Fiscal reality is forcing the govt to cut back. More and more cuts expected as the debt burden balloons over the next 12-24 months.

Bad macros are finally reflecting in the banks' bottom line. This is the part we get to know which ones are savvy lenders and which ones were swimming naked.
The main purpose of the stock market is to make fools of as many people as possible.

Unlikely because MPC is not a forward looking body, the politics of raising interest rates and the fact that Ksh has not weakened properly yet.

CBR is a useless lever. It transmits very little in terms of monetary policy. With credit growth at levels of 2008 level perhaps using the cash ratio will do more.

With slowing private sector credit growth, shouldn't they be thinking about adjusting downwards (to stimulate economic activity)? Why would they consider raising rates at this point in time?

Rate cap was nail in SME coffin. They're too high risk to lend at 14%.
