Frequently Asked Questions

What does 'Top Gainers' mean in the Nigerian stock market?

Top Gainers are the NGX-listed stocks that recorded the highest percentage increase in closing price compared to the previous trading day. A stock gains when demand outpaces supply, often driven by positive earnings, dividends, sector news, or broad market sentiment.

Should I buy a stock just because it is a top gainer?

Not necessarily. A large single-day gain may signal momentum, but it can also reflect a short-lived price spike. Always combine the gainers list with volume data (high volume confirms the move), RSI (avoid overbought stocks above 70), and fundamental metrics like P/E ratio before making a decision.

How often is the Top Gainers list updated?

The list is refreshed once daily after the NGX market closes, typically by early evening. All percentage change figures are based on the official closing price versus the previous session's close.
