Kenya: NSE 20 -0.33%, USD 2.6m

Another solid day from an activity point of view in Port Louis thanks to a cross in CIEL as 5.2m shares changed hands in the name while there was also some action in MCBG (83k).

It was a rather decent day in Harare from an activity point of view thanks to some action in Innscor as 2.5m shares changed hands in the name as local investors continue to drive demand.
