The Nigerian All Share Index closed the first half of 2022 with a gain of about 21.17% year to date (YTD) making it one of the best-performing stock markets in the world.

The equity trading recorded a gain of N5.639 trillion during the half-year ended June 30, 2022, as investors continue to increase their buying pressure, especially on blue-chip stocks.

Positive sentiments had returned to the local bourse as the release of full-year 2021 and Q1’22 corporate earnings bolstered buying interests in dividend-paying stocks.

Though consumer goods stocks during the half-year ended June 30, 2022 may not have the highest earnings growth or year-over-year revenue but these stocks tend to make up for modest growth with low price volatility, reliable profits, dividends, and defensive positioning.

Consumer goods performance

Checks by Nairametrics revealed that the Consumer Goods Index (CGI) which measures the performance of the consumer companies quoted on the floor of the Nigerian Exchange appreciated by 5.89% during the half-year of 2022, from 589.28 points to 623.99 points.

Market watchers believe that they offer investors safety during recessionary climates, this is because since these companies sell goods such as food and cleaning products that consumers rely on regardless of the state of the economy, they tend to generate solid profits even in weak economies.

According to data obtained by Nairametrics from the NGX which focused on five top-performing consumer goods stocks during the half-year under review, Guinness Nigeria Plc, Cadbury Nigeria Plc, Champion Breweries Plc, PZ Cussons Nigeria Plc and International Breweries Plc made the list of top five best performing firms.

These stocks were selected based on their price performance from year to date and are represented by the percentage gained.
