Manila — Philippine stocks climbed higher in today’s trading session, with the Philippine Stock Exchange index (PSEi) posting a solid gain as buying interest returned to most sectors of the market.
As of 1:41 p.m. on January 22, 2026, the PSEi rose to 6,380.70, up 50.60 points or 0.80 percent. The broader All Shares Index also advanced, gaining 0.52 percent to 3,615.27, signaling a generally upbeat mood among investors.
Sector performance was largely positive, led by Holding Firms, which jumped 1.30 percent, followed by Financials, up 0.95 percent, and Industrial stocks, which gained 0.72 percent. Property and Services also ended in the green, adding to the market’s overall strength.
The rally was supported by broad-based buying, with investors showing renewed confidence across key sectors after recent cautious sessions.
However, Mining and Oil stocks bucked the trend, sliding 1.91 percent, making it the lone sector to close in negative territory. The pullback in resource stocks slightly tempered gains but failed to derail the market’s upward momentum.
Market watchers say today’s advance reflects improving sentiment, as investors selectively reposition ahead of upcoming economic and corporate developments.
