This guys are good dividend payers wacha rako.


he's talking on historical dividend yield.. all those years the stock traded over 60 with shs0.70 dividend..

the lower the price the higher the Div Yield hence "Good" dividend paying..compare to price.

I blame it on the Insititutional investors....who have decided to exit at the wrong time...this is a big risk to the NSE...once the foreigners exit the NSE will rock.

no need to worry...the foreigners will most probably waltz their way in by the end of this month to early next year.
The utimate goal of investing is to buy low sell high;if we re-write this core equation in psychology terms it becomes buy fear sell greed.

Based on the cash needs of KQ the dividend may be just 1/-... It is a growth firm at the moment... KQ 'spoilt' us with dividends coz most high growth firms do not pay dividends...

KQ is planning to buy/lease planes worth over $1bn [KES 82 billion] in the next 3 years... The deposits required are at least $25mn...

When did KQ ever spoil us? The highest dividend KQ has ever paid in a financial year has been Kshs 1.75. As a matter of fact KQ's dividend payout ratio has been fairly low except in the last couple of years where it rose even though KQ slashed the dividend. I guess they felt that they could not go lower than Kshs 1, in spite of the hard times (lower EPS).

LOL... 'Spoilt' meaning that for a growth firm they even gave anything... That said I like a dividend too... Many high(er) growth firms pay a zero (or small) dividend to expand... Also many lenders prefer low/zero dividends coz that leaves the cash in the business...

As long as the insititutions continue to dump the stock...KQ will tank...just pray for a big buyer to come along cos KQ has expanded n the expansion is starting to pay off big time...

I cant wait myself to see this Great Stock start the upward surge.
i think we are were we were in late Nov 2004, early Dec 2004 when KQ suddenly began the take off past KES 10 to reach an all time high of KES 34 when TN announced the results in late May 2005. And it didnt stop there, by the time investors were going for the AGM in Sept, the stock was trading post 70!!!!
For those who haven't boarded this plane, i suggest you consider flying KQ!
