I have been going through some reports about this company,and it appears they have issued profit warnings in the last two successive years. Agribusiness companies have unpredictable earnings,but at the current price of 11.50ksh,is it a buy,hold or a sell??Am not good at crunching numbers. A successful man is not he who gets the best, it is he who makes the best from what he gets.

I thought you crunched #s for the Scom to arrive at the conlusion that it(Scom)'s a no-go zone! The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

Yes I did but a second opinion or more is better to justify or prove my findings wrong....in stock analysis,your work alone is not enough A successful man is not he who gets the best, it is he who makes the best from what he gets.

If you think it's worth more you buy if you think it's worth less you sell or hold. Remember you always buy the underlying assets when you buy a share whether those assets produce a good return depends on many factors especially management

I've never been a fan of Merali firms. He's always cashing out on IPOs. Would you sell your golden cow to the village?$15/barrel oil...

Meralli is a corporate mercenary. Look at what he has done to Sameer, Everready, uchumi, Kencell, KDN etc. He always comes out a winner while the others suffer. Life is short. Live passionately.

"Pressure's coming in on the December/March spread and it's becoming more difficult for someone to be long coffee," said one U.S. coffee dealer. http://af.reuters.com/ar...ws/idAFL6E8LAJW320121010

True. The coffee futures pattern is shaping out for shorts. Agri firms with coffee alone will feel the heat.$15/barrel oil... The commodities lehman moment arrives as well as Sovereign debt volcano!

Sasini is now eyeing the real estate market to reduce the influence of weather and volatile coffee prices on its earnings with the agro business accounting for more than 90 per cent of its sales.
Sasini has singled out approximately 1,000 acres of land in Ruiru that is currently under coffee for the project.
“The board decided that developing the land is a worthwhile venture and we are only holding back until commercial bank’s interest rates are favourable enough for us to borrow funds,” said James McFee, the chairman of Sasini in an earlier interview with the Business Daily.

I am left a very confused shareholder...do I sell at a small loss tomorrow with the 10% limit or do I wait for the long run and paltry final dividend?...real estate takes time to implement,so fy 2013 will still rely on agriculture...considering it is a meralli stock,I am dismounting tomorrow. A successful man is not he who gets the best, it is he who makes the best from what he gets.
