As you strategize remember that ordinarily, stock market price falls take a lift on the way down whereas price rallies take the elevator on the way up. Just don't sink in money you would be needing in the next 10 years. That's my strategy, and it's enabled me sleep easy. Granted some stock price rallies may occasionally take a lift on the way up once in a while, but I don't do luck. I speak from a position of many years' experience. If it don't make dollars, it don't make sense

My predicament, I don't have the kind of money that I won't need in 5years let alone 10. I'm looking for a short term investment that I can easily liquidate to meet other obligations in 6months to one year. Your advice?

Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

Not necessarily though I understand the impatience. Warren Buffett has held Coca Cola, AMEX, etc for 10+ years. Imagine having bought Apple in 2010! I am not saying one should buy and not monitor the firm's performance though! Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett

It's more realistic.5 years is also good.Below that not advisable.Let this guy take a money market unit trust.thats for short term goals. Towards the goal of financial freedom

I think current corona prices have already factored in PAT -40% for KCB. There wasn't much blood bath on Friday post announcement. I don't think prices will drop much further down. Recovery of share price will be a long road. I may be wrong but that's my take.

Especially with something that elicits emotions (like the uncertainties brought about by COVID-19) I am NOT saying you should not listen to people. Wazua has very great minds and experienced people and they will give great advice. But once in a very long while "we are all" wrong on something. Okay, most people. Example: Safaricom. When it was going for 2.xy 97% of Wazuans wrote its obituary. And everyone had facts - Bruising price wars, voice is dead, it has too many shares - they would have to be consolidated etc. The collective wisdom was DON'T TOUCH SAFARICOM. It has no hope. Search for old Safaricom threads here you will see (there were many). Oh how wrong (almost) everyone was!! Those who didn't listen can NEVER be in the red. They make more than the purchase price ever two years in dividends and the share trades consistently at more than 10 times their buying price. Personally I have bought Equity heavily. Waiting to make my last two purchases in the next couple of days/weeks then sit pretty. Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

Recovery of share price will be a long road. I may be wrong but that's my take. I think even Wanjiku now has some knowledge on how to interpret results. They understood that the drop on profits is because of increased provisioning due to the current business/health/economic situation. This will not be a permanent phenomenon. You don't sell your matatu in the middle of the day just because the fares are down by 40% you know the rush hour will definitely be back!!! Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.
