What will be the peak for share price in the short run? 32 possible or has it maxed out at 30?

Profitability is solid.

However ,I'm more concerned with the continuous decline in revenue growth to 7% ( 2018- 10% ,2017- 18%) .

My guess is the share will hit 30 max and decline to mid-20's in the very short-term

Mpesa is carrying the vast majority of growth. All the other services are either stagnant or too small to make an impact. The good thing it has a wide room to do cost cutting to keep up with double digit growth in profits

They still have a large capex as well which should go down as years go by so I'm positive on their profitability. Revenue growth will now be aided by acquisitions & diversification

This is a bumper dividend .
The second special dividend in 3 years.
Well done Bob. Hope his successor will sustain the momentum.

Investing long term mainly on blue chips and sector leaders for me is the best approach to bearish NSE .

Thank God for taking that decision since 2009. Thank God most dividends are incremental or constant .

Safaricom, KCB, Stanchart, EABL and co

I have already pencilled down 1.20 per share dividend from Safaricom in my estimates but now it is 1.87 (1.25+0.62), a whooping 55% dividend increase from safaricom only for this year.
This is excellent. This is salutary.

Also a strong shilling over our wobbling
naira brings more ugali to me.
(In 2015 1ksh = 1.8 naira, in 2019 1ksh= 3.65 naira)

This is both a vertical(stocks returns) and horizontal growth (currency advantage)

Thanks to you folks.

Nothing like buying good firms at fair prices and holding onto them. Sustainable growth.

Great stuff Applause Applause though I do not understand why supply is 8x demand. I thought it would go to 30+ but now I see it has lost 0.55, from 29.55 to 29.00. Oh well, if it goes down, time to load more.
