Rallying on fume volumes. Someone will get trapped.

This share should have dropped further on the news that its sister company (PW) IPO was hugely undersubscribed

@mwekej@ji, on the contrary it should rise on news of PW rights failure, because their holding will not reduce to 34% from 49% as expected following a fully subscribed issue.

Stop loss at times works better than averaging down. I bought NIC at 44 and after the bonus shares never sold at 49. When the prices started falling i sold everything at 42 (no loss incurred) and managed to buy all my sold shares and 20% more at 34.
Now the share is trading at 27 i shall be averaging everything down to 29 as i wait for the rally post 40. Does that make sense, apply the strategies that favour u at the various circumstances..

the issue is your costs. Brokerage to buy at 44 sell at 42 and buy at 34. Thats 6.3% already. You still need to sell to realise your profits, another 2.1%. What are the chances that you will equal or better the market with these costs?

@Gordon Gekko, there are a number of reason KQ was welcoming the dilution. Read post 31 in the following link

http://www.wazua.co.ke/forum.aspx?g=posts&m=219192

Also note that this was an IPO aiming to raise money for fleet modernisation and expansion. They now dont have the money and KQ is not a position to lend them.

I don’t think KQ shareholders are happy to see their sister company in the current predicament
