Good read: @ mwanahisa & @ proverb.

Keep it up guys. I am trying to reposition myself. Having played banks for last qtr of last year, I am already attempting to sell EB. That will leave me with DTB which I will dispose one results either confirm a bonus or leaves most of us high and dry.

My next moves will go 2wards highly speculitive plays targeting max of 20%. I will also transfer some of the profits to real estate at least upto 2013 when I expect any significant mrkt comeback to resume.

@Mufasa. Thanks. I agree that I continuously find useful information/views from a good number of Wazua bloggers. That does not however mean that I should regard anyone's opinion as sacred. But I certainly consider them when shaping my own.

On E.A. Cables, if you refer to the thread on the day they released their results, I indicated that I was a buyer in the Kshs 17 to 18 range. I was not able to buy in and it briefly managed to cross the Kshs 20 barrier, but I was NOT gonna chase it (Thanks be to God). At 18, I am considering buying it for
(a) the dividend yield of 5.56%;
(b) the "turnaround" story - H2 EPS was 81 cents against 31 cents in H1. I am betting that the impairments in H1 completely "cleaned house";
(c) speculation that if Trans Century lists it will seek to stabilize or even push up the EAC price as this is one of their major investments.

KCB - All the reasons you have indicated. PLUS, I will get a nice dividend on a liquid share whose management now seems to be improving while I wait for the price to catch up with its fundamentals. I admit that I am living in hope here, but it has worked previously, so why not?

Guyz lets not panic about NOTHING here. this so called 'sell-off' has no support.What i mean is that if you look at the VOLUMES that are causing this 'sell-off' they cannot sustain the sell-off.
The market is very weak because of the Middle East crisis as one or two investors cannot hold his/her emotions and decides to sell his stake at a LOSS.
I mean when a.k makes new low on 55,000 shares OR Kenya Re which has very good dividend policy to go with makes an all-time low on just 200,000 shares OR Kenya Airways which trades below NAV drops on a mere 40,000 shares what does that tell you.??? it plainly means bargains are falling right on your/our laps.
Those calling for bargain hunting are dead right !!!!!!!! Thats what we shld do,Right NOW...
Those calling foe Equity bank at 20.00 please !!!!!!!It might be easier getting the cure for A.I.D.S ..LOL . sincerely .

WHAT I AM STREESING HERE IS WE LOOK AT THE VOLUMES THAT ARE PULLING DOWN THIS STOCKS. Guyz you might need your umbrellas coz its raining bargains on the N.S.E

The possibility of the grand coalition crumbling is imminent due to the wrangles in ODM.I would say political uncertainty is one reason why the index is not heading north

I think the market is in a very tricky situationt.Am sure the issues in the middle East wont be resolved immediately so the market will remain as it is or even go lower for a few more months. Moreover, its the eve of the election year and the parliament wrangles are coz politicians have gotten into campaign mode.most foreign investors are exiting the market and am speculating that more investors will exit the towards year end an wait it out upto 2013......My views
Anyone know of any other African markets with potential?

hi @vimto2505 None of the above instruments are available on the Nairobi stock exchange..

Hii NSE vile inaendelee kurega kurega towards 4000, I think in coming weeks we will need 'hopium' to bring back the rally... Stay tuned...
