Very good question...

When call rates went down by 60% in Sep'10, the share price went down a whole freaking 30% averaging to 20% down since.

Now Safaricom makes 90% of its revenue on-net and Airtel wants this price to go down another 65%? Market has to respond sooner or later but I approximate another 20% down to below 4/=.

Wolololo yaye Anxious

This telecoms is the most competitive sector in Kenya at the moment. Do banks even have it this bad?

Only one provider can survive this madness in the long-term and we all know which one that is. So it's time to get in, buy and hold SCOM when it drops as a result of this assault and reap big when this sideshow ends in one provider selling the business to the Chinese - we all know which one.

BBI will solve it :)

The jamaas went ahead and did it. Wouldn't you know it. CRAZY. Safaricom's call quality has been dismal of late, by the way

Ahhh... Ndugu @qw,

Here you are. Please let me know when you are available to buy me those beers courtesy of KPLC. I am glad you will have to spend a mere 1/- to let me know where I can quench my parched throat.

You brother from Ruaraka.
