@aguy..since the NSE isn't responding to its own +ve economic fundamentals but fixated on matters abroad (tis good to b ambitious but not unreasonably) then I figure we swiftly move down technically to 2,500pts get it over with and bounce back #period#

Gracias... I am honored

Hey! I've been misquoted coz I believe if we weaned ourselves off relying on foreign investors to drive our markets yet we have our own potential domestic market makers like public & private pension and investment funds i.e NSSF, ICEA, Insurance Co.s, Investment Groups e.t.c exposes ignorance of our domestic economic realities. Our companies report superior returns and yet we fail to co-relate it through the NSE as if our companies operate on Mars and yet it is us fueling at KK, shopping at Uchumi, banking at KCB, adding Mumias sugar to our tea every so often. That's how these companies make money to pay us dividends. Foreign investors don't even spend a dime in our real economy!!

Well my thinking is, instead of fasting, engaging in prayers or spending endless hours analyzing charts why don't you monitor the performance of a few stocks which might provide key leads to where the market is headed, i call such stocks bell-weathers. The term bell-weather was initially used to describe a sheep which leads a flock, the sheep usually a castrated Ram would have a bell to attract other sheep's thus the sheep determined where others would go.

Haven't you ever heard of lost twin brother? This QW managed to find the others (QW and qw)

@Cde, the paradox is that efficiency & the banking system are to blame for the interconnectivity. When transferring USD to lets say Zambia, SA or wherever, the routing bank will be JP Morgan or another American settling bank house or when transferring Euros the routing bank might be deustche bank etc. World reserve currency is the other culprit due to its volatility, the world credit markets & cheap debt. KCB, Equity etc will have to have enough USD to sell or lend to Mumias to be able to purchase a yen denominated grinder from Japan or a Euro denominated one from Italy etc. The world markets whether we like it or not are interconnected in more ways than one coz we can never produce every good required or deliver all the services required, there'll always be a shortfall that will always have to be filled by an outsider.

My reference was to the NSE which is denominated KES. These Funds deduct funds from working class pay chqs.every month. What do they do with it? Aren't the Fund Managers sighting bargains? That's why I invest for myself..I find those "professionals" un-professional. Just busy drinking at Sheeben & Gazebo.
