From the trading activity that took place:
- A continuous sell-off trend in Oceana Group’s shares increases.
- Shoprite Holdings loses its good performance streak as shares were sold-off by the public.
- As Covid-19 rallies, health care also advances raising confidence in investors to buy more of Mediclinic International’s shares.
