Absolutely! Tomorrow NSE is poised to defy @obiero's unjustified tantrums as he loses credibility again in Wazuan republic aka forum. A rocket rally is widely anticipated as the market opens early morning as presidential rerun anxiety simmers...

Nairobi bourse is expected to register nearly 200 points north, from its previous close 3602.56 on Tuesday, in a single day as vote count for controversial presidential repeat gets underway.

Total income grew by 10%.
Total expenditure increased by 11%.
Transmission and distribution costs increased by 17%.The company blames high cost of doing business for this.With the digital meters in place,i thought it should help in reduction of some costs.This 17% increase is very high.

Horrible results but I am happy we have a dividend


Watesh, glad to see I'm not the only one that's gravitating towards high yielding dividend stocks in this market. People don't realize you can actually live on dividends alone as passive income while still making capital gains. In the US I've seen portfolios that earn upwards of $40K a year as dividends alone from high yielding stocks from as low as $450K investment. In Kenya it's a little tricky since the companies only do two payments (interim and final) while in the US it's every quarter. Regardless, you can still make money via dividends in Kenya but you'd have to invest tens of millions in order to earn decent dividends that can sustain at least 70% of your annual expenses. Since you're into this, check out these four additions to your portfolio :)

Williamson 10.03%
Bamburi 7.84%
StanChart 6.61%
EA Cables 6.99%

I didn't include BAT since I don't support their line of business. People are trying to live and yet they're killing more people. smh

One of my greatest regrets is not realizing power of dividend investing early in my investing career. If I had followed this strategy I guess I could be quite ahead in the game. My main focus was capital gains which was my earliest success points back then. With time however, I have realized the power of dividend investing strategy especially when combined with dividend re-investing. One of the cons is however that it needs time of at least 10 years for the benefits to be felt. Picking high yield stocks remains key to the success of this strategy as you have put it. There arr however other factors to consider such as payout ratios (should not be too high as to drain the business of future growth). One should also consider the dividend growth rate over a period of about 10 years to determine if the trend is favourable or not.

@gatheuzi and @vvs need a separate thread on this discussion, considering their age

smile It took me several years to undertand this. When I was young I would dismiss the strategy as a boring way of getting peanuts in returns. This is until I came across the term "freezing the yield".
Time is money, so money is time. Money saved is time gained in reverse! Money stores your life’s energy. You expend your energy, get paid money, and store that money for a future purchase made in a currency.

This company did a rights issue in 2010 at a price of sh.19.
7 years later the share price is at 10.
Wasted investment for those who particpated in the rights issue

Buy...as they wait for 19.50 to wash away their loss you will have doubled your investment,some analysts gave it a solid buy two weeks ago
