What a pity. I am waiting for more dividends to re-invest. I don't want prices rising.

Centum's real estate portfolio lifts credit rating by SA agency
https://www.businessdail...1588-udl1gqz/index.html Applause Applause Applause

GCR has retained the national scale ratings assigned to Centum of A(KE) for long term borrowing and A1(KE) for short term debt.

“Much of the value creation has largely been driven by (assets) growth and real estate portfolios, with two more large property ventures expected to contribute strongly to realised and fair value profits over the next few years,” GCR says in the ratings note.

The publicly-traded investment firm plans to resume drilling of more geothermal wells in Naivasha, through its renewable energy arm Akiira Geothermal, from next month.

I don’t know about these rating agencies and how seriously we should view ratings. They didn’t see the subprime crash happening, companies like Freddie May were dropped to D- overnight from AAA. Heck they even downgraded BRK.A to AA in 2009 due to Buffett’s age 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️ But failed to pick up on Lehman, Bear Sterns and etc

I know Chris professionally and we share investment thoughts on various issues including KQ of all firms. Terryanne and I went to visit him at the executive wing of Nairobi Hospital before he flew out to the States for specialized care. It pains me that he never integrated his children better into his business.. The daughter is running an eatery at Two Rivers while the son has settled for an office job. This will go the Wells route incase he's unable to pull through.. Good thing is that he's getting better

@Horton, you used to be a fan of this share 2 years ago when it was @ 40 bob. What happened, you shifted your thinking - why?

Wells of KK?
Did you say going the Wells route? Applause Applause Applause
Bring on the takeover. Mworia (lke Ohana) has my full support to make me more cash! Where are those South Africans who like buying what Centum sells?
