Hi All,
I'm just starting to look into the NSE as an investment destination. Can anyone suggest any reliable data sources? I'm looking for historical data on NSE shares and can't seem to locate any reliable sources.

Also searching for any recent articles on fund manager performance in Kenya.


Any help would be HIGHLY appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks. Any useful, thought out answers welcome.

Ehh...company accounts?

Its a shame we have no readily available historical data of the nse from way back...like from the 80,s when the index was at 100pts...Id like to know the valuation of stocks then.

Nse outsourced those services to data vendors,check from their website to see the vendors.Alternatively,if you are able to log into my stocks the one for CFC you can be able to get the data from about 2002.

Thats over 800k!!! Why cant our brokers make themselves useful and provide this data for their clients...I once asked my broker for historical data all the way from the 80's and he looked at me as if I was crazy.Without this knowledge we are living in a fools paradise...how can one know what is cheap and what is expensive as regards the NSE?

As a new investor, I am willing to admit when I do something stupid - or "idiotic" as you so eloquently put it. Nor am I adverse to asking obvious, basic questions. But pray tell, which "Investment" tab are you talking about and on which website?

you quote " a few of the other respondents concept of background research is reading recent stock price" na wewe ndio haujui how to use wazua to look at history.
Okay lets start open your internet browser( i hope you know what that it). Type www.wazua.co.ke.
Once the page loads depending on how long it takes look at the coloured tabs below the logo. the investor tab is blue. Click on it. On teh side of that page their is another blue tab called services and tools which is also blue. There you will get a large number of tools that can help a "new"( have you been new since 2008 when you joined stockskenya) investor who thinks the people who were contributing had no idea how to determine if prices are high or low.
For history go to stock profiler and you will get the history on prices some going up to 10 years.

So dear passive investor wewe ni fala and looking down on people who have more info than you is not wise.
If you are colour blind pole if you dont understand english then the instructions I gave you will not be helpful and my insult will not sting.

Thanks. I stand corrected.
