Selloffs in Banks Shares, IntBrew Trigger Mid-day Loss on NGX

The Nigerian stock market shed N66 billion yesterday as bears held sway. In a mid-day note by Alpha Morgan Capital, stockbrokers told clients via an email that the market is currently tracking downward. The selloffs pattern has persisted following interest rate adjustment that saw spot rates jerking up.
