For trading,Kengen is good.It always swings and now it is really oversold.Rebound in the offing.Just like Safcom,it doesnt disappoint traders


With a forthcoming 1:1 rights issue within the next 3-6 months, it will be interesting to see if the government will take up its rights. If it doesn't, then its 70% shareholding should reduce to 35% and a reorganisation of the mainly politically appointed board of directors should follow. Kengen needs a serious anchor shareholder with expertise In energy sector (equivalent of Vodafone in Safaricom). Before the rights are done and dusted, the share should be available at the Ksh 10 price levels as the market waits to see the governments move as concerns the rights (hopefully it will sell its rights to an anchor shareholder) in addition to the rights pricing.

Happy hunting.


I believe so too about GOK and
KENGEN tho the Gov is keen on the sector so they will make sure they are the major shareholder tho diluted. I think there is a reason why GE is here...am watching


I suspect GE wants in. The investments projected do need the stewardship of such a player. However, i doubt GE would invest without Board control.

Happy hunting.


@Stockmaster,

Many thanks for your great analysis and this time in coming for along haul. Even though everyone seems to agree with you except on TPS, I do agree that TPS will deliver good results over the said period. Regional diversification is key and it is likely that tourism growth will be quite good in the region. Despite the terrorists events in Kenya, peace in Somalia will ultimately yield dividends. Already, Tanzania has overtaken Kenya in terms of tourist numbers. The potential in the region is huge.

Within the 3 year time horizon, me thinks, industrial stocks will play a key role. On this front, i pick KPLC and Kengen to lead the front. The government focus in increasing electricity generation by almost 400% within four years should surely spur growth in these sectors. Many players will be involved including GE as mentioned, but also traditional players who form the chain of geothermal developments.

On the banking sector, in auditioned to the aforementioned banks by Stockmaster, I front NBK to perform well. If government decides to divest, especially after the restructuring, NBK should yield fantastic capital appreciation. The other sleeping giant is COOP.

The LAPSSET project is now a reality and together with associated infrastructure should drive the construction industry. Beneficiaries should be cement companies mainly. If BOC repositions itself well, it's should be a major player in the railway construction industry by supplying oxygen for welding works.

Happy New Year and great investment results to Wazuans.

Too many contracts up for grabs for GoK to let their shareholding fall below 50% + 1


My thoughts exactly. Too much money at play for this company to remain a parastatal. That board needs a moderating influence of a strong corporate entity like GE.

Happy Hunting.

I doubt GOK will provide the necessary 21Billion... I also suspect a big player might be coming in!

Unlike power distribution GOK has no problem liberalizing power production!

That is one of the reasons I prefer Kengen to KPL!

If GE and Gov invest together, is the best we can expect like KQ=Gov+klm? lets hope not.

I dont think the same will happen because the airline industry is just a bad investment anywhere in the world!

True...the problem is the business not the partnership. Airline industry is struggling but energy is big business especially in a developing economy.

who understands the behaviour of Kenya Re price

Based on the book value the price is very undervalued but it seems its not going up

Anyone with updates on their performance for 2013?

The market is jittery about 2013 results because of Westgate, JKIA, South Sudan etc..

Its still the perfect long term play!

It looks very good on previous year financial data, but the JKIA fire and West Gate Terrorism Compensations MAY make it cheaper during this year's FY reporting. So am staying out for now.

In the spirit of disclosure!!
My 2013 closing Portfolio:
Coop: 29%
EQTy: 12%
NIC: 22%
SAFC: 21%
KK: 16%
A bag of mixed results. A return of 20.97%

For 2014:
Safc: Hold Long Term
Coop: Hold Long Term
KK: Hold not sure for how long
NIC& EQTY: Sell after results
Kengen: Buy before and accumulate after rights issue, with any new cash for long long term.

I do not get how wazua ignore Carbacid, kenokobil, Equity and Williamson tea. These counters will pull a surprise to many in 2014 by H1.
