The GSE Composite Index which measures the price performance of listed stocks surged in Q1 2021 recording an impressive gain of 14.0 percent returns for investors in dollar terms.

Consequently, market capitalization increased by 5.1 percent in the period under review.

Total market capitalization as at the end of the first quarter stood at Ghs 57.1 billion, representing an increase of 5.1 percent (Ghs 2.7 billion).

Comparatively, market capitalization decreased by 1.4 percent (Ghs 805.73 million) in the same period in 2020. The main sectors that accounted for the increase in market capitalization were the IT (32.81%; Ghs 2,581) and Distribution (4.30%; Ghs 39.72).

The increase in market capitalization was moderated by decreases in the Manufacturing (-23.91%; – Ghs 141.74) and ETFund (-4.64%; -0.02) sectors.
