The "problem" with SCOM [if indeed it is a problem] is NOT the number of SHARES [40b], but the number of SHAREHOLDERS [800,000]. If we can figure a way of cutting this to 80,000, then you will see the price rising...

Reverse-splitting [or consolidation] will not change things!

well if i was pregnant on Scom...i wouldnt look on wazua for a week or any of those richlive or mystockslive threads but wait for results in the daily nation..LOL.

I can bet you if they did a reverse split and only has 4B shares they would never trade below 60/- while nothing else would have changed including the 1/- dividend the perception would be different. Look at equity with almost 4B shares gaining by sometimes more than a shilling a day.


Reality. that is not happening anytime soon.
my argument...no need to get all excited unless you are a momentum trader..or behavior trackers hence larger risk threshold... But as investment.. safaricom is not the better option here.

Ask yourself if you would buy the whole company...

A better question would be, would you buy the whole company at 220 Billion (i.e 5.5/= * 40 Billion). Now, would you?
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.
