Nigerian stocks hit a new milestone on Monday as a tense investor scramble for the shares of the country’s biggest telecommunications companies – MTN Nigeria (MTNN) and Airtel Africa – catapulted the benchmark index by 2.93 per cent to 43,246.87 points equivalent to a market capitalization, the peak level since February 2018.

Airtel and MTN topped premium times weekly stock recommendation published earlier on Monday and ranked first and fourth respectively of the best performing stocks of the day.

MTNN rose to N192.50, notching up 9.62 per cent in the process. Unilever completed the top 5, climbing by 9.36 per cent to N14.60.

 LOSERS
