Word of advice. I've seen the move in the agric-stocks prices before especially just before they announce their results or just before they close their books for dividend.
Word to those who can read charts, utasomeka. The best time to buy into the stocks is around September/october time.

@GG,didnt i tell you to hold onto sasini when you were to sell @8.20 and cum dividend.? I am buying more since WTK is proving elusive.This tea game is proving very enticing.

@cnn, I got back in at 7.8 and the cap gain so far is 28%smile . I have no exit price at the moment as I really don't know what is driving them up.

Wa! Kweli stock market is unpredictable sana. Just when everyone had written of the Agriculturals, they make a massive comeback. The risk in buying now is chasing after a HOT counter, it's easy to get burnt. But thank God for the rains, we should see a better economy before the politicians mess it up for us.

I learnt to tame my greed...so got off 30% of my sasini holding today @10.20 (Buying price @ 4.8- 6.0 in feb 2009) If Sasini hits 14.0 I offload the rest period!
Less is more....for Architects only!!

@Kishindo you're a patient guy - props for buying from Feb 09 and holding till now. Some people are just not that patient. Enjoy the fruits of your calm nerves. That is almost 100% gain. An investor that can wait will likely be rewarded.

Tea prices remain strong even with additional production.
Why?

1) India has seen increase in demand with higher & more propsperous population. 1bn people with 500mn over 18yrs. An increase of just 1 cup per week is HUGE for the market. China has started drinking black tea (small quantities) but the market can grow rapidly.

2) India & Sri Lanka had seen poor rains in 2009 so there is a 'deficit' of tea stocks but this can change with rains.

3) Kenya tea production expected to increase with sporadic but heavy rains from Jan-May 2010. This benefits Kenyan farmers before India & Sri Lanka production comes into the market.

4) Green tea is becoming popular in Western countries as a substitute for sodas. This is great for Kenya as some tea is produced as 'Green Tea'. Kenyan farmers need to produce more green tea.

There u go coz Kakuzi has paid off its loans & is almost cash positive. Cash flow from Ops shows huge turnaround.

The 6 months (Jul-Dec 2009) is likely to have been even better cash positive for Kakuzi.

Dont say I did not tell you...

I have been touting Williamson (& sister Kapchorua indirectly) for ages. I am out of cash or I would have buy more...

Kapchorua had 1/2 year EPS of 24.17 (Full Year 2008-9 was 17.87). Tea prices are still 50% higher than same time last year. KShs has weakened.

Rare shares on offer - Limuru Tea...

I know tea prices are high but I love the Limuru area... Really nice weather... I wonder what the land they have is worth...

Limuru is grossly overvalued and illiquid...no cashflow in this business and will only benefit shareholders who got in b4 the bonus. All other agriculturals look viable apart from Rea Vipingo.
