Oman’s market cap rises as trading volumes surge
- Total value up 25% from a year ago
- MSX index at seven-year high
- Total securities traded up 180%
The market capitalisation of companies listed on Oman’s stock exchange rose year on year as the value of trading surged in the first nine months of 2025.
At the end of September, the total value of companies on the Muscat Stock Exchange (MSX) stood at $79.3 billion, 25 percent higher than in September 2024.
The total value of shares traded during the first nine months of this year shot up by 193 percent year on year to $6.3 billion, according to the National Center for Statistical Information (NCSI).
This increase was driven by aggressive buying from local investment funds and institutions, NCSI said.
The number of executed transactions was 327,000 in the first nine months of this year, up from 159,000 in 2024.
The MSX’s index peaked at 5181.62, up 10 percent from the first nine months of last year, its highest in over seven years.
Total securities traded increased by 180 percent to $13.2 billion between the two periods, driven by the financial sector rising by 42 percent, NCSI figures show.
Investors say the MSX will benefit further with more cross-listings with other exchanges around the world.

“It is encouraging to see higher values in the MSX but we also need to do more cross-listings with other bourses to keep the momentum up,” Khalfan Al-Kharusi, an independent investor in the MSX, said.
In September this year, the MSX and stock exchanges in China signed deals to allow cross-listing of traded funds on each other’s markets.
The Omani bourse signed two separate agreements with the Shanghai Stock Exchange and the Shenzhen Stock Exchange.

“Bitcoin After Dark” ETF targets gains while the world sleeps
The post “Bitcoin After Dark” ETF targets gains while the world sleeps appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A proposed exchange-traded fund is built to chase Bitcoin’s price action while the U.S. market is shut on Wall Street. The product is named the Nicholas Bitcoin and Treasuries AfterDark ETF, according to a filing dated December 9 was sent to the Securities and Exchange Commission. The fund opens Bitcoin-linked trades “after the U.S. financial markets close” and exits those positions “shortly after the next day’s open.” Trading is locked into the overnight window, and of course the fund will not hold Bitcoin directly. At least 80% of assets would be used on Bitcoin futures, exchange-traded products, other Bitcoin ETFs, and options tied to those ETFs and ETPs. The rest can sit in Treasuries. The filing said that the goal is to use price action that forms when the equity market is offline. Exposure stays inside listed products only. No spot tokens, no on-chain custody, and all positions reset each morning after the open. After-hours trading drives ETF flows Bespoke Investment Group tracked a test using the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT), and reported that “buying at the U.S. market close and selling at the next open since January 2024 produced a 222% gain.” The same test flipped to daytime only showed “a 40.5% loss from buying at the open and selling at the close.” That gap is the return spread the AfterDark ETF is built to target. Source: Bespoke Bitcoin last traded at $92,320, down nearly 1% on the day, down about 12% over the past month, and little changed since the start of the year. ETF filings across crypto keep expanding. Products tied to Aptos, Sui, Bonk, and Dogecoin are now in the pipeline. The pace picked up after President Donald Trump pushed for softer rules at the SEC and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. After that push,…

Goldman Sachs’ Kay Haigh: Fed Has Reached Endpoint of Insurance Rate Cuts; Labor Market Must Weaken Further to Justify More Easing
The post Goldman Sachs’ Kay Haigh: Fed Has Reached Endpoint of Insurance Rate Cuts; Labor Market Must Weaken Further to Justify More Easing appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Goldman Sachs analyst Kay Haigh argues that the Federal Reserve may have reached the endpoint for insurance-rate cuts, placing the next test squarely on labor market data to justify further monetary policy accommodation. Recent commentary highlights the dot plot showing hawkish dissents alongside dovish dissents, with renewed language on the degree and timing of future moves likely aimed at appeasing hawks, while keeping the door open to potential easing. Therefore, while a path to rate cuts persists, the case requires a meaningful labor market weakness to reach a higher threshold; until such data materializes, the Fed stance remains cautiously calibrated.

With XRP trading at $2.07 and showing mixed technical signals, this comprehensive Ripple forecast examines the convergence of analyst predictions and technical indicators to determine whether the cryptocurrency is positioned for a meaningful breakout or further consolidation. XRP Price Prediction Summary • XRP short-term target (1 week): $2.20 (+6.3%) – Testing immediate resistance at $2.29 • Ripple medium-term forecast (1 month): $2.25-$2.40 range – Consensus aligns with technical breakout levels • Key level to break for bullish continuation: $2.29 immediate resistance, then $2.70 strong resistance • Critical support if bearish: $2.00 psychological level, with $1.82 as strong support floor Recent Ripple Price Predictions from Analysts The latest XRP price prediction consensus from December 9th reveals cautious optimism among major analysts. Changelly’s bearish short-term outlook targets $2.09, citing weakening moving average trends, while LiteFinance projects a broader $2.00-$2.35 range over 12 months based on the current descending channel pattern. BTCC’s Ripple forecast offers the most bullish near-term view with a $2.20-$2.70 target range, assuming stable market conditions. This aligns closely with our technical analysis showing strong resistance at $2.70. The most intriguing long-term prediction comes from InvestingHaven, projecting $2.12-$4.48 for 2026, contingent on institutional adoption acceleration.
