University Press Plc has a spot in this week’s watchlist, by virtue of being one of the top 10 losers for last week. The stock declined by 6.25% to close at a 5–year low of N1.05. Players in this space have struggled and the stock could tank further, as there are no compelling reasons for an uptick.
