@Spikes and @Obiero now eating on the same plate though daggers drawn and hidden underneath the dining table.this is just funny

We didn't jump up and down. The 9.55 trade was obviously done across the books. Don't fear, the real value will be seen in 2016 & beyond.

you beat me in optimism, i expect 20cts to make it 30cts

@VituVingiSana;
Excise tax was not imposed to all the various fuel categories as u think;
Super petrol there was no change in tax;
Diesel excise tax was increased by ksh.2.13
Kerosene there was no change in excise tax
Expect a reduction of about ksh.8 on super petrol when the review is done next week Thursday 14 January 2016

VituVingiSana;
The Director General was even on TV yesterday where he said consumers should expect lower fuel prices due to currency being stable at ksh.102 to the dollar and falling oil prices.
He stated that only diesel had it's excise duty raised by ksh.2 as I have quoted.

For cargoes that landed in January;diesel will continue being subjected to the new excise duty while super and kerosene will have no effect.All diesel cargoes in December and January will be subjected to the new excise duty.

For the 16% VAT that will take effect in september and will affect mostly cooking gas.This was removed sometimes back when gava wanted to encourage it's consumption and reduce destruction of forests/use of charcoal for cooking.

The article on business daily is very misleading;I stopped trusting that newspaper as their news is normally vague.
To summarise and answer your last questions;
1.Diesel all cargo will be subjected to the new excise duty,VAT hakuna.
3.Fuel prices are expected to reduce since the reduction in international crude oil prices outweighs the impact of the marginal increase in excise duty for diesel.

This stock has not moved more than 2 shillings up in the last 3 years.. Wazuans need to chase better returns than the 10cents dividend from KK

Chasing KQ stock is like a cow on heat that needs shafting from natural bulls not artificial insemination.

.

2mn+ shares bought by foreigners [myStocks] at 9.40 ... Puma/Trifigura, Essar or anyone should make a play for KK at a hefty premium!

Can someone shed some more light on block trading at the NSE,I normally see million+ block of shares moved without seeing them being offered as asks/bids on the trading boards.How does this happen?,how does the buyer /seller know what millions of shares are on offer? etc.
