Then, stock market performance doesn't have anything to do with the percentage of retail/small shareholders as such. Have you had a look at what percentage of shares on the LUSE is held by institutional investors vs retail investors, and done the same for the other stock markets that you list?

The best performing "stock exchange in Africa" was Zambia as its index rose more than 12 per cent while the second best monitored by African Alliance was Botswana (BSE DCI) at 8.3 per cent up and Nigeria (Nig ALSI) rose 7.5 per cent.
Year to date, the NSE (Nairobi Stock Exchange" 20-share index was down 16.5 per cent. At the end of January this year, the index had fallen 0.7 per cent before this accelerated as the year entered its second month.

Sorry to ask McTim, what sources did you base your conclusion that the Zambians cannot afford to buy shares in any company?

I seriously doubt there are many folk in Zim (or Zambia) that can afford to buy stock in any company, given the economic reality in Zim. Corrupt politicians and the kleptocracy, certainly can afford shares.
PS. Do you have an issue with us indigenous mortals?
Only when they steal from their brothers and sisters with impunity.
