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 was ahead of all the benchmark indices including the Nairobi All Share Index (NASI) and Zamara Index.
Genghis Trading Ideas for the week…
Equities
BUY KCB Group Plc at KES 34 levels (TP: KES 62.52; +78% upside)
Attractive trading multiples; P/B 0.88x, dividend yield of 10.0% backed by strong fundamentals (above average Return on Equity - ROE of c.20%).
Fixed Income
BUY FXD1/2019/5 at 11.10% - 11.15% levels
High liquidity environment and in addition to the re-opening of bonds that domicile in the short-to-medium part of the curve.
Global Markets
SELL EURUSD (Take Profit target of 1.0782)
We think the shared currency will remain weak on the backdrop of a weaker global growth coupled with Euro-Zone policy constraints.
Derivatives
We are timing to enter a SHORT position on SAFARICOM September 2020 future contract with a Take Profit at 21.5 levels (technical analysis has a strong support at the 2019 low) and Stop Loss at 32.0 levels.
