Kizee1-Ndungu and his MPC team had put making CBR their primary monetary policy weapon. Not increasing CBR now to further boaster Ksh/inflaion decrease will damage MPC's credibility (if any is remaining).

Think we may surpass previous 95.10 weak point today. On the 14th, CBK will either put up CBR or be resigned to touching Ksh100.

Kaboom! USDKES @95.40 - 95.10 taken out to register a new post float low... 100 is going to be tested if as @Mainat says if the CBR is not hiked on the 14th. CBK is on the ropes here, they either fight back or throw in the towel...

USDUGX - this one will also test 3000

But the crown today goes to TZS - has exploded (huge gap up on opening) as the USD knocks it down while taking out all time low of 1632, now trading @1661. From here it is 1700 then 1800.

And all this is happening before the great dollar squeeze begins in earnest!

CBK throws $s into the mix to prevent $@Ksh96. Given banks are (a) more liquid (b)can't risk lending given several headwinds, how long can CBK compete?
