What would you call SBK?

Cat!

in boots?

Depends on your time surely. Up over 240% in my club watchlist - sure its over a while and others have kicked its butt. But still. I rather have SBK and FSR, very simply cause I bank with them, so at least I get something back from a dividend - ultra basic and maybe not the best.

Honestly guys - the banks have been dogs for 30 years. Stop listening to the analysts that keep telling you to buy "their" shares. How can they be exciting? They are what they are.

Capitec?

[THRESHOLD]

Capitec was not (and largely still "is not") a full-blown bank. Her growth stemmed from the boring nature of the mainstream banks. A somewhat arbitrary and certainly spurios comment, RAMs.

[THRESHOLD]

spurious - check before posting.

[Rams]

yours or mine?

[THRESHOLD]

Yours - pretty much always are.

[THRESHOLD]

Oh - and I meant "dog" not dog. It's all relative.

[Rams]

you think too much...and your bias just permeates your analysis... now you are insulting the banks... and to top it all, you call Capitec a quasi bank and a "dog"!

[sponono]

All you have to do is check the 52 week high list for banks and you will find FSR and RMH consistently. ASA is up 10% YTD RMB and FSR 30 STXFINI 20%

And you, as always, can't read the facts. Probably because you think too little. I never called the banks dogs, the thread originator did. I said "dogs." Clearly indicating that I differ. As for what I said about Capitec - how do you come up with this nonsense? As for bias - thinking too mutch implies an attempt overcome such factors. Try thinking, RAMs - you might find you enkoy it. Hell - you may even be good at it.

[THRESHOLD]

In fact - READ - I said CAPITEC is different and hence not a "dog." Wake up boetjite. This isn't even fun if you can't follow the argument. And we want it to be FUN!

[THRESHOLD]

Incidentallw - what is this story about thinking too much? I assume it is about traders vs investors again. A trader thinks ahead of his moves. He still has to think. There is no "too much."

While we are on banking, did Merchantile delist?

[kwagga]

I wouldn't exactly call SBK a dog. They have got a lot going for them elswhere in the world while all the rest of the local banks fight over the SA bone. http://business.iafrica.com/personal-finance/banking/801431.html
