BSE makes the top 10 markets' list

The recent edition of The Motley Fool quoting reputable Birinyi Associates, a US money management and research firm, puts Botswana at position seven in the top 10 performers in 2006. However, Tim Hanson, writing for the publication, revealed that it was harder to think of the list because most of the countries are a surprise pack since investors are always looking at the first world stock markets. 

For example, US investors are always looking at the Dow Jones that crossed 12,500 in 2006, although it just gained 16 percent in 2006.
