That ranking is considerably scrambled, however, when our attention turns to a Week-on-Week performance pattern, as shown below:
1) NSE 25 Index: Up 0.86%
2) FTSE NSE Kenya 25 Index: Up 0.70%
3) NASI (NSE All Share Index): Up 0.53%

Thursday, December 16th, 2021.
CBshare's upward drift continued. Its price closed marginally higher (by 0.08%), at KES 2,263.13 (or US$ 20.04, at the forex rate of KES 112.92 per US$). Its ranking nevertheless fell from second to fourth, as we see below:

Unashig's market capitalization also rose by 0.08%, closing at KES 7,359,942.50 (or US$ 65,178.38). On a YTD basis, it closed 32.37% higher. Since December 31st, 2019, it has made a 334.89% gain.
From the empirical evidence seen throughout this year, one thing is clear. The capacity of both CBshare and Unashig's market capitalization to gain significant value and generally outperform the market will continue to depend on the zeal with which Unashig's shareholders add to their CBshare holdings. So let's see some "value added" enthusiasm in the coming year.

CBshare price rose another 0.21% to close at KES 2,261.27 (or US$ 20.02, at the forex rate of KES 112.95 per US$). This performance raised it from fifth to second when ranked against the usual NSE indices -- all of which closed on a positive note as well, as we see below:

Tuesday, December 14th, 2021.
Today was the first trading day of the week, Monday having been a public holiday associated with Jamhuri Day (which this year fell on Sunday, 12/12/2021). CBshare price made a 0.16% gain, to close at KES 2,256.54 (or US$ 19.98, at the forex rate of KES 112.95 per US$). Some CBshares were bought today. This had a mesure of positive effect on the day's results for Unashig; but more would have been merrier, as there is still much ground to recover.
