Genghis Cross-Asset Weekly Strategy - 28th December 2020

In this week's edition of the Weekly Cross-Asset Strategy Report, we give a recap of the equities, fixed income, currencies and derivatives markets' performance over the past week and our trading ideas for the coming week.

Our Momentum, Income and Value equities portfolios continue to outperform the benchmark NSE 20 index. Performance of the Momentum and Income portfolios is ahead of all the benchmark indices including the Nairobi All Share Index (NASI) and Zamara Index.

Genghis Trading Ideas for the week…
Equities
ACCUMULATE KENGEN on recent price weakness (LONG-TERM)
Market price has weakened closer to 52-week low (on concerns of cash flow constraints due to KPLC) despite recent highlighted 2020 financial results (unaudited) indicating record-level net profit of KES 10.5Bn (partly due to KES 1.9Bn tax credit). Normalized, this is growth of 7.5% - decent for a year most blue chips are issuing profit warnings.

Fixed Income
BUY IFB1/2020/11 at current levels
We expect interest on the infrastructure bond segment to spillover to the week as the year closes to an end. We see attractive entry levels on the IFB1/2020/11 and the paper will also be buoyed by its relative liquidity in the market.
