Another big day in Letshego with a number of crosses going through again at the 295t level. There was also some more muted activity in the likes of FSG (285t) and RDCP (245t).
As usual the bulk of the action was focused on the large caps. There was a chunky foreign cross in EABL (+40bps, KES275) early on while throughout the session we saw decent action in Equity Bank (unch, KES41.50) and Safcom (-1%, KES15.55). The rest of the market was exceptionally quiet.
A rather dull day to end the week in Port Louis with turnover amounting to $880k. Some small activity in MCBG (49k shares) the only name worth mentioning.
A dull end to a dull week in Lagos. The banks gained 64bps today with the only action taking place in GTB (+10bps, N19.99). The consumers ended the session marginally in the red with Nestle (+2.23%, N825.00) and NB (-83bps, N119.00) seeing some action. The rest of the market was uneventful.
Please note that the index figure above is correct at the time of writing.
A very solid day to end the week from an activity point of view with turnover amounting to $1.2m thanks to some action in Delta ($1.2m) while the rest of the market was dead quiet.
