Eyes on CMA as Nairobi bourse remains shaky

Eyes on CMA as Nairobi bourse remains shaky Monday March 15 2021 Summary The bond market has been ripped by scandals after investors lost their money in collapsed issuers and is now mostly trading government treasuries. In early 2020 the coronavirus pandemic hit stock prices, which fell with foreign investors exiting, sending the bourse to a multi-year low. Perhaps as a testament to its resolve amid the crisis, the Capital Markets Authority (CMA) has returned to the drawing board and now wants to review its 10-year master plan and hopefully reinvigorate the market. With four counters suspended and more companies leaving the Nairobi Securities Exchange(NSE) than those joining, poor off-take of new products and a market so concentrated that one company matches the value of all the other 60 companies, Kenya’s capital market is in a sorry state.

MIDAS SHARE TIPS: Supermarket Income Reit in boost

Recently, however, views have begun to change as industry experts have realised that large stores work for both digital and traditional shoppers.  General e-commerce wisdom suggests online shopping is at its best when goods are dispatched from centralised warehouses. Food retailing is different, however, because so much of it is perishable and profit margins are very low.  Smaller warehouses attached to existing stores are often more cost-effective, allowing supermarkets to serve old-school and online customers from one site.  As this realisation sets in, the big beasts of food retail are looking at their estates with new eyes, seeing big stores as key to their future rather than dinosaurs past their sell-by date.
