Movers & Shakers: August 14, 2015
Botswana: DCI +0.05%, USD 3.65m
Today was all about Choppies as a chunky cross went through the market at 550t (local buyer, foreign seller). The rest of the market was quiet..
Kenya: NSE 20 +0.02%, USD 6.9m
A chunky cross in BATK (local seller, foreign buyer) was the bulk of the action today in Nairobi as the general market remains quiet. Safcom fell by 2.9% to KES15.00 on the second most active trading while the other large cap names were extremely dull.
Mauritius: Semdex -0.04%, USD 1.43mill
A solid enough day to end the week in Port Louis as turnover amounted to $1.43m as MCBG drove proceedings with 111k shares changing hands thanks to a few crosses. There was also some activity in LUX as 117k shares traded while SBMH (4.7m shares) was very quiet.
Nigeria: ASI -0.15%, USD 12.1m
Another pathetic day in Lagos as the lack of interest is really hurting. Banks fell by a further 2.93% today with some decent action witnessed in GTB (+1.10%, N23.05) and Zenith (+94bps, N16.08). Consumers rose by 57bps although the sector wwas eerily quiet. There was a chunky trade in the very illiquid name Mobil (-3.14%, N154.00). More than $3m changed hands in this name.
Please note that the index figure above is correct at the time of writing.
Zimbabwe: Industrials -0.84%, USD 28k
An absolute disaster in Harare from an activity point of view as turnover amounted to a paltry $28k.
