Outlook

The Nigerian bourse recorded a quiet session this week, with little volumes filtering into the market. Notwithstanding, the broad index finished green for the week.

However, crude oil prices (Nigeria’s major export) printed lower for the week, as concerns strengthened over the resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic at the macro level.

Nairametrics envisages cautious buying of stocks, based on thin market liquidity and profit-taking increasing at a steady pace.
