Comparable gains, narrow trading and lower bill yields
Friday rose, but one bank still carried most trading value
Signal
4,444.48 and 9,924.23 rose 1.36% and 2.01% from comparable Thursday levels; NMB supplied 83.8% of TZS 10.200bn turnover.
Why it matters
The index gains were valid, but seven counters rose and nine fell while one bank carried most value.
What to watch
The next official close tests whether traded value spreads beyond NMB and whether more counters rise than fall.
Did the domestic market and the headline index tell the same story over the covered quarter?

Equity liquidity
NMB supplied more than four fifths of Friday equity turnover
Signal
NMB supplied TZS 8.543bn of the verified TZS 10.200bn equity turnover on 28 August.
Why it matters
Twenty counters traded, but NMB carried 83.8% of value while seven counters rose and nine fell.
What to watch
The next verified close tests whether value spreads beyond one counter and whether breadth improves.
Sovereign rates
Auction 1205 lowered every verified Treasury bill tenor
Signal
The 91-day and 364-day yields fell 4.29 and 9.49 basis points from Auction 1204; the 182-day decline was larger at 12.57 basis points.
Why it matters
All four tenors moved lower, but one auction does not establish a lasting rate cycle.
What to watch
The next dated BoT bill result tests whether the all-tenor decline persists.
Foreign exchange
The official USD/TZS mean moved only slightly through the weekend
Signal
The BoT USD/TZS mean was 2,639.8763 on 31 August, 0.13% below the 27 August observation.
Why it matters
The move was small and stayed inside the recent official range. It does not establish a new currency regime.
What to watch
The next dated BoT sheet tests whether the mean moves beyond its narrow recent range.
