Capitalism has failed spectacularly. The best system is a homegrown solution that is built to suit the country.

2012 will be tense because a majority of us are tribalists rather than Kenyans.

even if 'nothing will happen' in 2012 you cant expect the current growth at the bourse to continue. elections mean a change in the investment environment and hence the long term investors will be watching. me too, although right now am in.

I don't think we'll hav violence in 2012.But what we did in 07/08 is still fresh in investors' minds.We're like a repentant crook just released from jail:people still can't trust us

Who fears to invest when a preacher says jesus christ is soon coming?african politics is so dirty and black like the african himself and no investor feels comfortable.

IMHO, nonsense... which home-grown solution?

Capitalism works but for the folks who water it down. It is NOT a system for the weak-hearted or lazy... Neither is it perfect but the best of the ones I know...

Please tell me more about your so-called 'home-grown system/solution'...

Cash is King in times of uncertainty they say....A good thing though.when the herd takes off for the high grounds,pick cheap.

The optimism that I felt in January is waning. I have stopped investing and am now doing money market. Even though i don't expect violence, I think the pace of reforms will slow down. 2012 is promising to be the most expensive elections ever and I just want to remain liquid. Either way 2012 is bound to produce the greatest shift in leadership

Mid 2011 upto august would be the climax of nse if all factors remain constant and this will be the best time to get as liquid as posible and wait for the numerous opportunities to be created by election fears.

This is typical of Mondays. I think tomorrow we might see some bit of activities. The volunes were also huge. The technical analysts can tell us what this means
