Some action in Choppies the only name worth mentioning as 1.5m shares changed hands while the rest of the market was rather quiet.
Another impressive day in Port Louis thanks to a large cross in CIEL as 11.7m shares changed hands in the name, while MCBG (181k shares) was also very active.
A much better day in Lagos, but still well below historic norms, thanks to a decent cross in Seplat ($8.2m) while there was also some small activity in GTB ($1.3m). Banking stocks managed to close firmly in positive territory with the sector gaining +1.83% thanks to GTB (+5.11%) after the bank released Q3 2016 results. Consumers (+0.12%) closed slightly higher on very low volume.
Please note that the index figure above is correct at the time of writing.
The rally continues in Harare on local demand while activity continues to impress thanks to some action in Delta ($986k), GetBucks ($186k) and Innscor ($141k).
