AMIDST CAUTIOUS TRADING, BEARS BARE FANGS, AS INVESTORS DIGEST ARRAY OF ECONOMIC DATA, OUTLOOK
Market Update for November 21
Tuesday’s trading on the floor of the
Nigeria Stock Exchange ended on a negative note amidst technicals, which
reflected bearish sentiments as traders and investors begin to gradually add the
outcome of the day’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting to the array of
data that have graced the market so as to take a holistic decision on the
direction of the market and indeed, the nation’s economy for the short, medium
to long-term investment purpose. Before the meeting of the Central Bank of
Nigeria’s MPC, data that and happenings in the market in recent weeks, besides
the Q3 earnings season filings, stakeholders are trying to make sense of today,
are the inflation and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) data, the MSCI Frontier
Market outcome, Moody’s downgrade of the Nigerian sovereign and banks,
confidence, the 2018 Appropriation Bill, as well as purchasing managers’
indices among others.
On Tuesday, the MPC at the end of its
two-day meeting, the committee did not vote for easing of monetary policy to reduce
cost of funds, increase lending by banks and in the process further boost
productive activities to drive growth. Members voted eight to one to retain all
rates, despite the relative improvements in the economy, warning that economic
recovery remains fragile yet, considering where it was before slipping into recession.
The committee also based their not-yet-time-to-clink-glasses decision on the
fact that Nigeria’s population growth rate was faster than the GDP’s 1.4%.
That said, there is every need today
than ever before for the monetary and fiscal authorities to redouble their
efforts, strategies to undertake a review of their strategies, while critically
assessing progress and impact to sustain and even improve on the recovery as
revealed by the positive economic data and the latest Q3 GDP data. Profit
booking as mentioned in our Monday update, where we warned that with the three
trading sessions of gains, traders are likely to take their profit which took
place at the end of trade on Tuesday.
The day started out with a little gap up
in the index before the midday pullback into red where it lingered for the rest
of the day, until the last minutes when there was a slight support at 36,579.63
from the intraday high of 36,864.64, to close lower for the day.
Meanwhile, the NSE’s
composite index shed 192.52 basis points to close at 36,600.07 from the 36,792.60
points it opened, which represented a 0.52% decline, just as market capitalisation
went down by N67.01bn to close at N12.74tr from the previous N12.81tr,
representing a 0.52% value lost in investors’ portfolios.
The day’s downturn
resulted from losses suffered by medium and high cap stocks like Forte Oil, Zenith
Bank, UBA, FBNH, PZ, Dangote Flour, Stanbic IBTC, PZ, Flourmills and
Nigeria Breweries as investors and traders took profit, a situation that
impacted negatively on the ASI’s year-to-date return, reducing it to 36.19%,
just as YTD growth in market capitalisation stood at N3.5tr, representing a
37.76% rise over the year’s opening value.
Market breadth
for the day was negative as the number of decliners outpaced advancers in the
ratio of 22:19 on a low traded volume that was higher than previous day level.
Market
activities in terms of volume and value were up by 23.58% and 34.29% respectively
to 257.93m shares valued at N3.29bn from the previous day’s 208.71m units worth
N2.45bn.
At the end of
the day’s trading session, Champion Brewery topped the advancers’ log, gaining
9.09% to close at N2.16 per share, on market forces, followed by Linkage
Assurance which notched 5.17% to close at N0.61 on market forces.
On the
flipside, Forte Oil shed a further 8.86% to close at N40 each on profit taking
and the probable impact of its exit from MSCI index, ahead of Caverton which
lost 5.30% to close at N1.25 each also on profit taking.
TODAY’S
OUTLOOK
Following the MPC’s decision to retain MPR and
other rates, expect volatility to continue due to profit booking, portfolio
rebalancing and repositioning along the earnings surprises, positive economic
data and end year rally as oil price continue to look up in this season.
Again, we advise that investors allow
numbers to guide their decisions while repositioning for the rest of the year’s
trading activities, especially now that stock prices remain volatile amidst
improving company, economic and market fundamentals.
It is time to combine fundamentals and technical tools to take decision by knowing the support and resistant level to reposition or exit any position.
