WHY IS DIVIDEND IMPORTANT?
Dividend is important for many reasons. The most important reason has been explained a chapter earlier on, that is, dividend is the only benefit which a shareholder can obtain from a company under the normal circumstances. Profit, per se, is hardly of any use to him directly and the assets are only of value if the company is liquidated which is unlikely in a great majority of cases. Apart from this reason, dividend is important for the following reasons:
1) Dividend is a sure thing.
All too often, investors and speculators pay too much attention to profit forecast. It is amazing that so many malaysian companies have the courage to make profit forecast for many years into the future. What is even more amazing is that so many of the investors seem to believe these forecasts absolutely. It is difficult to make a profit forecast a year ahead, let alone five years or even ten years. Such profit forecasts can only be regarded as extremely shaky.
Let us take a recent example. During 1981, when the "property injection game" was at its height, many of the companies which were first getting into property development business gave very rosy forecasts of future earnings potential, as a result the price of these shares naturally went up to tremendous heights. Since then, the housing market softened considerably and the office rental market has declined 40-50 per cent. In just three years, the profit picture of just about all land development companies has changed considerably. I wonder how many of those forecasts made in 1981 can still stand up to scrutiny today.
Dividend is real and it is something which the shareholders can put to some use. Most companies keep dividend at a level they can afford to pay out irrespective of whether it is a good or bad year and is hence a great deal more certain than profit forecast.
2) Dividend provides a link with reality.
When the market is truly 'hot', few of us can keep truly rational and we tend to be swept along in the general atmosphere of optimism. But the dividend yield of a share keeps us in close touch with the real world. As in the earlier example of OCBC, anyone who keeps his eye on the dividend yield of that share would have realised that the price level was totally unreal. Most people would agree that at a dividend yield of 0.4 per cent it would be better to sell a share and invest the proceed in houses or leave the money in fixed deposit.
In the established stock markets of the world, the dividend yield (ie dividend per share/price per share) usually has a steady relationship with the fixed deposit and its interest rate. It is normal for dividend yield to fluctuate at around 1/3 to 1/2 of the long-term deposit interest rate. This means that when fixed deposit interest is around 10 per cent per annum, stock should sell at a price to provide a yield of 3 per cent to 5 per cent. Taking a look at the yield provided by local shares during bull markets, the dividend yield is usually so low as to be meaningless. Futhermore, one should not forget that fixed deposit of 15 months or longer and fixed deposits in National Savings Bank are interest free in Malaysia while dividend has a witholding tax of 40 per cent applied at source.
3) Dividend provides a 'floor' for shares during bear markets.
Stock markets of the world, especially the Malaysian/Singaporean market is not readily predictable. They can collapse so easily into a 'bear pit' with little warning. If we wished to protect our hard earned capital, we must be defensive in our investment approach. One of the best defense is to buy shares with reasonable dividend yield (i.e. a yield of between 1/2 of deposit interest rate). If we buy a share because it pays a reasonable dividend, our loss is likely to be small even during periods of sharp market decline.
For example, we can buy a share which pays 30 cents dividend at Rm5.00 a share and this gives us a dividend yield of 6 per cent. If the share market goes into a sharp decline, the amount this share can fall to is limited by the fact that it pays a 30 cents dividend. If the price is to fall to as low as Rm3.00, it will be giving a dividend yield of 10 per cent which is about as good as what one can get from fixed deposit but with the additional opportunity to capital gain thrown in.
Most people can see that at that price, the share is probably a good bargain and it is therefore unlikely to fall any lower. It has been my experience that with the exception of mining counters, a dividend yield of 12 per cent seems to be the floor below which most stocks will not drop. In sharp contrast, shares which pay low or no dividend at all do not seem to have any bottom and price decline can hit 90 per cent or more.
4) Dividend yield prevents investors from being side-tracked by irrelevant events.
The Malaysian/Singaporean stock market can be characterised by a large number of events which are of little real benefit to the existing shareholders and yet which excite them greatly. I am referring to the large number of bonus announcements, rights issues, property injections, take-overs, and mergers which have made their appearance in recent years. Most of these events are of little, if any, real economic benefit to the existing shareholders of the companies involved.
Despite this, the price of the shares of a company involved in an event of this nature tends to rise sharply. Later chapters will explain in detail why these events are, in the main, irrelevant and some of them may even be damaging.
For the moment, let us consider the following. According to the dividend yield approach to share valuation, a share can have increased value only if there is a likelihood that its dividend will rise faster than originally expected. We ask ourselves in what way events like bonuses, rights, mergers and re-organisations in themselves can improve the future dividend picture of a company. If these events cannot lead to such an increase, the share surely does not deserve a higher valuation.
It is hoped that readers are, by now, at least partially convinced of the wisdom of buying a share for its dividend. In later chapters, the range of dividend yields which is reasonable for different categories of shares will be examined. In the meantime, I leave you with a short ditty that has been popular for years in the US and is still often quoted as advice to first time share buyers.
A cow for its milk,
Bees for their honey,
And shares, by golly,
For their dividend.
The above passage is taken from the book "STOCK MARKET INVESTMENT" in Malaysia And Singapore
By Dr . Neoh Soon Kean of Dynaquest Sdn Bhd (pp 148 to 150) Published in year 1985.
Calvin comments:
According to Dr. Neoh, "A dividend yield of 12 per cent seems to be the floor below which most stocks will not drop".
In the Deepest Depth of the Lehman Brothers' Crisis after Bear Sterns & Lehman Brothers both gone bankrupt Warren Buffet bought into the safety of Goldman Sachs' Preference shares with guaranteed 10% yield.
One Stock with potential for a Huge Coming Windfall Dividend is OPCOM
Why is it so?
Answer:
Because OPCOM already secured a whopping Rm300 millions Job Awards which will translate to 30 Sen profit. Since OPCOM already Cash Rich with Rm37 millions in hand the bulk of the extra profits will be paid out as a Special Dividend.
Calvin tells all to load up on OPCOM for the coming good dividends.
Last round when OPCOM secured Rm359 millions project award it later gave out a 22.5 sen Special dividend & followed by another 12.5 sen dividend next year

14/05/2017 13:35
Haha! You must have myopic eyesight? I think I am much older than you old man?
Read these words,
My primary focus is On UNDERVALUE STOCK FIRST & FOREMOST. Dividend is the by product. Yes, very good. No? Never mind as long as I BUY INTO VALUE. Warren Buffet Berkshire Hathaway never give out dividend. Dividend is taxable. So Warren thinks just keep all the (dividends) INSIDE THE COMPANY AND LET IT GROW FOR AS LONG AS POSSIBLE TO MAXIMISE MAXIMUM GAINS.
Read again these words,
"My primary focus is On UNDERVALUE STOCK FIRST & FOREMOST.
So dividend is not the first criteria. DRB is very good even though it does not give out dividend like Opcom. You better don't miss this

gohkimhock when we talk about dividend here, we are talking about the yearly dividend. Not those one off special dividend. This one off special dividend mostly come from disposal of assets and it won't be repeated the next year. It is meaningless.
We all should look for companies which are not expensive and keep on paying handsomely dividend. Thank you HlHai-O.

So better buy Opcom, Dutaland, BPuri, Bj Corp & PBA NOW! Yes NOW!!
And after Opcom, Dutaland, BPuri & Bj Corp jumped over Rm1.00 you won't see Calvin shouting anymore. But I can't stop "future experts" telling you to buy Opcom, Dutaland, BPuri, Bj Corp & PBA because they say "the sky is the limit" then "in the future".

I admit being too cautious when I saw Trump in power. I thought export stocks might be hit hard.
Then I saw KcchongNz picked Latitude
And Stockraider picked Focus Lumber
So I took another look at Pohuat
These facts I found
1) Pohuat has 2 factories in Vietnam and one factory in Malaysia
2) Vietnam's Real Estate now in Hot Property Boom. So Pohuat should do quite well.
3) I see one Insider is buying Pohuat warrant at 79 sen.
Will Pohuat next quarter result be good?
I think most probably.

You know very well that the so called "RM100 bil debt" are nothing but future capex commitment to be spreaded out over many many years.
But out of jealousy arising from your own underperformance, you cooked up stories to try to drive down Airasia share price
That is why I kept advising you not to do that

I promoted stocks with immediate catalysts.
For Opcom, Dutaland, BPuri, Bj Corp & PBA the catalysts will come in later stages.
Let me illustrate
It takes only slightly more than 2 months for cat to conceive & give birth to kittens. But it takes about 9 months for a human child to be born.
The stocks with catalysts now are GE14 Election stocks like
DNex, DRB/POS & MRCB. Since DNex already up 100% I think DRB & MRCB will run up more.
Will explain Dutaland, BPuri, Bj Corp & PBA later.
I think OPCOM will run first since HTPadu already jumped

Just buy OPCOM & Hold it tightly until Special Dividend is announced.
Sure win (99%) no loss counter (1% black swan even if nuclear war starts)
Also get DRB & MRCB as GE14 Election drawing nearer.
If want to try short term and see how Pohuat result good. Then buy some Pohuat (Power huat)
Pohuat (Power huat) was my chun chun call at Rm1.25. It jumped to Rm3.80 and split (up 200%)

Calvin...need a little guidance...read Opcom QR..red arrows down...still buy buy.
Calvin thinks last quarter result is good for these figures:
1) PPE has increased from 38 mil to 41 mil = Jumped 3 mil
2) Investment in associates from 13 mil to 16 mil = Rm3 mil more
3) Inventories up 3 mil
4) Receivables (hutang from TM) up another 4 millions
So 3 + 3 + 3 + 4 = Rm13 millions increase of Net Worth for OPCOM
So if any careless accountant or stock broker just read on the surface without digging out the details will only see Rm1.2 mil profit or 0.8 sen only. They they will give OPCOM a pass and miss this Gold mine.
Now learn to see NET NET or TOTAL NET WORTH.
From NTA you can SEE that it has gone up from 50 sen to 54 sen
And bottom line also reveal these figures
TOTAL EQUITY AND LIABILITIES: Rm132,728,000 (current) Rm121,317,000 (last time)
So total NET Worth has increased by Rm11.411 Millions (not the miserable Rm1.2 millions as reported)
I see the earnings should be 7.6 Sen & not 0.8 Sen
So think NET NET (not net cash profit only)
Ha! For those who still don't get it let me simplify it ok?
If you earn Rm11,400 a month salary and
buy Rm3,000 value in gold
invest in shares for another Rm3,000
then you pay down your monthly installment in a shop house Rm4,200
How much cash left?
Rm1,200 only
So is your income only Rm1,200 only?
Of course not!
Your total income or net worth consists of
1) Gold
2) Shares you bought
3) Shophouse
4) Cash
So OPCOM total Net Worth has grown by
1) Increase in PPE (Property Plant & Equipment)
2) Receivables (money owed by Telekom) Question is. IsTelekom dependable to pay up?
3) Investment in associates & Inventories
4) CASH (Cash is least needed as OPCOM has over Rm37 millions Cash already)

the only call warrant worth buying are c28 and c30
Calvin thinks Alibiii got it correct:
Buy C28 if you want less gearing but shorter time as it expires on June 2017
Buy C30 but you have to pay a premium as expiry date in in November 2017. This is where hng33 is buying
Both are the best of the call warrants
Call warrants are instrument for leverage. It amplifies gains but can also exacerbate losses due to market fluctuations.
So please be careful.
For now I think DRB is bullish and I am buying a little.
My usual position is to buy the mother and hold long term like 3 to 5 years. And some can hold for 10 years or more

Raymond,
Let's leave out bonus & focus on dividend.
Look at it this way.
When a company makes say, Rm1 million a year. And prospect is good as business will still grow. And it is into something like selling food. It does not need to invest the extra monies like more research & development. See coca cola & wrigley chewing gum have the same taste for a hundred years.
Say the profit keeps coming in year after year.
The profit will cause share price to got up
Say from Rm1.00 to Rm1.20 (if 1 million equals to 20 sen per share)
So if he gives out 20 sen dividend
Share price will be like this
Rm1.20 (after ex dividend price is Rm1.00)
Then next year's Rm1 million profit will add another 20 sen
So Rm1.00 + 20 sen = Rm1.20 again
So this cycle repeats.
If profit can increase then dividend payout will also increase
Examples are Dutch Lady, Harrison, Bplant, TMakmur (taken private)
