Gemun Stock Exchange sees steady gains as infrastructure sector leads growth
31 October 5639



For a couple of months now, Gemun Stock Exchange (GEMEX) saw steady gains as the publicly-owned utilities and infrastructure firms continued to outperform markets’ expectations, boosted by the government’s intense investments in and the expansion of the transit, housing and energy programs.

Gemex’s Public Services Index, the one which is used for tracking the general infrastructure sector, that includes construction, transit, housing, water, energy and other companies, rose 5,3% over the past month, marking the highest level of the index in decades. Experts and market insiders attribute the rally to the new contracts signed by the government with the private companies, positive independent reports and the political stability of the government, which all contributes to the long-term confidences of the investors in the current economic model of Bianjie.

Ambagašan-based Credev has been leading the charge, seeing its share price rise up to 11% last couple weeks, as the government Kibōjūtaku is seeing its final stage and local governments already preparing the first wave of the newly-built social housing units for service. Another strong performance comes from the state-owned Bianjie National Railways (BNR or Kokusen), which just has recently finished the massive project of Xsa-Bia Railway (XBR), which connected Bianjie’s capital city, with the eastern neighbour’s, Xsampa, capital city as well. Despite hoping for worse, XBR was finished in time planned by the Kokusen, with its CEO, Anil Zhu, ceremonially opening the multi-billion g'an Metz-Leonid-Gemun-Gramdkarpo route. «In Bianjie, we view infrastructure not as a cost, but as an investment in the equality, accesibility and long-term stability and growth», Zhu said.

Finance minister Makata Hegiya, speaking earlier this week, reinforced the government’s approach to supporting key public sectors through market mechanisms. “We believe the public interest and economic activity can go hand in hand,” Hegiya told Radio 562. “Gemex is one of our tools—not just for profit, but for nationbuilding, at home and beyond.”

WIth Kibōjūtaku entering its final stage, and SPP-led cabinet planning more project, Gemex is evolving into a hybrid space: one where public values and private capital are interwining, and for some investors, this blend could be the thing they’re looking for, hopefully.
