The Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE) on Tuesday halted a 10-day slide with a Sh16 billion jump in investor wealth, backed mainly by gains on the EABL and Safaricom stocks.

The bourse closed the day with a market capitalisation of Sh1.836 trillion, up from Sh1.820 trillion on Monday, the first such gain since June 10.
