as regarding banks I am with mid-caps all the way...I believe DTB will be the shining star in a few years to come...never lost steam even after all banks choked to near death...yet ignored
The utimate goal of investing is to buy low sell high;if we re-write this core equation in psychology terms it becomes buy fear sell greed.

Instead of calling BBK names, you need to understand that they are designed for a different *class*... You can have all your banking needs catered for by equity bank, family bank or any other bank.
I bank with I&M and i am satisfied with their services after i realised that i could not maintain my standard chartered bank account.

so many banks in the market, why direct your vitrol at bbk, just move coz their target these days are corporates and high networth individuals.

@guru, what should they have priced it at? Certainly not 93 someone here suggested. I had previously said they need to maximise the share premium as I believed, and still do, they would have got a full subscription even at 200.

Yes...

Have they adjusted the ratio of rights coz as i understand it their target is still 2.5B? Btw bbk are paying an interim div of sh 0.75. With an average entry of sh 50 per share, thats a yield of 1.5%. I love this share.
