@Maka bona watukubusha hizo zida za KQ. I bought in Sep 07 at 72 and watched price drop to 20s around May 2009. However lucky for me I disembarked when price rose to 46 in Oct 2010 booking looses of 36%. Lucky for me this was on low volumes of 1K shares so I lost only 26K. I used the proceeds of 46K to buy DTB at 119 and have never regretted that decision.

My first story with KQ was sweet I had only bought 1K shares in 2004 at average of 17 and sold in 2005 at 79 a piece booking 364% gains or KES62K, sadly this was just a small trade I had made.

So my net gain in KQ for the 2 trades come to 62-27=35K.

@Sparkly, I already divested from KQ into DTB. As I had explained, the first stock trade in NSE to make me real money was KQ. With 364% gains in less than 2 years, I thought I was a genius. But later on I thought I could be twice lucky which went the other way and lost 36% of the capital. DTB trade was awesome, I disembarked in 2011 and bought "buroti maguta maguta". Stocks are fun and currently I am slowly accumulating SCB mainly for dividends.
