Covid-19: Impact on the Financial Market

The events of the past quarter compounded by the global CoronaVirus (COVID-19) crisis and its massive impact on financial markets in the short to medium term brings a feeling of déjà vu. To reduce the spread of the virus, nations have restricted trade, travel, and in extreme cases closed their borders. Amidst all this, an oil price war between Saudi Arabia and Russia has pushed the price of crude oil below $35 per barrel.

These two factors have had an adverse impact on global economies; with governments around the world including the Nigerian government, responding with the introduction of stimulus packages to keep their economies from slipping into recession.

Despite any negative sentiments attached to current events, it is worthy of note that markets have a good record of overcoming global economic shocks as seen below:

  • In early 2003, a similar pandemic called “the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome” or (SARS) broke out in China and was not fully contained until eight months after the initial outbreak. However, the Chinese economy recovered and recorded a GDP growth of 10% in Q3 2003.
  • In 2015, Nigeria, like other global economies faced an economic crisis. The equity market declined 17% as global oil prices plunged to below $40 per barrel. However, investors who took a longer-term view during the crisis have fared better as markets have recovered from their lows.

The key takeaways:

  • The markets have a very good record of recovering from economic shocks.
  • We cannot time the market by consistently calling the bottom or the top, but we benefit most when we systematically invest over the long term. Market downturns provoke extreme reactions – sell late in a bear market or too early when the market turns – and this is not any different.

Way Forward for investors

From our experience, our conclusion is that it remains profitable to invest in financial markets with a long-term view.

The graph below shows the performance of the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) All Share Index from 2010 to date. Whilst the asset class has under-performed over short periods, we caution investors not to write off this asset class as the volatility creates opportunities for strong positive performance over the long-term. Investors have also profited by applying rigorous research in stock selection and by maintaining a disciplined investment process. Similarly, investing in fixed income securities over the medium term has provided a good hedge against inflation as the Federal Government securities over the last 5 years delivered average annual returns of 19%, well in excess of inflation.

For investors with an above average risk appetite, there are opportunities in specific sectors of the economy such as Telecoms, where companies earning capacity will not be significantly impacted by current events, and Consumer Goods where there are companies that have the ability to withstand market shocks. Furthermore, asset prices have declined significantly to record low levels, creating compelling entry prices as new year lows are redefined. Dividend yields remain attractive across a number of companies that have maintained strong fundamentals. (e.g. Tier-1 banking names such Zenith Bank and Guaranty Trust Bank).

For investors with lower risk appetite, we would advise on a re-allocation from risky assets to money market- based investments (such ARM Money Market Fund) because of their potential for steady and competitive returns in the short term.

Final words

Although we should expect substantial market volatility in the short term, investors who are able to maintain discipline and take a longer-term horizon to investing would make it through the down cycle to enjoy the benefits of an inevitable rebound.

Financial Planning with Raphael: Considering Foreign Currency As An Investment

The Coronavirus pandemic has had an adverse effect on major economies worldwide. As countries have closed their borders and restricted non-essential travel, this development has led to an impactful decrease in the global demand for crude oil and, subsequently, a correlating fall in crude oil prices. Furthermore, an ongoing oil price war led by Saudi Arabia and Russia has resulted in historic increases in unwelcome supply and a further catalyst of the decline in oil prices.

With the bulk of Nigeria’s foreign reserves stemming from the exportation of crude oil, the global decline in oil prices has strongly affected confidence in the country’s economy and currency. The flight-to-safety phenomenon has led foreign portfolio investors to exit their investments in the Nigerian – a move which has led to the depletion in Nigeria’s already precarious foreign reserves. In February 2020, Nigeria’s FX reserves declined to $36.36 billion, a 4.5% decline from the reserves’ January position at $38.1 billion.

Consequently, in the past few weeks, there has been substantial demand in the US Dollar as investors have sought to convert their Naira savings as a hedge for the growing expectation that there will be a deep devaluation of the Naira, even amidst the CBN’s denials that there are no plans for a devaluation.

However, on March 20th, 2020, as a result of steep declines in crude oil prices, the CBN issued a circular which effectively established a convergence of the multiple exchange rates for the naira. Nigeria will now observe a single exchange rate for all transactions. At both the Bureau De Change and Import & Export Window (I&E), the new end-user price has moved from N366.7 / $1 to N380.2 / $1. The CBN said that the decision to peg the exchange rate of the naira at N380 / $1 is not a devaluation of the currency but, rather, an adjustment of the rate. However, many still believe that a further devaluation is to be expected.

Amidst the turmoil and panic, the following questions must be considered:

  • What if there is no further devaluation of the Naira?
  • What happens if the pandemic is resolved sooner than later?
  • What will happen if the oil price war ceases and oil prices rise back up?

Unfortunately, these questions can only be answered with certainty in hindsight. However, the savvy investor must ensure that, regardless of the outcome, their savings remain protected and unsystematic risks remain low. Following the Financial Planning Principle for the effective management of your funds, investments in foreign currencies should be strongly considered for the following reasons:

  1. Diversification of the potential risks associated with solely holding the Naira currency
  2. Current and future Dollar-denominated obligations
  3. Hedge as a means of protection against the depreciation or devaluation of the Naira

Opportunities to look into

In achieving the objectives above while gaining competitive returns, kindly see below the following opportunities for investment:

  • ARM Eurobond Mutual Fund – A US dollar-denominated mutual fund that is authorized to invest in Eurobonds floated by the Federal Government of Nigeria and highly rated Nigerian corporates;
  • Eurobond investments– ARM Investment Managers offer investors access to invest directly in domestically issued Eurobonds; and
  • ARM Stocktrade ARM’s proprietary mobile trading platform that provides access to trade domestic and international equities listed on the largest stock exchanges in the world.

ASK SHADE: My siblings are not happy I adopted a child

ASK SHADE: My siblings are not happy I adopted a child

Dear Shade,

I just turned 50 and decided to adopt a child since I never got married nor have a child. This 3-day-old baby is God’s gift to me and while I want to be around for a long time to see her go to the university and even get married, I know I cannot guarantee it. I’m not a prophet of doom but as a realist, I want to take measures to secure her future mainly because my other two siblings and their children have greatly benefitted from me financially and they didn’t seem happy when I adopted a child. 

Thank you.

Ayomide from Akure

 

Dear Ayomide,

Happy belated birthday and congratulations on your bundle of joy.

Your desire to secure your daughter’s future is applaudable and very responsible as people usually ignore the need to do so. They are either distracted by their day to day activities or are simply in self-denial of the fact that we are all mortals. Also, the fact that your siblings and their children sometimes financially depend on you is the more reason why you should take steps to secure your child’s future.

To efficiently and effectively secure your daughter’s future, you would require a structure that would ensure minimal exposure to any dispute arising from your extended family, considering their reception to your decision to adopt your daughter. Setting up a Trust could be a good beginning because it affords you the ability to make provisions for your daughter by transferring your assets to a neutral, unbiased third party known as a Trustee and name specific beneficiaries who would benefit from the Trust. This ensures the protection of your assets as they would only be made available to the named beneficiary or beneficiaries upon eventuality.

Other estate planning devices such as the Easy Will may also be drafted to complement the Trust. The Will may be necessary to transfer or dispose of your personal assets such as your bank accounts, pension, pieces of jewelry and personal belongings.

I felicitate with you once again Ayomide and wish you the very best in your endeavors.

Cheers,

‘Shade

January Inflation: CPI maintained upward trajectory

As anticipated, inflation for the month of January ascended by 15bps to 12.13% YoY (vs December: 11.98% YoY) and 4bps shy of our estimate of 12.09% YoY. In our monthly economic update, we highlighted that the low base from food prices would send inflation on an upward trajectory. Unsurprisingly, food inflation rose 18bps to 14.85% YoY, accounting for bulk of the uptick in headline inflation, while core inflation moderately expanded by 3bps to 9.35% YoY. On the former, the pickup was anchored by 29bps and 6bps increase in farm produce and imported food to 15.35% YoY and 16.10% YoY respectively. Nonetheless, the buoyant supply from main harvest season has helped in moderating the pace of increase. Also, Core inflation ticked up by 3bps to 9.35% YoY, reflecting increases in HWEGF (+8bps to 7.78%), Transport (+10bps to 9.35% YoY), Health (+19bps to 9.78% YoY) amongst others.

Following similar trend, Month-on-month numbers rose slightly by 2bps to 0.87% MoM (3bps shy of our estimate: 0.84% MoM) due to minute expansion in both core and food inflation. Food inflation ticked up 1bp to 0.99% MoM mirroring 2bps expansion to 0.93% MoM in farm produce. Similarly, core inflation rose 1bp to 0.82% MoM following increases in HWEGF, Health, Transport, Clothing, Education.

We retain our view for an expanse in headline inflation owing to two key factors. First is the lingering impact of the low base on food inflation. Secondly, the increase in VAT from 5% to 7.5% which took effect from 1st of February 2020 with the aim of the generating more revenues for the government is expected filter into inflation numbers. Consequently, we expect the northward trend to persist, with headline inflation for the month of February printing at 12.3% YoY and 0.88% MoM. Against this backdrop, we expect average inflation for 2020 to print at 13.0% (FY 19: 11.4%).

Stock Recommendation for the Week, February 17

The Nigerian equities market maintained a downward trend with the ASI, dropping by 1.11% to 27,755.9 pts, with the market capitalization closing at N14.46 trillion as investors lost N162 billion during the prior week. All sectors closed negative WoW except Cement (+0.37%) and Construction (+0.13%). The deterioration was driven by the Food (-7.27%), Brewers (-2.02%), Oil & Gas (-1.34%), Insurance (-0.94%), Telecoms (-0.53%) and Banking (-0.21%) sectors. The key losers are NESTLE (-10.00%), DANGSUGA (-4.10%), GUINNESS (-16.56%) and MTNN (-0.85%), while GTB (+1.36%), BUA CEMENT (+1.13%) and WAPCO (+1.31%) yielded positive returns.

• Dangcem– STRONG BUY (FVE: N240.87): DANGCEM’s FY 19 earnings is expected to be pressured (EPS: N14, vs N22 in 2018) owing to lower volumes in Nigeria business (due to increased competition from BUA Cement) and some of its Pan Africa business, as well as high base of tax credits from 2018. However, DANGCEM currently trades at FY 19E P/E of 11x on our estimates, which is cheap compared to WAPCO and CCNN of 17.7x and 16.8x, respectively. We believe current valuation is unjustified given the superior ROE of 24%.

• Zenith Bank Plc – STRONG BUY (FVE: N31.50): Zenith bank 9M results saw a moderate expansion in PBT and PAT by 5.3% and 4.5% YoY respectively. We note however, that the banks valuation may remain depressed in the near-term given the regulatory overhang over the industry. Nonetheless, at current levels and based on our FY 19E dividend of N2.90, we view expected dividend yield of 15% as attractive and could be compelling to investors. We value Zenith at N31.50 which implies STRONG BUY by our recommendation.

• Guaranty Trust Bank Plc – STRONG BUY (FVE: N49.66): GTB’s 9M 19 earnings expanded modestly with PAT and EPS expanding only 3.4% YoY to N146.9 billion and N4.99/share respectively. Although we expect slower growth in EPS (+4% YoY to N6.53) over 2019, our case for GUARANTY remains the resilience in NIR, improved cost management, still strong loan book with moderate expansion in credit loss provision to 0.5%.

• Nestle Plc – OVERWEIGHT (FVE: N1447.39): Amongst the food producers, Nestle Nigeria Plc has managed to stay afloat, reporting modest growth in earnings amidst incessant competition. For 9M 19, EPS expanded by 11.2% YoY to N46.48 driven largely by the absence of impairment charges which created a high base for input costs over the same period last year. Asides from improved earnings, its strong cash balance, return on equity and 100% dividend payout further supports the case for an OVERWEIGHT rating.

• Seplat Plc – STRONG BUY (FVE: N828.90): Seplat’s total production declined in Q3 19, as the drop in gas production offset improvement in the oil segment. That said, we remain positive on growth in production (especially in oil) into 2020 as Seplat increases capex. Cashflows remain healthy. Upsides reside in the ANOH Gas project and acquisition of Eland Oil & Gas Limited, while decline in oil prices pose a threat to our estimates.

Stock Recommendation for the Week, February 10

Last week, the Nigerian bourse witnessed a steep decline as the ASI closed -2.69% WoW, while market capitalization lost N239 billion to close at N14.62 trillion. All sectors closed in red, save the insurance sector (+0.15%). The decline was anchored by the Breweries (-5.62%), Cement (-4.94%), Banking (-2.26%), Oil & Gas (-5.74%), and Telecom (-1.48%) sectors. On stock performance, FBNH (-8.40%), ZENITH (-5.04%), NB (-6.36%), INTBREW (-5.56%), DANGCEM (-5.50%), BUACEMENT (-4.32%) and MTNN (-2.17%) yielded negative returns amongst other stocks.

• Dangcem– STRONG BUY (FVE: N240.87): DANGCEM’s FY 19 earnings is expected to be pressured (EPS: N14, vs N22 in 2018) owing to lower volumes in Nigeria business (due to increased competition from BUA Cement) and some of its Pan Africa business, as well as high base of tax credits from 2018. However, DANGCEM currently trades at FY 19E P/E of 11x on our estimates, which is cheap compared to WAPCO and CCNN of 17.7x and 16.8x, respectively. We believe current valuation is unjustified given the superior ROE of 24%.

• Zenith Bank Plc – STRONG BUY (FVE: N31.50): We have made adjustment to our FY 2019 expectation for Zenith Bank following some surprises in the Q2 numbers. In specifics, we revised net interest income lower due to compressed yields on its loans and treasury asset (H1 18:10.6%, H1 19 9.1%) amidst contraction in funding cost. Elsewhere, we adjusted NIR higher due to upward review of electronic fee income and trading book. Thus, we now forecast PBT of N218 billion (-5.5% YoY), while we cut our FVE to N31.57/share (previously: N33.71/share).

• Guaranty Trust Bank Plc – STRONG BUY (FVE: N49.66): GTB’s 9M 19 earnings expanded modestly with PAT and EPS expanding only 3.4% YoY to N146.9 billion and N4.99/share respectively. Although, we expect a slower growth in EPS (+4% YoY to N6.53) over 2019, our case for GUARANTY remains the resilience in NIR, improved cost management, still strong loan book with a moderate expansion in credit loss provision to 0.5%.

• Nigerian Breweries Plc – STRONG BUY (FVE: N75.82): With intense competition from International Breweries (IB) and graduated excise duty (+17% YoY) that kicked-off in Jan-19, revenue growth is expected to be slow even as we expect higher finance cost (+38% YoY) to be another pressure point to earnings this year. However, given our case for a slight improvement in volumes and decline in cost of sales (-1.1% YoY) which translates to gross (+120bps YoY) and EBIT (+101bps YoY) margin expansion, the misery seems moderated. Overall, the net impact of all our adjustments translates to PBT of N29.9 billion and EPS of N2.58 (+6.3% YoY) over 2019.

• Seplat Plc – STRONG BUY (FVE: N828.90): Seplat’s total production declined in Q3 19, as the drop in gas production offset improvement in the oil segment. That said, we remain positive on growth in production going into the final quarter of the year (especially in oil) and into 2020 as Seplat increases capex. Cashflows remain healthy. Upsides reside in the ANOH Gas project and acquisition of Eland Oil & Gas Limited.

ASK SHADE: Help! My husband buys assets in his name alone

ASK SHADE: Help! My husband buys assets in his name alone

Dear Shade,

My husband wants me to include his name on the documents of the properties I bought before we got married. I refused to. Now, he buys assets in his name only saying I started it first. What do I do? Should I ignore him? Or would you advise me to start buying my own assets in my name only or heed to his request for peace to reign? I’m confused.

Joy from Jos.

 

Dear Joy,

I appreciate you reaching out to me on this rather personal and sensitive subject.

Couples are at liberty to purchase property either individually or jointly, but it may be advisable to evaluate one’s matrimonial situation critically before making decisions on whether to purchase assets in one’s personal name or as joint owners with one’s spouse.

It is not an abominable act for spouses to purchase assets in their personal names. In Nigeria, the purchase of assets jointly by spouses could be interpreted to symbolize unity and synergy within a marriage and could increase the bond between spouses, thereby making them feel relevant to the other spouse.

Joint ownership of assets may also be considered as an estate planning option for many spouses, given that the surviving owner eventually ends up owning the asset, which may be utilized to catering for expenses as the need may arise, rather than having the assets frozen and unreachable. However, it is important to bear in mind that in the event of a simultaneous demise of both spouses, distribution of the jointly owned properties would be subjected to intestacy laws and may not reflect the true intentions of the owners.

I would therefore advise that you discuss your options with your husband and enlighten him on the estate planning benefit of joint ownership and the dangers of having sole ownership as the only plan. Other Estate planning tools such as Wills and Trust may be used to further secure a solid estate plan.

I do hope that I have been able to be of help to ease your concerns and I wish you all the very best in your marriage.

 

Cheers!
