Interesting year without elaboration is similar to saying nothing.its a wise fence sitting statement.But I can only assume you warn someone of an impending disaster

It is worse than saying nothing!!! It will cause unnecessary panic and optimism in equal measures in different quarters. Some people will sell everything so that they are not told they were never warned. Others might decide to buy and be part of the "interesting" year. And come to think of it, buy what??? Will the "interest" be the same for all counters???

I expect better from Jimnah Mbaru.

He has spoken like a politician. Not an investment Banker!!!

#disappointed.

Am also disappointed by the ambiguous sstatement from an Investment Banker. Sounds like the Sell Sell Sell and Buy Buy Buy lingo that we've heard hear from some quarters.

@Aguy I like the way you are cooling the nerves already stretched by a statement.but sir iam just wondering why I should warn you for something good coming.

When he says it will be 'interesting'

Interesting is a positive word, so I think he means the markets will be positive.
If it was a doom prediction I think he wouldn't say anything or he wouldnt say interesting.


Interesting - arousing curiosity or
interest; holding or catching the attention.

Sasa hii ni kuambia watu nini. Zero information in the statement!!!

Any of his followers, muweke clarifications here as soon as he gives one.


He has WARNED. Warning =danger=red=bear.

In a bear market the options are:

1. Sell 75% of your stocks and invest in bonds; or
2. Invest in defensive counters - blue chip banks, communications companies, brewers and tobacco.

Question: Why would Jimnah warn people off stocks? He makes money when there is activity in the stock market. The more frequent the activities the better for him. Sell, buy, sell, buy, sell, buy.... not sell and disappear.

I might be wrong but maybe he wanted to create the confusion he has managed to create. That way he stirs activity in the market. Whatever activity it doesn't matter. You sell he makes money. Another one buys he makes money. A couple of weeks down the line you realize you should not have sold, you buy back in, he makes more money.
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

Next opinion.....mbaru's opinion is not law.markets will mainly follow a global trend but not a country in isolation, before Q1 the writing will be on the wall.

Sorry to burst your bubble @mlennyma but Mbaru is not just a random Kenyan. The kind of information, research and analysis manpower, networks, tools etc. he has at his disposal you can't even begin to dream about. Most of us can't even come close. He is the ultimate insider.

But having said that even those tools etc. can fail. It is not always 100%. And furthermore we are not sure of his motives.

All I'm saying is that I would take Mbaru's CANDID opinion on stocks more seriously than opinions of most other individuals. The same way I would take my doctor's opinion on my health more seriously than the opinion of a friend/relative.

This man has created a certain level of fear to many who read his tweets whether he is right or wrong.

Mbaru follows@wazua.he has been a good follower of the Chartists who have been at it since late 2013.ati bearish banks only for the same to turbo boost like never before.he is a johnny come late because even wanjiku suspects or knows that the steeper the hill the deeper the valley beyond.i believe its all in the timing.am also worried by foreigners trade actions as this might be last straw.americans have been more aggressive of late participating more in their markets.a parallel should be drawn as to how oil price crashed and alot of countries were caught pants down.i am also concerned by USA dollar policy as they intend to revalue.
