Movers & Shakers: December 23, 2016

Botswana: Data not available at time of writing

Kenya: NSE 20 20 +0.22%, USD 3.5m

As expected it was a rather dull session in Kenya. The most active stocks were KNCB (unch, KES 28.25) and Safcom while we also witness a couple of crosses in Scan (+6.74%, KES19.00).

Mauritius: Semdex -0.10%, USD 1.1m

Once again MCBG (+10bps, Rs215.50) accounted for about half the total market turnover in a generally uneventful day.

Nigeria: ASI +0.08%, USD 4.5m

It was a half day in Nigeria ahead of the long Christmas break. Despite this we actually saw a couple of crosses once again get volumes up to a reasonable level. Banks fell by 1.81% with GTB (-4.99%, N23.43) leading the way. Consumers also closed lower (-1.83%) with crosses in the likes of NB (-3.13%, N137.55) and Nestle (unch, N810.00).

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

Zimbabwe: Industrials -0.67%, USD 145k

A dull end to the week in Harare with nothing exciting to note.
