Hey Guys,

I'm a relatively new member to the wazua family.

I was pursuing studies abroad but on my return my dad transferred some of his shares to me dropped me some capital and told me to enjoy the game.

I'm new to this but I believe some of you are kind enough to advice on do's and don't's.

My Current Portfolio

Barclays - 25000
Williamson - 700
Kapchorua -300
Scan Group - 500
BAT -100
BritAm 1000
EABL -400
Carbacid - 1000
CIC - 1000
KenyaRe -1000
KPLC -700

Capital - 50K

What next..?

Keep the highlighted shares.

You will need to get an exit point to sell Barclays.

The rest I will not comment either way. I'm sure there are some wazuans who will have something to say especially about Carbacid which I have never followed but I know people who are excited about it.

I will not give you detailed explanations of each of these shares because of time and space but you can start by searching each of them on this forum to see past and on going discussions on them.
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

And I forgot. Welcome to WazuaLand.

And don't let your Dad down.

With time you will know who to listen to and whose advice to avoid. Kuna watu wa buy buy buy, sell, sell, sell bila sababu and people who will give very valuable advice/information. Stuff you can never learn in any class.

Utawajua pole pole.

Asante Sana Maich. I sincerely appreciate all the you mentioned. Just a random question. Apologies for my ignorance. My dad holds a decent number of shares in Barclays. They earn him a fair amount of dividends and from what I see is that it is the lowest valued share in the Banking Sector. I understand the exit point you make because of slow or no growth but would it not be a safe bet for long term earnings? (maybe just dividend and a little bit of share growth)

I believe I will have to be careful on the advice i get..Well this weekend I shall take some time and browse through some discussions maybe that'll help me pick out some valuable information on shares and wazuans ;)

Welcome to Wazua, I must say you have a very generous dad some of us had to scratch the ground to get to where we are today. My advise would be, talk to your dad and try to find out why he bought the shares in the first place. Listen to his reasoning then weigh it out with what you get in this republic. Join the Fantasey Market here on Wazua and although its not perfect, it will be a good guide book.

Good luck

Welcome to WAzua.
You imply that Barclays is the cheapest share (your use of the term undervalued is misplaced) in the banking sector. I can tell you for free that I saw BBK trading at 625/= bob per share less than 10yrs ago. So as you do your research, find out how and why it "fell" from 625/= to its current level.
When it comes to shares, looks can be deceiving. You need to know abit of history.

@ayush.. welcome to wazua. Your dad is indeed great. @mwenza the fall on Barclays from Kes625 was due to split so a better analysis would be on say PE performance.
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.
