The country’s benchmark index was the second best performer last week and ranked third overall since the start of this year, with a growth of nearly 41 percent, behind only Mongolia and Argentina, according to Bloomberg’s data.

Growth is driven by investors’ expectations that the market will maintain the upward trend through to year-end with a target of 1,000 points.

The trading value averaged 200 billion USD per session last week, up 6.5 percent over the previous week. Money has begun spreading to small and mid-cap companies instead of focusing on several blue chips.
