GG, before you make any decision on AK remember that it is still the top dog in Corporates. And the reduction in profitability is as a result of massive investment in the cables. They spent 1 billion in investment last year and are "only" expected to spend a quarter of that this year.
AK has consistently exceeded its targets for "Accces@home".
Safaricom is not perfect. It has problem with its network in certain areas. I am convinced it will record better results this year. I also have some copped a 21.50 and I will hold.
Maybe we might get acquired by a bigger tech company(the stuff dreams are made of!)
GOD BLESS YOUR LIFE

I see an acquisition in the near future... The Somen brothers want a payoff...

When I say 'acquisition' I mean AK is for sale...

@youcan't of the laggards you have mentioned I hold AccessKenya. At 24% loss it trails Paka (47% loss), Orchards (30% loss) in my portfolio. Which would have been OK if it was not 9.3% of my portfolio. I hope they have positive news at the postponed AGM.

@GG waaaa very risky portifolio. What else do you have? Access and cables are causing me enough discomfort
