MaichBlack, yes you can buy directly from SIC but the ones acquired through that route start accruing dividends from the month after purchase. Those bought from other members come with whatever dividends they'll have already accrued. SIC sells at 350 KES a share, other members cannot sell above 350 or below 325 KES/share. Their buying/selling system is opaque. One is at the mercy of the guys matching the bids to the shares on offer. It is very easy for vested interests to hijack the process and, if anyone's being told the highest bid was less than 350 KES/share and people bidding 350 KES/share can't get any, then that horse bolted ages ago.

I think to @murchr you mentioning that the year hasn't been kind to businesses. Actually it's innocently funny.no offense .

Then I don't know.

Bado. I had a buying schedule for diferent stocks. My target buying time for SIC haijafika if you read my posts earlier this year.

I was to buy just before their year ends but that might change if I can get some of my target shares at the NSE at a stupid discount. I might elect to buy them even if that means buying SIC shares later at a higher price and hence my earlier questions. I was to buy Unaitas before end of Dec but I am rethinking that too.

I had targets. I haven't missed any so far but given the prevailing environment, I might re evaluate what I buy and when.

MB, what you buying now at NSE?

Welcome back BGL.tell us more what will be talked about when you get a chance. Namaste

Any projections for this years performance ? Last year they did 27%

murchir I would love to add to that too. I don't get it because if you do your monthly contribution they sell the shares to you at 350 which is the maximum price. I always ask why not sell it to me monthly at 325? why always the highest bidder price.
