I am not too sure whether its time to get in or wait a little longer. Can somebody with insider info share? "You've never lived until you've almost died; for those who have fought for it, life has a flavour the protected will never know."

The concept of Mr. Market goes something like this: imagine you are partners in a private business with a man named Mr. Market. Each day, he comes to your office or home and offers to buy your interest in the company or sell you his [the choice is yours]. The catch is, Mr. Market is an emotional wreck. At times, he suffers from excessive highs and at others, suicidal lows. When he is on one of his manic highs, his offering price for the business is high as well, because everything in his world at the time is cheery. His outlook for the company is wonderful, so he is only willing to sell you his stake in the company at a premium. At other times, his mood goes south and all he sees is a dismal future for the company. In fact, he is so concerned, he is willing to sell you his part of the company for far less than it is worth. All the while, the underlying value of the company may not have changed - just Mr. Market's mood.
The best part of this entire arrangement: you are free to ignore him if you don't like his price. The next day, he'll show up at your door with a new one. For your interest, the more manic-depressive he is, the more opportunity you will have to take advantage of him [don't worry, he doesn't have feelings or mind being taken advantage of.] As long as you have a strong conviction of what the company is really worth, you will be able to look at Mr. Market's offers and reject or accept them... the choice is yours."
Can you imagine waiting to purchase a car until its price went up, but refusing to buy the same car went it goes on sale? What are you buying the prices or the underlying asset?
Why people act like this I will never understand but i'm strongly buying NIC mopping up on Uchumi, collect some KCB, looking at adding to shopping basket Britak, mumias, KQ

it may have hit the 2-year low. but i bet it can sink further. i am not seeing the recovery happening before February. just sit accumulate cash and wait for the opportune time next year, we haven't seen the very low yet. African parents don't know how to say sorry.. the closest you will get to a sorry is a 'have you eaten'

Those in the know are putting up funds together fighting off the family over XMass gifts, as they target their entry points with plenty of discounts. Read KENOL/KOBIL discussion.

In all languages it's 'gura share'. It's time when millionaires are made. The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

I have decided i am buying. Putting in 30% of what i intended to invest. If prices drop further i will then average down with the 50% of the remaining cash. This is a guaranteed secured risk. This plan begins 27th December 2011 African parents don't know how to say sorry.. the closest you will get to a sorry is a 'have you eaten'

When you are at level with the ground, there is nowhere further you can fall to. so is the case with some selected stocks. "Don't let the fear of losing be greater than the excitement of winning."
