    At the close of trading yesterday, the All-Share Index (ASI), dipped by 46.77 absolute points, representing a decline of 0.12 per cent to close at 39,204.52 points. Similarly, the market capitalisation value lost N25 billion to close at N20.426 trillion.

    Analysts at Vetiva Dealings and Brokerage said: “Despite market activity being lifted by some Tier-1 banking and small-cap names, we continue to see stronger sell-side pressure, hence the negative close.

    “We expect the market to trade in a similar pattern tomorrow barring any significant gain in any of the large cap names.”

    The market negative performance was driven by price depreciation in large and medium capitalised stocks amongst which are; Guaranty Trust Bank Holding Company (GTCO), Zenith Bank, Stanbic IBTC Holdings, International Breweries and SCOA Nigeria.
