Jitters linger over shares

Star Business Report
A bearish trend continued in the Dhaka market last week with investors treading cautiously after the central bank's intervention.
Stocks prices slipped for four days from the first trading day of last week.
Panic swept through the market after Bangladesh Bank asked all banks to submit details about their stock portfolios every month.
A cautious move in trading by the banks, which are considered key market players, also influenced general investors to go for wait-and-see policy, analysts said.
The market however recovered by some points on Thursday, last trading day of the week, after the Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) authorities alleged that the central bank's intervention had dampened market spirits.
The benchmark DSE General Index fell 86.19 points, or 2.89 percent, to 2,896.49 week-on-week. The DSE All Share Price Index declined 66.25 points, or 2.66 percent, to 2,427.66.
"The market has shown some resistance with moderate turnover," Equity Partners Limited (EPL), said in its weekly market analysis.
A drop in the general index was driven by the banks, which lost about 3 percent despite an impressive half-yearly disclosure, the EPL analysis said.
“Although the market was expecting a slight slowdown in the profit growth of banks due to the global financial crisis, they still managed to exhibit a growth. However, the growth in profit figure does not have any reflection in the price performance," it said.
Another significant decrease occurred in the fuel and power sector last week. With the newly formed government, investors' expectations increased substantially for this sector as the government has shown their prime interest in the development of power sector.
The food and allied sector gained more than 5 percent last week that was mainly because of gains in prices of BATBC. •BATBC, which contains more than 70 percent market cap in the sector, posted a half-yearly profit growth of 47 percent year on year.
"The growth of the company was slightly more than what market expected that had a positive impact on its price performance," the EPL analysis said.
The IT sector also started gaining as market was expecting Wimax licence that promises to boost profits. The Wimax technology is about to be launched in the country shortly.
The losers beat the advancers 148 to 91. One security remained unchanged. A total of 17,81,59,025 shares traded on the DSE, marking a 1.96 percent fall.
Chittagong stocks also declined. The CSE Selective Categories Index slipped 2.1 percent to 6.380.81 points. The CSE All Share Price Index slid 2.16 percent to 10,163.95 points.
