KCB and Scan Group are the shares to be watched keenly as their prices are going to rise sharply.

Very insulting....to the intelligent of wazuans, as if they cant comprehend a simple analytical xplanation...

Speculation is not wise in investment, can we have figures (EY maybe)
for enticement? Plus when intending to buy you check stocks that are stable not those rising as they might come down tomorrow!

For me i use technical analysis .and since very few wazuas dnt understand t.a why bother giving a full report.i go 4 small pointers that most cn chew en swallow . Hiyo 2.

I do not understand technical analysis, though I have a book on technical analysis. I would like interpretation of the numbers.

@qw for this post i will just call lot juvenile, with no apologies

The only guy who has shown 2 b a t.a guru is @hisah . And where is @njunge. Who thinks mumias will fall to 12.00 . That cn only happen in dreamland. Those who panic sold pole xana. Next time listen keenly 2 w@t i say.

he he he use basic T.A...know the resistance points,200days mva,cup and handle,saucer,flatbase,head and shoulder patterns etc...leave the complex stuff to market underperformers.

@Pkoli

True, true, true...patience pays..

I remember another thread here where I advised some fellow unless as a career choice, he needed not waste money doing a CFA just so he can make money from NSE... some peeps roasted me.

While fundamentals are crucial in choosing based on the "current state of health" of a company... patience and timing and keeping abreast economic trends in your chosen sector will help do the trick.. technical analysis is great but it does not foresee or foretell future market reactions based on unforeseen competitor, economic, political and company management or mismanagement changes...factors that are just as crucial.

Take Safcom; who would would have foretold Zain would be bought by Bharti and then unleash a seriously funded campaign blitz and price war?

Technicals are based on the past and present mostly and favour short-termers more. No one knows whether the company will discover oil in a year or will accidentally blow up a rig and pay billions in damages.... Only time can tell for sure.

Yet the experts are essential in that they temper markets' uncertainty with a dose of reality. More importantly they can help you currently value any given stock.
