ICC Week: where is the bear?

As the D-Day for the appearance of PEV suspects at the Hague arrives this week, a media and public seized by these events, you'd expect the NSE to drop a few more points, buy time. It's looking more stable than I'd like or is it too early. Where is the bear?

Watched Uhuru's interview yesterday & IMHO cash is king during this period. Anyone who has done psychometrics will tell you the same if he viewed the interview. Though i might be wrong. 'They say money cannot buy me happiness but when i compare when i had none and now, i'm happier' Kevin O'leary

The market tanked well in advance of the Ocampo 6's appearance at the Hague. In a sense these week's events are therefore more of an anticlimax. Even if the market falls, it will probably be because of those of us who bought as the market fell, selling to lock in our profits. ecstacy wrote:As the D-Day for the appearance of PEV suspects at the Hague arrives this week, a media and public seized by these events, you'd expect the NSE to drop a few more points, buy time.

Though i might be wrong. >>I haven't done psycho... but I didn't like the insistence! that UBAKU won in 2007 and refusal to discuss about his lawyers. The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

Day 2 - As the Ocampo 6 head out, nerves on the NSE floor seem rested...

I do not care of the Ocampo6 stay permanently at the Hague. And the other 41 thieves... Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett

61% of the population support the Hague process, a good outcome will imply more confidence in the country not opposite. kcb hit a 1 and half year high today!! LOVE WHAT YOU DO, DO WHAT YOU LOVE.

It's looking more stable than I'd like or is it too early. Where is the bear? There were jitters that any potential arrests of these key PEV suspects would have dramatically escalated tension. Demos and stripping was the talk of the day. Buying at that time took some ball$!! Lawyers have since their arrival gotten solid assurance no arrests will be made.

That optimism you saw over the constitution review process is being wiped out. Those laws are imperative to creating a stable investment environment. Parliament (recalled to burn midnight oil passing laws) has like 24 bills to pass by May but had to adjourn yesterday because no bills were tabled...they were not ready...why?...I feel nothing about most of these MPigs but their utterances & actions combined with drought and inflation projected to hit 15% year-end will shape your investment portfolio.

Was it Aug 4th? The NSE index has not gone above what it was on Aug 5th 2010 despite all the optimism. Is Kadaffi still in power and for how much longer?

Case in point is Ivory Coast, guys & foreign investors(french & UN bombed him) have gotten tired of Gbagbo's shit & he's now in a bunker negotiating for a way out. I promise you the Diageo's, Helio's, WPP's, Barclays, Stanchart's & other foreign investors won't let it happen. Foreign govt's too will not let it happen coz of Somalia(Alshabab & Alqaeda).

We have seen how leaders would rather die than let powere slip through their fingures. Kenya is no exception. Politicians at time have no control of events. Who would have dreamt one day that a mother shall cry over her son who has lived like a prince all his life only to be herded before a court, an international court mark you, with possibilities of .... Wisdom to detect when share prices hit rock bottom.
When interest on bonds keep going up, you know the bear run is on high street. When interest on bonds start leveling, the bear has met the bull and they have hit rock bottom. When the interest rates on bonds start coming down, the bull has overpowered the bear and you better be riding the bull.

7th came and passed. With the 6 having been warned not to engage in hate speech or risk arrest, can we expect a sweet market ride upto September 1st? GOD BLESS YOUR LIFE
