TEHRAN, Sept. 26 (NIPNA) — The total value of retail transactions in Iranian equities and equity funds exceeded 25,420 trillion rials ($2,542 trillion toman) in the four months following the reopening of the stock market after the war, according to data from the Securities and Exchange Organization.

The data, compiled by the organization’s Research Management Department, covers the period from May 19 to Sept. 20, 2026, and includes retail and TAL transactions in shares and equity funds.

Trading activity initially remained below 200 trillion rials a day after the market reopened on May 19, but gradually strengthened, with daily transaction values exceeding 510 trillion rials on some days in late June.

The average daily value of retail transactions reached 233.69 trillion rials in June, the report said.

In July, despite continued uncertainty surrounding negotiations and the war, average daily retail trading value rose 14.5% from June to 267.61 trillion rials.

Trading activity accelerated further in August, when the market set a record for retail and TAL transactions in shares and equity funds. On Aug. 10, transaction value exceeded 660 trillion rials, lifting average daily retail trading value to 315.36 trillion rials, up 35% from June.

The upward trend continued in September, with another record set on Sept. 16, when daily retail transaction value approached 680 trillion rials.

Average daily retail trading value reached 452.49 trillion rials in September, representing a 94% increase from June, according to the report.

The figures indicate a substantial increase in trading activity since the market reopened, although the report does not provide details on the distribution of transactions among individual investors and institutional participants.
