Emaar stocks enjoy high-volume trading.
Emaar stocks enjoy high-volume trading.

Emaar has been the most traded stock by value and volume on the Dubai Financial Market Index over the last week as confidence in the group grows further following its debt rollover at the beginning of the month.

The developer’s shares rose yesterday almost 7% to 4.06 from their previous price of 3.8, continuing the rebound from a slump of the last few days to near the 4.17 reached last Sunday.

The last seven days represent more than 8,000 trades at a value of AED1.33 billion, outstripping rival Arabtec Holdings (5,391 trades at a value of AED614 million for the week) and Dubai Financial Markets (7,082 trades at an AED816 million value), which both closed up yesterday at 2.7 and 1.9 respectively.

The positive performance extends the buoyant view of the group that has evaded any significant dangers to its portfolio of construction projects and last week successfully rolled over AED4.84 billion in debt to be converted into long-term project financing.

Arabtec Holding PJSC slumped just over 4% last week despite an upturn yesterday for the construction investor.

It will hope to continue the contract success of its subsidiaries from the end of last month.
