Very scared indeed. The chances of losing money in the current market are higher than those of gaining any. Since the CMA does not allow shorting, I was forced to liquidate my holdings at the start of the year. I prefer investing when I know that I can comfortably net over 70% in a year. Last year was a sideways market and I still made 93% returns, but I figured this year might be tricky. I will come back to beat the market when there is blood on the streets, and the way I see it, it wont be long, but you will have this year and part of next year to bleed out before my return.  A successful man is not he who gets the best, it is he who makes the best from what he gets.

There are only two emotions in the stock market, fear and hope. The problem is, you hope when you should fear and fear when you should hope

EQUITY and KCB speculative target by 2017 --- 70 and 80 this is just a rough idea based on their current pattern of growth , all thing being normal and more profits in near future this is likley.
SAFCOM target 2017 -- 21 , TV growth in data and voice if they penetrate home internet and 27BN in MPESA
Britam 50 ; further purchases of subsidiaries rental income from tower balance sheet growth.
KENGEN : As electricity penetrates more and more rural areas and i think the railway will eventually be grounded and not diesel driven

A seasoned investor should outperform even the best performing hedge funds purely because of the small amount of capital he has relative to the counters making it easy for him to enter and exit positions without affecting the price of the counter. I achieved 93% gain last year in a sideways market, outperforming the market by a factor of 33 or thereabout. Stocksmaster once made a 109% return on investment in 2010 I guess outperforming the index by a factor of 3 or thereabouts. But you only make those kinds of returns when the odds are in your favor, this year the odds did not seem in my favor so I decided to invest elsewhere...but I dont think its rocket science. With leverage, one could even do 200% returns, but nobody will loan you their money to buy shares A successful man is not he who gets the best, it is he who makes the best from what he gets.

After she staying in the sidelines for two months, I have finally decided to invest in stocks once again, because I have spotted a good long term opportunity. My first investment of the year will be Kenya Re, starting Monday. Activity 1: Kenya Reinsurance:- It turns out that having a majority shareholding by uncle Sam has some advantages too. Ironically, unlike in other firms, the government is a good business partner in Kenya Re http://www.businessdaily.../-/4r26sdz/-/index.html . The link reveals that it has guaranteed the business of the reinsurer for the next five years. In addition, the valuation of the counter is very low with a single digit P/E. The FY profits have been growing at a good rate in the last three years and despite the low dividend yield, the counter is a good growth stock. I intend to purchase 10,000 shares on Monday at the current price of 18.55. This will be my first investment in 2015. I will update my next buy if an opportunity arises. Happy Hunting 2015 A successful man is not he who gets the best, it is he who makes the best from what he gets.
