With the Kenyan economy being severely tested by high oil prices and insufficient rains, cautious investors might want to take a look at defensive stocks at the NSE

Mumias have all sorts of problems.
With the end of COMESA safeguards looming, they are yet to start implementing measures they had planned for years ago.
What happened to the TARDA Project?
The government through the Privatisation Commission is also delaying the sale of sugar millers, which Mumias has a keen eye on.
Plus not all people put sugar in their tea
What I had in mind was businesses that sell tea/coffee e.g Starbucks.

Mumias is still fine. We’re a net importer of sugar. International sugar prices have remained high (past 3 years). When (If) the COMESA safeguards are lifted, the Kenyan sugar industry will be adversly affected if international sugar prices drop. If the prices remain high, the sugar producing COMESA countries will likely sell their sugar on the international market where it will command a higher price. (European, American, Asian markets). So for Mumias, watch the international scene; not just the local madness.

In addition to your choice of defensive stocks I think maintaining a stable state of mind through the period is of paramount importance!! Don't go jumping off cliffs especially over a stock that u neccessarily wouldn't sell during a Bull market!

Definitely do not forget jubilee as the biggest defense... Look out for a thread I will post about the company and its share price

True! True! A sober mind is of utmost importance at all times in the stock market
