3) Valuation very decent as PE = 10
4) Very little assets lost

Thank you for your comment. Valuations are very attractive due to current earnings, future earnings and slow down in the market now.

It is time to go behind attractive stocks in the market. I believe state government institutional investors should become active after election once we see permanent cabinet due to attractive value. Both governments are business friendly.

Specialists’ fund mangers prefer less mature emerging markets (frontier markets) such as Nigeria, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.

Frontier markets with a positive story can reward the specialist

Surprisingly frontier markets have done well on Friday despite sell off in other stock markets and commodity markets. Their stock markets are having correction before their next jump.

Market winners on Friday were:

Sri-Lanka
Nigeria
Slovakia
Tanzania
Kazakhstan
Ghana
Cyprus
Jordan
Tunisia
Hungary
Morocco
Costa Rica

They were either steady or went up. Among developed markets NZ market was steady.

It is time to become bullish on selected frontier markets less exposure to currency fluctuation and having higher growth rate. As most of these frontier markets import oil and other raw materials, they should benefit from cheaper oil and other raw materials and it will help them to control balance of payment as well.
