Markets Talk is one of several original podcasts by Daba Finance, Africa’s premier multi-asset investment platform empowering hundreds of thousands of investors worldwide to invest safely and easily across stocks, bonds, mutual funds, IPOs, and venture capital in West, Central Africa and beyond.
Each week, we break down the most important trends shaping African markets — with sharp analysis of the BRVM, Francophone West Africa’s regional exchange and the 5th largest stock market in Africa.
Whether you’re an active investor or just getting started, Markets Talk gives you the clarity and context you need to invest and build wealth in Africa with confidence.
In this episode of Markets Talk, we review a mixed but opportunity-filled week across the BRVM and NGX. The BRVM returned to positive territory, while the NGX experienced a modest pullback after a strong year-to-date rally. We also cover the leading gainers on both exchanges, bond-market activity, 2026 dividend payouts and major African business and investment stories. Finally, we look at the themes investors should watch in the week ahead, along with Daba Pro and Daba Academy.
