Fantastic Storytelling to Multimillion Dollar Rewards

Dear Hollywood,

Hollywood has enjoyed decades of undeniable success. Actors and actresses are household names and the stories told are classics that have penetrated deep into our hearts. Hollywood seems to have lost the act of storytelling. This beauty has been replaced by big budget remakes of old classical movies. Every time you go back to tell a story, you say it differently and change a lot of things. This is getting very annoying! It makes me wonder if Hollywood has lost its creativity.

Well a piece of advice is to stop celebrating criminals and lousy celebrities at every chance you get and start telling biographical stories on true heroes and role models. A biography on Warren Buffet and Bill Gates, John D. Rockefeller just to mention a few could easily fetch over $100m each in revenues. Tell more true stories and less science fiction. It is awesome to stimulate our fantasy but it is more productive to educate our minds.

Brexit: Why the Market Got it Wrong

Dear Speculators, After 40 years of being in the European Union, the United Kingdom will no longer be a member nation of the EU after the exit plans have been finalized. The gloomy market prediction by top notch investors and analysts has now become a reality. The British pound has been "pounded" in the foreign exchange market, falling significantly against virtually every currency on earth. Pound sterling currently sits at a 30 year low against the dollar after shedding a record 11% in just one day. The equity market is a mess all over UK and Europe, banks have suffered the heaviest beating. $2 trillion has been wiped off global equities. At this point it will take a miracle and much more than $345b promised by the Central Bank to save the economy from entering a financial recession by 2017. Several market players were positioned for a stay in accordance with the opinion polls on Brexit even when the polls showed that a vote to remain wasn't significantl

CBN Floats the Naira and the Interbank FX Rate Takes a Dive

Dear Speculators, It is no longer news that CBN has liberalized the interbank foreign exchange market in Nigeria. This new fx policy will allow exchange rate for bank to bank transactions to be determined freely by market forces as against the previous fixed rate of N199. The CBN has also permitted foreign currency deposits in deposit money banks and discontinued the sale of foreign currencies to Bureau de Change in Nigeria. CBN has also promised to intervene periodically and in unpredictable fashion to clear up backlogs of foreign exchange demands whenever the need arises. Since Nigeria has still not devalued her currency, CBN intervention in this market may present an arbitrage opportunity for the primary dealers. In other words, any day could be Christmas for the banks. Obviously, the Central Bank now believes that the amount of dollars and other foreign currencies in circulation can provide much needed liquidity to satisfy the country's fx demands, thereby bring

Ten Surprises of 2018

Dear Speculators, Let's face it, 2017 was a bad year. The only things that went the right way in '17 were crude oil, equities and the decelerating pace of inflation. From fuel scarcity to periodic power outages, rising unemployment to terrorism perpetrated by herdsmen, Nigeria looked more or less worse of the same. As usual, the new year has started with a lot of hope but the long queues at filling stations is enough to beat out the optimism out of most realists. To help in putting the most important things into perspectives so we do not dwell less on minor things rather than channelling all our attention to major possibilities this year, we have put together 10 of the biggest surprises this year you should pay attention to. Ten Surprises of 2018 1. The stock market ASI crosses 65,000 2. Banks post record annual profits for 2017 3. 1-year TBills rates fall below 13% 4. Inflation falls below 12.5% 5.
