No free risk destination in the world even the bank where your money is kept.

I hate the tribal alliances but have to say the KKK alliance on the ground may just 'guarantee' peace in 2012. Most populous violent groupings on the same side. Stability in the Rift V. may just be what the NSE needs to prevent 'sell off' by cautious/pessimistic investors...of course this could all change in the intervening period.

Am not sure kenyans are willing to go back to where we were... however, whether these warring communities are on the same side or not, there will be some "sell-off" because of uncertainties... If well managed, "sell-offs" are good for investors too because they present an opportunity to pick some bargains. Just ensure that you accumulate cash towards the election period and pick up lilies when the 'fear' is at its peak.

@Wendz - True. What is your sell-off strategy? We have 17 or so months to the election...

I think it will take more than just the election as we know it to crash prices by 25 - 45%...Even PEV in 2008 didn't crash my portfolio that far.

Iam also contemplating holding cash 100% as we approach 2012. The question of course is when to cash in, probably in the 2nd or 3rd quarter of this year.

Even a 30% fall in prices is still sth to smile about- coz one will enter 2013 holding more units while maintaining the portfolio value.
