[quote=VituVingiSana]Robert Crandall, former CEO of American Airlines: "I've never invested in any airline. I'm an airline manager. I don't invest in airlines. And I always said to the employees of American, 'This is not an appropriate investment. It's a great place to work and it's a great company that does important work. But airlines are not an investment." Keep in mind, Robert Crandall isn't just another stock picker or analyst. He's a former airline executive who has won countless awards for his work in the airline industry. If he doesn't believe airlines are investable, how should we? http://www.fool.com/inve...-wont-make-you-ric.aspx[/quote] Where's a credible source?? In the meantime, those who invested in Airline stocks in the US realized an average of +300% gain in the last three years! Knowledge is contagious...Infect truth!

He made a huge loss on KQ and that makes him insist that the firm cannot turn a corner.. Today KES 6.50 will print. We are taking off!!! :) COOP, IMH, KEGN, KQ, MTNU

I can't buy enough shares to own 25% to influence any NSE firm so I will remain a minority shareholder who relies on the Board/Management to do the right thing. Greedy when others are fearful.

True to it and I suspect cooking of figures amongst other things. Post 579.. Blast from the past COOP, IMH, KEGN, KQ, MTNU

Mr ngunze and Alex told you this company is worth negative ksh 4 per share. Why is it still trading. NSE ? CMA ? In the world of securities, courage and patience become the supreme virtues after adequate knowledge and a tested judgment are at hand.
