Government T-Bills can give you 20+% risk free. Is there any rationale to put your money in the NSE?

All things held constant no reason at all, other than a gambling mentality

@Wailer said juzi that the rate will start sinking from today, lets wait and see.
Anyway its not easy to pick any stock which can promise and give a profit of 20%,even if you add both dividend and capital gain...within the next year; for speculators.

Rates will only start sinking when the dollar is at 95 and below to the ksh.

One thing that is far much worse than paper losses is selling the shares, booking the losses planning to invest elsewhere and later use the same money to "buy back" your shares only for the prices to head north in the meantime!!!

A smart investor BUYS shares at a discount! Not SELLING his/her shares at a discount hoping for even better discounts!! Utalilia kwa choo.

If you have hard cash though, you are justified to invest elsewhere in the meantime.
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

The rate hike is a monetary prescription to a fiscal problem the gobament is currently facing. the universal truth is that equities have always outperformed other investment vehicles. on the premise of being a long term horizon investor, yeah it makes truckloads of sense to be in equities......patience & foresight guys!!!!
