As we can see our PesaPortfolio lost value and now stands at KES 99,100. This is a drop of KES 525 from KES 99,625 as at the close of business on Thursday 17th.

The fall can be attributed to a drop in the value of the following shares:

  • The KCB share fell by 75 cents resulting in a portfolio loss of KES 750.
  • The Kenya-Re share fell by 10 cents resulting in a portfolio loss of KES 120.
  • The KenGen share fell by 5 cents resulting in a portfolio loss of KES 65.

The shares that rose in value were:

  • Housing Finance which rose by 10 cents resulting in a portfolio increase of KES 110.
  • Crown Berger which rose by 50 cents resulting in a portfolio increase of KES 300.

The offsetting of the increases and the drops resulted in a net loss of KES 525.
