Dhaka stocks decline with reduced turnover

Dhaka stocks declined for the second trading session on Monday with reduced turnover as investors remained shaky following the recent downtrend in the market. The benchmark general index of Dhaka Stock Exchange, DSEX, closed at 4,665.56 points, shedding 0.46 per cent or 21.63 points on the day. DS30, the blue-chip index of the bourse, fell by 0.24 per cent, or 4.07 points, to finish at 1,681.25 points on the day. The Shariah index of DSE, DSES, declined to 1,012.75 points, shedding 0.67 per cent or 6.87 points.

Turnover of the DSE declined to Tk 401.76 crore on Monday which was Tk 510.65 crore in the previous trading session. Of the 291 shares and mutual funds traded on the day, 115 advanced, 136 declined and 40 remained unchanged. The DSEX turned negative in the last hour of trading as shaky investors sold shares anticipating fall in the late trading session, they said.

The market in the last week declined following conflict between the Bangladesh Bank and the Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission which continued to impact on investors this week as well, they said. Declined participation of the institutional and overseas investors in recent times was another reason behind the shakiness of the retail investors and reduced turnover in the bourse, they said. ‘Flat endings extended to sixth session as market outlook stayed gloomy,’ IDLC Investments said in its daily market commentary. ‘However, a few large capitalised scrips that dominated activity in last several sessions faced marginal corrections during Monday’s session. Besides, micro capitalised scrips declined much ahead of profit booking. Since market remained flat, investors seemed to be indecisive on fresh positioning,’ said IDLC.

Lafarge Surma Cement led the turnover chart as its shares worth Tk 28.59 crore changed hands on Monday. Square Pharmaceuticals, Bangladesh Submarine Cable Company, Olympic Industries, Beximco Pharma, Jamuna Oil, Square Pharmaceuticals, Meghna Petroleum, Grameenphone and Padma Oil were among the other turnover leaders. Safko Spinnings gained the most on the day as its share prices increased by 12.96 per cent, while Al-Haj Textile lost the most shedding 7.91 per cent.
