Interesting discussion..Perhaps as we approach the elections and also immediately after, the direction of key macro economic indicators will become more clearer. The general public mood however is that of uncertainty. Those who have already sold are making the most noise to destabilize the market and dampen the prices for reasons all of us know.For now we wait...In cash!

My crystal ball tells me the dollar won't go past kes 100. I will hold cash in dollars, euro and Rand. 50, 40, 10 in that order

the shares that rallied hard last year with a few exceptions it would be wise to get out now. the euphoria of nse not falling is at fever pitch here. how quickly we forget. however for grossly undervalued shares and high dividend yielding ones it is better to stay put.

Isn't that the challenge? Which stocks are 'undervalued' & which stocks will pay a good dividend yield going forward?

The criteria for 'under-valued' varies substantially among investors.
The appropriate dividend yield varies too. For some 5% is OK, while others expect 15%.

true old sage, true. i rem buffet quiping that for him the time to buy stocks is not determined by the day of the week, the time of the year, an election year and so on . id leave it open for each investor to decide . personally great companies trading at a significant discount to NAV (say 0.7) and div yield approaching 10%

Watch the news boss...look at Mathare, Tana River, strange paraphernalia in Kajiado, yet the nominations have not started and the elections are 3 months away. These are indications that things will not go as we wish. No rigging will be done, but the losers might might just refuse to bite the bullet.


@murchr, see, S&P, Moody and Fitch have assigned Kenya a “stable” outlook based on expectations of fair economic growth, falling inflation and a bet that the March 2013 polls will be peaceful link

Foreign investors show faith in NSE listed companies ahead of elections link


Mwekezaji, these ratings were done sometime back...i guess oct/nov and they are bound to change...depending on how we behave. The foreign policy website ranks Kenya as a hotspot for violence this year. Investors dont only rely on S&P, they go thru our papers daily looking at policy change and any form of violence that is reported. I hope for the best tho.



Watching the market and foreigners remain active on the buy side. Check KCB, Safari, Uchumi, Scangroup, BAT, Kenya Power .....

I partially agree with you and would also add the opening up the market in Ethiopia through the lamu port (This is Huge) and the south Sudan( small market huge for fuel). Please don't forget Kenya is a key cog in political stability and therefore future business opportunities in Somali.

Sanctions would depend on the prevailing politics between the west and the east at the time and who stands to win or lose.

Some of us made plenty of returns in 2012.. (77% portfolio growth)We hardly need to risk heavily in Q1 2013..
For us investors it makes more sense to exit partially especially with the uncertainty that is set to come..
When things become clearer we will jump right back into the NSE and ride the vision 2030 wave!! smile

Besides i still hold some really undervalued stocks like Kenya Re just in case a miracle happens and Jubilee loses on march 4th!
