OLYMPIA CAPITAL HOLDING!! OLYMPIA CAPITAL HOLDING!! OLYMPIA CAPITAL HOLDING!! OLYMPIA CAPITAL HOLDING... Bought 1000 @ 35.00 then 2000@ 20 then took up all my right n additional 1000@ 14. Bought another 5K @ 15.50 Managed to Exit 10K at 9.00. and holding 6000. Contemplating of averaging down but once bitten twice shy!

DAMN! I'm afraid that expression does not do you justice. You have clearly been bitten more than once! Just to ask, what kept you coming for more? Uza tu at a loss. Even at the current market, there are still bargains that will enable you to recover some of your money. I bought at 8.4 and sold at 7.3. Sitawahi gusa vitu zingine. Siku hizi ata speculation inahitaji fundamentals. I now laugh remembering management telling us they expected their results to be enhanced by the world cup

@kirti how do u calculate the average?av alwys been buyin n selin without the averagin bt now am cought up in kq where i must average or get fryed.plis help.

pole kijana....Hii kitu yenye inaitwa "Averaging' ni kitu I'll never do! Si nimeumia at the first place then why buy it again? What tells u it wont umiza you again? Na wewe hata baada ya kuumia the second time you again bought for the 3rd time...Aiiiiiii ... uko na guts kijana.. Kitu mbaya ni mbaya tu wachajana nayo ...from 35/= to 20/= ni 43% down.. tena from 20/= to 14/= ni 30% down na again from 14/= to 9/= Aisey ... U deserve the bite...

That is some ish kwanza sana

Wazuan kindly dont laugh at me...atleast nimefungua roho yangu!! Am sure there are those who have more to say but r just keeping to themselves...just to mention few are those that bought in to CABLES, Centum before the split n CFC Stanbic before the merger. I accept I burned my fingers (sic hands) on this...may be its coz am using blood money. LOL!! @ simonkabz nilijaza weight nawadays!

I have been fairly lucky;only mess was buying a number of BOC at between 130-140 despite reservations from a number of Wazuians. I did not lose money, but opportunity. I have since beefed my KCB, most of which I took during the rights and adding up at the current price. I have also added some DTB (this could be another ARM!). I am speculating with Safcom and MSC. I missed two boats EABL and ARM.

for me, the most frustrating stock of all time would have to be Sameer, aka Firestone. I cost me an arm n a leg, a staggering 28.50 per stock in early Dec 2006 only to sell it for a song at a paltry 10 in June 2008. I learned my lessons, picked myself up, dusting myself as i got to my feet, walked on never to look back!!!!! Since that day, i have always feared Merali!

Sufficiently Philanga....thropic, you should catch a beer with VVS sometime. I think you two will get along just fine.

my first share to by at NSE was buying ICDCI at 80 having quoted market price as my broker told me it will do another cables after split. And sold it at 32 and learnt hard lessons the hard way. pole ndugu
