Real Talk - 2011 goes to the hop-scotch speculators & market timers. My confidence in Prof. Ndung'u is still intact too as he always takes good care of the long-players segment at the end of the day. (twas painful to read the slander all about)

USDKES 100/- handle is the line in the sand for this fight club... Whoever can sustain the most blows and remain standing will rule the day. And that day points to 110/- instead of sub 100... Sad

Money & politics... Now the politicians will save the shilling. What a superb financial instrument this... The lukewarm subscription of the 12 yr infra bond also sold to the diaspora points to the investors winning round 1 in this fight club... The longer it takes to bite the bullet, the sharper the pain will get. Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures and the regulator is still sleeping on the job. Good luck...

CBK is in a tight corner , just kicking and throwing 360 degree punches to free itself .We should rather keep on giving suggestions on how to save the shilling.
CBK is now totally short of ideas .

Lets look at this soberly.

In July, Kenya imported KES 104B worth of goods, and exported 43B.

There was a net shortfall of KES 61B of forex needed.

That same month CBK reserves went up 5.5B while banks reserves went up 17.5B.

There's just too much demand for forex and not enough supply!

I see 110.00 easily.
Business opportunities are like buses,there's always another one coming
