When tourist numbers have been reported to have been picking up! sigh! There are too many opportunities all around. Open your eyes and maybe you'll spot one

I like TPSEA [I have a few shares but not as part of my core portfolio] for the management chops. They have done well in a tough industry. I was at Serena Nairobi and it is a construction site mess! They are refurbishing the hotel as well as building a new extension on the parking lot bordering Kenyatta Ave. New rooms, banquet facilities, etc are on the horizon. The refurbishment must have hit the bottomline was guests avoid construction zones. Bottomline: The group is positioning itself for the next 5+ years... Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett

They have done well in light of the tough operating enviropment and ongoing refurbishments. When the developments translate to concrete profits, i will gladly sell to you at ~Kshs 60. For now i remain in accumulation mode. Life is short. Live passionately.

I thought we had turned the corner after last year.H2 is where they make their profits so let's wait and see. Last 5 years have been really tough for this company, the next 5 should be better now that alshabaab almost fully contained. No ebola The investor's chief problem - and even his worst enemy - is likely to be himself

Slow down in the economy and expenses incurred in the refurbishment of serena hotel nairobi are the cause. Hope for uptick in the economy to boost bed occupancy Wealth is built through a relatively simple equation

The Number of beds around Nairobi is increasing very fast...refurbishments may not yield much...Its a case of refurbish or get left behind...in the early 2000's, Serena was the ultimate experience... now there are 3 or 4 better places in Nairobi...apart from security issues...East Africa is becoming an expensive tourist destination compared to Southern Africa due to the weak rand...its boom time for tour operators here Check out this article here http://www.capitalfm.co....g-better-hotels-nairobi/
