Today marks 25 years since the terror attacks that rocked both Nairobi and Dar es Salaam on August 7th, 1998. My thoughts and prayers go out to all those who were affected. For your trading activities for the day and week ahead, attached is the CBK weekly report to assist in your reading of the market while updated benchmark Yield Curve levels are ready for your perusal on the attached pricelist. I have also attached the NSE Implied Yields for the NSE’s valuations of all the treasuries. There are signs that there has been somewhat of an improvement in liquidity levels, as the overnight lending rate dropped in the previous trading session. The market is still tight but we will see how this week plays out. To bring it all together, below is a snapshot of what is at play within the secondary market for your consideration. Happy hunting!
