Movers & Shakers: September 15, 2016
Botswana: DCI +0.05%, USD 56k
Much of the same in Gaborone.
Kenya: NSE 20 -1.04%, USD 3.4m
A dull day to end a rather dreadful week from an activity point of view with a foreign cross in EABL (+1.6%) the only name worth mentioning as 491k shares traded in the brewer. The two major banking stocks ended the week mixed with KNCB falling -0.9% while EQBNK closed unchanged. Not much on the go in Safcom as a dire 2.7m shares traded in the telco.
Mauritius: Semdex +0.08%, USD 1.2m
MCBG saved the day once again as 123k shares changed hands in the name while the rest of the market heavyweights remain painfully quiet.
Nigeria: ASI +0.48%, USD 6.6m
Another dull day on the shorted trading week in Lagos with a cross in NB ($1.7m) the only name with some form of activity. Banking stocks managed to close the day slightly higher with the sector gaining +0.57% after trading most of the day in negative territory, thanks to a late rally in GTB (+2.08%). Consumers (+1.55%) had a rather solid day thanks to NB (+2.38%). August CPI data showed that consumer prices increased +17.6%.
Please note that the index figure above is correct at the time of writing.
Zimbabwe: Industrials +1.42%, USD 475k
A better day in Harare to end the week, but still nothing nowhere near to get excited about, with some small activity in Delta ($245k) and Econet ($130k).
