will you get dividends if you buy after mark down?

How do I know when Mark down will happen?

no dividend after mark down and the qualification date would be announced for dividend payment so after marking down for dividend payment nothing of such again but those bought before the qualification date and did not sell bfore mark down will qualify for dividend payment

That is a known fact.
A way out is for a strong monetary union in Africa and reduced dependence on the dollar/other major currencies
Lets look inward and develop what we have. We should reduce commodity export and increase the export of finished products
It will take time , but it is doable

Boss you are right concerning leaving the country legally but sadly treasury bill rate is not encouraging simply because I am building it to pay for my msc school fees abroad...hopefully if I could raise it I will need your help on something for back up during visa application...

Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by tomtom370: 10:14pm On Feb 18, 2020
Since 1990, the Naira has depreciated against the Dollar by an average of 13.5% per annum.

The Naira traded against the Dollar for N7.90 in 1990. Thirty years after (2020), it’s traded for N360 per Dollar.

Run the calculations and compound the difference.

It’s obvious that foreign currency investments trump whatever investments/profit one is making in Nigeria, in the long term.

Nigeria’s economy has no base, clarity, consistency and strategy.

Not to create any panic, it’s better to diversify one’s portfolio to foreign currency.

tunene66:


I have studied the Naira vs dollar chart and notice a tendency. Once in every few years, the Naira gets devalued, after which it remains very stable for a few years. Also, just near the period after the devaluation, there is ample investment opportunities with great ROI to prevent flight capital. (e.g rate for T-bills were 17-20% immediately after the devaluation in 2014/2015).

Food for thought

Those amount must it be daily or monthly, because I saw Amount/day. Pls clarify me. Thanks
The tenor is stacked against different rates..The tenor/duration determines the rate you get. If u fixing 100k for say a month, u get 6% PER ANNUM. If you fixing for 1 year you get 7% per annum.

The decision to devalue the naira has little to do with rationality....
The major determinant is oil price....if oil price is low CBN will have no option than to devalue the naira

Agreed. Barring a large shock in oil prices, I don't think CBN will willingly devalue the naira. It seems this government is obsessed with defending the naira at great expense of our foreign reserves.

Unfortunately I have an issue with all these you guys are saying, as at 2016/2017 we had oil prices at $25-35 a barrel, naira was devalued in the name of floating foreign exchange...

In my opinion CBN is not being sincere in having different exchange rates for the naira...

I believe if both interbank/blackmarket have a single exchange rate (apparently nothing to defend by CBN), our reserves would not suffer as BDCs and importers would have no reason to look to government for forex, afterall you wont get any special value or rebate per dollar...well the down side is BDC business may end up crumbling...

What if it does not go down to N14 nor appreciate to N22?

The most important thing is to know how to value an investment based on the expected cash flow from such investments, ones you have gotten the expected valuation from such investments the cheaper it becomes will be an answer to your prayers and accumulate more.

Master your emotions. When the market euphoria send such investments beyond their valuations and the cash flow from such investments can't support their current prices you sell and identify other opportunities.
