I've reconsidered my earlier position on KCB... anything below 24 seems like a good deal. I wish to take EQB @26, 26.5 max if i can get in. Any advice / comments on my prices?

I'm completely surprised, I've always thought all along that the building at upperhill belongs to them. I think the bld belongs to UAP Insurance (Joe Wanjui, the World Bank's landlord)

So Equity owns the computers, movable furniture, vehicles, ... Do they've a training school? The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

(B) - KCB net interest income grew by 36% to stand at KShs. 19.6 Bn (21% increase in the bank’s loan book [KShs.148 Bn] and reduced cost of funds) - Equity interest income grew by 28% to KSh.13.8 Bn (81% increase in interest income from Government Securities and 20% surge in interest income from loans and advances)
(C) KCB Earnings per Share (diluted & basic ) - Kshs.2.76 whilst Equity's stands at KSh.1.93.
(D) KCB asset base KShs.251B whilst Equity is KSh.143 Bn.
When looking at a growth firm, I'm more interested in capital growth as compared to dividends...looking at the assets and performance above, Equity is doing a lot more with less for it to even be comparable to KCB. @Ecstasy I agree with you very much. But that is being theoretical. Lets go down to what matters. Making money. Okay, philosophy does not make money. Money is made by buying low and either getting extra bonanza dividends or selling for capital gains. Anything else wont wash. In other words, if you get into the stock market because a company is nice but does not put the bacon or a bigger hot dog on the table, it is as good as grinding water. Speculators, Punters, etc know that if I can wait, I will be able to buy Equity at 25 or less. So, why hold or buy it now when I can make more through capital gains than the 80 cents. Further, we are on the eve of an election year. Wait you see. At the end of the day, what are you doing investing without getting to enjoy some of the money today? What is wrong with buying BBK at 51 last december, sell at 70 two months later. I might hate BBK, I know they made a one off 3.5b etc. The only time BBK matters to me is when it helps me make 20 bob per share in two months. Explanations, ranting, comparisons etc won't count much if Equity won't give a superior return this time as others are giving their shareholders handsome dividends. Then, we get into Equity when it hits rock bottom. Remember there was a time Equity was trading at 33 (330 b4 split) All quoted companies will only benefit you if you know how to move around making maximum returns at specific times instead of being a slave to a few which you never sell even when it makes business sense to dispose. Do you know there are people currently buying Access Kenya: Ati it is cheap, very cheap. They don't know the company is dying and revival is next to impossible. Olympia: You want to make money in between the wild fluctuation but the day it will die, all your capital will go with it. Eveready: From 2.50 to 3 bob is super capital gains. When did you last buy Eveready batteries? Check this out... http://www.youtube.com/w...4Gg&feature=related
Haha! Like the expressions & the link..I agree with you mate. I believe the discussion parameters are undefined. Is one a speculator or investor? If investor, what investment period are we factoring? Your moves seem largely speculative... the higher the risk, the higher the return or money or loss made...as a balance to make some money on the NSE I believe one needs to speculate (mpango wa kando) and invest (mama watoto) at the same time...

Looks at KCB's three year plan on cost to income and ROA.. If they manage to bring these to industry average Equity will have nothing on them.. KCB dividend payout is good..best be..the stock had lagged like a problem...KCB have the craziest wage bill in the industry. According to Oduor-Otieno, McKinsey & Company consultants reportedly have 24 or so months to complete REVIEW KCB BUSINESS MODEL, OPERATING STRUCTURES & PROCESSES to make it more efficient and productive while setting the stage for their leap to the next level. This includes review of the bank's corporate and governance structures, business model, job roles & people placement, risk management and mitigation mechanisms, employee performance management and reward frameworks as well as IT infrustructure and subsidiary businesses, amongst other areas... By the time KCB finish or is it start.. paying and implementing all this...likely in phases, don't we think that EB or even DTB will have grown at a faster rate? I can then consider KCB quite seriously...

I can then consider KCB quite seriously... @Ecstacy Well thought out views. It reminds me of a time we almost climbed on each other with KJ (Kinyanjui of 52 (54) million prison warden award) when I said KQ is likely not to perform well after Brian Davies left for a Brown Kenyan to take over. (I hope this raises your temperature for the sake of debate). On the same measure, I criticized the removal of Gareth George from KCB to replace him with a Brown guy earning far less than George was getting. Why the difference? Why does Naikuni get less than what Brian Davies was getting? Is it the academic papers or what? Why is Mwangi so successful? Can he earn what Jan Muhammed ( or something like that) is earning today if he is employed at BBK? Go overdrive in purchasing the goods when there's blood on the streets, expecially if the blood is your own

@surealligator: What does Jan Muhammad [of TPSEA] make? [Plus he is in hotels while Mwangi is in banks] Who says Naikuni gets less than Davies was paid? [BTW, where did you get the numbers? What does TN make?] Actually, Terry Davidson replaced Gareth George. GG was kicked out coz he got tough with defaulters! Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett

Stock Market Wisdom dictates that if a company has given you a dividend over market price of 2.76%, you dump the shares like yesterday. But if you have peculiar habits, you can wait for the 80 cents dividend. Equity's EPS of 2.04 is not impressive compared to KCB. KCB is even better as it is giving a higher div at 1.25 but the price is still at 23. Hallo? If you can't dump your Equity today, wait for it to fall again tomorrow before you do so or hold your peace.  .. some one kindly explain this logic to me... i dont quite get it. if there is dividend paid out, the share price drops why? keep it simple WTF

Profit taking well underway. Pseudo investors can offload and return at lower prices.

However, if you sell the deal to a third party on Dec 30, 2010 you would expect 110 from him. If it is the next day after Dec 31,2010 you can sell the deal to a third party at 100 because you already pocketed ten bob and the third party has to wait another year before receiving interest the yrs interest. It follows that if the third party sells the deal halfway through the year, it would cost 105 holding everything else constant. However, if political temperatures are rising, you can sell the deal at 70 bob cauze nobody wants to get into deals in uncertain business climate. @VVS I meant Adan Moha. After exhaustively arguing the case, we came to realize that European executives working in Kenya usually have minimal preference of employing ppl based on nepotism and tribalism. In other words, professionals get employed. Thus, the company works well. That is why Walias in various senior positions perform better as they are yet to get tainted with the kinsman syndrome. ie., iiec etc Walias for president. African Kenyans usually get their own kin into the company and when Peter's Principle settles in, the company ends up worse.
