@vvs could this hold true for Kenya really.. A good number of yesteryears heavy weight companies are no longer even operating and those in existence have been rattled by competition, think of Elliotts, KCC, Uchumi, Kimbo, Quencher, Barclays, Stanchart, Unga, KQ..

Unilever used to be listed on NSE back in the day. Why the NSE honchos are unable to attract such quality firms(the real FMCGs...hizi ziko NSE sahii ni bandia) beats me

Mwanyasi: Ignoring the market’s ups and downs entirely and remaining patient for a period lasting more than five years should reward you immensely.


Ignore market ups and downs at your own peril. You profit more if you buy in a low PE, high DY market and sell in the converse.

Applause Exactly chase yields not the prestige of owning dead assets. If a stock is yielding you 1-5% yield you are better investing in a govt bond of 12% or a rental property of 9% yield. That capital gain of waiting 5 years to be rewarded immensely is just the same.

@vvs will hear none of that.

Schumpter.
Elliots was never listed. Neither was KCC.
Kimbo, Quencher are brands.

One can't win every game. One has to look in on their firms re: management quality, industry, etc.

The goal is to pick some wonderful firms. And monitor them.
Barclays & Stanchart has done very well for the original IPO shareholders but BBK sadly lost the plot to the likes of Equity.

KQ - You know what happened.

Unga - It lost the plot in the 2000s and competition has increased though Unga is doing better now.

We do not know what will happen in the next 1 month let alone 70 years. That's why choose firms which have good fundamentals and management. Then keep looking in!
