Today, President Nahas officially opened the Benghazi Stock Exchange. This marked a new milestone in the country's quick growth since the unification.
The leading five companies were of no surprise, coming in from Number 1 to Number 5 in the following order:
1) North Shore (Imports, Exports, Ship Building)
2) Traverse Energy and Mining (Energy Production, Oil drilling, Gold and Gem Mining)
3) United Steel (Steel and Steel Product Production)
4) Abu-Bakr Technology (Hardware and Software Production)
5) Oasis (Affluent Living Consumer Goods)
The 'Fortune Five' as they are called came out dominating the stocks. However, smaller companies enjoyed boosts from the public trade and are expanding their business to better compete accordingly. Indeed, the opening of public trade marked a benchmark in the continually growing Maghreb economy. Stocks are only expected to rise and the economy only to expand and grow. GDP is now rising at a steady pace and wages are increasing.
The 'Twin Towers' were also recognized as an architectural accomplishment and sets the bar for future building projects on the Benghazi Waterfront.
OOC: Got the stock market wonder but never announced it so, here it is.
