@TheG_nius @TheAbojani A true buy limit order should never fill at a price higher than your specified limit,unless it was Stop-limit order.

@InvestingAddict Most people are too emotional and fearful when it comes to decision making to logically select individual stocks,they should only buy VOO and QQQ.

If your portfolio is deep red after the S&P just hit 7,000 you are seriously doing this all wrong.

@SalioMoney @Voice_Roy For starters,South African has a refinery unlike Kenya,secondly,diesel prices in both countries are trading at almost the same rate,paraffin is cheaper in Kenya it's only petrol that is slightly cheaper in South Africa.

@MutugiGathumbi @Voice_Roy Kama hutaki ku compare our fuel prices na za Uganda si basi tujaribu South Africa?

Yes, global prices fluctuate, but the President absolutely controls the taxes, the G2G cartel monopolies, and the MT Paloma payouts that make up nearly half of our Ksh 206 pump price.
If this situation is truly 'beyond the government's control,' then why is landlocked Uganda buying the exact same 'global' fuel 40 shillings cheaper after trucking it right through our borders?
Demanding accountability for state-sanctioned theft isn't 'playing politics'; it's defending our survival.
Bakhita Esther@bakhita_esther
Fuel prices are rising globally, not just in Kenya, due to current world events. This situation is beyond the President's control. Stop playing politics with global issues.

@Voice_Roy @NotMarkDouglas I know you are being disingenuous,my analogy wasn't limited to doctors only,but Kenya generally has better renumeration to it's work force than Uganda,if we went further and included the road networks,then it becomes even clearer why we can't compare the two economies.
English
Gathumbi, your analogy assumes the Hustler's fuel tax actually reaches the doctor. It doesn't. If it did, Kenyan doctors wouldn't be striking. We aren't paying Ksh 206 at the pump to fund public wages; we are paying it to fund bloated government waste, debt holes, and the Ksh 28/litre G-to-G cartel premiums. Fuel is the engine of the economy. You cannot tax the engine to death and expect the car to move. Uganda is cheaper because their fuel isn't carrying the weight of political cartels. Stop using the doctor as a human shield to defend a robbery.
English
@NotMarkDouglas @Voice_Roy If an entry level doctor from country A earns 1400-1450 USD and another doctor from country B same level earns 1,600–3,210 USD,and can be extrapolate to all work force,which country needs more tax collection measures to meet its obligations?
English
@MutugiGathumbi @Voice_Roy That's the whole point, if a landlocked country like UG with a smaller economy is able to retail at lower prices why not us

@DavidNdii If the shilling start weakening,this G-2-G deal will start smelling very badly,and even us,men of reason will raise eyebrows.
English
These are not product prices. It is “Freight & premium” (made up of shipping, insurance and trade margin). Product price has increased from $700 - $800 to ~ $1400. G-to-G only freight & premium is fixed, product price is market based. For product price we use Platts index.

I sat in the committee room yesterday reading emails between ORYX ENERGY LTD and the Ministry of Energy officials, including the Cabinet Secretary, and I was shocked to discover that they were all in agreement to import fuel at USD 253.94 per MT—while the same government they serve imports fuel at USD 84.00 per MT. If OMCs are not taking advantage in cohorts with ministry officials, who is fooling whom? This is an artificial get‑rich‑quick scam orchestrated by a fuel cabal! We are not stupid—only for the deal to be cancelled at the last minute when a shipment of substandard fuel imported by ONE PETROLEUM LIMITED arrived and was offloaded, costing Kenyans the equivalent of USD 198,855 per MT—still USD 114 more per MT than the government’s own G‑to‑G rate.

@RufasKe Insane,it will create both generational wealth and generational bag holders just like BYND.

One reason why we invest is to beat inflation.
In October 2020, super petrol was retailing at Ksh106.55 per litre in Nairobi.
Currently, its retailing at Ksh206.97 per litre.
An increase of about 94%.
If you don’t invest your money and grow it over time, your purchasing power reduces, and you end up buying less with the same amount of money.

The biggest difference between rich and poor countries is the degree of cooperation between strangers.
High-trust, trustworthy people create positive-sum cooperation and first-world conditions.
Low-trust, untrustworthy people create zero-sum competition and third-world conditions.
With low-trust immigrants, White liberals think they’re playing a positive-sum game, but they’re actually playing a negative-sum game, with a zero-sum future

If you are wonder why the dollar has been stable at 130, this might be your answer.
According to experts, the G-to-G fuel was set up not to control fuel prices but focus on dollar control.

@JohnHiuhu A portfolio is like soap,the more you meddle with it,the smaller it gets.
English
Active portfolio management dilutes returns easily. Waiting patiently is where the money is.
I exited some counters at very decent prices.
Nowadays, I buy only and hold.

@KhalifKairo It is laughable for Iran to assume the world's superpower with some of most brilliant brains didn't have a contingency plan when they went into this war.
