Ghana Stock Exchange turnover surged on Monday, June 22, 2026, as a heavy block of trades in Kasapreko PLC powered a sharp rebound in market activity and pushed total turnover to GHS 48.92 million.
Official data from trading session 7237 showed 18.81 million shares changed hands, valued at GHS 48.92 million. That compares with 2.45 million shares worth GHS 17.15 million in the previous session, marking a 667.65% jump in volume and a 185.20% rise in value traded.
The spike signalled a major upswing in liquidity after the relatively moderate turnover recorded on June 19, even though the day’s activity remained concentrated in a few counters.
Kasapreko PLC was the clear driver of the market rebound, trading 15.80 million shares valued at GHS 33.17 million. The newly listed beverage company accounted for 83.96% of total volume and 67.81% of the day’s total value, underscoring strong investor appetite for the stock and the influence of large single counter trades on headline market figures.
Kasapreko closed at GHS 2.10, up from its previous volume weighted average price close of GHS 1.91. The gain of GHS 0.19, equivalent to 9.95%, pushed the counter to a new year high and extended the strong attention it has attracted since listing.
With the stock now trading between a year low of GHS 1.20 and a year high of GHS 2.10, the latest session suggests demand remains firm, particularly among investors seeking exposure to the consumer goods and beverage segment of the local equities market.
MTN Ghana adds liquidity as ZEN supports value traded
MTN Ghana followed as the second most traded stock by value, recording 1.67 million shares worth GHS 10.77 million.
The telecoms counter closed at GHS 6.45, up by GHS 0.04 from its previous close of GHS 6.41, a gain of 0.62%. MTN accounted for 8.87% of total volume and 22.01% of total market value, reinforcing its role as one of the most liquid stocks on the Accra bourse.
ZEN Petroleum Holdings Plc also posted notable activity, trading 240,050 shares valued at GHS 2.40 million. The stock edged up by GHS 0.01 to close at GHS 10.01, a 0.10% gain.
Together, Kasapreko, MTN Ghana and ZEN Petroleum accounted for GHS 46.34 million, or 94.72% of total market value traded, highlighting that the day’s strong headline performance was driven by narrow leadership rather than broad based participation.
Beyond the biggest drivers, CAL Bank traded 881,852 shares valued at GHS 722,038.53 but closed unchanged at GHS 0.82. GCB Bank recorded 18,470 shares worth GHS 664,920.00 and also ended flat at GHS 36.00.
Trading in some financial counters, however, was marked by sharp declines. Ecobank Ghana fell by GHS 3.90 to close at GHS 35.10, a 10.00% drop, after 10,030 shares worth GHS 354,689.40 traded.

The NewGold ETF recorded 19 units traded valued at GHS 8,778.00 and closed flat at GHS 462.00, while no trades were recorded on the Ghana Alternative Market.
The session opened the week with strong turnover, but the trading pattern showed that sustainability will depend on whether activity broadens beyond a small cluster of dominant stocks that can lift market numbers in a single day.
