Story: written by Zara November 20,2025
Nigeria’s declining inflation rate is reshaping investor behaviour as easing price pressures begin to influence market expectations. With inflation slowing for the first time in months, analysts say portfolio managers are adjusting their positions, anticipating shifts in monetary policy and asset performance.

The softer inflation reading has prompted renewed optimism in fixed-income markets, while equity traders are reassessing sectors likely to benefit from improved consumer purchasing power. Economists, however, caution that sustained progress will depend on continued policy coordination and stability in the FX market.
