Share Price and Market Capitalization at the Close of Specified Days of the Week. 

Friday, December 1st, 2023.

Three indices made gains on this first trading day of December 2023. CBshare (-0.07%) was not one of them, however. As a result, it dropped from first position to fifth out of five, as we see below; while NSE 10 Index jumped from fifth to first. 

The price of a CBshare closed at KES1,645.66 (or US$10.74, at the same forex rate as we saw yesterday -- that is, KES153.25 per US$). Here below is Friday's performance ranking:   

1. NSE 10 Index: +0.93%
2. NSE 25 Index: +0.81% 
3. NASI: +0.37% 
4. NSE 20 Index: -0.04% 
5. CBshare price (25 counters): -0.07%.   

[NOTE: NASI is the abbreviation for Nairobi All Share Index. As of August 3rd, 2023, and going back many months, a total of 56 active counters could be tracked as NASI constituents on NSE's electronic Trading Floor-cum-Platform. In updating the count for its own internal purposes, Unashig excluded the following seven counters due to their lack of detectable, or regular, activity on the Floor: Homeboyz, Uchumi, KPLC (two Preference Share categories), Kurwitu, Kenya Airways, and Mumias Sugar Company. Some of them remain officially suspended by the regulator].

*** KES1,645.66 (US$10.74) is CBshare's new trading price. It will prevail until 5:00 PM Monday, December 4th. As is the practice at the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE) and in keeping with Unashig's pegging principle, a buyer will need to add to the stated price the standard stock trading charges that apply at the NSE -- that is, 3.55% of the price of each CBshare bought (up to nine CBshares in a day's transaction). 
                                                                                     
YTD (Year-To-Date): The price of a CBshare is down 13.18%, while Unashig's portfolio valuation stands at -10.69%. Overall, the market capitalization of the Nairobi Securities Exchange continues to be 26.77% down.
   
Starting from farther back -- at end-of-year 2021 when it closed at KES7,515,735.50  -- Unashig's portfolio valuation has shed 23.76% of its value. NSE's market capitalization level continues to be 43.58% down. 

As a percentage of NSE's immensely larger market valuation, Unashig's market capitalization is unchanged today, at 0.0004%.
