Nigerian stocks closed on a negative today, as the All Share Index (ASI) dipped by 1.87% to close at 24,056.12. This is a consecutive slump, after the ASI finished on a negative yesterday with a 1.26% drop.

The decline in stocks may be attributed to the fact that investors are trying to sell their shares due to a decline in the value of the naira. The Naira has been depreciating against the dollar due to scarcity as the CBN is tightening control.

Here is a snapshot of today’s trading;
