Sofac stands out in a session with little index direction
The key story on the Casablanca stock exchange today did not come from the heavyweight names but from Sofac, which jumped 5.6% to MAD 495.0, the strongest gain of the Thursday, June 4, 2026 session. That move came while the MASI index finished virtually unchanged at 18,562.93 points, or 0.00% on the day, highlighting renewed selective appetite for mid-cap and specialist financial names.
Market breadth was constructive even if the headline index looked flat: 32 stocks rose, 18 fell, and 30 were unchanged out of 80 listed names. The divergence between the benchmark and the broader secondary segment was visible in the MASI Mid and Small Cap, which added 0.21% to 1,883.03 points, while the MASI ESG dropped 0.61% to 1,356.34 and the MASI 20 gained 0.42% to 1,321.84.
