Analysts expected the enhanced payouts that have followed a recovery in profitability last year to spur a rally in share prices as investors eye a slice of the dividends, but this has failed to materialise.

The raft of dividend announcements and record earnings made in the past three weeks has failed to excite the stock market, with share prices registering muted growth.

Day trading allows investors to buy and sell the same company shares several times in a single day with the aim of making gains from small price movements, sometimes riding on events that sway share prices.

Same-day trading of shares accounted for only 3.4 percent of total deals at the Nairobi bourse, reflecting investors’ apathy towards buying and selling securities multiple times in a single day

Investors can now buy and sell the same company shares several times during a single day taking advantage of small price movements.

The Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE) finally launched day trading on Monday, two years after setting up a system that separates trading and post-trading activities hence allowing for trading positions several times during the day.

The move is welcome news for investors and traders looking to make gains from small price movements and timely events that can sway share prices.

A US government agency has delayed the disbursement of a $500million (Sh53.97 billion) loan to finance the entry of a Safaricom-led consortium into the Ethiopian telecoms market, citing uncertainty over the ongoing unrest in the country’s Tigray region.

“DFC is working closely with its partner agencies in the US government to monitor the situation in Tigray and will carefully consider its impact on any potential financing of the Vodafone consortium,” the US State agency told the Business Daily in an e-mail response.

The Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE) will introduce day trading from next month to deepen capital markets, where turnover and trading activity has remained flat in recent years.

The NSE said on Tuesday it had received approval from the Capital Markets Authority (CMA) for the roll out of day trading on 22 November.

Day trading refers to the practice of purchasing and selling a security within a single day or trading session or multiple times over the course of the day.

“Day trading is a welcome move for local investors who have previously lobbied for the activation of the intraday trading, as they seek to take advantage of intraday price movements and increase their profit margins,” said Mr Odundo.

“Day trading will allow investors to trade on one position, two or three times per day,” said NSE Chairman, Kiprono Kittony.
