I think its unwise to invest in gava firms long term. the shares look like the have value but gava always comes to spoil the party. unless there's a chance of gava reducing its stake to a non controlling level you are better off putting your cash elsewhere.

The reason the shares are undervalued is because of gava not putting shareholder wishes as a priority.

Kengen. it's several years since IPO, it's trading at below IPO price. has never split. if u went in long term you would be negative all these years later

kplc. rights at 19.50 3 yrs ago. now trading at 14.80. do I need to say more.

kq. and mumias and eapc same story.

take home: don't invest in gava long term. make you money get out and wait for the next depression.

the advantage is that we know there's a time they'll be dirt cheap and there's a time they'll rally. don't be left dancing when the music stops

The only success has been Kenya Re which is way above it's listing price and the government still holds majority shareholding.

one thing that irks me about gava firms is handling of rights issues. there's always a push and pull, rumours. announced like 2 yrs before causing share to suffer in open market. look at uchumi, ken gen. nbk. a real major shareholder would never let his shares lose value like this.

also how gava company react to losses. would a gava run firm for example react the way Kenol Kobil reacted to its major 6.2b loss. a major aggressive restructure. and overhaul of management. an almost immediate move.
A gava firm would be slower to react, leading to a situation like Uchumi, kplc and KCB a few years ago.

speculatively yes you will make a lot of profit if u play it right.

long term... it's just a matter of time before they crash the party.
The investor's chief problem - and even his worst enemy - is likely to be himself

Some shares are not cheap but are worth investing in... ARM, NMG, EABL, KCB, Equity, Safaricom.

They are unlocking value by increasing their efficiency plus making money in the regional markets. Short term/ medium term and long term are all bright.

Kenya Re is a gem in my opinion and there is still great value in it at current prices

NMG

CENTUM
SAFCOM
EABL
ARM

STANCHART
