Analyst View
Naira appreciated against the dollar by 0.2% at the official window on Friday 5th of November to N414.30/$1 when compared to the previous period rate of N415.10/$1. However, the Naira traded flat against the dollars at the previous rate of N570/$1. The Naira is significantly trailing the Dollar by a wide margin most likely to slide against the USD in days to come as the financial market is still troubled and Nigeria has little or no local alternatives to many imported items. The fallen value of the Naira at the black market rides on hoarding and speculative purchases. However, the recently raised Eurobonds may likely moderate the sliding effect.
The Foreign exchange declined to close at $41.76 billion as of Thursday 5th November 2021.
