KCB has just started doing well... If you had invested 1,000/- in KCB vs DTB 10 years ago...! [BTW, KCB is still below its (2008?) Rights Issue price - 25 - while DTB is way above its Rights Issue price of 2006] In any event, its the future that counts! Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett

hmmm... A check shows that from 28 February 2002 to 1 March 2012 the KCB and DTB shares gained 1,076.47% and 987.65% respectively;-) Only other shares that managed to gain 1000 percent in 10 years are ARM (4300%), CMC (1,488.24%), CITY TRUST (1,210.53%) and E.A Cables (1,161.11%) GOD BLESS YOUR LIFE

Hmmm... Maybe I should start looking at this stock, but the volume spread looks very illiquid.$15/barrel oil... The commodities lehman moment arrives as well as Sovereign debt volcano!

They would be hard pressed to repeat such a sterling perfomance over the next 10 years Perhaps you would be better off looking out for 'the next ARM'  GOD BLESS YOUR LIFE

I bot ARM-IPO at 6.25 but sold at a loss! I was doing some construction and the NSE was doing badly. I couldn't stand the negative business news every evening and morning via KBC radio, only station then! My NEXT ARM is CIC. The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

Dilution on DTB is minimal (10-15%), on NIC dilution +30%, if you looking at a bank to hold for 2-3 yrs then DTB is the way to go.

This is why i like centum and NIC. Life is short. Live passionately.
