I have 4500 Equity Bank shares..........
Before the books closed,I would have sold all these shares at 125.............
However,I held on to them till they became post split............
Today,I still have the 4500 shares which I can sell at 15.95...........
In fact,I have just sold them...............
Come May,CDS Corporation will upload into my CDSC account 40500 shares of EB..............
At that point,I can decide to sell them or keep them...........
If you add 40500 and 4500,you get 45000,the product of 4500 times 10 (1 share split into ten)...............

Pavlov,I love that name. It reminds me of stimulus,puppies,response etc............

Note,NSSF will be back in the Market shortly,infact,they might be back..........
I don’t know where the hell demand has come from.............
Ie.,EB demand is 1 500 000 while supply is 5 000. The share has moved from 14.50 this morning to 15.95.



Take one step at a time.

Regarding this seeming high demand; I wrote in another thread [http://www.stockskenya.com/newsite/stkForumTopic.aspx?stk=0&top=13605] that:

Right now,the price is being driven by the fact that purchase orders are pegged on a shilling amount....e.g.,if I had placed an order for 500 @ sh120,I should have given my broker sh60kPost split book closure,my order is still valid,but this time,the cash amount can take up 5,000 shares.....On the other hand,If you had placed an order to sell 500 @ sh120,suddenly the 500 effectively became 50 at sh120....or 500 at 12....because the par value of the share was divided by a factor of 10.
