The Diagnosis  

Analysis of the market activity in the week ended November 18, 2016 technically revealed strong bearish tendency while investors remained wary towards investment in equities.  

Also, an extensive analysis revealed a sustained and growing distribution pattern while investors displayed low risk appetite, particularly in Conglomerates, Oil & Gas and  Financial Services sectors.  

In addition, volume analysis revealed active sell tendency towards TRANSCORP, DIAMONDBNK, ETERNA and WEMABANK while investors displayed modest bargain postures towards ACCESS, MAYBAKER, ETI and DANGSUGAR.   

Nonetheless, investors displayed fresh and growing sell tendency in some active sector(s), particularly in Healthcare. Industrial Goods, Oil & Gas and Conglomerates sector(s). However, we observed growing buy tendency in Services. 

Summarily, the bears dominated the week, depressing the key benchmark index by 633.34 points against 810.72 loss recorded in the previous week to close at 25,537.54- ASI remains battered below its key resistance level at 41,957.50.   
 

In addition, the All Share Index traded within the   range of 25,986.81 (week-high) and 25,537.54 (week-low) to settle at 25,537.54- below previous week’s low (26,170.88) by 633.34- This indicates growing sell sentiments when compared with previous posture. The outlook reveals active sell postures. 

In the week just ended, market breadth closed negative at 0.29x against 0.50x recorded in the previous week on the back of negative sentiments. 

Likely trends in the coming periods: We expect mixed sentiments to persist as Market RSI revealed significant decline in bargain strenght. However, the extreme oversold posture of market may incite opportunistic buying.

  

Technically, market sentiments during the bearish week favoured liquid and active stocks of Medium Cap categories in the sector(s) but with stronger positive sentiments in Services sector(s), which further revealed the sector(s) investors patronised in the week.
