    Trading reopened for the week on the Nigerians Stock Exchange (NSE) with a growth of 0.16 per cent, extending the bullish run to five consecutive trading sessions.

    The market growth was championed by Nestle Nigeria, Presco, Dangote Sugar Refinery, Cadbury Nigeria and Guaranty Trust Bank.

    Analysts at Afrinvest Limited expected the local bourse to sustain gains as investors continue to take position in fundamentally sound stocks, given the Open Market Operation (OMO) and Treasury Bill (T-Bill) restrictions.

    A breakdown of the gainers’ chart shows that Law Union & Rock Insurance recorded the highest price in percentage terms, improving by 10 per cent to close at 66k per share.
