The Chai Tattle - 30th September 2025

A brief summary of the economic market at end of day looking at indicators and metrics not found elsewhere.

The equities market hit another high in the trading day as the benchmark index hit a high of 166.5k but dropped more than 1k points by close from that high, which was still an increase of more than 1600 points but shows the volatility of the index as only 36% of the traded constituents had an increase in value.

The dichotomy of the trading sessions is apparent in the skewness graphs which are overwhelmingly negative but still indexes ended up healthily in the green. 

The concentration of the index performance on a handful of stocks is evident from the sector metrics where only the real estate sector had a significant positive delta, but the material and industrials sector pushed their performance higher.
