On the Offer Cart: SEPLAT shed 907bps to settle at N 500.00 (its year-low) after sessions of gains seen at the end of the month of May from its previous year-low ( N 520.00). The sharp decline could likely be a result of the decline in the global oil price and profit taking on the soft gains on the stock . The Oil & Gas heavyweight has declined 22% YTD. Likewise, VITAFOAM shed 941bps from its year-high of N 4.25 to settle at N 3.85. The dip in the price is also likely a result of profit taking on the 16% premium to its year open. The stock has returned 5% YTD.
