On Tuesday, the domestic equity market posted red as the NGX-ASI declined by 2.2% to 46,366.32 points. Consequently, the Year-to-date (YTD) return of the market weakened to 7.5% from 8.5% the previous trading day.

Top gainers in the market were led by UCAP (+9.7%), REGALINS (+8.3%) and SOVRENINS (+7.7%), while AIRTELAFRI (-10.0%), NB (-9.8%) and CWG (-8.6%) posted as today’s top losers.

For today’s trading activities, the total volume traded gained 205% to 420.1mn units and total value traded declined 16% to ₦3.6bn. CWG, GTCO and ZENITHBANK led the volume chart with 258.7mn units, 57.4mn units and 13.1mn units respectively. On the other hand, AIRTELAFRI, GTCO and ZENITHBANK led the value chart with ₦1.4bn, ₦1.1bn and ₦268.8mn respectively.

For indices under our purview, performance was more bullish as three indices gained and two indices declined. 

The Industrial, Banking and Insurance indices gained 1.4%, 0.9% and 0.5% respectively.

The losses were largely attributed to investors’ selloffs in NB (-9.8%) and OANDO (-1.8%).
