Wisdom to detect when share prices hit rock bottom.
When interest on bonds keep going up, you know the bear run is on high street. When interest on bonds start leveling, the bear has met the bull and they have hit rock bottom. When the interest rates on bonds start coming down, the bull has overpowered the bear and you better be riding the bull.

Whoever prepared the Report and sent it to NSE seems not to have realized the years in each column are the same. So, my uninformed guess on what was for where.

That fella needs to be fired and sent to look after livestock.

Good top line growth from Uchumi, expansion is starting to impact revenue although EPS is a paltry Sh0.278, I will post my analysis on my blog.

Solid performance.
I think its time Uchumi resurrected the expansion strategy. The goodwill is there for them to grow its revenue

“Locally, Uchumi comes out as the most cost efficient retail chain and has the strongest net profit margin at 3.6 per cent compared to Nakumatt at 0.8 per cent, Tuskys at 1.3 per cent and Naivas at 0.8 per cent,” said the investment banker.

'Uchumi has the highest market share, in terms of profitability at 38 percent'. What does that even mean? And can it really be true???

So Naivas with its cheaper prices is performing worst!

"Uchumi shareholders could receive a divided as early as next year as the board of the retail chain moves to discuss sharing the profits with investors after a 10-year freeze."
"It forecasts that the retail chain could pay a dividend of Sh0.50 in 2013 and Sh1 in 2014."

Actually @vvs there is such a rule that the chairman and chief executive shouldn't be the same person, I'm just not sure it relates to banks only.

If you recall KCB had major governance issues when they had executive chairmen - Kaminchia et al and CMA introduced the rule to sort out the mess.

Then I have no idea where the issue is... Why hasn't CMA said anything?

It in the CMA guidelines on corporate governance. Why they are not enforcing is the big question.

Please post the relevant 'guidelines' for me on here. Also, when were the guidelines published?
