During a bull run bonds tend to be lucrative right? So, is it the right time to jump in? and what would it be t-bill 91, 182, or 364 day or bonds 2yr and more?

What does one consider or take into consideration?

Treasury Bill results for value date 28/9/2015 - 91 day 18.607%, 182 day 14.551% and 364 day is 16.301%. One year bond with same value date issued at par with yield of 19.062%.

Let's see what effect this will have on equities going forward...

The yield curve is inverting faster than I thought! Not a good signal for equities.

@kizee1, what's up in the liquidity side. What's sucking up this liquidity? The rates are too high for the short end! Why the liquidity distress?

18% pa. That's 4.5% per quarter!

Do banks still have fixed deposits in this environment? CBK is sucking up liquidity like a blackhole!

"The market weighted average rate was 18.362 %, and the weighted average of accepted bids which will be applied for non-competitive bids was 18.607% up from 14.486% in the previous auction. "

Did the CBK reject bids with lower rates, else how can the average of the accepted bids be higher that the marked weighted average rate?
