Noothing to report from Gaborone.
A slow start to the week in Nairobi with some mild activity in Safcom ($2.3m) the only name worth mentionaing while the rest of the market heavyweights were dead quiet. The two major banking stocks ended the day mixed with KNCB falling -3.1% while EQBNK gained +1.9%, both on low volume.
A quiet start to the week while MCBG (-2.0%, Rs250.00) finally showed some signs of cooling off. Once again the banking group accounted for the bulk of the trading activity with the rest of the market basically shut.
A solid start to the week on the activity front in Lagos with some action in GTB ($6.2m), Access ($2.2m), Nestle ($1.8m) and DangCem ($1.7m) the highlights of the day. Banking stocks managed to close +0.46% higher thanks to Access (+3.46%). Consumers closed -1.08% lower with Nestle (-4.15%) a major drag on the sector.
Please note that the index figure above is correct at the time of writing.
Yet again the aggressive local buying dominated proceedings in Harare. The major trading today went through in Econet (35c) and Old Mutual ($3.8025).
