Think you're right.
The earlier concern I equally raised was the timing aspect. Those SEC guys can delay unnecessarily. If I could remember well, we've been waiting for the outcome since December or so.
I can remember how frustrating Continsure was........before they eventually approved and finalized the taking over.
See the case of Law Union too.
Anyway, it's frustrating discussing ventures like this here....cos of the "I told you so" gang. Wish both parties good luck.

My Oga make we leave matter for mathius, Erisco get hin own issue which is in public domain

i am not aware that CBN is stoping any exporter from selling proceeds of exports on the IEW since its inception in 2016, so why he cant sell hin own money to hin self via the IEW is what should be talked to as per Erisco

even the FPI / international DFI acknowledged that the IEW is free and functional market. The only issue with it is lack of depth / liquidity

but make we leave all dis grammar make we pray make dem solve d problem b4 all this global excess liquidity go dry up, so that NSE (indirectly me &u) can get its own share
IEW was established in 2017

My Oga i have told you to take all this remittance reports with a pinch of salt.

All the reports are resting on a survey / publication done by PWC which in itself had been questioned on the definition it ascribe to Remittance. For example the remittance reffered to by PWC in its report include non oil export proceed (and is even the largest contributor) which is outside the scope of Diaspora Remittance, and this non oil export proceed is even presently part of IEW market. the other leg of which could rightly be defined as Diaspora remittance (i.e. money sent by Chukwudi/ Adebola / Abdulrahman) as stated by Oga OGG via western union / moneygram e.t.c are not that big circa less than $5b annually, this also is currently on the table becos it is dollars proceed from such remittance that pre covid CBN channeled to BDC weekly sales / PTA / BTA. So on a bigger picture like you all part of the remittance are already in the market place

But as a said in my last post why pre 2015 all the so called remittances werent able to stop / stall devaultions? why do the FPI catch cold once oil price go south, if the so called remittance is of such big impact on the FX plays in Nigeria

las las make we pray make dem (CBN) sort / solve the FX problem quick so that some of those global liquidity can find its way down to NSE, becos na thier my own garri dey
https://businesspost.ng/economy/forex-crisis-erisco-foods-folds-sacks-1500-workers/?nonamp=1&amp=1

And why is CBN not allowing Erisco Foods to use his FX?

“My business has been deliberately frustrated by the way the CBN has managed forex bidding and allocation.
“They won’t give us forex to import machinery, machine spare parts and raw materials for processing Nigerian fresh tomatoes into paste in our Lagos factory and they won’t give us approval to use our own money (about $460,000) generated from our foreign operations to import our raw materials.

My Oga this Diaspora funds is overrated

Forget abt the futuristic figure qouted by PWC which was latched onto by politician to score cheap political points

werent the Diaspora remittance available before 2016? if so why was it not able to stop / stall all devaluations before then (i.e. b4 2016)

CBN placed restrictions in 2016 on remittances because it has become a black hole aiding all sorts of crime (laundering e.t.c.) however the CBN still designed another route for the same remittances inflow to reach retail end user by channeling all inflow via remittance to BDC weekly sales / PTA/ BTA.

Anyway we had both agreed on the fact that there is a supply (either through FPI / reduced oil receipt as I stated or via Remittances as u stated) problem which if not resolved wld continue to impact negatively on NSE
GonFreecss1:
Wrong sir. Diaspora? How much can they send?

The only thing saving us is and has always been crude oil.

In 2018 alone we spent 44 billion USD saving the naira, how much do Diaspora people want to send to cover that?

1 billion? 2? This is the reason I called a bear on the NSE then and I was right when many here were arguing. What happened last last?

Let us pray Crude oil prices don’t drop further or coronavirus situation doesn’t become sticky, else... the man called “robobo” above has described things well. It won’t be funny at all.
You are not going the bigger picture.

All these FX burden CBN is carrying is unnecessary if they had allowed owner of FX remittance to get their FX, not Naira.

Most Companies and individuals formally get their FX from various export businesses and other FX remittances.

But they are now forced to source FX through CBN form M or the black-market at higher rates.

Diaspora remittances which constitutes the major weighting of FX inflow, is I think, what @ obagadafi is referring to.
The CBN need not fund such plays... it only needs to ease the management policy in that window of inflow and I can authoritatively tell u that at least 60% of our Fx shortfall/need will be covered.

Globally, Diapora remittances is one of the pivotal determinant to maintaining the demand-supply balance in Fx transactions.

If Chima, Osita, Ahmed and Kabiru sends $25,000 each from the abroad and their families can't access the funds and sometimes strugle to get their Fx equivalents from the banks, then u'd naturally expect that supply would be bridged over demand.
If a part of that collective of $100,000 sent by all 4 persons were easily accessible(without Naira conversion) then of course some of those funds would find their way to the market and help ease demand.

It might interest u to know that the total value of diaspora remittances has often superseded the country's yearly budgetary peg.
Imagine if some of these aren't in place.

There are lots to say, but if u understood matters to this point then u'd agree that the Fx challenge in Nigeria is not about supply(higher demand) but about SUPPLY MANAGEMENT brought about several unorthodox policies(restrictions) and bad governance from the fiscal end.
This over time created that disconnect where demand continues to overshadow supply.

Let's hope that we shall overcome this in due course.

Selah
Exactly, diaspora remittances were actually plugging the hole in FX supply.

Before now most, importers don't need form M because they are going FX from their partners and export business.

my Oga that soultion is not that simple

where is the FX to give them?

OMO maturity btw April and June was of $6b, if as data suggested that FPI constitute the bulk in that (OMO) market place up to as much as 60% then it can safely mean abt $3.6b want to leave d country (that is not counting other markets oooo e.g. Stock ) you wld be talking abt $4 - $4.5b that want to leave. the sales in IEW window btw same period was $900m -- $1b taking the two together you wld have a net of $3 -- $3.5b FPI funds trapped. THE $3.5b above excludes the need of other FX users (importers / fuel / debt service e.t.c)

My Oga if all above is taking together CBN wld need to find abt $10b, if u take $10b out of current reserve it wld give you $25b left of which some component of the remaining $25b is illiquid due to several factors e.g. swap lines / gold holding e.t.c) then you are looking at $15b liquid left which is barley able to cover 2 months of imports.

My Oga if above plays out (i.e. giving them the remittance as you stated) there wld be a massive run on the Naira and by then i doubt if anything of wld be left of the NSE that we currently play. so you see CBN is caught between two hard rocks and it is just doing its best till inflow (post covid / higher oil price) wld allow it to better manage situation
Diaspora remittance is one of the big sources on FX in Nigeria.

Pre-2015 CBN restrictions most Nigerians don't need CBN form M to get FX.

You get you FX from Western-Union etc, and trade it with anyone, so we have surplus FX in circulation.

Now Diasporans don't send much FX anymore, since the CBN is hoarding it.

These CBN restrictions created the current FX crises.

FX business is demand and supply.

What we are experiencing is a supply problem.

That is exactly what they dont want him to do hence d debacle, what they want is free float and Oga Buhari (not even meffy) is very abhorrent to that

on a purcahsing power parity d naira wld be fairly priced between 380 -- 420, considering that the Naira is already at the tail end of this spectrum, one wld have assumed that the FPI should be coming in by now but that is not the case which means they want more (Egypt 2016 comes to mind).

i think both party (Nigeria vs FPI) wld eventually settle for the middle ground i.e. a single rate for all markets but which is being managed by CBN by being the MM in that market.

Hw soon that wld happen is what i cant say because the CBN wld need a large war chest (circa 40 - 45b reserve) to effectively play MM for a single market which they dont currently have. i doubt if the FPI wld come in until that middle ground is achieved.

So this current consolidation might go on for a long time and even has a higher probability of spurring a downtrend if it lingers for too long (though not like that seen in March)
The simple solution is for the CBN to ease the FX restrictions,, by allowing owners of FX remittance to get their funds in the foreign currencies and not Naira.

Anyway NSE is moving at a slow pace along side the our economy unlike those in EU and US that are skyrocketing and causing a sharp disconnect between the real economy and the stock market. This is could cause a bubble in the developed markets.

How exactly do operators fool the retail investors in the stock market?

To understand how operators fool innocent investors and make a killing themselves by playing with micro cap shares, let us take this example (I’ll follow it up with a real life example as well):

Sly Operator’s Name: Chulbul
Innocent Investor’s Name: Pandey
Stock: Dabang Ltd.

Chulbul owns 1,00,000 shares of Dabang Ltd., a small cap firm.

It is a long term holding but Chulbul wants to make money every now and then out of his rather large holding.

Chulbul knows well that all investors follow an age old adage that says “price action always follows volumes.”

Chulbul also knows that many investors keep an eye on stocks whose volumes are increasing and tend to jump in when they see a spike.

So, here’s what Chulbul does:

He notes that Dabang Ltd. is either holding steady or falling or in an uptrend or has not reacted to news, and there are no spikes in its average traded volume.

Here’s what he does:

Chulbul fills in a sell order at the going rate for 10,000 shares, and discloses 1000.

The quantity is picked up after some time.

Chulbul enters another sell order for 10,000 or 20,000 shares and discloses 10% of the quantity. He also enters a BUY of an equal number of shares (of his previous order) at Rs 1 lower than his selling price.

By the time the new sell order is absorbed, volumes spike up. Many investors looking at the volumes get excited.

At this time, our innocent investor Pandey gets all excited at the spike in volumes and he picks up 5,000 shares of Dabang Ltd.

Chulbul meanwhile keeps selling Dabang Ltd. until 1,00,000 shares are absorbed.

At this time, or sometime before, buyers realize that someone is selling out. Many buyers cannot afford to take deliveries or pay margins because they are day traders.

They panic. Pandey panics too.

Most day traders and those who do not want to hold the stock start selling out.

Dabang Ltd. falls by Re 1.

Chulbul mops up whatever quantity he sold, makes a cool Re 1 buck per share (net 93-95 paise per share after intraday brokerage plus taxes).

Even if Chulbul could sell and buy 40,000 shares, he would make a cool Rs 36,000+ in a matter of a few hours.

Even if he loses some paise per share, he will know that he has spurred interest in the stock and if he keeps up his game, he will make a bigger killing in a few days.

That’s cool money to make without taking a risk.

Now here’s a real life example:

Know that I am not accusing anyone of manipulating investors.

I am pointing out a transaction in which an investor bought and sold the same number of shares on a given day at different prices.

The following screenshot is from the NSE bulk deals page on 3 August 2017.


You will see that in this case, the investor incurred a loss of 6 paise per share on a transaction of 1,45,000 shares.

But that’s not the end of the story. It’s the beginning.

Now check the historical data of the same stock:


Here’s your proof:

AMD Industries volumes were hovering around 7,000 per day and the price was around 29 before operator/s got into the game.

The volumes per day climbed to 1,43,800 and then to 3,50,000 and then to 5,95,000 in 3 days.

The stock spiked from 29 to a high on 35.90.

Today, on 4 August 2017, the price has settled down to 32. I assume that by this time the operator would have made a large packet.

Please note that I am not accusing anyone, I am merely pointing out that this is how BSE and NSE operators can work to make easy money. There is nothing illegal in this activity because they will be paying taxes on market gains.
