Some of my plays:

1. Still in the KenGen bus since boarding at 7.50...CFC boarded at 34-40 mark...that one is going to 120...a return of +200% within 1 and 1/2 yeats then I retire smile....I also have Liberty...Umeme.. HF...

2. Still hoping KK will return to profit making ways and the share recovers.

3. Planning to buy more of Liberty and Kenol....since the foreign limit on CFC is up ...I dont know what CMA can do.

With the market seeming to have divorced politics from its activities, it is high time i jumped back to this market.

My predictions about KCB hitting Ksh 40 before April 2013 (predicted about 7 months ago:(> 10 % Dividend Yield........my new yard stick in NSE stock picking) seem to have been spot on. I had however exited earlier, based on my cautionary approach regarding the elections. No regrets...... sometimes you have to forgo potential gains in order to preserve capital.

My 1st play for this year is Coop Bank. I have been accumulating it since the beginning of the week at about Ksh 15.

Coop Bank at todays price (Ksh 16.30) is trading at a P/E 8.86 (Compared to Equity - 10.2; KCB - 9.92).

It is also trading at a P/B of about 2.3 which is also lower than the two banks above. It is trading at cum dividend (Dividend of Ksh 0.50 for year ending Dec 2012 which was a 25% rise as compared to dividend for 2011)

Its ROE of about 26% is higher than the sector average of about 23%.

Its Profit after tax (PAT) for year ending Dec 2012 versus Dec 2011 was a rise of 43.7% (compared to Equity PAT 17%; KCB PAT 11%).

It has set a target of doubling its agency network in 2013 from 5,000 to 10,000 agents in Kenya.It is also set to start its South Sudan operations in April 2013 via a joint partnership with the Government of South Sudan. This is a very interesting partnership that should give coop bank a serious competitive advantage in that market.

My price target is a minimum of Ksh 20 once this elections are dusted (a 22% upside potential); and a 12 months target price of Ksh 27.50 based on an estimated EPS of Ksh 2.30 for year ending December 2013.

Happy Hunting.

The peace dividend should push the coop bank share to trade at a p/e of 11-12 (a share price of Ksh 20-22) in the short term.

Happy hunting.

I still have many banks on my portfolio. How could avoid these money make makers? I am more of a long termer and these is how my holdings in banks are:

HF - my newest holding, purchased between 13.20 -17.15. This i will ride to 30.

NIC - This has always been in my portfolio for last 5 years. Lightened at 48 in 2010 then took up rights and added between 28-32. Wish i had more cash. Will lighten ex-div. This a counter where encash my returns through capital gains by selling then buying low in next cycle.

KCB - The lion was almost 30% of my portfolio in mid 2012. Been reducing at the major resistance points as we go up. Now halved already. Will divorce completely this year if we hit PE of 10.

BBK - This was my darling in 2008-2010. Bought @ 35-40 enjoyed good div yields lightened at 67 pre-split. Most of the rest has gone @16.50-17.00. Less than 5% of portfolio remaining.

The blue chips look to have topped or almost topped while the smaller caps still have millleage in them. I am selling BBK and KCB and holding HF and NIC.

Cash from BBK and KCB will be used to hunt for bargains in NMG and EABL.

@Stocksmaster how did the USD play go? Do you think we should still buy dollars, as the ICC/ skype presidency still looms?

The NASI is already 20% YTD and many busses have zoomed except for laggards like KQ, KK, Total. In my opinion, if someone missed the rally so far, its best to put the money in fixed income and money market securities and wait for the next round of discounts.

It so hard to find good stocks selling reasonably, unless you now want to go very long term.
What says you?

@Sparkly: We still hav 2 months before trials......With the foreign powers softening, the USD play may not yield much unless they abscond appearances. The risk for the nse shares market will come from the GoK hunger for cash.

The jubilee govt inheriting of a broke treasury and a KRA unable to hit its targets versus huge devolution costs and a need to implement an ambitious manifesto will surely bring the fixed income and money markets into play especially in the 2nd half of the year.

But in the nxt few weeks, the peace dividend will be paid to the wise investor.

Happy hunting.

One can hedge 33.33% of their total NSE portfolio in USD to completely protect themselves from euphoria!!

@mwenza the master may have inadvertently misled alot of people with his 1st quarter strategy, usiamini kila kitu unasoma hapa wazua; tumia akili pia. anywho, that said, co-op is not a bad bet
