This is one area most people never understand if you are in for the capital gains why would you stay in a stock when your 50%+...just bail and let your money find another home...as for the Jubilee govt they shud really change tact ASAP...

@burns! It's time for an investment policy if you don't have one already. Example; STOP-LOSS! at 10% or LOCK-GAINS!

huge Ken re order at 14.35,be patient and see that price printing soon


Think GoK is to blame for the current slide,talk of introducing capital gains tax in the stock market has really blunted activity,its all red.....who would have ever thought KCB could print 36.25 after that 42 bob high 6 weeks ago?

That's a whooping 16.6%(42 to 36) loss!!! Do stockbrokers take likely political decisions in their analyses?

EABL fighting to stay at 332 with only 900 shares trading thus far,remember it pulled a 420 early may,was even predicted to reach 500 bob at some point....

@berns the stock market is really not for amateur short term players...

If you have to be short term then you must have an investment policy like previosly mentioned.. for example stop losses etc I have a personal stop loss of 12% on all short term trades!

I also sell all my short term holdings at an anuualized return of 35%

Greed and fear makes such policy not work for amateurs! Do long term (1-2 years) and you are safe, but not Guka's long term.

New presidents opt for hardships in the begin of a term and goodies at the end of the term so re-election is 'secured'.
