The JSE Securities Exchange (JSE) was in the red in noon trade on Tuesday, dragged down by weaker world markets, a lower gold price and a general lack of buying interest. Volumes were relatively light and with many players on holiday, it is expected to be a quiet week. By 11.57am, the all-share index shed 0,61%.
The JSE Securities Exchange (JSE) was weaker at midday on Friday due to profit-taking after Thursday’s closeout and the stronger rand. Trades stemming from the closeout boosted volumes, but otherwise the market was very quiet, dealers said. By 11.59am, the all-share and all-share industrials shed 0,42% and 0,51% respectively.
The JSE Securities Exchange (JSE) was riding high in noon trade on Thursday, buoyed by a weaker rand and demand for stock ahead of the afternoon’s futures closeout. Most of the gains were seen at the top end of the market — decliners outnumbered advancers on the all-share index by 67 to 51, but on the Top 40 index, 26 shares were up and only 15 were down.
The JSE Securities Exchange (JSE) was slightly stronger in noon trade on Wednesday, with a softer rand supporting resources stocks. The heavy weight of resources kept the bourse in the black, even though decliners outnumbered advancers on the resources index by about two to one.
The JSE Securities Exchange (JSE) rallied to a new high on Tuesday morning, fuelled by the rand, which broke above the psychological R6 per dollar level. There was no other news to give the bourse direction, dealers said. By 12.06pm, the all-share index added 0,3% to 13 685,84. It touched a record high of 13 674,360 earlier in the session.
The JSE Securities Exchange (JSE) was weaker just before noon on Friday due to selling in resources heavyweights BHP Billiton and Anglo American out of London. Lack of interest from local players contributed to the market’s weakness, dealers said. By 11.52am, the all-share index shed 0,54%.
After taking a breather on Wednesday, the JSE Securities Exchange resumed its push to record highs on Thursday when strength in heavyweight dual-listed stocks offshore encouraged futures related buying locally. By 12.05pm, the all share index was up 0,52% at 13 526,2 after earlier reaching a highest ever 13 557,19.
The JSE Securities Exchange was weaker just after noon on Wednesday, with heavyweight dual-listed stocks coming under pressure offshore. The losses came despite a softer rand. By 12.17pm, the all share index shed 0,43%. Resources retreated 1,12%, with the gold and platinum mining indices losing 1,26% and 1,03% respectively.
The JSE Securities Exchange (JSE) was modestly firmer in noon trade on Tuesday, helped by a weakening rand. However, weaker United States markets overnight and a high oil price were dampening sentiment and keeping the bourse in check, dealers said. By 11.55am, the all-share index was up 0,11%.
