Dealer’s Perception

·         The NSE All-Share Index lost 20bps today.

·         The dip in FBN Holdings yesterday led to a surge in demand and a corresponding appreciation of 1.6%, closing sentiments suggests that this trend could continue tomorrow. Also on the up-tick were Stanbic IBTC Holding, Union Bank and Zenith Bank. GTBank was sent tumbling during the session with a 3.8% loss while UBA also dropped 1.1%

·         Last minute purchases curbed the loss suffered by NB during the session, re-entries tomorrow could also  prevent further losses. International Breweries however consolidated on previous gains with a further 5.6% mark-up, while Guinness recorded no change.

·         Dangote Cement was skewed to the buy side today, though recording no change at the close of the session. On the other hand, Lafarge Wapco and CCNN were skewed to the sell side with losses of 3.2% and 1.8% apiece.
