The cash crunch and elections have continued to slow down market activities. In the last trading week, the open market experienced a decline across grains, with an average decline of 2.32%. Maize declined by 3.10% w-o-w, making it the top loser.
Due to the cautionary approach of processors and investors, the Exchange witnessed a similar trend as most grains closed lower. Maize also topped the loser chart, declining marginally by 1.53%.
The outcome of the general elections and the cash crunch will continue to shape the direction of the domestic market this week.
