The All Share Index (ASI) decreased by 54.42 absolute points, representing a dip of 0.11 per cent to close at 49,991.41 points. Similarly, the market capitalisation lost N30 billion to close at N26.964 trillion.

 

The downturn was impacted by losses recorded in medium and large capitalised stocks, amongst which are; Lafarge Africa, Nigerian Exchange Group (NGXGroup), Stanbic IBTC Holdings, Zenith Bank and United Bank for Africa (UBA).
United Capital Plc said: “looking ahead, we expect to see a gradual reduction in activity in the market as the MPC meeting draws nearer. In addition, we expect the impact of the increased benchmark lending rate on equity markets to continue to take effect. Investors are expected to continue cherry-picking stocks with solid underlying fundamentals.”
