Dangote Cement Plc and BUA Cement Plc, two major cement manufacturing firms on the Nigerian Exchange Group Plc (NGX) recorded a combined gain of about N650.668 billion at the end of today’s trading to rank among gainers of the day despite economic headwinds.

This is despite speculations that the latest interest rate hike by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) might depress market appetite.

Recall that the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) of the CBN voted Tuesday to increase the benchmark interest rate by 100 basis points to 16.5%, the highest since 2001.
