I felt sorry for those people trapped. But anyone can actually see this coming from a mile away right?

If you are looking for quick bucks and have the stomach to swallow higher risk, this counter is for you.

Fasten your seatbelts: it's going to be a bumpy ride

Jester, don't forget to support master sifu stockraider and buy his INSAS ya.

Any anger and loses in INSAS you may direct to him.

But if making money, just remember I told you first to buy INSAS ya.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Haha bro 10154899906070843, I can't invest in Insas because I don't invest in something I don't understand (financial services).

I'm just a newbie. Reading what you and everyone else's post here already made me pusing. Haha

Wow. A very very good article and discussions by 10154899906070843.
I'm very far away from you guys and will strive to learn more.

I have analyzed my stocks over the years and reach to a conclusion that I lacks the proper temperament.

Thanks for the great read.

What an interesting comment from the community. Haha. The comment section is more interesting than the blog post itself. Nice.

Great that we still continue with this contest every year. I learn a lot from everyone.

What a bad QR. Could press below lowest price to 52 weeks range even.

Hi Mr @Tan KW. Great that we are still having the yearly stock pick. Thanks for previously reserving a seat for me. I was totally away from the market since Jul 10, 2017 until last few weeks due to focus shift to my newborn (heh).

I think this is my first time not participating since 2014. But I will be monitoring the participants this year to learn more from everyone.

Good luck to all participants!

Wow! Everyone is so good.

@Mat Cendana, I think my result is actually wrong because I did my stock split wrongly before being advised by the kind moneySIFU. I have amended and should be placed around #20+ only.

This year I do not do enough research for my picks because I'm out of the market in real life but I still participate to learn from people in i3.

My target for this year is a modest 7% with a stretch target of 15%.

Nevertheless, thanks for your kind words. I strive to learn to be as good as you Mat. :D

Wow nice performance.

@moneySIFU, thanks a lot for the guidance. Did I amend correctly now? My bad. I know the numbers are off by large margin, it is just that I'm not sure where I did wrong. Haha.

Thanks again!

@Yip2880, Yes you are right. I guess I just want the information faster because I'm quite busy right now. Just want to update my i3klse stock pick. Thanks

@ivan8233, thanks for the feedback. I understand now.

@moneySIFU, I'm really a newbie. You are not. haha. I always learn a lot from you. Thanks for your feedback & guide. I understand now.

Hi everyone, can someone teach me how does the special dividend & the Split work for Ekovest?

Is the special dividend given before the split or how? Sorry, a newbie here.

Update

Wow. So many people are so good with their picks. Great learning this year too! Thanks everyone!

Final Note:
Portfolio closed. No more updating changes on 31st Dec 2016 onwards.

Summary 2016, 5 out of 8 stocks (62.5%) provided positive returns.
Biggest losers is KIMHIN with >10% losses.
The other two losers are Favco & Weida with <10% losses. Weida's losses mitigated a little bit by averaging down via accumulated dividend.

@paperplane2016, this year I target top 60. Still have 8 more people in front of me. Haha

I agree with a lot of what stockmanmy said. Except things concerning kyy only.

Thanks Mr Tan KW. Appreciate your help.

Thanks Mr Tan Kw for the creation of the portfolio.

Thus, my quest for 7% returns begins...

@soojinhou, my situation is the same like you (hence my lousy stock selection). But lets just participate for the sake of learning. I've participated with you since 2014 if not mistaken. Quite sad a lot of old timers are pulling out from this opportunity.

I'm out from the market in real life for >6months now but still participate to gain more knowledge from people here in i3. My stocks this year will not remotely reach top 30. But I hope my learning this year is the same if not more than last year.

Please reconsider.

Hi Mr Tan, may I know if you have created my portfolio? Sorry. With so many thread, I'm not sure which one to use. You can use whichever closing price date no worries.

Apology for any inconvenience.

http://klse.i3investor.com/blogs/stock_pick_2016/88953.jsp

Hi Mr Tan, thanks for reserving the slot to me. By happy luck, i'm in the top 10 for once. I have participated in year 2014, 2015, & 2016. I have improved a little bit year on year with the help of fellow i3 investors. Thanks to all!

2016 would be my best year (maybe ever). I am out of the market for half a year now irl so I don't do enough research for this year's entry. Therefore I'm changing my overall strategy to be the simplest one.

Target this year is a just a meagre 7% returns end of 2017. Personally I think it is a challenging year for me. I'm still a novice in investing and hope to learn again with everyone on 2017. Good luck all. :)

Picks:
1) TIMECOM 10%
2) TAKAFUL 17.5%
3) MPI 17%
4) MKH 18%
5) SPSETIA 10%
6) KOSSAN 10%
7) EKOVEST 17.5%

@Tan KW, thank you for your invitation & your great contribution. I have yet to miss my participation in i3 Stock Pick since 2014. I am learning so much from many participants and will continue to do so.

I'm still contemplating to participate in 2017 or not because it is about half a year since I'm out of the market totally in real life and I did not do any research until now.

Maybe I can do some simple searches and come out with 5-7 stocks by end of today. Let me try my best and get back to you asap.

I'm a little late but I would like to thank the organisers for 2016's event. A have learnt a lot and hopefully learn more from everyone in 2017.

Great article as always KC. Thanks a lot!

You are right paperplane. Nevertheless, I'm glad that we have learnt a lot from each other this year since it is not an easy year.

Congratulations to our current top 3 participants Up_down, yeekarwai88, paperplane 2016. Indeed a lot of learning done this year.

Special mention to OTB who bounced back so hard. This guy just simply cannot get a low returns. I dream to be this consistent one day.

GGWP

Thank you for your knowledge everyone!

@Tee Tom. That kind of attitude is what makes you a good investor. You have gained my respect. Great performance! Would like to learn more from you next year. Thanks!

@Up_down, he did not mention your name because he knows you will do it maa. haha
