The Nigerian equities market maintained its bullish momentum as overall capitalisation advanced to N158.399 trillion. The All-Share Index gained 1,005.27 points, a growth of 0.41 per cent, to close at 244,304.51 points, while market capitalisation rose by N652 billion. The upturn was driven by gains in medium and large capitalised stocks including Aradel Holdings, Nigerian Exchange Group, HBM Nigeria, Nigerian Breweries and Zenith Bank. Cowry Assets Management Limited said it expects the bullish sentiment to persist into Wednesday's trading session, supported by sustained investor interest and positive market breadth, with 34 stocks advancing against 26 decliners.
