USDKES.

In fourth wave triangle formation. Expecting a break out of the 102 level consolidation toward and below 100. Only if the pair moves strongly above 103 will the outlook modify.
Conventional thinkers waste time building shelters when they are unnecessary and then have no shelters when they need them the most. Socionomists do the opposite.

This is a 45 year cartoon of the USD index since 1970. Heading back to challenge 116 and if it breaks down, liquidity will evaporate very fast!



AUD,CAD,ZAR,SAR and other commodity currencies especially will continue having it rough as the oil glut and entry of Iran takes its toll further on oil prices. This should push the USD index to previous highs. I heard KE Treasury secretary is contemplating Eurobond2Sad . All the best for him.

I don't think its Euro Bond 2 but rather we're back to borrowing local

Kenya: Treasury Set to Borrow More Locally As Foreign Credit Gets Expensive


Eurobond borrowing is now a finished play. Going that way will just ensure you burn your economy as USD buffalo stampede blows up your repayment budgets.

Borrowing locally will also fail. Bidless blackhole! Unless govts start paying premium rates on bonds their bonds will go bidless!

The USD buffalo rout will wreak havoc that no govt expects! Politicians are in big trouble when the market will start refusing to give capital to govts.


In the short term, we should forget borrowing in the international markets,that is, at least for the next one and a half years. Insisting on external funding at this point will be tantamount to sovereign financial suicide. I think the cs is engaging in tomfoolery trying to diffuse the spike in local tbill/bond rates so that treasury is able to raise more at an affordable rate but the market ain't budging. When push comes to shove tbills/bonds will be the only way out though at handsome premium.

Treasury will curse the day they decided to raise the eurobond. That gravy train where African countries were roped in just as the global economy was about to tip over will be a very painful ride in coming times.

No-one was roped into borrowing Forex. It's the misuse of the proceeds that's the problem.


The cheap(relatively) rates roped in new clients aka African countries who previously had not raised money via eurobonds et al. Emerging markets are getting a beatdown thanks to dollar denominated debt...I do not expect African economies to fair any better whether the funds were prudently utilized or not. We are now much more in sync with the global economy courtesy of the eurobond and its misuse only makes a bad problem worse.

It is smart to borrow at cheap(er) rates for investment purposes. It is stupid to use the (any) funds for White Elephants and shady deals. #ThisIsAfrica [Rwanda, Mauritius & Botswana seem to be the exceptions].

True,at the time of taking on the debt it was cheaper but the assessment of whether to take on such kind of financing should have been done over the tenure of such debt vis a vis global financial market trends. Two years later vs a strong dollar,all the supposed savings vs other funding avenues have turned premium costs(squeezing us badly)with the worst yet to come. A little forward planning on the treasury's part would have averted a painful episode in our economy.
The main purpose of the stock market is to make fools of as many people as possible.

I-REIT closed below IPO price yesterday and not a hoot here. Those who haven't experienced the bear such are the signs then the hopelessness and eventually the deafening silence as the market does its thing. Then thud we hit the solid bottom and reverse.
