During the week, market capitalisation also depreciated to N11.612 trillion as sell-offs in market bellwethers outpaced last-minute bargain hunting activities.

According to the stock analysis by NSE, all other indices finished lower with the exception of the NSE CG, NSE Premium, NSE ASeM, NSE Banking, NSE-AFR Bank Value, NSE AFR Div Yield, NSE Industrial Goods and NSE Pension indices which appreciated by 0.66%, 0.27%, 0.55%, 3.82%, 4.76%, 2.97%, 2.42% and 0.71% respectively

Analysts at Afrinvest expect bargain hunting activities seen last Friday to extend to early trades this week and could potentially drive positive returns in the NSE ASI.
