One can subjectively selected data to say whatever they want. List for all the banks you normally track in the other thread and their percentage increase or decrease and then tell us what you are trying to say.

You can't pick 3 out 10 banks and try to push a certain narrative while totally ignoring the other 7 surely unless you trying to be dishonest.

I saw Equity Bank price projection of Kshs. 98 by Q1, 2026. Hype!

What am I learning from subjectively selected data which is an outlier

You make a generic statement about an industry and then selectively pick data for 3 and ignore data for 7 to prove what exactly??
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

https://www.citizen.digital/business/equity-group-ceo-james-mwangi-addresses-mass-layoffs-n363709


Dr. Mwangi was speaking during the release of the bank's quarter one results, where the lender's earnings dropped to Ksh.15.4 billion on the back of high inflation and currency depreciation in South Sudan.

In the period ending March, the lender saw customer deposits increase by 7 percent to Ksh.1.32 trillion, allowing them to disburse Ksh.804.7 billion in credit, a 3 percent increase.

In the first quarter of the year, the Kenyan business showed strong recovery, outpacing the regional businesses in key metrics, contributing 53% to the lender's deposit growth, 52 percent growth to the loan book, and 51 percent to revenue growth among others.

“South Sudan is going through a very difficult period, with the stoppage of exports of oil and as a result its currency has significantly lost value against the US dollar and the Kenya shilling, so inflation has been high,” noted Dr. Mwangi.

“What has happened is there is an inflationary reporting that we did last year which contributed Ksh.3 billion but this year the inflation has remained stable so there is nothing to register in South Sudan. So it's not that profit has gone down it's up by 8 percent but when you add the inflation accounting last year in South Sudan it looks like it has gone down by 4%.”

Dull or lack lustre trading this year for banking stocks based on slow Q1.
Capital gains may not be a good approach
nonetheles dividend income is assured.
.
THOUGH
Capital gain opportunity exists for
HFCK and possibly I&M based on their Q1 2025 performance .

Given the ailing economy, flat line returns in the banking sector indicate resilience. Most other sectors including your favoured real estate are currently offering declining returns.

We are about to experience Friedman's interest rate fallacy, identifying tight money with high interest rates and easy money with low interest rate. Will banks lend more when NPLs are inching closer to 18%?

What are the profitable investment opportunities balanced with risk at that 9.75% rate? Ordinary kenyans obtain credit at >1% per month so most prudent will now go into liability management which means pay down debt aggressively which effectively removing money from circulation. @obiero has given the first example, using his coop dividends to pay his expressway liabilities instead of re-investment.

Haha. Zero debt mzee wangu. I am approaching retirement. Meanwhile as Bill Graham pointed out, when the treasury bill/bond rates rise, the stock market falls and the reverse applies. This is a global truth. Thank me later
