MARKET UPDATE 15.
The nation’s stock market recorded a slightly positive outing to
close last week on somewhat improved appetite by bargain hunters, fund managers
and investors. This was reflected on the volume traded for short trading
sessions due to public holiday to mark this year’s Democracy day and at the
same time the transition of power to a new government. The Composite Index of the market,NSEASI
closed at 34,310.37 from an opening figure of 34,272.09 with a different of
38.28 basis point representing 0.11 percent growth, while market capitalization
appreciated 0.12 percent to close at N11.67 trillion. Consequently, the
negative year to date performance of the market dropped to 1.00 percent.
It was a clear dominance of market activities by the bulls,
holding sway in 3 out of this week's 4 trading days as market breadth closed
positive in all but the first trading days. Generally, market's sentiment
improved this week as investors initiated gradual entry into the market -
shifting their sideline positions. The Index opened and remains within the
34,000 threshold - a range it has remained in the last 31 trading days. In the
same positive trend, the Market capitalization added about N0.200billion to
close at N11.67 billion this week largely driven by supplementary listings of
Champions Breweries Plc and Pharmadeko Plc. The sectoral indices closed in
different directions as NSEINDUSTRY, NSEOILGAS, NSEINS and NSEASEM recorded positive
outing while NSECNSMRGDS, NSEBNK and NSELOTUISLM together with NSE30 and NSE50
closed red.
Transaction level by volume in this week's 4 trading days although
declined compared to the previous weeks' level but the value of trades improved.
The volume dropped 39 percent while value of trades recorded 38 percent growth
respectively. At the close of trading activities this week, 1.78 billion shares
valued at N22.07 billion were exchanged in a lower number of deals of 17,018
compared with 2.94 billion shares valued at N16.04 billion exchanged in 20,846
deals recorded in the previous trading week.
Despite the fear of negative impact of fuel scarcity on the
investors positioning in the market this, the NSEASI closed strong on
"last minute" rally in 3 out of 4 trading day. The rally was largely
driven by traders and smart money that were accumulating undervalued stocks in
anticipation of mark-up after transition ceremony as the major hurdle befalling
the market has come and gone.
During the week the number of advancers were more of the decliners
in the ratio of 38: 31while the unchanged equities were 124.
Market Outlook
We expect the market to positively embrace the incoming government
as the smooth transition has impacted on the nation’s democracy to drive
economic growth and development, going forward. The
economic reform policies of this government will sharp the market going forward
especially in the second half of the year. As the market expect the monetary
and fiscal policy to work together to drive the nation economy.
