Hi Guys.
Av been wondering on whether this stock is worth holding to until the split or i dispose it off...cant come to a conclusion. I believe it wont trade even a single trade at 16 bob (I could be wrong).
Any views,opinions,arguments,analysis and clues are very welcome.
...We do it for the $$$$!!

I have never dealt with splits before but I think the prices will go up in the next two weeks...come 30th May people will sell off...just my opinion.

Barclays is fond of splitting its share. For what reason, i dont know!

Read Richard Etemesi's comments, might be an indicator on what to expect from SCB.

things are not looking gud 4 bbk, their momentum has gone down n they now seem to be focusing on mortgage which they hope wil stop th excess hemorrhage. kcb will definitely topple bbk as n.o 1 in terms of profitability, hands down!!
as 4 the split, i will hold my shares n speculate

trizher, I think the counter might see increased activity in the run-up to the split date. Just my opinion. I hold no share in this company.

No way! Equity Bank may make it to #1 in 2011 but I doubt KCB can beat BBK just yet! [Even though BBK is "Kenya Only" & KCB is regional]

Though Barclays' time on the throne is nearing its end, it should not be forgotten that as VVS says, it is Kenya based only, yet it has been whooping others with regional banks over the years

No one is decided on BBK this time round, I think it will take the cue from KCB which gave a bonus and did slide by much..i will speculate and buy some.

Any chance of KCB issuing an interim dividend this time around at H1?

Why? There is no gain and there is the added costs of processing the dividend.

dividend issuance is always a cost item in the company books, however, shareholders must be kept happy and an interim div may be a huge possibility
