Dealer’s Perception
·
The NSE
All-Share Index lost a further 25bps today.
·
The
banking sector was split evenly between the bears and the bulls as growing
demand for First Bank firmed up its price, booking a 2.5% gain at
the close of proceedings; also on the up-tick were Sterling Bank, FCMB and GTBank with slim gains of 1.9%, 1.6% and
0.6% respectively. On the flip side, the bearish trend on Union Bank led to a further 4.9% drop while Access Bank also lost 4.0%.
·
The
food and beverages sector was skewed to the sell side as selling pressure
trimmed off 4.7% from Flour
Mills, with closing sentiments
that could lead to further losses tomorrow. Nascon, Dangote Flour and Cadbury were not spared either, booking losses of
4.2%, 2.3% and 0.2% respectively.
·
In the
conglomerates sector, institutional purchases cleared offers for Unilever
as it surged to N40.11, a 5.0% appreciation; it closed with unsatisfied demand
that could lead to further appreciation tomorrow. Demand for Transcorp also continued to grow leading to a further 4.8% mark-up and
unsatisfied bids of 246 million units at limit up.
