Movers & Shakers: November 25, 2016


Botswana: DCI -0.13%, USD 16k

Nothing to report from Gaborone.

Kenya: NSE 20 -0.24%, USD 2.5m

A rather dire end to what has been an extremely lack luster week in Nairobi with no action worth noting as all the market heavyweights were very quiet. There was general weakness across the board on the back of foreign selling with EABL (-4.8%), EQBNK (-2.4%) and Safcom (-0.3%) all closing lower while KNCB closed unchanged.

Mauritius: Semdex -0.14%, USD 1.5m

A solid day to end the week in Port Louis from an activity point of view thanks once again to the usual suspect MCBG as 218k shares changed hands in the name while the rest of the market was extremely quiet.

Nigeria: ASI -0.62%, USD 6.8m

A better close to the week than what we have become accustomed to of late from an activity point of view (but still well below historical norms) with a few crosses in Nestle ($1.8m) and NB ($1m) driving proceedings. Banking stocks closed the day -0.71% lower thanks to weakness in Zenith (-1.43%) while consumers close the day +0.42% higher.

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

Zimbabwe: Industrials +1.63%, USD 1.5m

A very solid day to end the week in Harare thanks to some in action in Delta ($913k) and Econet ($330k) as the market continued to ticj higher.
