Summary of the Decline on
NGX
The Nigerian Exchange (NGX) closed mixed with a notable downturn across major industrial and banking sectors. Market sentiment turned cautious, reflecting investors’ profit-taking behavior after several sessions of gains.
Heavyweights like WAPCO
(-5.45%) and FIRSTHOLDCO (-1.05%) drove the bearish tone, as
investors booked profits amid weaker outlooks and subdued institutional
demand.
In the insurance sector, mild pullbacks in CORNERST and INTENEGINS suggest short-term
consolidation after a period of accumulation.
Microfinance and mid-tier banks, such as LIVINGTRUST and NPFMCRFBK, also saw slight corrections, reflecting cautious repositioning ahead of the next earnings cycle.
