2 min read

Activities on the nation’s bourse closed on the last trading day of June with a loss of N198 billion due to month-end rebalancing.

Specifically, the market capitalisation, which opened at N12.967 trillion, shed N198 billion or 1.53 per cent to close at N12.769 trillion.

The All-Share Index (ASI) lost 379.67 points or 1.53 per cent to close at 24,479.22.

The downturn was due to losses recorded in medium and highly capitalised stocks some of which were: BUA Cement, Dangote Cement, Lafarge Africa, Cadbury and Berger Paints.

Analysts at Afrinvest Limited said: “although profit-taking was the tone of the market, we expect to see bargain hunting in subsequent trading sessions.”

Market breadth closed negative with 34 price losers in contrast with 10 price gainers.

Cadbury Nigeria and BUA Cement dominated the losers’ chart in percentage terms, dropping by 10 per cent each to close at N6.75 and N38.70 per share, respectively.

Unity Bank trailed with a loss of 9.43 per cent to close at 48k per share.

Berger Paints dipped by 9.40 per cent to close at N6.75, while Learn Africa dropped by 9.30 per cent to close at N1.17 per share.
