This tells us how hard it is for pals to save and invest.@ 60 earning more than a million before allowances and still one is not financially independent?
Time is money, so money is time. Money saved is time gained in reverse! Money stores your life’s energy. You expend your energy, get paid money, and store that money for a future purchase made in a currency.

Has anyone noticed that. Some stocks get sooo much attention and interest yet they are constant underperformers, share price and even profits wise. KQ, Mumias and Kenol Kobil.

Why are we fixated on these stocks?

PRESS STATEMENT

MARCH 19, 2015 –Kenya Airways wishes to notify its customers that it has reduced its frequencies by to Da(r)-es- Salaam from 42 to 14 per week and will now fly only twice daily to Dar –Es-Salaam from today March 19th March 2015.

This is as a result of a communication from the Tanzania Civil Aviation Authority to the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority reducing flight frequencies of Kenyan carriers into Tanzania.

Kenya Airways operates 5 daily flights to Dar-es-Salaam and one to Kilimanjaro and one to Zanzibar.

Noting that Bilateral Air Services Agreements (BASA) are negotiated between governments, we are aware that the relevant Kenya Government agencies have reached out to their Tanzanian counterparts in a bid to resolve the issue.

Transport is a critical pillar in the integration of the East African Community. As such, expeditious resolution of the pending issues pertaining to the BASA is crucial in fast-tracking regional integration.

Kenya Airways remains committed to continue playing its role in promoting the growth of the regional economy and working with all stakeholders in achieving this goal.

We apologize to all our customers for the inconvenience caused during this period.

These are companies which had reputation and are at "low" prices...there is HOPE that the gvt will chip in and they recover. They are like your parents, no matter how old and schupid they appear you have to attend to them.

And KQ's employees aren't shareholders either. they are in it for the cash not growth or ownership. this non-ownership starts from the top. only person getting rimmed is the shareholder.

Dear @Obiero, I tried to warn you on many occasions. Good luck.


But even you its a well known fact here in wazua that you have been shafted dearly by KK.

And you think it might help the share, but it doesn't. Look at Crown Berger. Undiscussed almost totally. Rallied from 20.00 to 150.00 in less than 2 years. That's 750% growth!!

Yes and No. I could make this a snappy one-liner but I am more interested in the process/methodology.

Not losing money (lost opportunity cost is very high vs Equity, Safaricom, Britam, etc) but not very happy with the firm's performance to-date. KK needs to have made at least an EPS of 1/- for 2014.

Post hedging losses and post--Segman, I took a good re-look then attended all the AGMs, Investor Briefings and asked questions. I was persuaded by positive (biased) Kestrel reports. Then at 8-9, I went all-in banking on the future.

Could I be wrong? Yes. Why? 1) Price controls 2) Sales by biwott & friends (Chery) 3) Poor market conditions

I sold all my KQ at 13-14 & bought into KK at a 1.5 ratio.

I am not bothered with price movements (I like discounted shares just like Warren Buffett) as much as the trend in profit (& cashflow) movements. That's where I see my payoff as profits & cashflows steadily increase. The major shareholder still owns a huge stake thus his representatives are watching the numbers. Ohana has to prove himself a worthy successor to Segman. I don't know if Ohana has shares in KK but I will ask at the next AGM.

KK fell into a huge rut/hole but is getting out. Small 2013 profit. Larger 2014 profit. And hopefully, a much larger 2015 profit. Endgame is a buyout at a significant premium to the current price.

KQ isn't recovering. Constant pilot\staff battles. Insignificant ownership by staff/management/board. Huge losses since 2012 without gains in market share. NAV is dropping. Cash inflows from sale of assets eg land in Embakasi are used up to service (not reduce) debt.

P.S. I screwed up on not picking Safaricom vs KK based on perceived (but non-existent) competition from Airtel.

All in all, I am comfy with KK based on my projected EPS (low-ish PER), PB (based on my revaluation guesstimates vs Historic Book Value), reduced debt (and cost of servicing) and future growth in sales (increased volumes excluding OTS, trading and Jet-A1).

Could I be wrong? YES. How wrong? I estimate my downside over the next 3 years is limited to lack of profits not losses.

To paraphrase Warren Buffett, if I had 15bn, I would buy the entire firm. Lock, stock & barrel.
