After yesterday’s trading at the NSE, our portfolio lost a total of KES 670. Most of our holdings recorded drops in their closing prices at the NSE following days of upward share price movements. Our holdings in the banking segment of the NSE lost us a total of KES 105 with Barclays and KCB each closing 25 cents down while Housing Finance closed with an improvement of 20 cents per share diluting our losses from the segment. Kenya Re was our biggest loser in yesterday’s trading, down 75 cents and contributing KES 900 to our losses. Mumias Sugar and Uchumi however gained 10 cents and 50 cents respectively to water down our Kenya Re losses.
In total, out portfolio lost 0.692% of its value while the NSE closed 0.25% using the NSE 20 share index as a benchmark.
