That Interest rate is more like testing the waters smile

Some dividend yields are almost paying similar rates!!!

The headlines are now spotting that fund managers have moved into the treasuries market as equities are RIP. Do you know what happens when a trade/market becomes crowded...?

Stick with the hated equities...

There is a lot of interest from newbies in the Tbill/bond market too. Another stock rout will kill all bulls and send them scampering to Tbills/bonds then the NSE20 bottoms out and the crowd is trapped in govt paper. Buying stocks now affords you a nice window where you won't chase prices and you are able to accumulate as much as you possibly can.


Isnt getting trapped based on your investment strategy?If I can comfortably hold a 15-20 or 30 year bond I guess one is fine...

A fund can hold out for that long, but not wanjiku!


Boss I hold...1.11.20...1.12.20...1.11.30...good amounts.I am holding them till maturity.


If you're getting a return of >13% on an IB, doesn't that qualify as a sound investment?
But let's see how he responds to your Wanjiku bit


Personally it is...its obvious in the long run equities outperform bonds but you have to have your eye on the market at all times (on equities i.e)...

If I had @Maka's money I would use my bond proceeds to buy equities as a hedge...


Equity is high return but verrrry risky.
Imagine if you edged KQ and Mumias shares in 2002 for a 30 year window viz someone who bought IFB at 15% at the time.

working on that makes a lot of sense with this depressed prices...btw CBA offers a facility on bonds...up to a max of 80% of holdings...72month payment period.


More details on the CBA deal please?


Whats your email I forward it to you....

M-Akiba to be launched tommorrow.

Time is money, so money is time. Money saved is time gained in reverse! Money stores your life’s energy. You expend your energy, get paid money, and store that money for a future purchase made in a currency.

Ok,the problem is that I saw a bond application form which only requires the name of next of kin,no contact details required?Would be tricky should the next of kin not even be aware about the investment.

If you hide the details from spouse/next of kin, then they are taken to unclaimed items after some period ..... i think 3 years for the Gava (read Jubilee) to use in 'developing' the economy on your behalf to better the life/lives of your next of kin. You know where your money will go!!!!
