I maintain that I'm yet to see a share on the NSE sink so fast...from being one of the darlings of the bourse to flirting with liquidation. I don't think paunrana exited the stage without his pound(s) of flesh, so what might be left is a shell of company more so if you consider the less than forthright books of accounts.
I think so too. Common phenomenon with business men coming from the 44th tribe. Really, how bad was the decision to go to Tz? Some fish smells big here
My worst losses have been:
KQ - under Naikuni and Mbugua [Both had zero-neglible shares in KQ and "retired" wealthy. I hope MJ and SM can lead turn it around]
Olympia - Matu [Still screwing shareholders]
Kenya Finance Bank - Nyammo (& friends)
ADSS -
Deacons - Wahome [Not many shares but huge % loss]
KCB - Kaminchia and Bii [then Gareth, Davidson and MOO were recruited who resuscitated it]
KK - Segman [A roller coaster. Good recovery under Ohana]
ARM - Paunrana [Though this was a recent purchase while he was on his way out]
I had zero-neglible shares when these firms had a severe downturn:
Uchumi - Kirubi (& cronies/appointees)
Transcentury - Kiuna
Home Afrika - Nganga
Mumias - Kidero and Kibati
Britam - Wairegi
Eveready - Merali
Sameer - Merali
HF - Ireri
NBK -
KPLC - Gichuru + Njoroge + Chumo [I finally sold out as I started dumping GoK firms]
EAPCC - [Naikuni is a director!

]
I have no idea which tribe is represented above
Best returns:
KK - Segman [but then it went downhill] and Ohana
Unga - Hutchinson [though I expect better!]
I&M (via City Trust) - Shah [a multi-bagger though it has lagged since 2016]
Equity - Mwangi
Centum - Mworia [though it has retraced recently]
Jubilee - Juma [I regret selling the bulk of my shares]
Access - Somen [bought at the IPO, sold when the price jumped, bought again when the price fell huge, sold at +50% during the takeover]
Safaricom - Collymore [I didn't buy more except for the IPO until BC became the CEO]
DTB - Devji
Crown - Rao [but too few shares to be meaningful]
ScanGroup - Thakrar [Bought at the IPO and sold out]
I have no idea which tribe is represented above
Breakeven:
NIC - Macharia [the huge 7bn+ NPL hobbled NIC's growth trajectory. This came to light after Macharia left. I remain a shareholder.]
KenRe - Mwarania [though it has retraced in 2018]
