Market Update for November 19 The Nigerian Stock Exchange closed higher on Tuesday, halting the previous day’s loss position in the midst of profit-taking, amidst the ongoing interpretation of recent economic data and corporate earnings in relation to the different investment windows as capital wave continued finding a destination for higher returns. There are the telling effects of the expected rise in market liquidity level and indeed the economy at large, due to the sharp drop in money market rates, just as the Loans to Deposit ratio of banks has been raised from 60% to 65% at the end of this quarter.

Market Update for November 25, 2019 Nigeria’s stock market started off the last week of the month of November with a mixed session on Monday, the same day the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) began the final two-day meeting of its Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) for 2019.  The session was dominated by profit-taking and demand for stocks, continuing its bull-run on a low traded volume, just as sell position stood at 57%, with buy volume at 43% and Transaction Volume Index of 0.73. Buying interest in Consumer Goods stocks: Nestle, Cadbury and Dangote Sugar; as well as insurance stocks lifted the market’s benchmark All Share index during the session. We note that the new price methodology introduced not too long ago by the management of the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) has boosted trading activities in stocks selling below N100 per share, especially the kobo equities requiring a small amount of money to move their prices. The situation has made stock in this class very...

Update for The Week ended November 22 and Outlook for Nov 25-29 The benchmark All-Share index of the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) rallied in the past week on sustained positive sentiments as demand for equity assets increased as a result of the lower rate and declining yields in the fixed income markets. This was due to the unconventional monetary policy adopted by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) that helped to release liquidity to the nation’s private sector and drive economic growth. Despite the uptrend in stock prices, the two released economic data: the Consumer Price Index and the third-quarter GDP, had traces of mixed performance and weakness. While the CPI came in worse than expected at 11.61%, a spike up from 11.24% in September, Q3 GDP came stronger at 2.28%, as against the previous quarter’s 2.12%, which had been revised from the earlier stated 1.94%. The Q3 GDP growth was despite a slowdown in some sectors and uptick in others, just as inflation rate jumped fo...

Founder of the Tony Elumelu Foundation (TEF) and Chairman, United Bank for Africa Plc, Tony Elumelu, has challenged African leaders to prioritise youth employment, inclusive growth and gender diversity to promote the continent’s development agenda for peace and stability. Speaking at a high-level panel with President Macky Sall of Senegal, and Mohamed Ould Ghazouani, his Mauritanian counterpart, Elumelu stressed the urgency in tackling poverty, which remains the root cause of extremism in Africa. He urged all stakeholders – the private sector, government, and development partners to collaborate to win the war against poverty and insecurity, in addition to stemming “the migration of our young people crossing the Mediterranean through harsh conditions, in search of hope. “We know, and we say, that poverty anywhere is a threat to mankind everywhere. What manifests itself in what we call security breakdown or terrorism, or extremism is actually deeply rooted in poverty, in joblessn...

Latest data by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) showed that the fiscal operations of the Federal Government for the month of October suffered an estimated total deficit of N378.98bn, representing a significant 137.06% rise over the N159.87bn anticipated in the budget for the month. According to the CBN’s Economic Report for the month, gross federally-collected revenue fell to N894.09bn, 28.2% below the N1.246tr budget estimate for the period; and 0.9% less than the previous month’s revenue. The report attributed the decline, relative to the monthly budget estimate to (the) shortfall in both oil and non-oil revenue after oil receipts representing 64.6% of total stood at N577.3bn. It was below the monthly budget estimate of N798.83bn by 27.7%, even as it exceeded the N467.58bn earned in September by 23.5%. “The decrease in oil revenue relative to the monthly budget estimate was attributed to shut-ins and shut-downs at some NNPC (Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation) terminal...

Inflation accelerates at fastest pace in 36 months By CardinalStone Research, According to the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), headline inflation rose by 36bps to a seventeen-month high of 11.61% YoY in October 2019. Driven by the paciest inflation acceleration in 36 months, the current reading is also ahead of both Bloomberg consensus of 11.20% YoY and our forecast of 11.40% YoY. Unsurprisingly, the surge in price level was driven by food inflation pressures (+58bps to 14.09% in October), which coincides with closures of key land borders across the country. We believe the pass-through from border closures muted the impact of an otherwise above-average main harvest and a 7bps moderation in core inflation to 8.88% YoY. Nigerians may endure more purchasing power erosion in the coming months. In our view, frontloaded festive demand may further bloat food prices and overall inflation reading in November and December. On this wise, the country may be set to witness another...

Market Update for November 18 Trading activities on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) on Monday bowed to the expected profit-taking pressure, capital wave and disappointing inflation report for October which rose to 17 months high at 11.61%, from September’s 11.24%. The rise in Consumer Price Index further dragged returns on Treasury Bills into negative territories, following which fixed income market yields are already threatened. This is due to the clash in fiscal and monetary policies arising from the impact of the three-month closure of Nigeria’s land borders to check smuggling. Although, the effects of the closure have not all been negative, given the drop in the country’s consumption of petroleum products. There is also inflationary impacts such as the heavy rainfall that affected farm produce, the increasing demand for goods in preparation for the festive season that is just weeks away, as well as the recent drop in money market rates that further pushed inflation up, as...
