Movers & Shakers: April 21, 2017


Botswana: DCI +0.25%, USD 589k

Not the worst end to the week in Gaborone thanks to a cross in letshego as 2.1m shares changed hands.

Kenya: NSE 20 -0.66%, USD 3.1m

A rather slow day to close off the week in Nairobi with some action in EABL ($1.6m) the only name worth mentioning as the brewer accounted for over half of today's turnover. Elsewhere, the market was quiet with nothing worth reporting on.

Mauritius: Semdex unch, USD 660k

A slow day to end the week in Port Louis with some small activity in MCBG (24k shares) and SBMH (668k shares).

Nigeria: ASI -0.39%, USD 3.6m

The lack of interest in Lagos is palpable as turnover continues to dissapoint with not a single name breaking the $1m mark yet again. Both banking stocks (-0.72%) and consumer stocks (-1.13%) closed the day lower on tiny volume.

Please note that the index figure above is correct at the time of writing.

Zimbabwe: Industrials +0.16%, USD 453k

Another dull day in Harare with some small activity in Delta ($240k) the only name worth mentioning. Econet announced that their rights issue was 74.6% subscribed.
