If you were following the market, why don't you buy the stocks you were following! Life is short. Live passionately.

Try T-bills now that you thinking of bonds, there's a 1 year fixed coupon coming in April. http://www.centralbank.go.ke/se...bonds/manualresults.aspxAs for stocks, lots of info here at Wazua. For free charts/simple "cartoons" and historical data, go to bloomberg.com Good luck.

I agree with QW that we will see a rapid increase in similar threads if the market upturn continues. kstevey, hapa Wazua kila mtu ako na favourites zake so you will get varied answers. I would encourage you to go through the threads a second time around until you are confident enough to make YOUR OWN decisions. All the best brother! GOD BLESS YOUR LIFE

With elections around the corner and the spending that comes with it, Scangroup and Nation media are good counters, they'll make lots of profits. i've made an entry on both, hoping to hold until near year end or when i get a 25% gain. Knowledge is contagious...Infect truth!

You bought nation at 160+ and you are really expecting a profit? You might end up with a big loss. Dont be lazy, Stop investing on assumptions, do some research. Life is short. Live passionately.
