Casablanca Stock Exchange hits 1.12 trillion dirham market cap

The Casablanca Stock Exchange has reached a significant milestone, with total market capitalization exceeding 1.12 trillion dirhams. On August 19, 2026, the MASI benchmark index rose by 0.73% to 18,992.4 points.

Managem has emerged as a primary driver of this growth, setting a new record with its market capitalization surpassing 224 billion dirhams. The mining group's performance is bolstered by increased production capacities at the Tizert and Boto projects, alongside high global commodity prices, particularly gold. Managem reported a 166% increase in consolidated revenue for the first half of 2026, reaching 11.764 billion dirhams.

Other notable market activity included high trading volumes from Itissalat Al-Maghrib and LabelVie. While the retail sector saw a surge of 3.27%, the beverage and oil and gas sectors experienced declines during the same period.
