Am referring to the long haul journey. 5+years. The counters that you will wish you picked today in the year 2020

1. KENGEN - We all know we need to be electrified if we're to compete with the rest of the world. Electricity is the blood of any economy

2. KPLC - I do not foresee any new entrant in the distribution of electricity any soon.

3. SAFARICOM - We're hooked, we have to call txt email and surf. Who is powering 80% of Kenya? And now they are getting into TV on Friday. Never doubt Safcoms ability to sell.

Like Buffetts said “Time is the friend of the wonderful company, the enemy of the mediocre.”

Trains/very long haul are a no. Getting into discounted counters and exiting when they become fully valued is the way.

Here is my reason. Flashback 5+ years

How long will it take that person calling himself a long termer who refused to sell kengen at 40's to enjoy the fruits of 40 and above?

Those graphs just show the history, they say nothing about the future. The value then and now is different.

I wonder if your argument would have been valid for safcom for the years 2008-2011. If only you'd post the chart. Fundamentals rule. Its hardly 5 years when someone posted a thread on Safcom being in the loss territory
