You like you buy.
You don't like don't buy.
Simple.
All stocks got pros & cons, good & bad, + & -.
So choose what you like & go after it.

PBB is no fast moving share where you can load up today and unload in a week for a fast gain that punters & traders look out for.
It is a slow and steady stock that offers peace of mind that you don't need to worry, fret and panic over once a disaster or economic downturn occurs.
Different strokes for different folks.

Every 13 years + -, PBB give a bonus issue.
Lest, you are not a shareholder, you would not have enjoyed the last one.

Before being carried away, look at Berkshire.

Warren Buffett not much younger almost 90.
SUPER SUCCESSFUL as they grow Older.

@choysun is correct.

@rickygiam,
GB needs all the money they can grab.
Every cent counts !

In few years, serious traffic jam go up there.
So, GB wants only those spend $$$ go there.

mm,
you are
complaining & condemning
PH govt
constantly, consistently & continuously.

Do you know it is
agst the law
according to MCMC & Polis to complain and condemn
the govt publicly
using public platforms in communicating especially via internet constantly, consistently & continuously.

Refrain from your ways or ......

My opinion position stand take view on ATK

It's my life - Bon Jovi
You raise me up - Josh Groben

@ATK, MC can't stand & take it I praise you.

It is so simple.
You post good info not so easily accessible.
MC post news that is easily found.

Btw, you don't defend until someone attacks
MC just attacks me for praising you.

Like that also got !

When you deserve a praise, I can praise you.

@ATK, why MC so jealous ah ?
Is it because I don't praise him ?

GB is running out of bullets to grow greatly
With growth comes big debts & int charges

Global expansion bears fruit after long time

For this decade, 2020 - 2030,
Taurx is the biggest catch for GB.
If it works GB will not be at 3.8-4.0 range

Major hike & spike.
GB price will fly.
You will laugh your way to your bank.

First, Prof Claude Wischik invented Taurx.
He has been researching this for 30 yrs.
He is on holy grail of AD that will bear fruit.

Second, LKT & Genting invested 20%.
Big, huge & large investment.
They have confidence this will come true.

Third, @ATK is an astute investor & trader.
He invested so much bcos he is sure of it.
ATK waits as he sees light at end of tunnel

Good sharing.

@stkoay, thank you.
You are definitely in a different league.
BGH; better, greater, higher.

KUANTAN: The Bentong Municipal Council (MPB) has issued a stop work order for the alleged construction of a toll gantry near Gohtong Jaya for visitors to the popular hilltop resort Genting Highlands in Bentong.

An MPB source said the stop work order was issued on Wednesday since the developer did not comply to the conditions or seek the approval from the local authorities before works began at the site.

"The developer has to submit a building plan, planning permission and plan consisting details about the piping, and road layout but the submission was incomplete. No permission was given to build the gantry," said the source today.

The source said while MPB was made to understand that the gantry was for the construction of toll booths, the approval to collect toll charges did not come under the council's jurisdiction.

Meanwhile, a state government official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said the operator had not put forward any proposal to introduce a one-way trip toll charge for Genting Highlands-bound holidaymakers.

"If there is such a plan, it should be brought to the attention of the Pahang government including the state government's investment and privatisation department before it is discussed at the state executive council (exco) meeting," he said.

It is learnt that although the proposed toll is built on private land, the Finance ministry and Transport ministry had to be consulted on toll collection.

Yesterday, a Chinese daily reported that motorists travelling to Genting Highlands would soon have to pay toll charges and that Lingkaran Cekap Sdn Bhd, which is in charge of maintaining the roadworks in Genting, would manage the toll's operations.

Pahang Unity, Tourism and Culture Committee chairman Leong Yu Man said the matter had never been discussed during the state executive council meeting.

@stkoay,
there's an anti-bank & anti-MBB fella in Genting Bhd forum who said,

your logic is correct, every investor should be buying up Maybank... why share price kena stuck at 9.. P/B ratio hanya 1.2

Can you clarify whether his statement of MBB P/B ratio only 1.2 is correct ?

Hidden bad debts worrying for Chinese banks, as the sector’s finance is already in a mess, according to The Economist.

It said local governments are struggling to repay lenders at least 65 trillion yuan
(RM42.8 trillion)
in off-balance-sheet debts.

It said many of the country’s big property developers have already defaulted
on offshore bonds and owe
trillions
of yuan-worth of unbuilt homes to local residents.

Country Garden default is all but official, restructuring looms.

Genting's expansion depletes its profits.
Borrowings & interest charges ballooning.
All its investments are accounted for.
Nothing to shout about.

GB won't go far.
Its price range is abt + - 5 to 10% at MAX.
That's abt 20c - 40c only if you can catch it.
Then need to deduct commission chgs, etc.
Slim profit margin unless you get 10%.

Only way out is for its jewel in crown to jump.
Taurx is its ONLY triumph card.
ONLY Taurx may trigger a price hike & spike.

Since 2011,
GB on sliding, slipping & slowing down trend.
Go see the charts.

Company expands by leaps & bounds.
Expands in product & service diversification.
From casino to plantn, theme parks, biotech, etc.
Expands geographically to global ops.
From Msia to Spore, UK, Egypt, US, etc.

Revenues go up.
Profits go up.
Costs go up.
Debts go up.
CEO's salaries at several subsidiaries go uP.

But stk price is dropping, sinking & tanking.

Not forgetting need funding new future ops.
Future native Indian casino ops.
Future Thailand casino 2028 - 2030.

Whatever profits goes to funding new ops.
So, even if valuation is higher,
Debt are even Higher.

So, winner ( major shareholders) takes ALL.

Winning always are major shareholders.

Few retailers win always.
Most win a few times but lose more often.

Chart shows what actually happened.
Charts don't lie.
People lie.

RWLV is saddled with huge debts & int charges.
Listing takes a FEW more years.
Miami sufficient funding full NY casino ops.

Don't look promising.
Unless jewel in crown breaks through.

Only Taurx can catapult GB forward, higher.

@ATK is
A Trading King.

@AngTayKor,
Agree with you.
Charles Freeney - champion forever.

Whoa, what's happening here ?
Bursa rose almost 19 pts.
MBB rose only 9c to 8.89.
PBB rose only 10c to 4.13.
GB reversed & retreated 1c to 4.07.
Where is GB going, up or DOWN ?

NO WORRIES for GB Boss, he always WINS.

Maybe, banks, today UP, tmr DOWN.

@DestinyL, welcome.
Congrats, you made good wins lately.

With highest increase % in price among banks.
Some more, highest div among banks,
Walau Wei, double rewards.
Congrats to all maybankers who bought beginning of year.

@stkoay,
mbb rose highest % this year among banks.

Michaelchan,
YOU don't own and control this forum.

This is not your forum.
You cannot control others when
you don't want others to control you.

mm is beyond mad.
Everyone here knows about abt you.

To buy low: scare people to sell low.
To sell high: spread pos get people buy high.
This tactics is repeated over & over again.

Manipulate people to sell low for you to buy.
Manipulate people to buy high for you to sell.

How do you know I don't know ATK ?
Your assumption is baseless.
You have no idea whether we know each other.
I don't need to reveal anything here.
Your assumption is yours only.
Too bad you claim to know when you don't.
An empty vessel makes the most noise.
Posting 20 a day don't make you boss here.

@ATK is correct.
If praising him for correctness is kiss one's ass,
Then Michael _chan is a total ass.

Professional stock traders all know that we cannot direct the wind but we can adjust our sails.

Excellent point & phrase.
@ATK is a professional.

Some jealous MM & MC either
attack, complain, insult, post nonsense.

Even post fangirl, curry favor, apple polish, flattery accusations.

So stooopid non-stop posting like SSP before.
It's not how many you post in a day, but the content & quality is what matters most.

Posting 10 posts a day doesn't make you an expert or make you more credible or help you become the master of GB forum.

When you post too many times a day, it reveals your shortcomings.
Previous, SSP was the one.
Now, there's a replacement, MC.

If
@ATK,
@choysun,
@DestinyL,
@Sharefisher

run the finance,
the finance will take off.

Praise those who truly deserves it.

Don't praise those who don't deserve it.
Hahaha is one of them.

@AngTayKor is one of a kind.
He has helped many, many times.
He truly deserves praises.

Read, analyze, review, dis/agree, execute.

ATK sharing opinion ONLY.
Like everyone,
maybe right, maybe wrong.

Don't complain, condemn, criticize forever.

ATK should be praised for sharing opinion.
You can ignore ATK's posts if you disagree.

MM, no need to disparage ATK.
You discredit yourself when you attack ATK.

ATK is Really and Truly helpful.
I thank ATK for sharing.

@AngTayKor is correct.

So simple yet don't understand.
GB is a very long-term share.
They keep expanding to grow.
To expand, they need to use alot of money.
So, they take it from profits to reinvest.
And/or take big loans or whatever ways.

By doing this, and with big loans & interests repayments, there is not much profits left.

Also highest CEO pay
(over RM 100+ MILLION)

How you expect high cap appreciation ?
How you expect high dividends ?

Many stks offer much higher cap appreciation
Many stks offer much higher dividends

Only saving grace is Taurx.
So, wait till Taurx successful
or else
Sell or don't Buy GB.

Digital banks do not operate with a store front, which is a building.
Almost 100% done online.
Target mkt is more towards rural areas where traditional banks don't have branches.
Digital banks target customers with smaller loans, etc.

However, traditional banks are all going online now.
So, they too can reach rural areas as well.
Traditional banks are expanding and offering full digital services.

So they offer both on-site & online services.
Best of both worlds, traditional & digital.
Remember, traditional/conventional brick-n-mortar banks with many branches have at least 30 years experience and have a head start in bank services.

With more knowledge, experience & skills as well as more $money$, reputation, branding, goodwill & public trust in old, strong banks, it will take a VERY LONG TIME for digital banks to catch up and win over public trust !!!

DONT FORGET
5G is only now launching !!!
Will take telcos till 2030 to fully cover Msia.
So far, even 4G services SLOW and no coverage.
5G telco services even MORE EXPENSIVE.
Online stealing & scamming EVERYDAY.

Banks have a team of lawyers to defend them.

WARNING
YOU RISK MONEY SCAMMED & STOLEN ONLINE !

GB is no more gem like it used to be.
Look back over last 12 yrs stock price.
Dropping & declining trend.

Yes, it has open up GS & RWLV.
Only GS is raking in profits quickly.
RWLV is saddled with GIANT costs.
Take years before it can contribute BIG.

CEO GB salary over RM100+ M
CEO GS salary over RM50+ M
Combined salary way past RM 150 + M

This affects bottom line, P&L, net profit.
This affects stock price.
This affects dividend amount given.

Expansion requires $$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

Can't give more dividend as $ needed for expansion.

At the end only owners benefit as this is a LONG-TERM business.
Their children/nxt Gen will reap the harvest of this gigantic expansion.

Retailers hold less than 5 yrs will see little.

Unless you are very good, buy/sell short term.

Amidst another US rate hike nxt mth,
safe, strong, successful PBB may be just the right bank & place to park yr funds.
PBB to enjoy further growth in 3rd & 4th QR.
Both capital appreciation & div will rise.
Safest local bank - personal opinion.

PBB declares nine sen dividend.

https://www.thestar.com.my/business/business-news/2023/08/29/public-bank-records-net-profit-of-rm162bil-in-2q-declares-9c-divshare

Public Bank's 2Q net profit rises 14% to RM1.62b.

PBB declares nine sen dividend.

BlackDiamond, you have a good pt.
Here, co owners often are operators playing own shares.
Buy & sell themselves thr brokers, etc.
So, everyday move a few cents up or down.
When they want to make money, push up or down.
Retailers usually get trapped.
Imagine, retailers play against owners.
More often retailers lose than win.
Owners have inside info.

So, retailers often CHASE the WIND.

Case in example
Co CEO highest-paid salary here.
How can owner pay himself highest salary.
RPT also happen a few times.

US mkt offers more potential despite risks.

Let's get real.
US economy heading for RECESSION !
Smaller banks may tank, must merge.

China,
Evergrande going bankrupt,
Country Garden may follow, many defaults.
Su... , a smaller developer also in BIG trouble.

If US & China soon in BIG TROUBLE,
how do you think KLCI will fair ?


With big boys US & China looming low down,
Yes, PBB may drop big also,
at least it WILL RECOVER !

PBB is strong, solid & save.
PBB is a 7 - 15 yr long term investment.
Maybe 12+
yrs fr now Bonus Issue,
when you look back to now, it is Cheap.
A good buy.

All said and done, GB will not have easy time to move up as
1) debt level servicing is so HIGH,
2) HIGHEST PAID CEO
3) Every now & then RPT !

So, mgmt is not changing their way.
They work to serve themselves ONLY.
Shareholders are a way to raise funds only.
CEO, family, etc. control majority shares

Shareholders help them to become richer.
Remember, they have the INSIDE INFO.
You only find out when it is published.

Without Taurx becoming successful, GB is far, far, far away from the best shares to buy.
In last 6m, a few shares rose over 40% !!!
So, no big deal abt GB.

Taurx is the jewel in the crown.
If it is successful, GB WILL MOVE UP !

Yes,
