How comes Britam shares are plunging if they are financially stable this much?

Price on the Stockmarket and Value are mutually exclusive. This is an observation not a comment on Britam's price to value.

Search for "Golden Handcuffs" by @ hisa, in the thread of "eliott wave". He saw the crash coming almost one year ago. Sell now because 12 is coming.

There is potential for NSE to make one more dramatic move up. I'll post charts this weekend.
Conventional thinkers waste time building shelters when they are unnecessary and then have no shelters when they need them the most. Socionomists do the opposite.

12/- is good. I wouldn't mind getting in at 12/- as long as the exposure to Bramer is contained. As an insurer, they are #1 in EAC or so it seems.

I believe so in EAC [or greater EAC] but it's a close race with Jubilee. I remain a fan of Jubilee. Perhaps Jubilee has more (large) business but Britam is the Equity of Insurance with branches and agents all over the EAC countries.

Jubilee covers the assets while Chartis handles goods in transit cover. APA covers KAA/JKIA.. Further, KQ paid USD 100,000 each for every dead passanger on the Abidjan & Doula flights.. Information is power

@vvs. caution on the allure of britam. I wouldn't exactly describe their management as trustworthy. They need to win shareholder trust back after last year and this year scandals. I refuse to accept that they were innocent bystanders in the cyton and rawat drama. Even if they were not involved, it tells us something about them. Or I'm I just being paranoid???

Add the issue of them reinstating earnings early this year, Wairegi leaving, Dr. James Mwangi resigning as director etc. All these are not good signs to me.

Wairegi leaving? Pl quote your source (since, their website 'Britam', Wairegi is still the CEO - what could I be missing).
