Movers & Shakers: July 05, 2017


Botswana: DCI -0.05%, USD 476k

Some trading in Letshego (214t) and Stanchart (320t) the major highlights today.

Kenya: NSE 20 +0.23%, USD 5.44m

A rather uninspiring day in Nairobi with nothing overly exciting to write home about. As usual, leading the way in terms of activity was Safcom which shed 1.09% to KES22.75. There was also some decent activity in EABL (+82bps, KES247.00) while the rest of the market was non-existent.

Mauritius: Semdex +0.03%, USD 1.87m

A chunky cross in the normally illiquid CIM (Rs9.32) was the main focal point today. The rest of the market was dull.

Nigeria: ASI -0.33%, USD 9.4m

The market remains sluggish as it struggles to break free from the US holidays. Both Banks (-34bps) and Consumers (-89bps) had somewhat soft days. Among the banks the bulk of the action took place in Zenith Bank (unch, N20.20) while the most active consumers stock was Nestle (+6bps, N901.50). There was also some crossing in Dangcem (+1bp, N202.01).

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

Zimbabwe: Industrials +0.46%, USD 1.09m

Yet again the local market dominates trading on the ZSE. There was some decent action in Econet (35.94c).
