The first day after results Kk traded over 7.3 m shares with very huge volumes trading at 11.50,this shows the results met and surpassed investors expectations

It is unreal to see kk printing 11.xy. U can think your looking at britam or barclays

i consider the exit commission /re-entry commission, monitoring and waiting for it to come down,not worth it let me just eat the full dividend, pesa ya sukuma sitaki

if you want to one time own a property or something big from the proceeds of the nse,avoid selling stocks which have no bad issues anytime you see a 3bob gain unless you have financial difficulties or you want to invest elsewhere ,i consider this as being too hungry

i don't mean @spikes is very right but let me give an illustration where i could have bought i KK shares in 2014 and monitor/trade and commisions @ 2.2%, keep in mind the pendulum
Buy 10000 shares @8.5 = 85000, Add
commission = 1785, Total = 86785
I could adopt any of these two:
A. Hold the 10000 shares up to now and bag a dividend of 3500/=(10K * 0.35). Hold and hope for a bonus of 1: 10 thus total shares will be 11000.
B. when the price gets to 10.30 i sell all of them
sell 10000 @ 10.30 = 103000, Subtract commission = 2266, cash = 100734
when the pendulum swings into action and price dips to 8'ish i buy again using the above amount; ( selling for a low re entry)
Buy 12300 @ 8 = 98400, Add commissions = 2164.8, Total = 100564.80
Bag a dividend of 4305/= (12.3k* o.35). Hold and hope for a bonus of 1:10 thus total shares will be 13530.
Moving forward who benefits more?
One has to keep in mind that there were all sings of Pendulum in KK which makes one trade in it. Just as @ murchr said on the other side. this may not apply to all stocks at all times.
No one is clever enough to beat the market, no single model is the only successful one in the stocks market but a method that profits the investor in that season is the workable model in that financial period.

Your explaining agrees with me but you insist you don't! Saying YES and NO at the same time. Watermelon mentality: outside green surprisingly inside red!

By The last FY I had KK @ an average of 8.90 including commission. I sold All at 10.30. I re entered and my average is 8.25. I said it here openly the "2 years recovery period plus Simon Makonde theory' but I said I'll re enter @8.2 and below as there were all signs of it getting lower. Right now it may not go that low in near future so trading now is more tricky.

You've done well for yourself, despite taking the risk of selling then waiting for it to go lower. When it reached 10 the second time how come you didn't sell, is the pendulum over or has it changed? This is where it becomes tricky to speculate, now the share is not predictable any more. In my wildest dreams I wouldn't have thought it will go above 11.00. I'm sure we've left behind many speculators from 10.00 going upwards. It's tricky for them now, do I sell? Is it going higher. It's mostly the long termers who will reap the full benefits in the end. I hope ull be one of the them. By the way my buying is over now unless it goes back below 9.00. So no longer the buyer but the holder

It will still go down in this bear the share is currently expensive compared to peers

@VVS your experience with Access is learning lesson to me and everybody else who wants to be watchful on tricky price swings. Sweet corporate news and other positive economic developments can trigger unstoppable impulsive upward swings just leaving you salivating as other investors keep harvesting super profits.
