Last week, continued selloffs dragged the market return for the year deep into the negative territory.
The release of some impressive financial scorecards and dividend declaration failed to spur positive investor sentiment in the market.
During the week, several counters reached their year low points and are trading at attractive prices.
Also, market heavyweight, Dangote Cement, dipped significantly last week, creating room for bargain hunting on the counter.
These attractive prices are expected to spur bargain hunting activities in the market, ensuring a positive close, according to analysts at Meristem Research.
The investment research firm has picked five stocks as its top picks for the week and they are Access Bank, Dangote Cement, NASCON, Nigerian Breweries and Zenith Bank.
