I have to give it up to pkoli. He got this bang on and time proved him right. Rem when pple were waiting for this at 15 post dilution. My only gripe is i dint get more sub-19.

@VVS. I like your idea of leverage. I admit it is risky but there are times when you have a compelling investment case. However, most banks insist on freezing your shares if you use them as collateral. This reduces flexibility big time.

Do you or does anyone else here know of any bank that has a more flexible arrangement?

Yes, but I negotiated the 'flexibility' thanks to a very cooperative & understanding Relationship Manager... Now promoted to Branch Manager...

If you get a rigid dunderhead then you are screwed...!

The Bank I has a great custodial department as well... They do charge me an annual fee + transaction fee...

pkoli alitukanwa sana hapa hapa kwa wazua alipokuwa akisema hisa za KCB ni za maana na zitapanda kwa kasi. Nitatafuta hayo majadiliano niyapachike, ndio mkimye!


Thanks Obiero. Luckily I never followed people's advise. I have a huge chunk averaging 17.5 and so I am not complaining. Like they say in the stock market do not always follow the crowd. I did not at this time. I did not follow the crowd when buying CFC and similarly CIC. On these no regrets.

@VVS, This sounds like I & M, which I however know insists on liens. Otherwise their custodial dept is great.

Hey, that is a risk that I am willing to take. The stock market is risky after all - That's why returns are generally higher than other investment classes.

I will continue to hold out for a better price until my price target is reached - at least Kshs 23! I would only consider bolting before then, if the assumptions on which I based my purchase are breached.

At 23, that will be good returns within such a short duration. I think it will most likely trade at the same price as equity (around 26 bob).

@obiero why do you say only @pkoli....

@pkoli was entitled to rights meaning he bought the share at cum rights when it was trading at above 21 if he averaged down with the rights he's average buy is about 19.75....

I got in ex rights at 18.10-18.50 so i guess i'm in a better position than he is

This is not a d*@#% measuring contest gentlemen, and lady. Lets discuss the stock.

Anyone- Is this share still a good buy at the current price or would one agree that a buy below 22 is still agood buy.I have always compared KCB to equity which almost simillar "fundamentals".I this we can see this share get to the same trading levels as equity.

If I had money I would still accumulate. The potential for upsurge is huge. As we move towards the 3rd quarter reporting, there is quite some repositioning. End year results should be sweet with nice dividends
