Aftermath Of Failed Rally: Mixed Performance Ahead, Amidst Profit-taking, Low Liquidity

Image
Market Update for August 27 Trading on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) remained bearish for the second consecutive day after a failed attempt at the rebound. Tuesday’s was yet another very volatile and mixed session that confirmed the failed bear rally as the key performance index, the NSE All-Share could not follow through on the fourth day, just as the intraday low has been undercut on an increased volume of trade. Given that effect of the seemingly positive news of a new cabinet has been halted at the beginning of the week, investors are looking to the release of Nigeria’s Q2 GDP, a major macroeconomic data, sometime next week. The GDP data will, nonetheless, confirm what the nation’s stock market has been signaling- that all may not be well with the economy after all. Also, the month of August is gradually drawing to a close, just as fixed-income yields are on the rise, due to foreign investors offloading their positions, leading to the ongoing price drops in the fixed inco...

Mixed Outlook On NGSE, Amidst Prevailing Low Liquidity, Month-end Window Dressing

Image
Market Update for August 28 Stocks on the Nigerian Stock Exchange at the midweek struggled to recover ahead of month-end window dressing, as the nation’s economic situation and waning investor confidence continue to reflect by way of persistent profit-taking, just as the recent attempt at a rebound is weighing on buying interest. Investors have their gaze fixed on the expected economic policies to be churched out by the new Federal Executive Council, implementation of the 2019 budget and the all-important Q2 GDP report by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) for direction, as the month of August comes gradually to an end. The session’s mixed sentiment supported the benchmark NSE All-Share index as it closed marginally positive on the strength of increasing demand for shares of telecommunication giants- MTN Nigeria, as well as stocks in the industrial, insurance and oil/gas sectors. Despite the continued profit-taking in the banking and consumer goods stocks, the prevailing l...

CBN Rebuffs Protests, Begins Implementation Of Ban On FX Sale To Milk Importers

Image
Reuters on Tuesday reported that the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has begun implementation of its ban on the sale of foreign exchange to importers of milk through its official window, apparently brushing aside protests from a section of the organized private sector opposed to the decision which was announced last month. According to the report, CBN directed banks to stop processing milk imports on a credit basis, quoting bank sources, in its bid to spur local production and save the country’s scarce foreign exchange. The CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele, had while briefing reporters after the last meeting of the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC), announced plans to add milk import to its list of items that cannot be imported using forex access through the official window. He had lamented that Nigeria spends between $1.2bn and $1.5bn annually to import milk. In a circular to banks in the country, the apex bank said milk imports will no longer be eligible under payment terms known as...

Investors Await Confirmation Of Failed Rebound On NGSE, Q2 GDP Data For Next Move

Image
Market Update for August 26 The last full trading week of the month of August on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) which started Monday was yet another mixed session on a negative note, signaling a failed bear rally. This was, however, earlier foreshadowed on Friday, when the market’s gaining momentum witnessed a slowdown, with a Monday’s volume traded declining sharply on mixed sentiments. A confirmation of this failed rebound will, however, depend on today’s market forces, because the intraday low is yet to be undercut. Rebound or recovery is said to sustain when the composite index follows through on four or more days after a rally attempt. The first two or three days of the rally are normally disregarded, given that its success has not yet been proven to follow through with power and conviction. A follow-through day occurs when at least one of the major indexes makes a large percentage gain on higher volume traded which should generally be in the region of 2% or more. All...

Okomu Oil, MRS Oil, UPDC, NCR Hit New 52-week Low, Despite Bear Rally

Image
Market Update for the Week ended August 23 and Outlook For 26-30 Mixed and yet volatile trading is becoming the norm, rather than the exception on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) in recent times. This was, once again, the dominant theme on the bourse last week as the NSE’s composite index closed for the week higher as a result of the dominant low price attraction after recording a huge decline which now ranks it among the worst-performing markets across the world. The index, however, turned positive last week, on the back of last week’s inauguration of the new cabinet and assignment of portfolios to the ministers by President Muhammadu Buhari for his second four-year term. Buying interests among market players were triggered across all classes of stocks that suffered huge losses, reflecting on all market indexes as they closed positive, except for the NSE Insurance that was in red owing to profit-taking in major insurance companies. Added to this was the fact that investors wer...

Nigeria’s Currency-in-Circulation Drops To N2.003tr In July

Image
Latest data by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) shows a further but marginal squeeze in the currency-in-circulation across the country during the month of July. The figure which stood at N2.003tr during the month, dropped by about N11bn from N2.014tr reported for the period ended June 28, 2019, representing a further N108.758bn or 5.15% decline from N2.111tr in the month of May. Year-to-Date, the figure has however dropped by N326.616bn or 14.02%, from N2.329tr as of December 31, 2018, its peak in the past eight months according to data available on the CBN website. Currency-in-Circulation in July, however, represented a year-on-year increase by N178.264bn or 9.77% from N1.824tr reported at the end of July 2018. https://investdata.com.ng/2019/08/nigerias-currency-in-circulation-drops-to-n2-003tr-in-july/#more

At Below 6x, NGSE P/E Ratio Becomes More Attractive, As More Stocks Now Undervalued

Image
Market Update for August 21 The nation’s equity market remained mixed and volatile on Wednesday, even as it managed to close on a positive note, which was insufficient to entirely wipe off previous day’s loss on improved traded volume and buying pressure driven by the prevailing low price attraction. This was in addition to the long-awaited inauguration of a new cabinet and assignment of portfolios to the ministers which took place also at the midweek, signaling the beginning of real governance, exactly six months after President Muhammadu Buhari was re-elected for his second and final term in February. The prevailing high yield on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) as a result of the low prices could serve as an attraction for smart money at this point, considering the market’s Price to Earnings Ratio (PER) which is below 6x. This is considering the fact that yields in the fixed income market and other instruments are declining, due to interest rate cuts across the world that co...

NGSE Fails To Confirm Rebound On Tuesday, Despite Speculative Moves By Investor

Image
Market Update for August 20 The Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) All-Share index failed to confirm previous day’s rebound, amidst volatility and mixed trading that dominated Tuesday’s session with the composite All-Share index closing lower on a low traded volume. This followed price depreciation by telecommunications giant MTN Nigeria, which has become the most capitalized equity on the bourse. Despite the day’s mixed performance, there was increased buying interest in some stocks that had suffered huge losses in recent times as bargain hunters cashed in on the low prices to accumulate ahead of the inauguration of the new federal cabinet and the expected policies from fiscal and monetary authorities that could stimulate the much needed economic growth and development. With real governance about to kickoff with the ministers being assigned portfolios, it expected that the management of economic information and pronouncements thereby addressing investors concerns about the safety o...

More NGSE Stocks Slip To New Lows On Zero Fiscal Stimulus, Global Worries

Image
Market Update for the week ended August 16 and Outlook for 19-23 It was a disappointing and short trading week, with stocks traded on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) seemingly attempting to make all of the losses they would have on Monday and Tuesday, which the Federal Government declared as public holidays to mark the Muslim festival. The first trading session of the week (Wednesday), saw more medium and high cap stocks trading at their new 52-week, five and 10-year lows, as a result of which the benchmark NSE All-Share index traded below the 27,000 psychological line. Last week also was three straight trading sessions of bear-run which extended the seventh consecutive week of decline by the benchmark index as it heads for its two-year lowest, after breaking down another strong support level to test a new low of 26,789.38 basis points. During the week also, the NSEASI touched an intra-week high of 27,307.60bps on a low traded volume. This left the market’s year-to-date loss ...

GTBank Keeps Expenses Lean At Half-year, Nets N99.133bn Profit, Offers N0.30 Dividend

Image
Guaranty Trust Bank Plc, on Friday became the first of the dividend-paying stock to present its audited score-card for the half-year ended June 30, 2019, highlights of which included a marginal drop in interest, rise in fee, commission and other incomes, just as the management successfully kept expenses in check, while growth in loan impairment was constrained. Profit after tax for the period stood at N99.133bn, up from N95.581bn in the corresponding period of 2018, despite the N2.5bn rise in income tax expense, which left Earnings Per Share at N3.50, as against the previous N3.38 each. Of this amount, the board has recommended a dividend per share of 30 kobo, just like prior year payable to holders of the bank’s ordinary shares whose names appear in the register as at close of business on Monday, September 2, 2019. The dividend will, however, be payable to holders of the bank’s Global Depository Receipts (GDR) listed on the London Stock Exchange as of August 26, 2019. This mean...
