What profit can Kenyan Oil marketers make with the current fall in crude oil prices? Had KK hedged on anything this time round or is it laughing all the way to the bank after realising hedging was fraud?
Birds of the same feather fly together and I am waiting to see KK inline with Total.


I was also thinking the same is the drop in crude oil good for Kenol or bad?If good definitely this is one counter guys should get into big time...


I believe they stopped since their hedging partner also stopped that biashara, it cuts both sides you know(Zero Sum). Otherwise this year all, fuel companies are going to make super profits. Okay this how it works: Assuming today is Dec 14th when ERC sets the price. The price has variables (i.e Forex, CIF and premium) based on the months of October and November. However the products available and sold within the month of December will constitute November and December costs. There is the catch, when prices are falling (actually about Ksh5/Ltr per month in this case),the marketers have an expensive component (October Variables) in their prices which is not in the actual costs for cargo delivered in December. The assumption here is that the forces of demand and supply are consistent.
And that's why I will bet more of my eggs with KK until the tied changes.

That tide can change very fast. So KK has to be careful if the oil prices start rising. They do not want to be caught with pricey stocks. I believe KK plays just in time vs storing large amounts as it did previously.


With this in mind would you go all in?

This oil thing is heading towards $50 which means brent oil will also slide towards 52-54 level.

The KK needs to breakdown tough resistance @10.00 handle to give the bulls the upperhand. This level keeps rejecting any bullish advances. A retest of 8/- is likely and if fails to rope in solid support, this thing will fall towards 6!? Critical support level is 8.00 handle where 100M shares (jumbo vol spike) traded back in Aug 2014 and forced the price to bounce. I'd be surprised if that support caves in...
$15/barrel oil... The commodities lehman moment arrives as well as Sovereign debt volcano!

What advantage are manufacturers facing with the falling crude oil prices or are they always caught on the wrong side due to energy import quotas and agreements like say they already paid for the oils for First quarter 2015 at high price and cannot make new adjustments?
Is America re-stocking thereby bring the prices down. The problem is they are the miners, sellers, buyers, manufacturers, mention any.
For KK they hve to lick so many A**** before they can make any tangible investment from international controllers, govt, barons and systems in place and thieves.!!!!

Vivo Energy —the retailer of Shell-branded fuel products— has widened its market share gap on rival oil majors, including Total Kenya and KenolKobil.
The latest data by industry lobby group the Petroleum Institute of East Africa (PIEA) shows that Shell increased its market share to 20 per cent in the nine months to end of September, up from 16.9 per cent in a similar period last year.

At what margin? KK off 2014 numbers will clearly demonstrate oil distribution is first and foremost a margin game then volumes.

KK does business in 10 countries. Market share in Kenya not the only indicator of business performance.
