"Analysts project that the British American IPO would achieve full subscription because of the low pricing and interest received just yet, with Mr Munyi saying that institutional investors tended to express their interest in the last minutes."Business Daily

Analysts, here we go again... Who are these analysts? Don't they work for the same broker firms & investment banks trying to boost the market to improve their earnings.
Let their friends play it for Wanjiku is too busy thinking how to buy the next packet of unga let alone paraffin...

Aren't this the same analysts who've been advising to stay away from equity & go debt coz of inflation? They can blow my J for all I care. I've said it before, do ur own thinking, it is in better order to sign ur own success (or death) certificate smile in this business.

There is nothing British nor American about this very Kenyan company! For this reason alone, I will not invest in it. It is time we decolonized our minds!! Na tujivunie kuwa wakenya!!!

Let's see... Do these analysts work for D&B? - Remember Jimnah has 20% of BAICL...

...now in the 4th day, are there any enthusiasms at brokers offices. I was at NIC city centre and did not see any Britak IPO form neither did I meet anybody there filling or returning the form

Most of us are last minute people. I doubt if they are also in a hurry to sell.

I was at CFC,i was shocked even not to see them busy. Usually during IPO's it's a nightmare for them. Even i am starting to think this BritishAmerican IPO is going to be undersubscribed.
