As festive mood still lingers, Nepse sheds 12.78 points; turnover of just Rs 10.2 crore

ShareSansar, October 8:
The benchmark index of Nepal Stock Exchange Limited (Nepse) shed 12.78 points or 1.36 percent on the first day of trading after the Dashain holidays, to close at 925.21 level.
The market was sluggish today for the obvious reasons. Millions of people who had left the capital to their respective home districts are yet to return to Kathmandu where the real trading of stock take place. Likewise, today was also the first day of trading of demat shares – that too of commercial banks which comprise around 80 percent of the market cap -- through CDS, which the investors, especially the general ones, are not yet fully familiar with. The market may also have been slightly affected by the recent political standoff between major parties, though the parties are trying hard to forge consensus on the constitution drafting process.
Looking at group-wise trading, the Banking group shed modest 9.88 points, Development Banks shed 3.88 points and Finance companies lost just 0.37 points. Hotels, too, shed merely 7.89 points. The Hydropower and Insurance groups were the major losers. Hydropower sub-index shed 114.64 points while the Insurance group lost 99.29 points. The remaining two sub-indices –Manufacturing and Others group did not witness any trading today.
The total market turnover also stood at just Rs 10.21 crore.
