STOCK EXCHANGE MARKS TIME

Wed, 3 Dec 1997 Source: --

Accra (Greater Accra) 2 Dec. '97 Share prices today ended a drab session on the Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE) static as no equity recorded changes and all market indices closed without any movement. The GSE all-share index and market capitalisation both closed at their levels of last Friday at 520.88 points and 2,669.06 billion cedis respectively. Volume of shares changing hands closed at 51,150 slightly down from last Friday's 56,420. Bids were still high at 4.4 million compared to improved offers of 767,150 against the previous session's 603,050. Pioneer Tobacco Company (PTC) continued to attract the most investor interest with bids of three million but selling none of its 47,000 shares on offer. There were bulk purchases in GCB (24,300), SSB (15,900) and SPPC (10,000) in SPPC in what one analyst said is the normal trend around this time of year. He said this because people want to hold on to their investments and do no want to move capital around too fast with Christmas approaching.
