Therefore, I remain of the view that the recent softness will pass like the cold snap we currently find ourselves experiencing in Nairobi.

Very nice article.
Noted points:
Quote:. Equity investors into Africa have reduced gateway exposure and penetrated deeper into Africa and you will note Ghana is the best performing stock index in the world and is +58.54% this year,
Nigeria is +33.29% and Nairobi +26.1227%. What is interesting is the synchronisation and correlation between Nigeria and Nairobi. The Nigeria All Share has retreated 8.88% since the 11th of June and the Nairobi NSE20 has retreated 5.99% since the 31st of May.

I wonder why the Ghanian Market hasn't shaken off some points, anyway...the oil and gas play will be a game changer. Now this is a serious analysis, forget the gossip that BD is peddling these days.
