Iamgrey5: The Chinese or Indian will buy it and increase prices of products.
They would change the every day low pricing strategy of Shoprite to premium pricing
They would also stock shoprite with expensive foreign brands or Indian and Chinese brands.
It would reduce customers but increase revenue. This theory only works in text books. In a country that is the poverty capital, you are selling at premium. |

Excuses: First and foremost,congrats for the struggles pains u assets true to save this little... Take my storey serious ex-corper.
In 2015 my father gave me 400,000 to start something with my life,i was 500 level then federal university of Technology Minna..
The questions ur asking now were what i ask muself,only i didn't put it on nairaland.. I brainstormed with few intelligent friends..Am studied Agricultural economics. so the piggery,poultry, etc were all in my head,infact it's been in my dreams to own my farm. but this amount is small,what do i do, i thought to muself.
Boom my inspiration came, to start an egg shop in Abuja.here is the thing.. I bring my eggs from Jos. Jos is close to Abuja.then i was buying 650 per crate in jos & selling 800 hundred in Abuja.650 times 500 crates then was 325,000. I bought i small container pimped it 2 house my eggs. cost of transporting d eggs was 20k.
Since i started i've not regret it 4 a moment.d turnover was impressive.I was paying my sales girl 15k den now she earns 45k.I have almost 4 egg shops in Abuja and one I Benue.
You can only imagine what i have made so far..through out all this years i've learnt one thing in business."If u want something big in life,go for the bigger risks".
Ogun is a home for egg production, you can be a distributor and also own your shops..just make sure u have access to a target market, ur turnover is guaranteed plus egg is multipurpose not like broiler.
Wish u luck... Good Day. I plan on starting this business. How profitable is it? Also how do you safeguard your eggs from breaking during transportation? What's the profit margin on each crate? How do I store the eggs to prevent it from getting spoilt |

Skymoore1004: It depends on your bank. You have to keep bugging them in some cases. Ask T212 to send you transaction receipt, so you can give your bank to track it.
It takes 3-4 working days but can be longer depending on your bank.
I’ve used ZenithBank (2 working days). FidelityBank (3 working days). I sent them transaction receipt and they credited me almost immediately.
Note : you would be credited at a lower exchange rate than what you paid. CBN also takes some charges for International Transactions apparently.
Eg; FidelityBank charged me at almost N530 for Euro. I was paid back with N491. You see the massive difference?
Being a Nigerian in Nigeria is like having a death warrant. The country will frustrate the living daylight out of you! If you’re using a U.K. account, the same amount you withdrew is exactly what you will be credited. No deductions, nothing!
Anyway just keep calling your bank. If you’re banking with FCMB or WEMA or all this smaller banks, it could take 10 days or more (according to some folks in one of my telegram groups).
All the best  Naija matter tire me. I use Stanbic. I would contact trading 212 for a receipt. They already offered to send me one if i have difficulties with my bank. |

Wolgrace: 97 days to go.. Trump is a perfect craft in the hand of his craft masters who owns the two-horn party system..
Chloroquine is not really the cure for the virus invented by the western masters, they are hiding the patent cure from us, but not God..
Trump's strong emphasis on chloroquine and WHO's rejection are media baits and deception to pull zombie crowd unto himself for political score point as a intolerant saviour, and it's a total mockery to mankind..!
Republicans said Chloroquine cures, while democrats said otherwise. Both parties are ONE and controlled by American god-masters, likewise WHO. They are means of dividing masses because division is the foundation of false leaders potrays as saviours. They are destroyers!
Deletion of the viral video is a vital political marketing in the midst of chaos created by them. It's all about Trump, and marketing him is a scripted game to fool the whole world in seeing him as a saviour and one who's on the side of mankind.

Health › Re: Dr Stella Immanuel COVID19 Hydroxychloroquine Video Deleted By Facebook, Twitter by afroxyz: 12:19am On Jul 29, 2020 |
BlindedIrony: Damn! They just had to have a professional black disgraced herself. Just look at how the other doctors stood silently and watched as their black colleague ranted on like a clueless idiot. She may be a doctor, but her practice is obviously limited since she has no idea what is going on. What do you expect from a Nigerian-trained doctor that moved to the US??
What an incompetent brat! This is why we have 4,000,000 damn infected Americans. And, we are still counting our losses. Y'all are not making our jobs around the world easy with this nonsense.
One of my girlfriend's friends caught the corona. She is dying. Just last week, we had a video call with her. She is confined in her house with oxygen tanks. She CANNOT breathe without artificial respiration. Her sons had to go away, so they cannot get it. Also, I know a woman that used to deliver food to us at the hospital. She got corona and she died within a week! Her husband was not even allowed to see her due to a high risk of infection.
For the so-called illiterate experts that are out there- people who think they know it all because of an out-dated medical education, hydroxychloroquine CANNOT kill a virus. IT IS MEANT FOR THE PROTIST GROUP. A protist is a microscopic organism that can cause a disease when it invades the body. A notable example is Plasmodium- which is responsible for MALARIA. Plasmodium is a parasite. It is its biological byproduct that causes malaria. Unlike plasmodium, a virus is NOT AN ORGANISM. It is a strand of RNA or DNA wrapped in a protein shealth.
What does it mean?
It means that once a virus finds its way to your body. Its outer protein coat has spikes that are codes. If its code matches the cellular code, your cells are tricked into accepting it thinking it is one of them. Once the virus goes into your cells, it tries to use your cell's chromosomes to replicate exact copies of itself. It will keep doing this, until your cells cannot hold it anymore. So your cells lyse themselves due to pressure to release the virus- meaning they burst. A notable example is the mouth sores (Herpes Virus). This is why cold sores are very infectious. It happens all the time too for infected people!
Now, malaria drugs are ineffective against viruses. This is because viruses cannot be knocked out by anti-malarial drugs, so that the virus can be eaten by your own body soldiers (white blood cells like phagocytes, T-Cells and B-Cells and Macrophages). A virus is a genetic code that becomes active inside your body. So why exactly are you looking to knock out with Malaria drugs and zinc??
The reason why anti-malaria works against Plasmodium is because they either numb them for the white blood cells to attack overwhelmingly, or they kill Plasmodium. Either way, Plasmodium will not be able to use its enzymes to get into cells in order to feed. Compare to Plasmodium, viruses are so small that Plasmodium will not even see them , if they lived in a world together!
I am angry that they had this black doctor say these things, when everyone in second year medical school knows that there are ONLY TWO ways of killing viruses in the body. First, viruses are killed in the body through vaccines(an antigen containing weak viruses) injected into the body. When the white blood cells see them, they can attack them successfully. When the virus are eaten, the phagocytes will regurgitate pieces of the virus to the B-Cells and T-Cells. These cells store the bits of the virus, so they can learn to recognize the virus entry again. And, use the strategy the phagocytes used for successful viral elimination. If you do not believe me, ready any advanced medical microbiology textbook or GOOGLE. The second way of killing virus is to stop their cycles. Viruses have cycles. From cell entry to cell lysis. Once anti-viral medication messes up one of the cycles, a whole generation can be wiped off due their inability to continue the cycles. The second way does not always work, because some viruses can recode their protein shells to match the cells. So, your white bloods cannot see them in the blood stream because they blend as body cells and white blood cells only attack foreign antigens (except in extremely rare cases like cancer and others). Also, anti-viral medication cannot work because the viruses are so smaller than cells that they can hide in your cell nucleus. There is no way a drug can reach them or even white blood cells. White blood cells do not even go into cells to attack! They have to get the virus before it goes into the cells. Sometimes, a cell has to die early by bursting to send invasion signals to other cells who will create little gaps for white bloods to get in and attack whatever was released.
Besides this, anti-viral medications rarely attack the strong protein coat of viruses. That is why cold sores, hepatitis A B C , HPV, HIV and others do not have anti-viral cure. Rather Hepatitis and HPV have some sorta vaccines to introduce weak viruses that your body can take care of and store the memory of attack for next viral invasion.
Anyways, enough of microbiology.
Now, it takes a fool to say COVID is not real. It is as real as you. And, it has come to stay like HIV and others. Remember HIV killed millions during its early stages until it was regulated? Still no cure today. There are actually no viral cure. Only vaccines help boost our body soldiers- the white blood cells. That is why HIV first kills off your white blood cells, before cell entry. So, protect yourself. Wear masks. Just because a person is a doctor does not mean they have all the answers. Medical doctors ARE NOT research scientists. If scientists say to wash hands regularly, wear mask and stay six feet, just shut your trap and do it. Stop being selfish. Stop spreading fake news with no evidence. And Good God, stop being an instrument of mass infection!
It is as simple as that. Geez! The game is beyond what you read in scientific journals. Open your eyes. There is a much bigger scheme happenjng. You think you sound inetlligent, but you are wallowing in ignorance. |

Jayjaycee18: The market seems to be weary of pharmaceutical stocks amidst the endless drama of Covid-19 vaccine trials. There wasn't a surge in $AZN's price, in spite of its very promising vaccine trial result. Pfizer ($PFE) has a very good dividend yield and its a good stock to have in a portfolio. Not sure if this news would make it fly, but $PFE is expected to beat earnings estimates when 2Q2020 report is released on July 28, which may propel the stock on a sustained bullish run. As always, DD is required.
Bonne chance!!! Would wait till next week for AZN. Heard options on the stock would expire this Friday. Probably that's what is holding it down despite its positive news. Added PFE to portfolio already. |
