Analyst View
Naira depreciated by 0.2% at the official window from its previous rate of N414.300/$1 to a new  N415.10/$1 as of Wednesday, October 113th, 2021. The Naira also closed flat at the parallel market maintaining the previous price of N568/1$. The Naira is significantly trailing the Dollar by a wide margin most likely to slide against the USD in days to come as the financial market is still troubled and Nigeria has little or no local alternatives to many imported items. The fallen value of the Naira at the black market rides on hoarding and speculative purchases.
