Daily market updates, weekly roundups, stock analysis, and investor education — everything you need to navigate the Nairobi Securities Exchange.
Weekly market wrap — 11 to 15 May 2026 It's not often you read a market report where the All-Share Index rose more than 2% in a week and the NSE 20 fell. This was one of those weeks. The reason it happened — and what it tells you about how to read Kenyan equities — is worth a few minutes of your time, whether you own a single share or run a CDS account that pays your school fees.
The Nairobi bourse closed marginally lower on Friday as a quiet session ended a soft week, with the benchmark NSE 20-Share Index slipping 7.38 points to 3,524.70, a 0.21% retreat from Thursday's 3,532.08 close. The broader NSE All-Share Index (NASI) eased 1.04 points to 205.60, a 0.5% decline that signalled wider weakness beneath the blue-chip surface.
