Movers & Shakers: November 09, 2015


Botswana: DCI -0.01%, USD 666k

Some action in Letshego the only name worth mentioning as 1.1m shares changed hands in the name.

Kenya: NSE 20 +0.52%, USD 2.6m

A really dull start to the week in Nairobi. Outside of some small crossing in EABL (+40bps, KES277) and Safcom (unch, KES15.05) the market was exceptionally quiet.

Mauritius: Semdex -0.07%, USD 200k

A very dull start to the week as turnover amounted to a paltry $200k. The Monetary Policy Committee of the Bank of Mauritius cut the Key Repo Rate by 25 basis points to 4.40%. Monthly tourist arrivals for October increased +7.6% from the year before.

Nigeria: ASI -0.03%, USD 73.1m

A mammoth day in Lagos thanks to a couple of chunky crosses. The main highlights were 310m GTB cross (both sides foreign), 26m NB (foreign seller, local buyer) and 600m Access (both sides local). However, the general market was extremely quiet as both banks and consumers ended the day marginally in the red. Outside of the crosses mentioned above there were a couple of decent crosses in Unilever (+5%, N33.00).

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

Zimbabwe: Industrials +0.76%, USD 1m

A decent start to the week from an activity point of view as turnover amounted to $1m thanks to NatFoods ($344k) and Econet ($330k).
