Continuing as a trader is more important to me than dreaming of fat profits....
Capital preservation is my first law, my second law is the first law, to make sure I do not forget the first law...

Yes ooo.. Capital preservation first..

@bolded I feel one of the significance of Sam curing sir Jorah is that Danny needs a war strategist in her cabinet right now... Sir Jorah will come in handy. I'm sure he's heading straight to drangonstone and we might well see another time travelling of a westerousy. ..

Exactly, thats the likely miracle...... Dany and team will fumble till the end, Sir Jorah shows up as a war veteran strategist and turn the table against Cersei.

Cersei may not agree to surrender but if Jamie see the Army of the Dead once....he may threaten Cersei and join hands with Jon Snow, Dany to fight the White Walkers. All these war mongering amongst all participants will stop once they see the Army of the Dead.

Everyone understand that the end has come, no throne for anyone. Even Jon Snow and Tormund clear for area when they see the Army of the Dead.

Except the movie makers are trying to portray dany,Tyrion and her entire war advisers hopeless and helpless, I expect her to ride over to castlyrock and burn euron's fleet to the ground.

What is the essence of letting Dany and team overrun castlyrock and euron fleet to the ground...

We need the suspense jare ....let Cerci win some good part of the war and let one miracle save the day for Dany...

.....Identifying stocks that can suddenly turn illiquid and stay illiquid without blinking for days or weeks is another skill...

- Coys with solid fundamentals though thinly traded.
- May not be suitable for the JIJO, but I ve made quite some serious dough from both stocks even far above stocks that are liquid.
- Entered my first trade on Presco ard May at =N=49/50, sold in July =N=71/73 before closure of books
- Entered another trade after closure at =N=61.00 same July and yet its already doing =N71.00 as at today
- Bth stock will continue to break out with thin volume
- Rencap placed Okomu value above N80, & Presco value above N=95
- We all know palm oil biz is good bizness in Naija 2day.

stcool:
Currentprice, Chibuking8, Loco & Peter una go buy at 52 weeks high last last.

I would rather ride the trend and lock in profits.

Locking your profit is key in trading.

I am telling you there are other opportunities waiting for you... just look at what Presco and Okomu is doing to my portfolio.

Mpeace:
What makes you think its fair price is N11, the esp is just 1naira 15kobo.

It is still a long journey to =N=11.00.

No major news till year end again..there will still be pull back along the journey if this even reach the price

Sold 50% of my holdings in DF...

ihedioramma:
Yes sir .

Likely interim dividend news and +ve report is at play for the likes of Zenith, GT, Access etc....

Dont put too much hopes on FBN rally but best days for FBN is gradually approaching... definitely not now.

Something is clearly wrong with doing business in Nigeria ...

The parent company invested $13 billion in Gulf Area to attract over 40 milllion subscribers, with high world class services , how can Etisalat Nigeria invest $20 billion for 22 million subscribers with epiletic services and a debt ridden company?

tonytizzle:
People look down on farming. Why?

- Farming in Nigeria is still at its crude stage...just production with archaic tools...
- Processing of farm inputs in the value chain is almost zero....
- Middlemen/Agent problem is an hydra headed monster, they always cheat farmers...
- Lack of Govt subsidy to encourage farmers....
-the average farmer is at the last man in the chain..... he bear all the risks ...... with almost no value for all his efforts.
- Lastly, we only have few successful farmers on the commercial level.

If anyone can work around all the above problem... then that individual is on a goldmine.

There are folks selling farmlands in Iseyin, call them and book a visitation.
Make a list of things you need to know during your trip
Stay in a low cost hotel for 2 or 3 days
Get all your information and make your final decision
You can visit again and again if you require any info.

eleojo23:
It is not money chasing.

Why do people always have problem with Christians prospering?
If it was a non-christian that said this now, nobody will say it's money chasing.

Well, whatever you call it, the fact is, Christians/christian organisations are going to prosper beyond what people have ever seen and many will be surprised.
Just watch out.

No one have a problem with Christian prosperity, but there is a problem when a church is as rich as the IMF and the World Bank and yet 112m Nigerians are living below poverty level and more Nigerians are still joining them below that poverty level.

God made the Church rich so they can uplift the poor, God made the Church strong so they can help the weak.

We have a long way to go in Nigeria and Africa as a whole.

In a land where not less than 112m Nigerians (not less than 67.10%) are living below poverty level, this is the type of pronouncement that is coming from the Church. Warren Buffet that is worth over $73.2 billion dollars donated 99% of his wealth to philanthropic causes.

Bill Gates in 2013 says "I have no use for money,this is God’s work". This was after spending over $28bn for charity purpose and also convincing other mega rich folks that this is the way of the future. Gates explains: “The vast majority of the wealth, over 95 per cent, goes to the foundation, which will spend all that money within 20 years after neither of us are around any more.”

We need the church to lift million and millions of Nigerians out of poverty, and give them hope in this hour of darkness and hunger.

kai......1to 2434 is too muvh


Plz sumariz

You need to find for yourself the art of trading. You seek knowledge and I showed you the path to knowledge.

Here you are complaining....

pesinfada:
Nigerian stock? Pls how?

Go to the Investment Section of Nairaland, search for the topic " Nigerian Stock Exchange Market Pick Alerts " Read from Page 1 to 2434... Start from there

Reference:
No. Location does not guarantee success. Fundamentally, as long as you create and sustain value, you can prosper in any place. The three magnets of success are skill, risk and effort. Have them and you will become rich with time irrespective of where you are. 80 percent of revenues acrruable to footballers playing in the premiership comes from overseas attracted to an outstanding brand that offers great value. Many people work from home and I'm sure you've heard of the Indian ICT revolution drawing in billions from Europe and America in everything from calls to software to gaming from shanty basements next to paddy fields. Much of the stuff you use today comes from China. The average Chinese man has never been near an airport.

No, you don't need to travel, just create value. Most people who travel go to 'seek', most people who succeed on the other hand have it in them. I'm at the UK, the States, Canada, Germany, France, Spain and other countries almost on a daily basis but I do not go there, my business does on my behalf. So my economy is not Nigerian but my location is and I have no intention whatsoever of ever stepping into an airport or attending a visa interview. It is my hope that it is my clients who will do the travelling after all it is me sweating day after day to create value. I have no reason to run up and down as well.

Best post...

ijoka:
OP, reading your story i have to ask myself that hope am not the one that wrote this in my subconsciousness​. i am also under pressure to get a visa and leave this country. I lost my job last year due to downsizing and i have tried some very small Businesses with what i had but at the end none is yielding, people owing me here and there. The economic environment is not friendly.

In all sincerity, i do not really keen about travelling out but what other options do i have left now, i am in my late thirty with a family and we all need to survive. The few companies that are employing make tougher their recruitment Process due to large, unprecedented number of people in the labour market, this make it a bit hard to get a job now. There is no hope in sight that things will get better any time soon.

Well, i am still trusting God on this before i take any decision.

Can relate with your post, dont stop praying and doing critical evaluation.

We can make our plans, but the LORD determines our steps. Prov 16, 9

You should try and focus on providing services rather than product based business...

Try and look at business you can do right in your house, trading Nigerian stocks is a perfect example....

Which of your no is on Whatzup?

Nigerian universities will not be like Harvard or any of the universities you've mentioned simply because we are a poor country at the moment whether we accept it or not. I got convinced during my first exposure to western education. The UK/US university system gets funding from their government as well as well-meaning donors .In the UK the government allocates a fixed number of slots for its citizens on each program a university offers. For each of these slots the government allocates about GBP9,000 while the student who is able to get admitted pays about GBP3,000 . Thus the university gets a fee of approximately GBP12,000 on each student aside from research grants, fees from international students and other source of funding. I looked at the university of glasgow budget for 2014 and its was around the region of GBP500M . More than the budget of an entire state in Nigeria. Our universities are poorly funded and as such cannot compete with universities in the first world.

A revolution will not bring UI and HArvard at par. Nigerians need to focus/tackle the root cause of our problems and rather than allowing emotion take control of our reasoning.

Nigerian universities can be like Havard if the elites/leaders get their focus right. We are not poor but our leaders have failed to harness our resources to reach our full potentials due to their greed. That,s the problem!

History teaches us that Obafemi Awolowo performed wonders (Built a university, cocoa house,gave free education to all & sundry etc)just from the proceed of cocoa production and processing. Nigerians should be living in El Dorado by now if our leaders are not greedy and myopic

History teaches us that there has been no real societal change without element of revolution & violence. You will wonder how UI VC that attended the convocation of his son in US will come back a week after and shut down a citadel of learning. I can bet that he will not shut down that school if his son and children of Atiku, Buhari, Babangida, etc are students of U.I.

Funding of university is a function and ability of our leaders to put our resources to full use. Until the masses unite and stand up to fight every injustice from the elites with force and violence, we will continue to suffer in silence and at the same time create hydra headed problems for future generations to come.

TD4real:
Dear nairalanders, plz i need advice from experienced minds. I am 28 years old and have been workin in a Bank for three years ( i am fairly confortable ). But i have been under pressure by my dad to advance my studies abroad.

The issue here is that it feels i will be starting life all over again, after the MSC then what ? Come back ? Job search again?? I also have a girl friend i have been committed to and we both have been planning to settle down next yr.

I am so confused and i cant plan my future any longer. Some people have adviced that living abroad is always better than nigeria while others have said , if you are ok here why move.

Plz career experts and experinced ones should plz advice me putting into consideration my relationship commitments too.

Pls go for that Msc if you like Academics, make a distinction and schools will pick you up for a PHD . don't be afraid

The banking industry is a mess, promotion is tight and gone are those days when they promote sharply. U will be in a worst situation when they sack you, u will become unemployed and your girlfriend will leave you for another rich banker......sharply leave this naija....

abnot:
You sound so bitter . Studying in the UK or anywhere else is not a crime and don't make the assumption that everyone with a child studying in the west is/was a looter . Celebrate good things and work towards getting your own / progressing in life. No need ranting at the man.

We still have a long way to go in Nigeria if we still have folks reasoning this way.

There is no big deal in studying in the UK if our leaders create an environment for our universities to rank at par with these foreign universities in terms of quality. If OAU, Unilag and UI ranking is same as Havard and Cambridge in terms of quality and ranking, no one will give a damn about someone going to UK to study.

We need a revolution, that is the only way forward but I dont think this generation is ready for this!

“Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable."

hopefulLandlord:
and what would watching almost/all your friends die do to you?

you think playing with grandkids suddenly replaces a good chat with bestfriends?

We all have different destiny and pathway

Anna Mary Robertson Moses, better known as Grandma Moses, began her prolific painting career at 78. In 2006, one of her paintings sold for $1.2 million.

afroniger:
What is the point of a long life where you get to witness the death of your own offsprings and spend the remainder of your days waiting to die since you lack the strength and vigour to achieve much else? For me, I'm ready exit this world after I clock 70 or 80 years of age. You can stick a fork in me because by then I am as good as done.

It is a function of your mentality.

Moses was 120 years old when he died, yet his eyesight was clear, and he was as strong as ever. Deut 34:7

All you need is Gods grace and focus on the vision God sent you to do on earth.

Some folks destiny starts at 60...while some ends at 60.

netzro:
Good afternoon. please I have filled and submitted the e-dividend forms early this month, on the 6th to my bank, GTBank and was told that's all I have to do, I am yet to receive any email or alert as regards the dividend.

Write the Registrar via their customer care mail to confirm if they have already processed your E- Dividend Mandate on your account.
If positive, e-mail them to credit all your outstanding dividend to your account.
It takes them like 5 business day, just make sure you follow up.

jamace:
Some of the brokers are playing pranks. They don't want to pay dividends to customers. I have filled and submitted many edividend forms, yet no payment. They keep on forwarding edividend forms to me to complete. The annoying and sad aspect is that ALL my dead bone stocks have been placed on NBBS but my living stocks, filled on the same edividend forms, have not been approved on NBBS.

Annoyingly too, these brokers will never fail to send seasons greetings (xmas greetings, Easter greetings, Democracy day greetings, Sallah greetings......etc) telling you that they cherish their customers.

Na wa for corruption in Naija o.

Pls mail the registrar and advise them to credit your account once you have e mandate on your acct. First Registrar/Data max just credit my account with all outstanding dividend.

unitedsurv:
Nobody should blame God here o coz
1. God says my ways are not your ways just as far the heavens is to the earth so my ways are totally different from yours

2. the foolishnes of yours is much more wiser than the wisest..how about his wisdom?

3. only God knows those that serve him in truth

4. who are we humans to question God's way

5. if this is not convincing enough I advise go serve the devil and see how life is there

Sometimes when I read some portion of the Bible, I am just lost for words..

The LORD says. ‘Yet I have loved Jacob, but Esau I have hated, and I have turned his mountains into a wasteland and left his inheritance to the desert jackals.

Its simply Gods choice of who he hate and who he loved.

@Samcoco

This is the bitter truth,

- No prophet will solve your problem, prophets can only guide you and reveal specific instruction from God.
- Only God can deal with this type of stronghold.
- You need to develop yourself spiritually, move to a Bible Believing Church and be committed.
- Take fasting and prayers seriously and continue to seek the face of God.....
- You also need to be patient, Gods timetable is different from your timetable.....
- Just keep looking to God, you will come back with a testimony.......

God always take his time to prepare us for his works; It took 27 years for Abram, 22 years for Joseph, 13 years for David to become king, 7 more years before he was king over the whole nation, and 14 years for Paul.

Pls be patient and continue to seek his face, you have a great destiny to fulfill.
