Inside the Stock market
Trading activities on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) on Thursday sustained positive trend with the market indicators growing further by 3.18 per cent.

The market capitalisation inched N303 billion or 3.18 per cent to close at N9.825 trillion as against N9.522 trillion achieved on Wednesday.

Ambrose Omordion, the Chief Operating Officer, InvestData Ltd., attributed the steady growth to impressive first quarter earnings released by some companies.

Omordion added that the improved volume and value were as result of funds coming out of other investment windows into the stock market due to improved economy fundamentals.

He said new foreign investors were eyeing the market due to improved foreign exchange, adding that some of the foreign investors already in the market were reinvesting their dividends due to low price of equities.

Total led the gainers’ table for the day, gaining N8 to close at N263 per share. Dangote Cement followed with a gain of N7.29 to close at N173.30 and Nigerian Breweries improved by N6.80 to close at N142.81 per share.
