Movers & Shakers: November 14, 2016


Botswana: DCI -0.04%, USD 30k

Nothing to report from Gaborone.

Kenya: NSE 20 +0.13%, USD 5.0m

A rather average to start to week in Nairobi as locals dominated what little activity there was thanks to a large cross in the usually illiquid NIC Bank as 6.2m shares changed hands in the name. Safcom (-2.4%) was the biggest loser amongst the heavyweights while EABL (+1.5%), KNCB (+2.5%) and EQBNK (+2.4%) all closed higher on low volume.

Mauritius: Semdex +0.26%, USD 1.6m

A decent start to the week from an activity point of view in Port Louis as MCBG completely dominated proceedings yet again with 155k shares changing hands in the name.

Nigeria: ASI -0.70%, USD 3.5m

Another extremely dull start to the week in Lagos with not a single name breaking the $1m mark. Banking stocks came under some serious pressure with the sector closing -2.14% lower thanks to Zenith (-4.16%) and GTB (-2.23%). Consumers (-0.31%) also closed the day lower with Guinness (-1.11%) weighing the sector down.

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

Zimbabwe: Industrials: +0.46%, USD 138k

The Industrial Index continued to rally albeit on scrappy volumes. The only stock that saw any modicum of trading today was Delta (75c).
