For iCap shareholders who want to sell, take advantage of the situation by queuing at high price as close as possible to NAV, or even at a premium.

Why?
1. Despite being redflagged on governance and lousy fund management/policy in i3 forum on daily basis, COL is still buying.
2. Since COL keeps buying even the row with the fund manner, it means they need to buy, so take advantage when demand is there.
3. If someone is bidding for the rights to slaughter our goose and if lucky we get a fair portion of the egg but none after that, wont you want a premium to it? So never sell at a discount price.

Buying icap now is like buying the stocks in their portfolio at 25-30% discount.
that includes KGB, SAM, PADINI, Capital-A.
As long you have business owner mindset instead of traders.

When compare Jtiasa to others such as SOP , UTDPLANT, THPLANT, asides from CPO production, should we also factor in their potential land value when transform to non-agri-land?
As I am aware, Jtiasa most CPO is at Pulau Bruit, Dont think it can be turn into a commercial town or something.

Comparing CPO Yield per mature Ha
Jaya tiasa 3.3
UTD Plantation 6.0
Bumitama 4.0
Thplant and SOP after deducting the external source, is around 2.8

How UTDPlant able to have such high yield?

Previously you mentioned UTDPlant has train track, does it mean UTD is more efficient in harvesting and Jayatiasa is actually not able to harvest 100%?

if you have a long term target with 100% upside, not recommended to trade short term.
If you are right, you make just additional 10-20%
if you are wrong, you might miss 100% on opportunity cost as its very hard for trader to buy at higher price than what they sell.

Jayatiasa should start stingless bee farm, which require minimal investment:
> bee hive cost rm100 in unit (basically consist of wood plank
> bee work for free, and they only required unpolluted environment, which jayatiasa huge forrestry also has that
> bee hive management and harvesting is also not labour intensive
On top of that
> bee increase pollination of plants, which is good for environment.

Here's an article on RH Bee Farm (RH stands for rimbunan hijau, mother company of Jayatiasa)
https://vulcanpost.com/742509/kelulut-stingless-bee-honey-farm-malaysia/
" Currently, R H Bee Farms has less than 20 beekeepers with over 7,000 bee hives, whereas Bayu Kelulut has 4,000 bee hives. Both these farms are supported by MARDI and MATRADE in R&D and overseas market penetration respectively. As of now, both these farms export to Asian countries like China, Hong Kong, Japan, Taiwan, and Singapore."

@zhuge I dont think fair to compare icap with berkshire, berkshire has the whole world to invest. Warren is also another level compare to icap.

What the fund manager want to buy sell is according to his investment style. There are hundreds of funds in malaysia, you tell me how many funds can keep 50% cash for so long yet grow the NAV at this rate.

@zhuge

Doing share buy back increase overall fund exposure to portfolio holdings. fund managers has their own strategy in managing exposure, else he would have bought more of certain stocks with all the idle cash.

If you believe a CEF should do buy back whenever its trading below NAV, go set up a CEF togather with Dumbmoney, and in the prospectus state whenever the fund is trading NAV, the manager is obligated to do buy back. Then we can compare your fund performance in shareholder equity vs icap.

From google: Eucalyptus trees are known to attract bees due to their abundant and nectar-rich flowers. The nectar produced by the flowers is high in sugar and has a distinct taste, which makes it a favorite of many bee species.

From Jaya tiasa website : Fast-growing tree species such as Eucalyptus Deglupta (Kamarere), Eucalyptus Pellita and Kelampayan were planted across the plantation areas and the average survival rate of the planted seedlings was above 90 %.

Rimbunan Hijau is breeding kelulut bee for honey in forest concession. (google RH kelutut honey and RH bee farm)

Jaya tiasa has huge forest concession. So is there breeding of kelutut within their forest concession yet not reported?
The CPO and timber business value is just like peanuts if compare to honey.
CPO is MYR4000/MT aka RM4/kg
Kelutut honey retail is RM120/kg ! even 70% off for wholesale would be RM40/kg

I asked before during AGM, wrote in email, but no reply on the matter.

the biological asset fair value loss of ~(30M) is ignorable since its from timber.

Wondering why is the company not paring down debt, can save 20M a year in interest. Do they buy into bitcoin? LOL!

@Sslee is it accurate measurement by looking at ASK cost/Revenue, as ASK could include maintenance cost, and the company is actively bringing back more non-operating aircraft into operation (which incurred maintenance fee, but not yet revenue).

@observatory When you have a 400 million fund in control, many small cap companies will come knock on your door for "collaboration". You dont even have to wait for NAV increase to makes money, even NAV decrease can makes you handsome money.
But it do depends on what level of responsibility do you hold towards the fund investor.

Why is there selling even now? there could be many reasons:
- short term trader. why YTL power got people sell from rm1 - rm3?
- taking profit. if you accumulate at rm2 few months ago, you are sitting on 40% gain.
- investor needs cash, many icap long term investor are above certain age.

The AUS professor shows COL do BUY/SELL on icap, not pure buying, though the net is buying. You can put yourself on COL shoe and think how you can get the most out of icap as an investor whom goal is not to have a ride as long as possible with the fund manager (vs majority retail investor who want the ride with fund manager).
