Will people fear going to town, will the stock market melt. What happened to Wall Street after 911. Just thinking aloud.
I suspect the european crisis will have more direct effect on the nairobi market more than a possible attack by the Al shabs.

LONDON (AP) -- Markets plunged Tuesday on fears that Europe's plan to save the euro was already unraveling after the shock decision by Greece's leader to call a referendum on the country's latest rescue.
Should the Greek government lose the referendum vote -- and opinion polls say it's going to have real trouble getting enough support -- then the implications for Greece and Europe are massive. The vote could end up deciding whether Greece remains in the 17-nation euro currency union.
Markets, it seems, are taking the view that Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou won't be able to pull off a come-from-behind victory.
