RealityShot:With due respect, but it is unfortunate that you have wasted your time reading all these while. You may as well call all investors and those that are managing all the companies/industries in the Nigeria Stock Exchange gamblers or Baba Ijebu. Thereafter you can refer to the New York Stock Exchange and all exchange in the world as Gambling Plaza. The truth be told, investing in the stock exchange means that you become a shareholder of a holding entity/company. Think of being a shareholder in Nestle, Unilever, Zenith etc. The NSE will remain a gambling site for you if you do not know what you are doing. 3 Likes |

kolaish: If only we could all show some respect for each other. It was possible for you to respond to his gambling claim without the disrespect. Give your opinion on what you think of the stock market....... straight to the point..... And an healthy discussion ensues. We have had too much animosity these past few days and I think we all should just calm down. Show respect, love and thoughtfulness towards others. Esteem others better,wiser and smarter than you are..... It doesn't diminish you. That way, we have mutual respect for each other. 5 Likes |

Gambling can assume different meanings. In a way, we all gamble but not the act of playing games to win money. We all take a risk, because of uncertainty, hoping to get a desired result. When you take educated guesses during a multiple choice answer exam, it's a gamble. When you choose to follow Ikorodu road instead of Third Mainland bridge in order to avoid traffic, it's still a gamble. That said, acquiring a stake in a company with the hope that the company performs well is not clear-cut gambling. But wait o, buying FTN Cocoa now and hoping it will rise 'one day' might be textbook gambling. So I think the basis and risk level should be a factor. 1 Like |

If trading stocks is gambling then everything that involves buying and selling is equally a gamble.. Had to go and dig this out. @RealityShot please read this A share of common stock is ownership in a company. It entitles the holder to a claim on assets as well as a fraction of the profits that the company generates. Too often, investors think of shares as simply a trading vehicle, and they forget that stock represents the ownership of a company. In the stock market, investors are constantly trying to assess the profit that will be left over for shareholders. This is why stock prices fluctuate. The outlook for business conditions is always changing, and so are the future earnings of a company. Assessing the value of a company isn't an easy practice. There are so many variables involved that the short-term price movements appear to be random (academics call this the Random Walk Theory); however, over the long term, a company is supposed to be worth the present value of the profits it will make. In the short term, a company can survive without profits because of the expectations of future earnings, but no company can fool investors forever—eventually, a company's stock price can be expected to show the true value of the firm. Gambling, on the contrary, is a zero-sum game. It merely takes money from a loser and gives it to a winner. No value is ever created. By investing, we increase the overall wealth of an economy. As companies compete, they increase productivity and develop products that can make our lives better. Don't confuse investing and creating wealth with gambling's zero-sum game. 5 Likes |

The One Man Who Could Send Oil To $100 By Cyril Widdershoven - Apr 19, 2018, 6:00 PM CDT The future of North Africa’s leading oil and gas producer Libya is once again under threat. International media reports that Libya’s strongman General Khalifa Haftar, leader of the LNA, the largest and strongest military power in the country, has had a stroke. Libyan and Arab news sites stumble over each other predicting the death or incapacitation of the Libyan military strongman, which would without doubt increase internal instability and could lead to a renewed power struggle in eastern Libya. Political initiatives led by several Arab countries, the UN, U.S. and EU, are to all intense and purposes null and void at present, as without clarity about the power of the LNA these deals may well fall apart. A potential removal of Haftar from the delicate balance of power that has been created in Libya will also put anti-IS and Al Qaeda military operations in doubt. The first signs of upheaval following the news of Hafar’s stroke are already apparent, with the LNA’s second-in-command, Abdelrazak Al Nadhuri, surviving a car bomb in Libya’s eastern city of Benghazi on Wednesday. The LNA reported that Al Nadhuri "escaped unharmed from a terrorist assassination attempt after a car bomb exploded... as his convoy passed" the Sidi Khalifa district at the eastern entrance to Benghazi. A Syrian and Sudanese national were caught in the explosion. The attack came directly after the first press statements that Haftar had been hit by a stroke or was in coma. While Haftar has been largely out of the public eye in the last few weeks, French officials have reiterated that he is health and that he received a medical treatment in Paris. Related: The Bullish And Bearish Case For Oil The possible removal of Haftar will lead not only to unrest in his powerbase, the Eastern Region of Libya, but will likely cause instability within the LNA itself as the military strongman has not officially appointed any successor or second-in-command. A possible succession battle may take place between three potential successors that are reported to be waiting for their own chance to gain power. Haftar's sons, Khaled and Saddam, each heading their own powerful and well-equipped brigades in the LNA, are slated to be first-in-line. Haftar’s closest ally and cousin Oun Furjani, could also be vying for power. Some sources within the LNA also have stated that General Abdussalam al-Hasi, who is commander of special operations, could play a significant role. Haftar will also be missed the upcoming military operations by the LNA, which is backed by Egypt, the UAE, and Russia, and the still existing Western Libya based Libyan government, which is supported by the EU and UN. In the south of Libya, Daesh and Al Qaeda are still powers to be reckoned with, while under the radar an old Libyan power player has emerged again. Saif Ghadaffi, son of the former Libyan dictator, has entered the political fray and has openly stated that he will be running for office in the next elections. Despite his father being forcibly removed from office, Saif Ghadaffi seems to be enjoying support in wide regions of Libya. Some groups have already stated that Saif could be the only politician with the power to reunite Libya and bring back stability and prosperity. 1 Like |

NAIRAMETRICS HAS AN ANSWER TO GAMBLING AND VALUE STOCKS. The Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) All Share Index (ASI) in the past few weeks has been bearish. Year to date gains have since dropped to 6.6% from January’s high of 15.95%. Investors have however increasingly shifted their focus to smaller cap stocks. In Wednesday’s trading session, Jaiz Bank was the top gainer as it appreciated by 10%. Learn Africa was last week’s top gainer, up 18.56%. Prior to that, LASACO Assurance emerged as the top gainer, up 21.2%. For the week ended 13th April, Wema Bank was the 2nd best gainer, up 32% and topped only by GSK Consumer (which has been in the news due to its payment of a special dividend). And what about Thursday’s trading session? The top 8 in descending order were Oando, Courtville, Eterna, Fidson, Wema Bank, Sovereign Insurance and Hallmark Insurance and Equity Assurance. Apart from Oando, these are all small cap stocks with limited upsides in the medium to long term. These stocks are often referred to as Jump in Jump Out “JIJO” stocks and are typically bull traps that we like to avoid by all means. Despite the risks inherent in JIJO stocks, investors still find them very attractive and flock towards them at the slightest sign of a bull run. Characteristics of JIJO stocks Huge returns – Just likePonzi schemes (not saying they are Ponzis) JIJO stocks have the incredible knack of returning huge returns in the short term. From experience, they can return as high as 120% over a period of two months before receding. Don’t rely on Fundamentals Also, they need not have strong fundamentals to attract investors. JIJO stocks, more often than not, do not pay dividends, are not up to date with results and sometimes, are perpetually loss making. Nevertheless, investors flock to them like fleas. Lowly priced – JIJO stocks are also lowly priced, giving investors an impression that they are cheap;whereas the stocks are often regarded as being cheap when their price earnings ratio and price to book ratios are well below industry average or trading below their perceived intrinsic value. For most investors who love JIJO stocks, a stock with a share price of 50kobo can get you 200,000 units with just N100,000. When they move, they gallop – Because of their low costs, the prices can rise rapidly as you don’t need so much in terms of market capitalisation to acquire enough volumes that can turnover. Share prices rise or fall when volumes turnover via transactions. Very Risky – In a bull trap, stocks that have been declining in price suddenly start climbing. This spike is temporary however and is usually followed by a sharp and sustained decline in price. In fact, when the price starts dropping, you hardly see anyone looking to buy. How to benefit from this Some experienced investors that we have spoken to explained that they take short-term positions in such stocks because of the lucrative returns and the adrenalin rush of trading high risk equities. They enter the stocks currently bubbling and exit at 15-20% after a few days. Cheap transaction fees mean that a round trip (a buy and sell transaction) would only cost a maximum of 3.2%. Most of them told us that they set an exit target and when they hit it, they bail out. “Those who get trapped here often do so either because they are greedy, or are not paying attention to market trends” one trader who declined to be named explained to Nairametrics. Newbies should be cautious We do not like trading JIJO stocks and avoid them.Trading in such stocks is like engaging in a Ponzi scheme; the first movers are typically the ones who make the most money, while those who come in at the tail end of the ride, typically lose out. You really have to be trading stocks for a living and have a knack for high-speed adrenalin pumping trade. Retail investors, who have returned to the market following last year’s stellar performance, should be cautious. They would be best served if they stuck to blue chips and mid-cap stocks with fundamentals. 2 Likes |

locodemy: Bad experience? Not quite. Started my working life as an external auditor with Price Waterhouse (PW). So I know red flags. I also learn how to review company strategy and see how it gives them a competitive edge. As much as possible, i read annual reports (now listen to conference calls). I see buying shares as OWNERSHIP of a company. There are some companies I don't want to associate with. It does not matter how much money people are making there, if it does not meet my investment philosophy I stay away. People made a lot of money from Forum, Umana Umana, NOSPETCO, MMM etc! You will never find me near them. There are plenty avenues to make money but not all of them fits my investment philosophy. NOTE: I don't make a BUY or SELL recommendation. I provide some insight and allow you to make your call. There are many reasons why people may decide to BUY or SELL so I don't interfere with their decision.
