Casablanca Stock Exchange 2026: MASI Above 19,000 Points, Capitalization Near MAD 1,130 Billion

The Casablanca Stock Exchange extends in 2026 the rally begun in 2024: the MASI stands at 19,124 points on 24 August 2026 and market capitalization reaches MAD 1,132.8 billion, after closing 2024 at 14,773 points for MAD 752 billion. The 2026 year-to-date gain is therefore modest, most of the ground having been covered in 2024 and 2025 (historic record, +22% vs end-2025), daily average volume 380 million MAD (+45%), and 8 successful new IPOs in 5 months.
