In 2010... 46 years after independence... seriously, you have to stop complaining/blaming wakoloni...

Singapore is doing exceptionally well... even 'celebrates' its colonial past...

Why? Coz Singapore's LEADERS are clean & smart... We were stupid (& unlucky) to choose thief kenyatta while Singapore got Lee Kuan Yew...

IMHO, one of Kenya's cleanest politician was Joesph Murumbi... He loved the country more than his pocket or ego...

Vvs- go here and look at stock fundamentals.

Sometimes taking advantage of kenyan's peculiar trading habits can get you some tidy returns. Kenyans especially the old folk love dividends.
Take Total Kenya, it has a consistent dividend kshs 2.50 per share books close in May. From around November you can pick this stock at 28/- wait patiently until March-May when it peaks at 34-35 when everyone scrambles for the dividend. Capital gains gives you Kshs.6-7 per share. Sometimes if you have a good broker you can end up with the dividend and capital gain. So on average in a good year a return of 17-23%

@sparkly.. just one question... when you talk about you have seen share prices fall in feb/march..
is it by a substantial margin say by more than 8% which can allow traders to take real advantage or is it just a minor fall???

i ask because we are in the middle of feb and no fall in stock prices except the fall caused by the politics..

@guru267 i guess this time we skipped the 'falling' bit straight to the very rapid rise towards june. Have you see the gallop of the agrics and the industrials? Even good old EAPC. I guess its because the market was still in recovery mode from 2009 lows. NS20I will touch 4000 by june.
