Equity share is showing interesting Elliott Wave pattern. That, coupled with the fact that James Mwangi is now a celebrity CEO appearing on business magazine covers as well as latching onto a business that is not the mainstay of the bank tells you something quite important.

Chart analysis will be on my 'Elliott Wave Analysis of the NSE 20' thread.
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.

Those who seem fixated on "core business" manenos need to study a few businesses around the world.

General Electric is one such example.

Read about General Electric here

Quote:
GE's divisions include GE Capital, GE Power & Water, GE Oil & Gas, GE Aviation, GE Healthcare, GE Transportation, and GE Home & Business Solutions.

Through these businesses, GE participates in markets that include the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity (e.g. nuclear, gas and solar), lighting, industrial automation, medical imaging equipment, motors, railway locomotives, aircraft jet engines, and aviation services. Through GE Commercial Finance, GE Consumer Finance, GE Equipment Services, and GE Insurance it offers a range of financial services. It has a presence in over 100 countries.


This obsession with "core business" is totally misplaced. Words like Conglomerate and Subsidiary were coined for a good reason!

Of course if not well managed, it could sound a death bell and if well managed it could be one hell of a success story. But so is everything else!!! Including exercise and drinking water!!! Every health worker will tell you to exercise and drink plenty of water, but any of these two can actually kill you! Same in business.

Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

Let panic sellers exit and leave good sitting space we will still take the enemy headon.

So who stands to loose most should Equity's plans succeed ? While M-pesa might receive a hit, its the revolutionary product, M-shwari, that could be hardest hit. Why, because the bulk m-shwari customers, the small savers and borrowers, are traditionally equity customers.

CBA has experienced a level of success in retail banking they could only dream about 2 years ago. Can they let go without a fight?

And this is where it can get dicey for Equity. Its outright suicidal to challenge CBA at this point in time.

Hon.Jamleck is a muranga county homeboy with the Equity top honchos. Why then is he coming out so passionately against his people ?

Sorry, but I just couldn't ignore the political angle.

Kenyans!!! Selling and buying the news!!!

And status quo will change faster than you can say "buy"! Safcom cannot win this thin sim war. All it can be is a nuisance for some time. Soon and very soon, thin sim cards will be overlaid on [mostly] Safcom sim cards. Fact!

A simple daily chart while @mnandii does the wave count chart. That red candle that formed after the reversal from 63 to close at 55.50 marks a top that will take a while (likely months) to break above!



For now support is between 50 - 52 level. If the price closes below the 50day SMA @48 the next target will be the 200day SMA @39. At which point it will mean that the 63 all time high print will take a 1yr or more to be retested!?

@hisah....Will you be kind enough to post a similar analysis for CIC?
IF YOU EXPECT ME TO POST ANYTHING POSITIVE ABOUT ASENO, YOU MAY AS WELL SIT ON A PIN

I don't think SCOM will go down without a good fight...SCOM has shown they can fight...remember the SCOM-Airtel price wars which led to the current cheap calling tariffs people are enjoying?...Airtel lost that bruising battle with a bloody nose...only danger for Equity is when losses from Equitel will start feeding through the income statement if they don't manage to dislodge SCOM...overall good times ahead for consumers as for shareholders I don't know smile

Equity has brought banking to their customers through their phones and banking will be affordable, convinient and accessible courtesy of Equity and Equitel.Money transfer will become affordable. We will have gained freedom to manage our money at the comfort of our phones and on top of that we use the line to make calls etc.

Equitell is 70% mobile money. That explains Safaricoms reaction. Like I said earlier, safaricom will not get KO-ed but they will certainely take a knock!
