I pray it goes to 200 bob so i can get afew more shares before the rights, by the way i need some small advise on kplc i currently have paltry 1000 shares which is about 1 yr old now i bought at 180 per share sometimes october last last yr. Now i have intention to increase the shares by about 800,000 (New shares) and also further get the rights at about 400,000 so im hoping to inject about 1.2M on the shares.

1) I have 1m cash but i intend to sell of kcb (i bought kcb at 26 same time last year and they have been performing with snail speed now still at a loss, do you think its prudent to sell off my 12000 kcb shares at aloss and pump up onto to kplc? kcb have been moving upwards lately and am a little confused if i really wantt to get rid of it. which one do you think will make me profits first stay with kcb or change them to kplc?

2) I have been doing maths on either buying kplc shares and waite for rights issue, with options on 1) buy before books close on 8th sept and get 5 bob dividend and get the rights as well, or 2) waite for the price to drop further im hoping the price will continue going south as the rights date come closer ( Im praying hard for that any probabilty calculated will be appreciated) and buy low priced shares and forfeit dividends, mathematically which one do you think would give more profits?

3) Is it more profitable to buy rights? at the stock market rather than buy shares and pay for 40% allocated rights? thanks

Electricity sales keep on rising. Even if the cost of power rises...

Peak Demand is 100MW higher than last year.

On the way down KPLC has been trading serious volumes with locals as net sellers and foreigners as net buyers...

When I see this kind of scenario my faith in a company is increased because in terms of entry and exits Local investors have got it all wrong whereas foreigners have got it all right...

Foreigners are itching to get in... There may be no need for an Underwriting but that will 'boost' confidence in the shares...

GoK would have been smarter to exercise the Rights then sell them off as an Offer For Sale in 2 years!

I sold my entire Kenya-Re position to get into KPLC. Alas, ever since KPLC has been dropping and Kenya-Re rising....

I however do not regret getting out of Kenya-Re. That is a dodo stock if ever there was one.

Do'nt buy KPLC @ 220 or lower price. I suggest to buy right from the market.

@KIRTI what if the rights are traded issued at 149 are traded on the market at 60bob premium??? then it really makes no difference

rights will be issued at 18/= per share (post split) or 144/= pre split. I have my doubts whether the current price will drop below 220/=, but we wait to see.
