NAIROBI: Kenya’s shilling was unchanged on Friday, with little importer demand for dollars in the market, but was expected to gain ground in the next few days, helped by inflows from horticultural produce exporters, traders said.

Kenya’s shilling steady, expected to firm due to tea exporter inflows

At 0728 GMT, commercial banks quoted the shilling at 132.00/133.00 per dollar, the same as Thursday’s closing rate.

My salary difference between last month and this month will be a clean --ksh16000. This should reflect to the drop of price of commodities. Otherwise, no much benefit to the common mwananchi.

It will bounce at 120 at the resistance level and if it successfully break it it will meet another resistance at 100 and 80

@mutugi mate, thankyou finally 1 who understand. With all due respect a common mwananchi is the one who is suffering when fuel goes up due to forex adjustments.
