Trading activity on the Ghana Stock Exchange rose sharply on Friday, as investors exchanged 7,785,511 shares valued at GHS 15,261,346.27, with MTN Ghana, Kasapreko PLC and Intravenous Infusions PLC dominating market activity.
The session marked a significant rebound in market volume, with shares traded rising by 292.87% from 1,981,714 shares in the previous session. Market value also improved by 9.28% from GHS 13,965,220.98 previously, reflecting stronger trading in high-volume counters.
MTN Ghana emerged as the most actively traded stock by value, accounting for GHS 7,972,277.49 from 1,233,371 shares. The telecom stock closed at GHS 6.46, gaining GHS 0.02 from its previous weighted average price of GHS 6.44, representing a 0.31% increase.
The performance of MTN Ghana alone accounted for 52.24% of total market turnover, underlining the stock’s continued importance to daily liquidity on the exchange.
Kasapreko PLC followed with 2,421,114 shares valued at GHS 4,821,524.77, making it the second-largest contributor to market turnover. The stock, however, extended its recent pullback, closing at GHS 1.99 from a previous closing price of GHS 2.10.
That represented a decline of GHS 0.11, or 5.24%, despite strong investor activity in the counter.
Together, MTN Ghana and Kasapreko accounted for GHS 12,793,802.26, representing 83.83% of total market turnover.

MTN Ghana’s 0.31% gain and IIL’s 6.67% rise also supported the market during a session in which several key counters remained unchanged.
Among financial stocks, GCB Bank PLC closed unchanged at GHS 39.00 after trading 1,532 shares valued at GHS 59,748.00. Standard Chartered Bank Ghana PLC also remained flat at GHS 71.00, with 80 shares traded for GHS 5,674.50.
Ecobank Ghana PLC closed unchanged at GHS 33.67 after recording 2,898 shares worth GHS 97,575.66, while Republic Bank Ghana PLC held steady at GHS 4.39 on 14,000 shares valued at GHS 58,980.00.

The day’s trading pattern showed a market heavily concentrated in a few counters. MTN Ghana, Kasapreko, CAL Bank, ETI and IIL together accounted for 94.86% of total market turnover, reinforcing the narrow liquidity structure that continues to define daily activity on the local bourse.
By volume, IIL led the market with 37.64% of all shares traded, followed by Kasapreko with 31.10%, MTN Ghana with 15.84% and CAL Bank with 11.62%.
Friday’s session therefore reflected stronger investor participation, but also showed mixed price movement across major counters.
MTN Ghana’s recovery helped lift turnover, while Kasapreko’s continued decline signalled ongoing price adjustment in one of the exchange’s newest and most actively watched listings.
ZEN Petroleum’s sharp gain provided a notable positive price signal, while IIL’s activity on the Ghana Alternative Market added depth to the day’s volume performance.
Overall, the market closed the week with improved liquidity, higher turnover and strong concentration in telecoms, beverages, banking and healthcare-related counters.
