It was an incredibly quiet session in Kenya today as turnover barely cracked the $2m barrier. The best illustration in the lack of activity was the fact that the most active stock was StanChart while all the major stocks barely moved.
A dull start to the week in Mauritius. Approximately half the total turnover went through in MCBG (unch, Rs270.00) with the rest of the market extremely quiet.
The day started off slowly and never really got going. The index did gain some ground mostly on the back of Banks which rose by 1.97%. The major trading today went through in GTB (+6bps, N34.62) Zenith Bank (+3.45%, N21.31). Consumers ended the day marginally in the red on the back of minimal trading.
Please note that the index figure above is correct at the time of writing.
Volumes feel as though they are tailing off in Harare whilst the index continues to chug along. The major action today went through in Seedco (145c) and Delta ($1.2725).
