Yeah! But of course! There is a romour that some people will sell their shares tomorrow and some people will buy. It is also romoured that there might be a price change of between -10% and +10%. Very exciting news...Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

@maichblack i'm not 100% sure but this stock seems to be rallying because of the announcement of the drop in use of thermal power and increased use of hydro power hence resulting into much better margins for the company...

i will definately be watching price action today!!

How comes this news has no effect the KENGEN counter too? I thought KENGEN would have blown the roof away by now.

BBI will solve it :)

kengen is trading at an overheated price right now with a P/E of 18 meaning the market has factored in alot already... it might go higher but then it will just look more expensive IMHO

The 'announcement' was simply about the drop in Fuel Surcharge due to increased hydro generation!

Ati the happy news is that the fuel surcharge will go down by ONLY 26% yet all the dams are full.How are kenyan businesses suppossed to survive with these criminals running the show?
The utimate goal of investing is to buy low sell high;if we re-write this core equation in psychology terms it becomes buy fear sell greed.

@sheep - KenGen generates hydropower not KPLC... they merely distribute it so pass on the savings (or surcharges) from KenGen or IPPs.

fuel costs are pass on costs to the consumer. I don't think reduction of the fuel costs will improve kplc margins, unless the customers increase consumption due to the lower unit cost of elec

KPLC will pass on the savings from lower electricity prices... So not much benefit to KPLC except for the SALE of ADDITIONAL electricity units...
