dunkang wrote:Quote:Faster data is Safaricom's reply to Airtel Mobile service provider Safaricom will double its broadband capacity next week opening a new battlefront in the data market. The move comes a month after its main rival Airtel launched a 3G network. "The network will run at 42mega bits per second (mbps) from the current 21mbs and it will be the fastest network in the whole of East and Central Africa," Safaricom CEO Bob Collymore said during the Connected Kenya Summit 2012 in Mombasa. The firm has been under pressure to diversify its revenue streams away from voice following last year's price wars. But its quest to control the data market has in the recent past witnessed increasing competition especially from Telkom Orange and Airtel. Airtel rolled out its 3G network in February putting it at par with Safaricom. But the latter's move to double its capacity is seen as creating a niche in the market. WHERE ARE YOU NOW HATERS! IF I WERE AN AccessKenya Shareholders, i would be more concerned! Next week he said? Lately making calls thru' VoIP has been nightmarish, i hope he will be true to the word.

Then a mini-rally will follow for 2 weeks, then slow down at 3.75/-! 3.30 - 3.40 is a strong barrier for now. If this gives in, then 3.50 - 3.60 can pop up. Financial results for Vodafone group are usually 3rd week of May so Mpesa bank can only announce then and after the group has announced.$15/barrel oil...

Last year was on 18th May 2011, remember? Eh, this elephant wants to break 3.40. In process it might pull the index above 3500. That will be quite something.

As its for sending money across borders, mpesa is largely a kenyan affair so unless its also tailored to be convinient like mpesa and actually outdo mpesa then there wont be much effect. I also doubt their ability to innovate beyond mpesa and to win those customers on their side, given the massive headstart and successs that mpesa has acquired. more than 25% of diaspora remittances come through mpes. Kenyans abroad use it to deposit monies loved ones or bank accounts. Its been since 09 a cousin who invests heavily used moneygram or western union, babawatoto.com, poapay et al have a big chunk of this.. Foresight..

From the going on and the Quarterly report by CCK, Dividend cannot be more than 0.15/-. This stock can only reach 4/- with dividend more than 0.25/- which is practically impossible for now. Am waiting for 3.85/- i exist with 18% profit. For me, anything above 12% return (net of commission) in less than a year is more than enough.

Safaricom rivals to introduce Sh4 uniform rate Safaricom’s rivals are seeking to introduce a uniform minimum calling rate of Sh4 within their networks to cut losses caused by the price war that has gripped the mobile telephony market. The Communication Commission of Kenya (CCK) said the three operators — Telkom Kenya, Airtel and Essar — have approached it with the intention of introducing the floor rate and that they are currently working on a memorandum of understanding. Besides increasing their revenues, the move will limit the price war among the three operators—who have seen their on net tariff drop to Sh2 per minute from Sh6 in 2010. Orange currently charges Sh2 for calls within its network and Sh4 to its rivals. Both Airtel and Yu are charging Sh3 within and out of their network. Safaricom charges Sh4 within its network and Sh5 to other networks—and it revised its charges by about 25 per cent in October after reporting a drop in profits for the six months to September. Safaricom maintains that a “realistic” termination rate should be the basis under which retail tariffs are set. Uganda charges a termination rate of the equivalent of Sh4.50 per minute while Tanzania rates are at Sh5.75. http://www.businessdaily...46/-/in6iwo/-/index.html Receive with simplicity everything that happens to you.” ― Rashi

We now have four undersea cables terminated.Internet prices will go down and down.Thus ISPs need to increase their sales volumes by having more clients.This needs $$ on infrastructure.Voice service providers have the $$ for the data infrastructure,the small ISPs (AK etc)will wrap up eventually as they cant compete with the big guys on the infra .Their fiber network is no longer useful to this big guys (airtel rides on AK fiber network in Nai,eventually they will have their own network)

Outsourcing on operations.Airtel rides on KDN but has some services running on the AK metro fiber network (which is quite idle) in Nai. I have seen them (Airtel) doing their own fiber infrastructure in other african countries and diversifying to data. But majority technical TELECOMS INFRASTRUCTURE operations(not decisions) are still outsourced to NSN

Cash deposits held by mobile phone money transfer providers have grown to more than Sh176 billion, equivalent to a tenth of the Sh1.5 trillion held by commercial banks http://www.businessdaily...8/-/sc0ska/-/index.html
READ SAFCOM MPESA HOLDS 1/10 OF ALL COMMERCIAL BANKS TOTAL DEPOSITS. However voice traffic has dropped by 10.4% in 3 months but the 25% increase in airtime prices offset a 47.4% drop in profits.
