They were sub 10 just the other day. 17 is far fetched now...I bought them at 17 but I don't think they are likely to drop back to that level... for someone wanting to buy I would say 19.5 is more likely IMO Offering my personal finance knowledge for free

My 2 cents People sold shares and bought dollars anticipating share prices to fall because of the election and the dollar to hit the roof because of the "fallout" (to be) occasioned by the ICC cases and "choices have consequences". Needless to say, it did not work out very well for them!!! Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

I would be more than happy with 2-3 fold. Which is very achievable The investor's chief problem - and even his worst enemy - is likely to be himself

Check stock performance for Safaricom between 31st Dec 2011 and 31st Dec 2015. Achieving a fivefold return is possible, and even easier if you play the market and know what you are doing. Actually, it is harder if you stick with one counter for the whole period. A successful man is not he who gets the best, it is he who makes the best from what he gets.

Of course it's possible and it happens. What we are questioning is your ability to pick the 1-5 stocks that will deliver 5 fold return. See 10 best performers between 2005 and 2015 per hoover below RETURN (12.2005 – 12.2015)* 1. Limuru Tea 1158.0% 2. Jubilee Holdings 743.6% 3. Centum Investment 676.3% 4. Diamond Trust Bank 663.9% 5. Kakuzi 560.4% 6. ARM Cement 425.6% 7. Crown Paints 381.5% 8. Equity Bank 314.5% 9. KCB Bank 301.1% 10. BAT Kenya 284.8% Life is short. Live passionately.

Actually, it is harder if you stick with one counter for the whole period. We are simply asking for a list with target buying and selling price bro. Hiyo tu. It is a fact that Safaricom moved from 2.xy to 17.xy in approx 5 years - that is more than 7 times the buying price - but you surely don't expect it to move to 17 × 7 = 119/= in the next five years, do you??? That is why we need a new list. Not a historical one. Unless of course there are stocks in the historical list you expect to repeat the feat and you should point them out. Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.
