speculation is necessary for most investors to dissipate excessive energies which left unchecked can ruin your overall performance...its just like scratching an itch.just dont let it be your main focus.
The utimate goal of investing is to buy low sell high;if we re-write this core equation in psychology terms it becomes buy fear sell greed.

ACTIVITY 14: PURCHASE OF DIAMOND TRUST BANK 2000 SHARES @ KSH 118
DATE: 13/10/10

COST OF TRANSACTION=KSH 236,000
ADD 2% TRANSACTION COST = KSH 4700
TOTAL COST OF ACTIVITY 14 = KSH 240,700

RATIONALE OF PURCHASE
This counter has alot of upside potential if the half year results are used as a yard stick. Despite a poor dividend yield, the growth is fantastic. The Q3 results will paint a clearer picture but in the short term, a price of 145 (Trailing P/E of about 18 based on at least a 70% Y-O-Y growth for 2010)

I am still looking to increase my holding in DTB today although the supply of the share is constrained.

Happy hunting.

ACTIVITY 15: PURCHASE OF 2200 DTB SHARES AT KSH 119 PER SHARE.
DATE:14TH OCT. 2010

COST OF TRANSACTION:KSH 261,800
ADD 2% TRANSACTION COST: KSH 5200
TOTAL COST OF TRANSACTION:KSH 267,000

SUMMARY OF PORTFOLIO AFTER ACTIVITY 15:
4200 DTB SHARES
2111 SCBK SHARES
CASH IN HAND:KSH 5645

Supply of the DTBK shares today picked up and hence was able to pick up some more. As earlier stated, the bank should easily post 100% growth for the Q3 2010 compared to last years' Q3.

Happy hunting.

It is DTB that will eventually drive you past the inevitable mark of 100% return for the year

@ Stocksmaster, Wao!! seems we are holding DTB together!!!

Kudos. The only difference between my porfolion and yours is that instead of SCB I have Equity. I see banks being the king this year. I will keep whatever I have till Mar next year when full year results are out. Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly

@Stockmaster. I am glad to see you have picked up DTB. I hold some in my long-term portfolio which I bought prior to their last rights issue.

So far I would say DTB has been a dissapointment in terms of share price growth relative to other counters that I have held during the same period.

This has not been to do with the performance of the bank which has been stellar. Somehow, NSE players have never really taken a liking for the counter.

As a matter of fact, I was thinking of exiting the counter. I hold too many banks in any case.

I was going to put in all proceeds from DTB into Jubilee until first half results came through with over 100% profit growth. For the moment I continue to hold it, but I will be surprised if the 100% profit growth is repeated in Q3. Please note that most of the increase in H1 came from bond trading.

DTB, Jubilee & TPSEA have great management... Nation is also OK but the newspapers' quality is lousy!

As far as I am concerned Jubilee is the real gem. They have a stake in all the others and in a lot more.
