The gauge of the Nigerian stock market declined the most in six weeks on Wednesday following disappointing earnings report by big corporations.

The All Share Index of the Nigerian Stock Exchange declined 1.1 percent on Wednesday, the highest single-day drop since June 21. The market capitalisation of listed equities declined from N13.459 trillion on Tuesday to N13.263 trillion on Wednesday.

Dangote Cement Plc, the largest share by market value, dipped by 1.3 percent. While Royal Exchange Plc declined by 10 percent and Nigerian Breweries Plc pulled back by 1.9 percent respectively.

Mr. Olufemi Awoyemi, the Chief Executive of Proshare Nigeria Limited was quoted by Bloomberg as saying that some companies cut their earnings projection following poor first half of the year.

“Some investors want to play safe and are moving to the fixed-income market,” he added.

Also, the rising political tension weighed on decision making. The ruling party, All Progressives Congress, has lost key members, including the Senate president to the opposition part amid series of accusations between its members.

The Senate President, Bukola Saraki, and the governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal left the ruling party to join the Peoples Democratic Party, which has ruled the nation for 16 years until a coalition party, APC, defeated them in 2015.

An economist at Vetiva Capital Management Limited, Michael Famoroti, said politics will drive the medium term market performance.

However, he attributed the weak market sentiment to disappointing earnings from Dangote Cement and Nigerian Breweries, the two biggest companies by market capital and account for almost half of the market.

People do o. Long term some companies are good.
Moreover some can afford to have money tied down for years or can even afford to lose it. After bank shares show many of us shege, nor be small thing.

If not for devaluation of Naira over time, investing now when low is next best to investing when companies for go to stock market.

Aren't there just 173 companies. Some companies shares have been the same price for ages. The last IPO was in 2014. If there was a way to invest in foreign stock markets like USA and China then I would be game but for Africa never

False Info

Where you keep GTB and Nestle?

It is when they buy the product the company is selling that the stock exchange market can rise to make profit

Yes there are issues. I went into 9ja stock with the confidence of experience of European shares well before 2007/8 economic crisis. Even with little money then you could play the market reasonably well.
But 9ja turned out to be a different beast. Lack of transparency and insider stuff. Quite amazing that no IPO since 2014. Shows lack of confidence.

Even with foreign shares be careful. Not all Western companies are now viable as they once were. We might not be too far from another economic crisis. Consider possible Brexit impact on global economy.

Good time to buy the dips of value stocks.

Lack of initiative and brains not confidence
