Hi guys....need some advice on buying shares.

1. is this the right time to buy shares in the NSE keeping in mind many companies have just announced their financial making some shares go up...which will most likely come done after all the excitement....

2. If it's the right time, would go wrong with equity,eabl or CFC....or what are the best options

@ras is there a right to buy a plot, a house, a matatu? It all depends on your assessment of your particular purchase, right? Similarly there is no "right" time to buy shares. On that short note, welcome to wazua and learn how to pick good stock investments.

On Olympia, I have no excuse... I bought to SPECULATE... which I do not normally do... and see where it got me...

Lakini, @qw... u keep on avoiding the specifics on your picks... You sound like khalwale... oiii, eiii BUT I want you to show us specifics like @stocksmaster...

Thanks guys...I've gone thro the different chats and what am seeing is equity, kplc, kenol, co-op, eabl, Arm as the places to put money. I've like 250k i want to weka in shares. What the advice on what i can put where.. cheers

@Raszag follow people like @mukiha he has this cool approach to stocks...he is 10% short of a genious...but his only weakness is he is not a good stock picker i.e OCH,CMC...but he is great...then we have our resident stock picking supremos like madam Guru from Uganda...@VVS,Pkoli,Wathaika when this guys say buy...you buy...then our resident fundamental analyst @Proverb,@Muchknow and @youcant...young supremos like @Sparkly...@Qw is suppose to be our resident TA but with screams of buy buy buy has made @sparkly to believe he is an ARMCHAIR INVESTOR...LOL...then me,@sheep,2012...@Horton and Gordon Gecko(they went AWOL after the KEnol Split)...and then YOU we are here to provide the NEWS and put a spanner in the work of this Wazua Greats...Remember we make a lot of money for ourselves in the process...although speculators dont get RICH...then theres Pierce and Govmusvli just like me we dont sleep because of KQ...LOL..happy hunting...

@the deal, thanks!

@raszag other than reading some good books on investing in stocks, as for now (starters) dive in slowly (maybe bits of 5k or 10K spread in 5 to 8 counters receiving good reviews here from the aforementioned (in @the deal post) commissions are standard 2.1% sell and same for buy (if you jump in big time +100K pieces you save kitu .7% either way so?), if that money means too much to you, put a little in the market and learn, take the rest elsewhere. Following "valued" advice from this site will help (you will learn as you read the posts), avoid stocks you hear bad vibes about from here unless you have very solid info. Am talking about years of experience not months and don't expect quick cash. Market doesn't seem too risky at the moment, its not the best neither the worst of times. But you might get lucky and don't fear burning too much either.Once your a pro, you will know what to do, sio?

@ raszag
karibu and joins the class.

Start with at most 3 counters with low P/E [you do know what that is, don't you? if not buy "Business Daily" and check the stock tables] and average to high daily volumes; divide your money equally amongst them - 80k each

Spread your buys over two months (8 weeks). Buy a tranche of worth 10k of each counter weekly.

Usibabaike hat kama zinashuka....it's good when you are on a buying spree [I was both happy and unhappy when CFC started climbing above 50 -> happy because my wealth was increasing; unhappy because I still buying]

Once you have completed they buying

asanteni.....u guys have been in this game and u really know ur stuff...will make my first step this week...

Make a note of the 100units buy sell rule as you plan, kes10k will not buy 100 wtk per order or eabl but will buy a lot of scom or unga, so with your buys distribution 'equitable' or balance means much more than it does in the constitution.
