Kenya Re is one of the few stocks on the NSE trading below NAV. It should catch up to NAV within the next 6 months. Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett

@CDE HESHIMA KWAKO! you have been drumming support for this share at very low levels arguing on the GoK push for the insurer to have a stake at the current mining activities in Kenya! I saw the below article and wasnt surprised why the share his on UP UP move! I saw several huge block trades during the week (2M,1M etc) Public officials were on Monday at pains to explain why the government paid Sh13 billion in insurance premiums to secure part of the money for constructing the standard gauge railway.
Mr Matheka said the underwriting secured $1.63 billion (Sh140.4 billion) from the China Exim Bank in line with the lender’s policies. He denied that a local insurance broker was involved in the transaction.

Cheers @Metasploit. Yes, we'd covered that too, under emergence of Infrastructure Insurance as below. Tuko Fiti. NB:ZEP-Re is an associate investment of Kenya-Re. Covers COMESA region. Let's see. ----Thursday, November 07, 2013--- Cde Monomotapa wrote:OK. This should also provide for a good read on the outlook for re/insurance in Africa.

Extrapolating that Africa wide and we're talking tons of opportunity indeed.

@cde : Do you know % of Zep Re that KenRe owns? And the value of Zep Re? Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett

Kenya Re is rebounding back!Note how shallow the correction was! Thanks,i took advantage of the correction to pick some shares at 19.30 Sad i sold all (had bought about 70,000 shares at 14 bob and sold at 16).Trading hurts sometimes. Now i will hold till 40 in a few months time

NAV is 22.50 and no other Insurance firm is trading at below NAV. Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett
