The FTSE vs FTSE NSE indices divergence is an excellent opportunity for those that can see it.

The moment the sovereign debt crisis strikes, equities will meltup beyond reason...
$15/barrel oil... The commodities lehman moment arrives as well as Sovereign debt volcano!

@hisah which NSE FTSE? 15 or 25. Is there a site that allows viewing of both to ease comparison? Yes once govt bonds go belly up, equities will rally.

I use the FT.com site.

NSE indices have fared poorly since the beginning of 2016 as seen on the cartoon below. Diverging from global stocks. Think



Meanwhile the bank stocks gap downs are getting filled in equal energy as the bounce back hits swiftly. FTSE NSE KE indices are filling the gap today with gains above 3% intraday. However, the technical critical support damage is strong. Those rushing in thinking this is a bottom, caution!

I am no cartoonist but the demand supply situation in KCB and Equity does not convince me they will rally much more from here.On the broader market EABL goes ex dividend tomorrow and Safaricom on Monday and those two could pull the market further south.

Seconded. The index is a hair's breadth above the 3000 mark yet safcom is at or near its all time highs, Eabl is trading at a premium likewise for BAT and a couple more counters. Equity and Kcb have been relegated from the untouchable big boy club...same fate awaits the remaining set for the bottom to give way.

Close to 2400 points down and overvalued stocks abound in their numbers. This ain't over in my opinion. My guess is that the next downleg aka the sub 3000 journey will be swifter than what we have been subjected to thus far.
The main purpose of the stock market is to make fools of as many people as possible.

Mr Mugasa said the focus on KAM was a result of the concerns following the 2008 global financial crisis that saw auditors come increasingly under scrutiny for failure to forewarn stakeholders about key corporate and economic developments affecting the financial position and going concern-basis of the firms they audited.

Auditors were accused of not drawing attention to the factors that could affect the viability of the companies before they collapsed in the aftermath of the financial crisis.

“From now on, an audit report will start with giving you the audit opinion and then proceed to elaborate on key audit matters for the year. This will not necessarily be negative information, but merely to say what major factors were at play for the company during the year,” said Mr Mugasa.
There are only two emotions in the stock market, fear and hope. The problem is, you hope when you should fear and fear when you should hope

What incentives exist for the audit firms in order for them to shoot the hand that feeds them? Reading rating agency reports or auditor reports like the gospel truth is one sure way of flying blind! When vested interests are sky high, the gatekeepers are paid well to look the other way. The markets have operated this way for eons.

Auditors are not witch hunters.There scope is only limited to the information provided by management.

If one does not trust the Board or Management, do not bother investing in the firm.
I do not touch firms controlled by Merali, Matu, Obura, Nyammo, etc for this reason.
Among the not-to-be-touched include GoK firms [except KenRe for now].
