Movers & Shakers: November 11, 2015

Botswana: DCI -0.01%, USD 1.5m

A much better day in Gaborone thanks to some action in Letshego (3m shares) and Sechaba (231k shares).

Kenya: NSE 20 +0.81%, USD 3.1m

An exceptionally dull day in Nairobi as turnover amounted to $3.1m with activity pretty evenly split between locals and foreigners. A relatively late cross in EABL (foreign/ foreign) boosted activity in the brewer as 268k shares changed hands. Not much on the go (activity wise) in Safcom as 4.4m shares traded with the telco gaining +2.7% to close at 15.45. The two major banking stocks KNCB and EQBNK were very quiet as 1.1m shares and 811k shares changed hands in the names respectively. Centum fell -3% after releasing H1 2016 results.

Mauritius: Market closed for the day.

Nigeria: ASI +0.12%, USD 7.2m

Another shockingly quiet day in Lagos with a cross in Access ($2.2m) the only name worth mentioning as the rest of the market was dead quiet. Banks closed higher with the sector gaining +0.55% thanks to Access (+4.00%) and UBA (+3.02%). Consumers (+0.70%) also closed higher thanks to Flour Mills (+4.55%) and Dangote Flour (+4.76%).

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