Kengen has an upside potential of 13.5% from 9.25/- targetting 10.50/- before book closure on Dec 5th. So upside of 13.5% plus div yield of 6.5% @9.25/- gives a cool return of 20%.


Is the upside potential the same if u sell ex div??
To get the dividend you must sell ex div whereas to get the upside gains you must sell cum div!

in the short term you can't have both!!

True, very true. Actually, most, if not all, stocks at the NSE this year have rallied 1 week ex div.

As at August 2012 KenGen has had a strong start to the year while the same can't be said of Kenya Power.

Hio compe haitoshi, all that power will be consumed.. There is some other thread that I mentioned that Kengen is a better bet than KPLC some dude/tte called Kausha bashed me badly, I hope he is slowly getting to realize that he was very blind.




How much is Kengen currently producing and what are its plans going forward?


Lets just say its selling everything to KPLC which is still not enough.


Lets just say KPLC will only buy if they have somewhere to sell

Do u believe u have enough power? Today South C has been without power from 8. KPLC will always need power as long as they loose some to those who "steal".
