@jmbada karibu; lakini, you've not taken the time to read through the thread evidently.

You would realise @stocksmaster trades used real money. Quite separate from the faNtaSEy market where people trade with virtual KShs 500,000.

By the way, the issue you refer to was well discussed in this thread IMPACT FACTOR OF WAZUA ON THE NSE.

@jmbada. As you put it you are new or disguised as new according to some other school of thought. We can see that is ur 1st posting. It is important that you know that your language is also new! Take ur time to style up. You should also join faNtaSEy market and show us what u r made of. Welcome bro/sis.

@Jmbada, the funniest thing is that the best ever anaylsis that you'll ever find on Kenyan stocks will be on this forum and yes i know of a couple of people who invest good money on the basis of this forum!

jmbada, just eat humble pie. Wazuans are very forgiving

jmbada, as muganda would say, the measure of a man...
I hope you wouldn't mind sharing some of the stocks you think are worthwhile investing in. With reasons of course
Welcome To Wazua

Tony, thanks for the welcome.
To begin with, I attributed the nasty comments I saw to you hence the tone of my earlier response. Obviously it was someone else and not you. That was my error.

As I've already stated, I have no ill-will to anyone, but I will disagree and state my alternate viewpoint when I want to share one.

No-one's actually answered my question as to whether or not a considerable grouping of investors in Kenya actually place Real Money trades based on a few anonymous parties' postings on alleged trades. I was referred to another discussion thread that provided ANECDOTAL evidence that some investors may be following online anonymous postings, but it didn't really prove anything one way or the other.
I do maintain and will never change my mind that anyone who buys / sells securities based on an anonymous posting (including my own) IS behaving like an inexperienced investort (acceptable, since we all have to start from somewhere) an idiot or a muppet / puppet (operating on someone else's whims). I will NEVER change that viewpoint and make no apologies for it.

@erifloss:
1.Nobody takes Buffet's thoughts as gospel truth because he doesn't share any until well after locking in valuable positions. If you mean his general principle that you should buy a share in a company using the same approach as though you were buying the whole company...well yes SOME people follow that, but not most (otherwise there would not be so many stupid acquisitions / spinoffs / crashes, etc.)
2.I do not conduct technical analysis as there is absolutely no single technical investor who has ever demonstrated that they've made money in stocks. There is some anecdotal evidence that it works for commodities markets.
3.Agree with you, yes, we all emulate someone else's strategy as there is nothing new under the sun. However, if one emulates someone without really knowing who they are, what they stand for, what they've actually truly invested, what their strengths and weaknesses are, then one cannot fail but to accept that they are behaving illogically (or less politically-correctly like a danda).
PS
I have done this PLENTY of times before, and do not hesitate to acknowledge when I do dumb stuff...incidentally so does Warren.

WOWWWWW ! @jmbada. only tewelve posts and you are already causing such a stir .lol ! welcome to wazua .

Well put bwana VVS

jmbada, there are many fund managers and personal finance advisors who I know from Wazua. There are many insiders too. There is also one jamaa (he likes a cold one every now and then) who is GREATLY respected in the regional airline industry. He is regularly sought for interviews. There is also a Wazuan who last week admitted to not having time to do research and just reads wazua and makes his decision. I wouldn't be surprised if he beat the market last year investing purely based on comments from Wazua. jmbada, amini usiamini. Anyway, still waiting on your picks for 2011
