The All Share Index (ASI) lost by 237.34 points, representing a loss of 0.20 per cent to close at 119,741.23 points. Also, market capitalisation lost N150 billion to close at N75.801 trillion.

The overall downturn was impacted by losses recorded in medium and large capitalised stocks, amongst which are; Dangote Cement, PZ Cussons Nigeria, Guaranty Trust Holding Company (GTCO), Zenith Bank and Dangote Sugar Refinery.

However, market sentiment remained strong, as reflected in a positive market breadth, driven by 46 gainers outperforming 23 laggards in yesterday’s session.

Honeywell Flour Mills, McNichols, Mutual Benefits Assurance and RT Briscoe recorded the highest price gain of 10 per cent each to close at N23.65, N2.53, N1.21 and N2.75 respectively, per share.
