NGX top gainers at the last close
Strong price moves often start here. A top gainer isn't automatically a buy: we look for stocks still below fair value, with buyers coming in, before recommending them.

How we choose the best Nigerian stocks to buy
- Momentum. The share price is rising on strong volume, a sign that investors are buying.
- Fair value. CoachOge's valuation model says the stock is still worth more than its price.
- Earnings and dividends. Profits are growing, and the business can keep paying or raising dividends.
- Institutional buying. Large investors are adding to their positions.
- A plan for every trade. A buy zone, a stop loss to limit losses, and a target to take profit, set before you buy.
How to buy Nigerian stocks
Open an account with a stockbroker licensed by the Securities and Exchange Commission, Nigeria (check the SEC's register), get your CSCS account number, fund the account in naira, and place your order on the NGX through the broker's app or by instruction. Compare brokers' commissions and fees before you start; small orders can be expensive if fees are high.
Frequently asked questions
What are the best Nigerian stocks to buy now?
Globfolio's current picks are listed above and updated as soon as we publish a new recommendation. Members see the company names, buy zones, stop losses and targets. Today's NGX top gainers are also shown above.
How do I buy shares on the Nigerian Exchange?
Open an account with an SEC-licensed stockbroker, get a CSCS account, fund it in naira, then buy through your broker. Shares are bought in units, and brokers charge commission and fees on each trade.
Are Nigerian stocks a good investment?
Nigerian stocks can grow your money faster than savings, and many pay dividends, but prices can fall as well as rise, especially when inflation, interest rates or the naira change. Invest only money you can leave invested for several years, and spread it across different stocks.
How much do I need to start investing in Nigerian stocks?
There is no fixed minimum on the NGX, but brokers may set one, and fees make very small trades costly. Many investors start with an amount they can add to every month.
Is this financial advice?
No. Globfolio publishes general research on stocks we expect to rise. It is not personal financial advice. Consider your own situation, and speak to a licensed adviser if you are unsure.
