nothing is easy. the best trader maximise their profit but cut their losses. nobody says i can predict 100%. just like the fund houses. they try to average their bets

it takes courage & guts to cut your losses ( not everybody has the stomach to accept it) most people will most likely hang on to this stocks and hopping (pray) for a turnaround

Semenyih area is prime land ready for next growth. IJM, Mah Sing, Sunway , IOI already zoom in and around area (south of KL) possibilities of next high growth
KL Cheras Sentral (south area) getting too expensive. TARC relocating their city campus to Sg Long. Maybe Developer's idea zoom in before Semenyih get too pricey

last qtr result - O&G counters hit by slump in oil prices. Crude oil is now trading at around USD 55-USD 60 price range. hopefully this will result in improved market sentiment.

opportunity ? timing is very important whether you buy or sell.but unfortunately in Malaysia ( short selling in Bursa is on the rope- meaning only for the selected few )
borrowing to invest (is not encouraged) but during a bull run everything is feasible. when the market is down invest within your own means. no matter how the market turns. you have the holding power unlike those who trade on margin.

timing is very important. inari rights comes at a time where negative sentiment prevails. people generally do not want to cough up money during bad times. this is my take on what ill's inari pricing.
market sentiment might turned if BNM suddenly hike up rates to stop ringgit outflow. hopefully, crude oil prices will recover and slowly trend up ( that will stop our ringgit going south)

most (if not all players ) are sitting on paper losses. whether you enter in November or December. the market were sold down irrespective whether banking or construction. everything got whacked.
just sit tight and hope oil prices recover and our Federal Government do the right (correct) market stimulus. Opps! not giving out money under so called BRIM
reduce taxes and encourage FDI interest (irrespective whether Chinese , Japanese, US) It's takes years to attract investors but a just a jingle of wrong signals. they run faster than a porsche

the sharp drop in Crude oil prices will have a material impact of Malaysia fiscal consolidation. poor sentiment on Malaysia over reliance on Crude Oil further dampened investor sentiment
the flight of FDI was further compounded by the strenght in the green back (which most traders believes that the US will raise their rates in 2nd half of 2015)
BNM has not raise their rates (their hands are tied) but other countries has move up their rates ( i.e.to attract FDI funds) this is the main reason why we seen the ringgit sliding against most currencies plus the outflows of funds from our market.
if we are not careful hyper inflation will further set in. you can expect substantial jump in price of goods (blaming currencies) with the GST implementation in April.

2014-12-10 09:20 | Report Abuse
any sharp & sustain drop on the index(KLCI) is bad for anyone. FDI funds withdrawal and pulls out will have an impact on our country's fiscal structure. banking and currency will be the fist to be affected. rates will raise and currency (ringgit) depreciate against major currencies.
inflation will creep up but our earnings power will be curb (thanks to years of cheap labour done thru imported manpower) if things go from terrible to horrible (we will also see hyper inflation )
we need to be mindful of the GST. what government says might not be reflective on the grounds. all round price increase will hit the men on the street. the government hands will be tied (with FDI funds pulling out). it's not pleasant scenario

Icap was launch when the market KLCI were down at the low end( if i remember correctly ) At that point of time anybody who have invested will make his money.
Icap (TTB) strategy was ride on the upside when the market recover 2-3 years down the road. Nothing wrong but when the market was see-saw between 2008-2009, 2012-2013
Icap was sitting pretty on the cash instead of investing. you can call it conservative but more like playing safe by TTB . Nonetheless, if you like TTb style of investing than go ahead . If you dont like just dont buy Icap. quite straight forward

if Najib can solidify his position during the UMNO assembly. critics will be less critical on the CIMB-RHB merger. hopefully with the ringgit recover from their lows (after the fuel subsidy removal ). better days lies ahead for CIMB.
Maybank , Public Bank and even Ambank prices are much better compared to CIMB. Being a regional banking (CIMB) group has its pro and con. but i believed CIMb has seen its low at $ 5.85
2014-11-25 09:15 | Report Abuse
$ 5.85 is quite a drastic drop from the $6.50- $ 7.00 level (which CIMB were holding) the sell-down might due to foreign funds ( re-balancing ) ahead of their year end.
bad news has already factor in plus all the bashing on Nazir (tends to relate more on Najib) political fortunes rather than synergies of RHB -CIMB merger. this is my personal assessment
2014-11-25 09:09 | Report Abuse
personally CIMB is a well managed GLIC entity. the recent selldown is partly caused by the outflow of foreign funds. CIMB has high foreign funds holdings.
do not expect flattering reports on Malaysian companies by our neighbouring south. generally they like to bash our co's whenever an opportunity arise. in business there is no fair play award but only the bottom line counts.

silly idea to rationalize (subsidy) usage using mykad ID. open to more abuse using the so called quota on petrol/diesel. big difference between urban and kampung living. blanket discrimination against city folks who relies on their own transport in urban areas.
whoever design the so called plans can expect fat returns(fee) from the mykad system by the government. look at Singapore, Indonesia, Brunei or Australia none have this petrol scheme.
if we are not careful. government might used the mykad as their alternate means to discriminate certain strata (communal group). with no intentions to hurt any body feeling (i.e.reading this blog)
the government can say only this group of mykad (qualify) pump petrol (cheaper price )at this station. others can on pump petrol at higher price. we already have quota on housing , intake on university , government permits etc.
it will be a sad day for all Malaysian if we are also divided between the basic bread and butter items (e.g. like pumping petrol or diesel ) There is no stopping (or holding back)the government of the day from implementing further measure.

most accountants (not 100%) but the big chunk of these people are so mundane in their lives that they only look at their own field doing back tracking, charts, business valuations or cash flow. never looking at the bigger picture outside their scope of work.
if ever you ask this block (accountants) of people to start a new business (on their own) and compete with businessmen. 90% of this people (block of accountants ) will cease or close the new business venture between 1-2 years. where as the other group of businessmen close to 50% of them will prevail at their business
the accountants are good only at their field but throw them in the sea . maybe 55 or 10% can survived.

TA as a stand alone is losing ground to the bank back securities firm. trading has changed over the years. more and more people are switching to internet trading ( lower commission )
tony will want to exit TA and concentrate on his property (but at his own price) TA used to command a big chunk of the retail market but sadly alot of the big timers has switch to other firms.

benalec like any other construction counters are affected by the recent sell down. most contra players and short term players are equally affected. only the blue chips are holding quite well ( eg CIMB )even if the quater's result is good the players may have cash out to take advantage of the sell down and lock in their profit. traditionally august-september is not a good month to trade ( there is always an exception) good luck

property value relies on location and demand. KL property generally is on the higher end. a lot of properties on the suburbs are mark up above the true market value. easy borrowing or easy credit is one of the factor we need to look into. property hype on high returns also contributed to the euphoria

prices may not reflex the actual net worth of the company. the company
may be great ( rich in assets valuations ) but the controlling shareholders are deem too conservative or the free float is limited )
the price may not moved and you need to hold on to this type of counter for a long time. there is no right or wrong in any style of investing ( as long trade you trade within your means )
the mega bank merger between CIMB-RHB- MBSB is a good case studies. with a bigger balanced sheet. the enlarged bank will have ample opportunities for more acquisition. CIMB is down but RHB is up. ?
