Britak will be listed on Sept 8th. A day after a German court decides if it is unconstitutional for Germany to bailout PIIGS esp Greece thru the EFSF program. The outcome if against will pour cold water onto Europe & defaults will be likely. Last month US got downgraded & markets have snapped months of gains. NSE too saw a big decline in Aug. In short if the Germans says no (likely), markets will get spooked.
Now what is the sense of risking the britak listing a few hours later??? Unless PPT is planing to build a floor from Monday, it just doesn't make sense. Being a fresh listing there is no floor/roof... One spooked wanjiku could decide to sell @7 just to get out with low demand... Don't they see this or do they want this? The latter question is devious to say the least & this is where CMA looks like CCK or CBK... Perhaps something to do with the letter 'C'...
