares valued at GHS 7.31 million. The counter alone accounted for 52.36% of total market turnover, although its share price remained unchanged at GHS 33.67.
MTN Ghana followed with 573,459 shares valued at GHS 3.69 million. The telecoms stock, however, declined by GHS 0.06 to close at GHS 6.44, from GHS 6.50 in the previous session, representing a 0.92% loss.
Kasapreko PLC remained active but extended its pullback from earlier gains. The newly listed beverage manufacturer traded 589,203 shares valued at GHS 1.23 million. Its share price fell by GHS 0.13 to close at GHS 2.10, from GHS 2.23, marking a 5.83% decline.
Together, Ecobank Ghana, MTN Ghana and Kasapreko accounted for GHS 12.24 million of the day’s turnover, representing 87.63% of total market value traded.
The heavy concentration of activity in these three counters suggests that market liquidity remained selective, with investors continuing to focus on a handful of large or recently active stocks.
GCB Bank PLC was among the day’s strongest performers, gaining GHS 1.59 to close at GHS 39.00, from GHS 37.41. The gain represented a 4.25% increase. The stock recorded 1,600 shares traded, valued at GHS 62,400.
Clydestone Ghana PLC also advanced, rising by GHS 0.21 to close at GHS 2.95, from GHS 2.74. This represented a 7.66% gain and pushed the stock to its year-high level. Clydestone recorded 4,100 shares valued at GHS 12,080.
On the Ghana Alternative Market, Intravenous Infusions PLC gained GHS 0.01 to close at GHS 0.15, also matching its year-high price. The counter traded 5,000 shares valued at GHS 750.
On the downside, Guinness Ghana Breweries PLC was the biggest decliner by price movement, falling by GHS 0.98 to close at GHS 11.99, from GHS 12.97. The loss represented a decline of 7.56%. The stock traded 4,409 shares valued at GHS 53,544.80.
Republic Bank Ghana PLC also declined, shedding GHS 0.11 to close at GHS 4.39, from GHS 4.50, representing a 2.44% fall. The counter traded 10,371 shares valued at GHS 45,968.10.
Kasapreko’s decline marked the second consecutive session of weakness after its strong post-listing rally, suggesting some investors may be taking profit following the stock’s earlier rise to GHS 2.30.
MTN Ghana’s marginal decline also weighed on the market, given the counter’s importance to overall market activity and investor sentiment.
Other notable trades included GOIL, which recorded 69,969 shares valued at GHS 524,767.50 but closed unchanged at GHS 7.50, and CalBank, which traded 402,169 shares valued at GHS 331,715.41 while remaining flat at GHS 0.82.
Benso Palm Plantation PLC traded 1,238 shares valued at GHS 99,027.62 and closed unchanged at GHS 79.99.
Enterprise Group PLC also closed unchanged at GHS 10.05 after trading 10,582 shares worth GHS 106,349.10.
Standard Chartered Bank Ghana PLC, which recently announced its intention to explore options for the sale of its Wealth and Retail Banking business, traded 427 shares valued at GHS 30,317 and closed unchanged at GHS 71.00.
ZEN Petroleum Holdings Plc recorded 411 shares valued at GHS 4,114.11, closing unchanged at GHS 10.01.
In the exchange-traded funds segment, NewGold recorded 18 units valued at GHS 8,316, closing unchanged at GHS 462.00.
The day’s trading pattern reflected a market that remains active but highly concentrated. While turnover declined from the previous session, the presence of sizeable trades in Ecobank Ghana and MTN Ghana helped keep market value above GHS 13.00 million.
The mixed price performance also suggests investors are beginning to discriminate more sharply between counters that have run ahead and those still viewed as offering value.
GCB Bank’s gain provided one of the strongest positive signals of the day, while losses in Guinness Ghana, Kasapreko, Republic Bank and MTN Ghana pointed to selective profit-taking and repositioning.
Overall, the June 25 session was marked by lower market activity, strong concentration in Ecobank Ghana, renewed gains in GCB and Clydestone, and continued pressure on Kasapreko after its recent rally.
