Buying C&G at 42 only to sell at 38
Finally sold Safcon earlier this year after buying at 5.90...worst move/buy of my life...
@the deal waaah, have you made any money overall? Yet to make my best move. Sold my trading positions late last year. Now buying... Safcom, kcb, centum, kk. possibly bamburi in a few weeks Yep the moves were executed at different intervals of the year...i.e C&G in Feb...Kenol in May...Uchumi just recently...i'm the type who never re invests profits and dividends.although I ventured into some computer business were I almost got wiped...waaah I remember paying a bribe of 5K just to have the business registered...Kenya is one hell of a jungle...

KK - And waiting for the interim dividend... and more dividends in 2012 & 2013... Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett

Started stock investment in the mid 90s. I have made only 4 sells from then, i.e KCB, KQ, Kengen and Nation all proceeds reinvested back, I purchase on average, after every 2 months.
Looking forward to start selling in 2013 - 2015 or there about.
