Why Do Stock Prices Go Up and Down on the NGX Market

Beginner Investing

People often ask why do stock prices go up and down on the Nigerian Exchange.

In simple words: Prices change based on demand and supply, just like selling yams in the market. When many people want to buy shares, the price goes up. If many people want to sell, the price drops.

For example: If five buyers want one basket of plantain, the seller raises the price from 500 Naira to 700 Naira.

Remember:

  • Understanding why do stock prices go up and down guides your trades.
  • Buyers push prices up.
  • Sellers push prices down.
