Casablanca Stock Index Holds Steady Amid a Volatile Week – January 2026 Review
The Casablanca Stock Exchange ended the week at 18,667 points, a modest 0.13 % rise that masks a roller‑coaster session of rebounds and pull‑backs. January 2026 closed down 0.95 % amid weaker trading volumes, a sharp drop in shares exchanged and heightened volatility driven by higher bond yields and an uneasy global backdrop. Only the mining sector delivered a strong performance (+33 %), while most sectors struggled to stay positive. Analysts view the market as still in a consolidation phase of a broader bull trend, with February’s Q4 earnings and the approach of Ramadan likely to shape short‑term dynamics.
