I like this! Similar to what I have been warning in my Elliott Wave thread.
Conventional thinkers waste time building shelters when they are unnecessary and then have no shelters when they need them the most. Socionomists do the opposite.

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.

I have read. But I am staying in stocks. Actually just finished loading up on Kenya Re last week. Average buying price around 17/=.
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

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.


@sparkly, mlennyma.

If I hadn't seen the market trade of a day or a year. and someone told me it was interesting. I would most likely conclude that, there was a very high turnover or the market surged upwards by a significant percentage. I would consider normal/ low turnover and market down not interesting.

I totally see how a negative event can be also considered interesting. Let's just hope he isn't a saddist coz then my theory doesn't stand.
The investor's chief problem - and even his worst enemy - is likely to be himself

Stop guessing!!! Read post #54 above.

And for your info, I just read the first post. Was not interested in the rest of the discussion given what it was anchored on.

The day I start basing my investment decisions on the number of threads started by HELLOs and other people's "I have a feeling...", that will be the day to quit stocks (for me).

I have just gone back to that thread to see when it was started. It was started on Saturday, January 04, 2014 4:06:24 PM

Now you tell me, for those who took it seriously, was it a good idea to stay of stocks in 2014??? The shares you sold did they fall or rise in price come December 2014?? Tafakari hayo.

NB: And I am not talking about the entire market. I am talking about the stocks you held. If you were holding KCB for example, wachana na performance ya KQ and Mumias if you didn't own them in the first place!

@MaichBlack look at the chart below (Courtesy @Mnandii in the Elliott post).

You can see that if you bought your stocks in 2012/3 around the point labelled B the rise was swift and sweet. After late 2013/early 2014 the market is just trading sideways without any definitive UP or DOWN movement.

Do not be swayed by what people say.Do your research and base your investments mostly on fundamentals and not emotions.I say again trust no one,but your God and instincts.The guys purporting to warn us pocketed millions in 2014.I do not think they would have made that much if they kept off stocks!
