Torrents are good. :) I have downloaded pdf copies of the "The Intelligent Investor" and "The Elements of Investing". Anyone needs a copy? And if you need an EPUB version of the elements of investing, to read from your smartphone let me know. Excelsior

I suggest U put that cash in the following stock...Olympia, Sameer, Express Kenya, Eveready and Access Kenya. Get burned a little and appreciate the essence of doing on own research instead of going with the hype of wazua. Ashante Underweight. Excelsior

@incognito I guess U do play chess? No matter how many books you read on chess U'll never master it until U play it. Same applies to stocks. The players change but the rule remain the same. So start playing the game n U'll realise why we say never chase a moving bus or falling knife and how U can be lured into a suitable killing ground the way it happened to Britak and Trans-Century. Get to know the difference btn real rallies or sucker rally! "A bad decision made now is beta that a good one made later!!"

Advising him to buy this is handing him a rope to hang himself with. @ Incognito IMHO u won't be burnt alittle with this choice u will be incinerated. Even the ashes will be burnt into gases. Am not so experienced but am thinking KCB, Equity, Kenolkobil. What have seen guys advice here is if a stock is going down buy a few and if it goes down further buy some more by the time it starts going up your average price is relatively low. I suggest u also decide on how long u r willing to wait and if you will sleep hungry as it were from the wait.I have been holding onto a stock for 4.5yrs and am still waiting(Experts may advice against this I think depending on your goals). There r also what experts call a stop loss positions.

@incognito . firstly stop boring us with the 'thanks' in every post !!! its kind of shaddy....lol .
secondly . always be aware of the wazua hype . i have been here long enough to see guys lead one another like sheep into a slaughter house. the wazua HYPER is very bad. BEWARE .
The furthest suggestions in this forum shld come is to get you thinking.Thats all. Getting advice here and rushing to your broker is just suicidal.
DO YOUR OWN HOMEWORK. If you think investing is just taking someones ideas and rushing to the broker i guess all of us would be Billionares.You get kmy point ????
Happy Investing

I find this topic funny, when you say you are buying stocks it's like buying fish and the NSE is not a fish market. You are buying companies every time you buy a share ask yourself if you are prepared to buy the whole company, look at the fundamentals, the business environment, the revenue projections, dividend yields, the management and then look at the value, if it offers you value you buy whether the market is going up or down. You can't make money if you are not prepared to lose money. That's why i'm in the market every week buying companies which i feel are undervalued and every day they get cheaper i purchase a bigger stake.

@icognito by buying banks u have made your first wrong investment decision...Kenyan banks except Stan Chart and NBK have been hiding losses on their bond portfolio's...where there is smoke there is fire.

Realized or un-realized? I think the former will come forth in Q3. Both...each quater them banksters are suppose to do mark to market valuations of their bond portfolios to see if there are any gains or losses..the gain/losses should reflect in P/L statement I.e Eqty Banks Sh21B G-sec hoard which was held for trading is now classified as held to maturity...when were valuations done? JM was silent on the issue during 1H release...if mark to valuations were done members profits would have plunged..call it the domino effect of toxic bonds...its a wait and see game
