The All-Share Index (ASI) lost 162.76 points, representing a loss of 0.24 per cent to close at 67,037.93 points. Also, market capitalisation declined by N90 billion to close at N36.830 trillion.

The downturn was driven by price depreciation in large and medium capitalised stocks amongst which are; Okomu Oil, Stanbic IBTC Holdings, Eterna, Cadbury Nigeria and Oando.

This week, United Capital Plc stated that,  “we expect investor sentiment to continue to improve, particularly toward stocks with pending corporate actions and fantastic H1, 2023 financial performance.”

As measured by market breadth, market sentiment was negative, as 22 stocks lost relative to 19 gainers. Royal Exchange emerged the highest price gainer of 8.51 per cent to close at 51 kobo, per share.  Consolidated Hallmark Insurance followed with a gain of 6.96 per cent to close at N1.23, while NASCON Allied Industries advanced by 5.45 per cent to close at N58.00, per share.
