Profit taking has been quite shallow than I expected esp on mpesa bank, simba, eabl, bamburi & member. 4900 will likely stall the slide.
Laggards kk, kq, nbk & kplc are floating as expected. MSC somehow is still above 3/- but the sugar industry is as disordered as it gets at the moment.
@aguy - tps is worth a shot for recovery, but illiquid counter. Less riskier than kq for those without hearts of steel to board the kq mbus...
The next solid bull boost is the eurobond float. If it happens when NSE20 is above 5500, I'd expect 6000 and the all time high level @6161 to be tested... By then a lot of crappy stocks will be floating high. The idea is to avoid that crappy corner in case of a shakeout event... Just like 5000, at 6k level the selling pressure will be solid resisting bulls for a while...
$15/barrel oil... The commodities lehman moment arrives as well as Sovereign debt volcano!
