Dividend Investing. The NSE theme for 2012.

Growth companies will experience a higher rate of revenue slowdown than bluechips as high inflation stubbornly refuses to go away. So higher dividend payouts is the strategy firms will use to try and rope in investors from fleeing (selling/dumping) their stocks. Any firm that cuts their dividend pay or skips it this year, will see investors selling its stock mercilessly.

High dividend payouts in a bear market usually reinforce the bear! So expect the NSE to continue sagging (increases the dividend yield metric) or at best trade sideways for the year.

If CBK can force down the tbill rates below 13%, stocks will head higher than trade sidesways since it will be a signal CBR will be lowered despite high inflation!

Mimi bado niko kwa tbills and fancing tea leaves as in liking agri firms...

All the best smile

@hisah we closed the index yesterday at 3,199.67.. The resistance level of 3200 will be broken today..

The bears are losing their argument now...

Not so fast. The volume spread still indicates distribution. If 3300 is broken with conviction then next is 3500. Huge buy volumes needed to push to those levels.
My biggest skeptism is being fanned by global oil with KE on high inflation rates.

@Hisah. You had once said that, investors buying stocks for dividends is unique to the NSE. I found this interesting as i thought inverstors' value for dividends was universal.

They are spoiling us aren't they? the dividend yeilds are so sweet! Lets see what the companies yet to report have to offer. I agree on the mercilessly

Truth be told, since winter set in, i've been looking out for firms with good dividends that have future capital appreciation prospects, and fetching them at a nice low price where the yield is also high.
The investor's chief problem - and even his worst enemy - is likely to be himself

A defensive way of investing all the time with moderate gains in all market conditions.

If you lose the capital gain you will always be compenssated with good dividends.

To achieve this your stock portfolio should consists of high dividend yield highly capitalized stocks.

Stocks that give good interim and final dividends makes it even more interesting.

@hisah have you asked yourself why T.A's/chartists always underperform fundamentalists¿¿

You are busy waiting for 3,500 on the NSE 20 to be broken while I took the plunge at 3,100..

Ultra low P/E's and Ultra high dividend yields have always been the signal to buy equities..

From the looks of your posts it looks like you tend to get in at the top of the cycle..

If only this were true esp about buying the tops smile You assume that I only look at charts (cartoons as so called of late) and don't bother with fundamentals...

Everyone has there own investing plan. I am not a buy and hold investor. I monitor the trend of the index - this is important to my plan. If the index is bearish, I short the index plus bearish stocks (NSE doesn't permit this), if bullish, I buy - the index plus the bullish stocks. Above 3500 and if huge volumes permit NSE reaches those levels will get me reviewing my NSE outlook. Yes, @guru you may be 50% up in a particular stock by then smile

I'll say it again, when oil goes parabolic everything comes down crashing (fundamentals will tell you expensive oil esp an oil price shock as it is about to happen soon is bad for importing economies - inflation, slowdown [GDP, profits], labour unrests etc). I will not participate in the current madness, which defies the global GDP slowdown reality.

Hope this settles the cartoons and the fundamental debates.

Once again keep watching the oil price parabolic and let's see how firms continue to post staggering profits and global economy rallies with a euroland deep in debt Think

Kila nyani na mkia wake... smile

Just as a remainder. All the best.

Kudos!!

Some peeps determine the cycles while others react to the cycles. The former read the facts and move, while the latter wait to see whereto the movement leads before they can decide.

As investors, we plant___ .

a) before the rains

b) after waiting for the weather forecast; if it forecasts adequate rainfall

c) after waiting to see if actual rains are adequate to sustain crops

d) all of the above
