Read on!

Five ASX 200 stocks gaining in this week's falling market

The first ASX 200 stock that looks set to finish the week well in the green is Bega Cheese Ltd (ASX: BGA).

Shares in the dairy processor and food manufacturer closed last Friday trading for $5.30. At the time of writing, shares are changing hands for $5.48 apiece. That brings the Bega Cheese share price up 3.4% over the week.

This week's outperformance is in line with the strong upward trend in 2024. Year to date, the Bega Cheese share price is up 56%. And that's not including the 8 cents a share in fully franked dividends eligible stockholders will have received over the year.

Arena REIT (ASX: ARF) is the second ASX 200 stock to shrug off the sinking market this week.

Shares in the real estate investment trust closed last week at $3.79 and are currently at $3.89 each. That puts the Arena share price up 2.6% over the week. Shares are up 5.3% in 2024, not including the 17.5 cents a share in unfranked dividends Arena has doled out over the past 12 months. The REIT pays quarterly dividends.

Shares in the online property exchange network operator closed out last week at $12.39. Shares are currently changing hands for $13.00 apiece, up 4.9%.

Rounding off our list of five ASX 200 stocks marching higher this week even as the market sinks is SiteMinder Ltd (ASX: SDR).

Shares in the hotel management technology provider closed last week trading for $5.82. At the time of writing today, shares are swapping hands for $6.30 each, up 8.2%.
