...for sure, Mumias Sugar is the stock to watch in 2010...a 60 cents increase in one day is no small matter. I can't wait for it to get to 14 bob, the price I bought at...

How about for those who bought at Kshs 60? When can we expect a reversal of losses?

@MV-ufanisi,
You got a bonus of 2 for every one held which would bring down your buying price to 20 bob or lower.....If you did not stop buying then,your average price should be far much lower by now......Even then,for every gainer,there is a loser....you can't help.
Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

Mumias is going to get sweeter it has been undervalued for long.But in the past I have found it very difficult to buy the number of shares I want especially when the price was at Ksh3.50 even with enough supply available.Is this common with this counter or is a problem with my broker?Anybody?

My average buy price is 9.75; I plan to start taking profits at 11.20. That day appears to be coming very soon.

Profits taken here and from SCOM are going to CFC. My average buy there is (don't laugh!) in the high 70s! Started buying after merger with Stanbic was announced at 115 in Dec 07. The stock closed at 43.50 today, so you can understand my position....

This Mumias simply confirms my belief that markets are more irrational than rational. What has changed over the last few weeks to make the share worth almost 40% more than it was? I recall I asked the same question when Safaricom fell to 3 bob, but never got an answer.

I have a suspicion that many 'pundits' observe a trend and then try to retrofit an interpretation after the fact. Wisdom is life read in reverse. I am not complaining though; I own over 20,000 of the damn things.

The Rally appears to be on most of the stocks although at varying magnitudes...so one cant attribute it to Mumias only

I see us having a counter rally every three weeks or so.Now its Safcom and Mumias. Time for NIC bank rally isnt too far away

The 60/- was BEFORE the 2:1 bonus so it means that you have 3 shares for 60 = 20/share...

Sell when rising not waiting for highest price

Everytime i want to sell this share, it goes up... so i hold on... No complaints.... not when i collected the lilies at below 4 when not many were tempted to touch...

@Chali
Your broker is not doing good to you... i had ordered 30k and got them in two buys 18&12..... but that was back then...

@Wendz;

Why not retire the stock? If you entered at 4bob and it is now above 9, sell half your holding and get your money back....the you won't won't be getting excited each time it jumps by 50cts..... or shocked when it drops by 30cts!

@kizee;

The whole market is on the up and up. At the moment, only two stocks are down [XPRSS & SGL]; the rest are mainly up or flat.

This is the time to start taking your profits...who knows what tomorrow will bring?

Wait for the Half Year results to come out on the end of January or early February before getting out. The expectations are more than 200% profit growth. U know what that could do to the share price.

Mumias 1H 2009-10 results should be better than 1H 2008-9. How much better but as @mv_ufanasi says... it could be much better!

Coz of price limits I doubt it can go to 10/- today but we still have Wed, Thu & Friday to go...
