EQUITY BANK is a classic growth stock. The kind of stock that you want to keep im your portfolio for very many years. And bytheway KCB's branches that hav been 'makin losses' will break even in in the nxt 6 months . Read between the lines and see the explosion in eps. There's value in this company.

Bytheway the target price for Equity is 27.00 ( i'll laugh my head off if you havnt realised that half year profits are already beign factored in.) So for those wanting to take profits put your sell order at 27.00 for maximum profits.

if they report anything above 25% il now be cock sure its a pyramid scheme!

obiero, why would equity report anything less than 25 percent growth? In such a bullish economic year and with their 43 percent pre-tax first quarter growth, what has happened in between? Instead of kuteta, you should have gotten in at 13 bob last year and you would be talking of 100 percent capital gains.

Great results! We expected nothing less. As the year proceeds, we expect more of the same. For the doubters, it is a bitter pill. But seriously, did they expect anything less? Leave it out of your portfolio at your own peril. Congratulations to Dr. James Mwangi and his team.
