ECONOMYNEXT – Sri Lanka stocks closed down 1.96 percent on Tuesday dragged by financials, as the market continued a pull-back, brokers said.

The broader ASPI closed down 1.96 percent, or 326.72 points, at 16,345.01; while the more liquid S&P SL20 Index closed down 2.05 percent, or 102.26 points, at 4,897.31.

Stocks fell amid relatively thin turnover, brokers said.

There was a turnover of 2.3 billion rupees in the session.

The indices have gradually declined throughout the session with a bit volatility seen during midday trading.

Following the announcements of quarterly results and dividends, investor interest continues to move from financials, analysts said.

Banks have reported sharply higher earnings amid sovereign bond provision reversals, but not all banks have reported healthy net income growth.

Sampath Bank closed 1.0 percent weaker at 120.50 rupees, DFCC Bank closed down 0.4 percent at 120.00 rupees, NDB fell 1.3 percent to 116.75 rupees and Nation’s Trust Bank down 2.4 percent to 202.00.
