This reflected the improved performance of the stock market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meanwhile, stock market activities appeared concentrated on few stocks making it vulnerable to swings in these equities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The access dimension captures market concentration and is measured by the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI), the share of the largest ten firms in terms of total market capitalization and the share of the top ten firms in terms of total trading volumes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the end of December 2023, the index for the efficiency dimension declined to 0.18 from 0.31 in the previous year. The decline in efficiency reflects the increase in the percentage of shares with zero returns, to 40% at the end of December 2023, from 32.25% at the\u00a0end of\u00a0December 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Stability of stock market reduced in 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, the stability dimension of the stock market reduced in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stability is measured by the price-to-earnings ratio, price volatility index, and the percentage of stocks with negative returns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the\u00a0end of\u00a0December 2023, the index for the stability dimension decreased to 0.26 from 0.58 at the\u00a0end of December 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The decline in the stability index was on account of a decrease in the price-to-earnings ratio by 29.20%, complemented by an increase in the volatility indicator by 8.18%.<\/p>\n\n                <p><strong>DISCLAIMER: <\/strong>The Views, Comments, Opinions, Contributions and Statements made by Readers and Contributors on this platform do not necessarily represent the views or policy of Multimedia Group Limited.<\/p>      \n               \n <!-- Post Tags -->\n                \n\n                        \n\n    \n                                 \n                                             \n                    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The participation of foreign investors in the equity market improved in 2023 but decreased in the debt market.
