The Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) commenced trading for the week on Monday with a loss of 0.30 per cent.

Specifically, the All-Share Index (ASI) dipped 72.83 points to close at 24,753.92 compared with 24,826.75 achieved on Friday.

Also, the market capitalisation which opened at N12.951 trillion lost N38 billion or 0.30 per cent to close at N12.913 trillion.

The downturn was impacted by losses recorded in medium and large capitalised stocks, amongst which are; Stanbic IBTC Holdings, Nigerian Breweries, BUA Cement, Ardova and Flour Mills.

On market performance, analysts at United Capital said: “This week, we expect a tepid performance at the equity market, as investors continue to soft pedal on stock ahead of half year results.”

Also, analysts at Imperial Asset Research, expected an element of bargain hunting by some investors.

They added that some active traders would buy into some stocks that have shed weight in the previous weeks.

They urged that investors with long-term investment goals should continue to build their portfolios given the current attractive valuation of most fundamentally viable stocks.

Market breadth closed negative with 11 gainers compared with 26 laggards.

Neimeth led the losers’ chart in percentage terms, dropping 9.74 per cent, to close at N1.39 per share.
