Stocks get back to black

Star Business Report
After a five-day losing streak stocks returned to black yesterday, as investors went on a buying spree due to the low inflation.
“Falling inflation is a positive indication for the stockmarket, and also helpful for achieving the targeted 7 percent GDP growth,” said Rakibur Rahman, president of the DSE.
Using the new base year of 2005-06, inflation for the month of July, which stood at 8.03 percent given the old base year of1995-96, fell to 5.21 percent.
DGEN, the benchmark General Index of the Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE), which lost 245.10 points in the last five days, gained 52.41 points, or 1.29 percent, to close the day at4,092.28 points.
The session started on a high note, with 83 points gained in the first half, but slowed down progressively due to regular selling pressure.
“Active participation of institutions had been instrumental behind the rise. Retail investors, too, placed fresh 'buy' orders,” IDLC Investments said.
“The market made a slow recovery as
some of the withdrawn capital for Eid was ploughed back into the market,” LankaBangla Securities said.
Turnover, the most vital market indicator, stood at Tk 239 crore, a 17.46 percent rise from the previous day.
A total of 0.77 lakh trades were executed on the Dhaka bourse, with 6.27 crore shares and mutual fund units changing hands.
Of the 269 issues that traded during the day, 203 advanced, 41 declined and 25 remained unchanged.
All the major sectors gained in prices, with textiles rising by 3.14 percent, engineering by 2.10 percent, non-life insurance 2.04 percent and power 1.99 percent.
However, banking sector, the usual turnover leader, observed slow movement of 0.69 percent.
RN Spinning Mills was the top traded stock of the day thanks to its transaction of 64.87 lakh shares worth Tk 17.91 crore.
Monno Ceramic was the day's biggest gainer, posting a rise of 9.51 percent, while Samata Leather Complex, plunging by 9.49 percent, lost the most.
