I thought 51 was an error,only to confirm several trades. "Don't let the fear of losing be greater than the excitement of winning."

I now join @Obiero on the sidelines as a former passenger of this bus. Congratulations  how long was the journey @sparkly? @sparkly, Congratulations, i still have some lot when do you think the music will stop? Why ask former passengers when the driver is here. The music is not about to stop, let this takeover first happen. After that i still wouldn't sell. Britam may eventually buy everything at an even higher price. Unless you are afraid of making money hold! Of course between now and then it may go up down abit sideways, but the direction is up. If your speculating, this may not work for you. @aguy thanks wacha tuendelee @Muganda boarded the bus mid 2012. Took some profits at 24 and at 33 and also enjoyed the half-yearly divs. @Richie hard to tell when the music will stop. My original target was 28 which i hit and surpussed. Time to look for other diamonds in the rough. @Aguy @Murchr the bus is now in your able hands. I am now strapping my seat elsewhere. HFCK is now trading at an 'engineered' price.. Caution is advised here In a proper bull, HF,Britam and Centum will be trading at trailing PEs of 30,40 even 50.At one point, in 2006,with an EPS of 0.51 and at a price of 45,HF was trading at a PE of 88  Now do the math. @aguy i hope you're reading this. @SufficientlyP

But who cares, as long as it feels good putting money in your pocket I intend to disembark at 50 . I hope the price is achieved tomorrow. It was one fruitful trip. Trouble is how to identify the next good bus!

Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

Should I give in to temptation??? 50/= too tempting!!! Kuvumilia ni kazi kweli!!! Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

I'm already in, albeit at a higher price, I think its a sound business I can hold on for longer, I will average down.... another not very popular concept with the gurus.

The company being "acquired" has some value in it that the other company lacks or needs. A win-win for Britam and the Equity. Britam gets a stable but growing investment into which they can invest long term pension and life insurance funds. Equity gets to harvest its investment in HF, to re-invest in other market beating ventures. Remember venture capitalists own close to 50% of Equity. Life is short. Live passionately.
