Trading on equity on the floor of the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) closed yesterday on a positive note after two days of bearish trade, as the market capitalization added N52 billion to close at N12,100 trillion.

Market breadth closed positive as CHAMPION led 24 gainers as against 22 losers topped by MORISON at the end of yesterday’s session – an improved performance when compared with previous outlook.

The summary of the market activities revealed that a total of 136 million shares, valued at N1.2 billion, exchanged hands in 2,860 deals
