Movers & Shakers: November 10, 2015


Botswana: +0.05%, USD 3.05m

Some pleasing action today in Gaborone today thanks to some crosses in the likes of Sechaba (2900t), Letshego (298t) and BIHL (1505t).

Kenya: NSE 20 -0.14%, USD 7.7m

Some reasonable action in Nairobi although foreign investors were quieter than they have been recently. The most active name was CFCB which saw a couple of crosses (local seller, mostly foreign buying) as the bank closed unchanged at KES86.00. In normal trading we saw decent buying in Equity Bank (+60bps, KES42.25) and Safcom (+2.7%, KES15.45) while KNCB fell by 1.8% to KES41.50.

Mauritius: Semdex -0.13%, USD 1.03m

A generally lethargic day in Mauritius ahead of tomorrow’s public holiday. The main action went through in MCBG (+20bps, Rs214.00).

Nigeria: ASI -0.64%, USD 9.04m

Another pathetic day in Nigeria in the absence of the large crosses that sometimes punctuate the market. Banks fell by 1.15% although outside of Zenith bank (-4.01%, N16.99) and UBA (-1.62%, N3.64) the sector was quiet. Consumers fell by a further 1.36% today albeit on thin volumes.

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

Zimbabwe: Industrial +0.18%, USD 202k

Some action in the Innscor spinoff Simbisa ($118k) the only name worth mentioning as the rest of the market was very dull.
