Movers & Shakers: January 07, 2016
Botswana: DCI +0.06%, USD 3.1m
A much better day in Gaborone thanks to crosses in BIHL and Letshego as 1.3m shares and 5m shares changed hands in the names respectively.
Kenya: NSE 20 -0.14%, USD 3.4m
Locals remain absent from the Kenyan bourse with turnover amounting to a very dull $3.4m as foreigners ocntinue to dominate what little activity there is.

Mauritius: Semdex -0.12%, USD 310k
Aside from small activity in SBMH (4.6m shares) and NMH (183k shares), there was once again nothing to report from Port Louis.
Nigeria: ASI +0.31%, USD 8.2m
Activity continues to underwhelm in Lagos as most market participants seem to still be on holiday. There was a small bit of activity in GTB ($2.3m), Stanbic ($1.2m) and NB ($1m). Banks closed lower with the sector falling -2.05% thanks to Access (-4.98%) and UBA (-4.85%). Consumers (-1.27%) also closed lower with NB (-2.59%) and 7UP (-1.92%) dragging the sector lower. DangCem (+4.27%) closed the day higher after a few days of taking some serious strain.
