I plan to liquidate half of my holdings in anticipation of this IPO's...i have been looking at their numbers...been chatting to the folks on twitter...12% in JM's Equity and Sister HF...2.7B profit even JUB will envy them...overall 6B is too small for an IPO likely to be superly OverSubscribed...

This are very insensitive statements which I would expect to come only from conceited individuals. This is a capitalist economy. Everyone should participate - big or small. And what makes you think having more money means you have 'more' brains?

Many people here - who started investing at the 'right' time - started small time. I have seen threads from wazuans - who I commend and urge on - asking for ideas on how to invest 50k or even less. Why would you want to lock them out? What makes you think your 1m or so will not be more destabilizing to the stock? Better yet, why not set the minimum at say 10m, 20m or even 100m to lock out as many 'jokers' as possible.
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

@Mlennyma

That is a tough call. Free Market means you facilitate access to the market for all, fair and equal. Otherwise, one institute can buy all the Britak IPO shares.

Why would you say that? Are you more human or Kenyan than them or the currency you use is signed by Mr Gates? This must be the worst comments I've read in this forum. By the way those poor people you despise so much are the ones God loves the most.

BBI will solve it

Quick Facts on Britak: None of the current shareholders will be selling their shares during the IPO...therefore new shares will be offered during the IPO...the current Britak owners will be diluted by this new shares...there will also be a lock in period for the current owners.

A snippet from my upcoming blog post on Britak....kesho if i have i time.

Most of their clientele are common mwanaichi and to win their loyalty they'll have to be considered expect the min will cater for the Wanjikus!
