Movers & Shakers: December 01, 2016

Botswana: DCI +0.01%, USD 1.5m

A cross in FNBB (301t) the only action today.

Kenya: NSE 20 +0.11%, USD 3.5m

A very quiet start to the month in Nairobi. Once again we saw some decent action in Safcom (+50bps, KES20.00) while EABL (-1.6%, KES244) saw 1 decent cross. The rest of the market was non-existent.

Mauritius: Semdex +0.02%, USD 2.3m

It was once again all about MCBG as a rather impressive 218k shares changed hands in the name, while there was also some action in Sanlam as 167k shares traded.

Nigeria: ASI +0.09%, USD 6.0m

The month started the same way as November ended – on a dull note. In fact, one of the highlights was some local crossing yet again in WemaBank. In normal trading we saw some action in GTB (+6bps, N22.80) and NB (-1.37%, N143.02). The rest of the market was exceptionally dull with little direction.

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

Zimbabwe: Industrials +1.44%, USD 1.6m

Another decent day in Harare thanks to some action in Delta ($753k) and Old Mutual ($258k).
