Hi Wazuans,

I Need some advice.

I am holding some cash (about Kshs. 100K) that I wish to use in this bargain season. My current portfolio is as follows;
KCB, Equity, K-Re, KPLC, Centum and Safaricom. I have 3 questions
1. Which of the above counters should I load up?
2. When is the right time?
3. Should I take my money elsewhere?

NB: My investment is long long term

Thanks

KCB, Equity, K-Re, KPLC, Centum and Safaricom.
Questions

1. Which of the above counters should I load up?
KPLC has a lot of GoK hands, K-Re NEVER rallies (with or without bears and bulls), Safaricom is a ticking time bomb (Their abuse of market dominance is not for a long timer), KCB & Equity, end of banks super profits is near (what is going on with banks by the way). Am only left with CENTUM.

2. When is the right time?

The right time is that time you notice a good price. I am against timing of the market, most of the time, it disappoints.

3. Should I take my money elsewhere?

If you have anywhere you can put your 100k and get 15% for three years consecutively, i'd advise you do that. But don't think bonds, they are hard to liquidate in case of "anything".

And by the way, don't make your investment decisions entirely based on what Wazua recommends. Carry out your own research. Google, call, walk around, visit, think, read, analyse.

KCB, EQUITY AND SAFARICOM. KPLC, KNRE are not stable enough for long term. Centum could be if your smart

Dunkang, since you work for Airtel. How is Safaricom abusing its dominance?

Do your own research, none of this "stock pickers" have a crystal ball to predict future prices.

Sometimes your informed gut feeling is all you need to make the best investment choice.
