I aim for a 30% annual gain. So in 3 years = 100%. Ceteris Paribus. Quote this in 3 years (20 Sep 2010) if Wazua & I are around!
KK: 1 Oct 2010 = 10/- but 20/- is a given with regional expansion. Also owns decent real estate in many fast growing African countries.
KQ: 1 Oct 2010 = 47/- & 94/- is a strong possibility as expansion into Africa takes hold. KQ has started linking China, India & Middle East into Africa. These 4 regions are the fastest growing regions...
China's growth is legendary. There will be setbacks but mere bumps in the road.
India has its challenged. Unlike China's state sponsored growth this is bumpier but solid (& robust) private sector growth. Look at Bharti Airtel & YU-Essar both in Kenya & Africa. Tata trucks are a common sight in Zambia & Uganda.
'Middle East' is an investor. Kuwait, Qatar, Abu Dhabi all want to diversify from Europe & USA... and Africa is next door. Dubai to Nairobi is 4 hours.
Africa: Problems, Wars, Coups, etc... BUT the potential is here. Unlike massive China or India, it is fragmented. A pity! Nevertheless, look at amazing Mauritius, Botswana or Rwanda. They have stable governments. Mauritius & Botswana have almost ZERO corruption with strong democracies & weak armies! Rwanda under Kagame is doing very well.
Kenya will see a huge boost when S.Sudan secedes. Just a matter of time. Uganda's oil money will trickle into Kenya as well. Tanzania is a sleeping giant. Well, when they want to work! Congo & Algeria have resources up the wazoo.
KQ serves them all...
N'dola to Nairobi to Dubai
Accra to Nairobi to India
Lagos to Nairobi to China
