KE Money market yields are hinting at a liquidity tightness bad confidence status. Yield curve inversion looms! Not a nice signal for equities looking for support after a heavy selling bout. Liquidity is being strongly sucked into money markets while USDKES still sits a hairline away from all time highs. Bond issuers will be squeezed badly as rates spike higher.

CB madness coming up. They'll start throwing the sink and everything else here at this liquidity blackhole.



Mega Bill coming up. The Bids here will be interesting. Enough to smooth the curve? We'll see. Foreign portfolio funds can be attracted to this one.

CBK to sell T-bond worth 30bn

One thing I dont get. If there's strong demand for bonds, shouldn't interest rates go down?


The strong demand is for long term bonds and not short ones. Investors are willing to pay more for long term paper thus raising its price and decreasing its yield.

This means that bond issuers will have to offer rates higher than long term paper for them to raise short term money.

The illiquidity becomes real then.

@Gatheuzi, Muthawamunene. Thanks. This bonds business takes some understanding
The investor's chief problem - and even his worst enemy - is likely to be himself

Exactly. Markets can't function without liquidity. That squeeze is what distorts the market.

Broker to investors: Cut equities exposure at the Nairobi bourse

Quote:
Dyer and Blair have asked their clients to put money in T-bills and fixed-term deposits. In the latest auctions, the 91-day T-bill went for 13.858 per cent up from 11.502 per cent the previous week.


Why is this broker advising its clients to head into the fixed income market? Very bold call to ditch equities and load up money markets. Does this mean fixed income rates are about to spike?

This story will become clear very soon...

HFCK building demand and set for an upthrust##trading the oscillations


Equity been on a crazy rally from a low of 36.75 (more than 20%).Price almost overtaking KCB..This should be a good exit point.

You have spoken.my thoughts too


Equity closes at 47 with a solid demand of 200,000 shares at 47 against a supply of less than 30k at 48,49 and 50..RSI at 70 on a bear market!!whats cooking???All time HIGH AT 55..
KCB stuck and trying to overcome support of 46 now turned resistance..

A def peak for both

FED meeting on sep 16/17..I expected fear to be on the markets this week

Bounce progress as expected. The real test will be if 4000 will hold on the next nosedive episode. That level has to hold if bulls are to survive!

Global equities are still undecided, but I expect another downside episode soon.

@hisah explain to me how the Fed increasing rates by 25 basis points (0.25%) ONLY will have a big impact in the direction of global capital.

Meanwhile USD to Kes. has been hovered around 105 for two weeks (one might say at least Kes is not sliding but with all the intervention why is it not improving either?)

In the same two weeks NSE 20 has been in a narrow band 4125 to 4260.

today 91 T-bill rate at 14.486%, higher than 182 T-bill which is at 13.861% and higher than the coupon on most bonds.

This points to a recovery without legs. The steam will run out soon. I agree with @hisah 4000 will be tested with support at 3930.79 as per @mnandii post
