---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Info" <info(a)circuitspackets.co.ke> To: billkagai(a)gmail.com Date: Fri, 23 Jun 2006 01:03:46 +0300 Subject: www.stock-detective.co.ke The death knell to shareholders of Uchumi Supermarkets could have been avoided if the investors had accurate information and reliable projections of the company's performance in real time. Speculation is already rife that Unga Group investors ought worry though no information is available to the shareholders from the relevant stakeholders. The Hosted Services Unit at Circuits&Packets Comunications Ltd has developed a web-based portal www.stock-detective.co.ke combined with a swahili version www.KacheroWaHisa.co.ke which will provide you with data, news and analytics in the stock market. Updated and archived financial and market data, pricing, trading, news and communications tools will now be available in a single, integrated solution to corporations, business professionals and individual shareholders in Kenya. The Stock-Detective also integrates real-time and historical information on all the 49 listed companies, bonds, equities, commodities, currencies and funds. The unique feature of the Stock-Detective is that it contains no frames to ease accessibility and deliberately does not feature images, file attachments or compressed documents for download so that once data is available it can integrate seamlessly with your computer, cell-phones or hand-held devices either through the internet or via short messaging service (sms). The beta version of the solution is now available for tests, editing and bug fixing at www.stock-detective.co.ke As a potential user of our services, we welcome you to have a glance. Your comments and suggestions will be held in high esteem. Stock-Detective Team Circuits & Packets Communications Ltd Hosted Services Unit Suite B2, Tetu Apartments, State House Avenue P. O.
