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. possunt quia posse videntur

I thought you said you expect the bear to continue even after the elections.... Now you are advising people to buy stocks now and continue accumulating? What has changed? I still do, I think the bear has at the very least another year baked in it. That however is not a reason not to buy...the only difference is one's risk appetite. Right now, stocks are the ugly ducklings of the investing world in KE when juxtaposed with real estate or bonds. For the long game, you buy (at rock bottom prices) when no one is interested in stocks and sit tight...when everyone else comes rushing in you sell to them. The main purpose of the stock market is to make fools of as many people as possible.

But let's see how he responds to your Wanjiku bit I would be careful about owning public assets when sovereign debt bubble starts deflating you will notice you were swimming naked. Already shareholders in public equities KQ, Uchum, NBK, Kenya Power, Kengen having the consequences. Public sector is usually the last to get hit in recessions. Hedge with private assets

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.
