Specifically, investors continue to book profit on bellwethers such as Lafarge Africa Plc, Guaranty Trust Bank Plc, and Flour Mills of Nigeria Plc. Hence their respective share prices lowered by 1.61 per cent, 2.07 per cent and 3.03 per cent.

The sectoral performance was bearish across all the sub-indices tracked, as the banking, insurance, consumer goods, oil and gas, and industrial indices closed in the red.

The market’s activity was mixed as total deals and volume of stocks traded moderated by 17.20 per cent and 9.21 per cent to 5,887 deals and 0.50 billion units, respectively.

However, the value of stocks traded rose to N5.3bn.
