20.799%. Last Thursday's Auction for non-competitive bids for the 91 days bill. Up & rising. MOF are contemplating of going to the international markets for funds but i think that this year being an election year, i don't think the yield on any debt they'll issue will fully fulfill foreigners risk appetite.

This thing could hit 27% before we know it,I am glad I am dipping in it in batches of 100K at least every fortnight!  Portfolio: Sold

Started at around October on the 91 day paper though i was already in bonds and had my first rollover last week while some guys were and are still 'averaging down' on stocks.

@erifloss,impunity et al Was looking for info on how to purchase t-bills without the hustle of going to cbk (for special cds a/c opening & filling in the forms) since I work far from town. Found a solution with cfc stanbic, all I need to do is open an account with them and request them to purchase the t-bills for me,the money gets debited from my account. They charge a commission of 0.139% they say. Anyone using them? Hug the bear....ride the bull.....di$mount!!!

Amana Money Market Fund is paying 21%; where are they putting the money? Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.
