your list shows an average profit of ksh 10,833.333333333333333333333333333 per month for the last 10 years.
Some would say it's better if you would have invested in matatu,where the 10,833.333333333333333333333333333 can be made within a day,
I am surprised by the low returns considering the time, research that goes into stocks, and the associated stress. If one bought a 1/4 acre at syokimau 10yrs ago @400k it would be worth 4m today giving you 3.6m profit, or an 'average profit' of 30k pm.  you could as well do quills if you do not understand ndungu report @sqft. many have gotten shafted and permanently relieved on those maasai/ KAA lands. officially am through with replacing doors and windows to my recently bought building. the vendor played hard ball and refused to move. some pple thinks that since you are buying their land they are doing you a favour and your money is not of any value. even agreements and deeds of ownership means you shoul be patient. hell with them. bile  COOP 7,200; HFCK 2,300; KEGN 1,600; KQ 106,500.. I re-energise my portfolio in the next few weeks. Time to buy has arrived obiero what was your entry prices in kengen,hfck and coop? Towards the goal of financial freedom

I like the list too.. Try to keep losses to a minimum, but remember one has to be ready to see dwindling positions from time to time. All the best @ebenyo hope this answers you on the entry prices. And for those who claim I have made KES 10,833 per month over 10 yrs, you dont know even a quarter of my Story, which is well documented right here on wazua where I inform all buy/sell decisions. Plus most of my active/large purchases such as KCB & KQ happened 2yrs ago. Stocks are a good way of passive Investment. Those who are in property acquisition / building know what I mean

Not understanding the consequences of a planned rights issue. Buying kengen before the 280mw geothermal hype @ 11.20cts. Later buying the same share as it tanks to 10.20 and later 9.00 with all my savings. Rights issue i had only sukuma wiki funds so i painfully watched from the sidelines as i now contemplate the dilution. Praying this share to hit 4-5 mark and i win a Jack pot. Meantime niko emotional na kengen.😂😂😂😂

Buying a matatu is a good idea if you make money and invest in stocks. Fully agree Spikes. Everyone must have a portfolio of stocks, real estate and active business. And an open line of credit for when arbitrage opportunities arise. "Buy when there's blood in the streets, even if the blood is your own."

I saw Safaricom at 2.70/- and was financially distressed by then even putting food on the table was difficult. I whispered to a friend whom I was going through the newspaper with that 'this stock in future will rebound exponentially.' The prophecy I released painfully while extremely broke has come to pass. John 5:17 But Jesus replied, “My Father is always working, and so am I.”
