HENCE BOUGHT A BIT AND RESERVE SOME CASH TO AVERAGE DOWN AT THE OPPORTUNE TIME.

AGREED THAT CHINA ECONOMY IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ASEAN ESPECIALLY TO MALAYSIA. BUT THIS WHY I AM WORRIED THE ECONOMIC DAMAGE THAT A "PRESIDENT" TRUMP CAN INFLICT ON CHINA AS HE HAD THREATENED TO TAKE DRASTIC ACTIONS ON CHINA YUAN CURRENCY WHICH CLAIMED IS BEEN MANIPULATED N KEPT ARTIFICIALLY LOW AT THE EXPENSE OF USA ECONOMY. AND HE HAD THREATENED TO IMPOSE PUNITIVE TARIFFS ON CHINESE EXPORTS, RENEGOTIATE TRADE AGREEMENTS, ETC.
HENCE THE NEGATIVE IMPACT OF A TRUMP PRESIDENCY CAN HIT WORLD TRADE AND THE GLOBAL ECONOMY HARD.

U ARE RIGHT TOO.
JUST NEED TO CONSIDER ALL FACTORS WHEN INVESTING

NIBBLING SOME SMALL QUANTITIES ONLY.

DUE TO WORRIES OVER BERSIH MEGA RALLY IN NOVEMBER AND US ELECTIONS ON 8 NOVEMBER (ECON NEGATIVES SHOULD TRUMP WINS)

OBSERVATIONS
=============
NOTICED THAT YESTERDAY'S PRICE CORRECTION INTENSIFIED IN THE LATE AFTERNOON

RANGED TRADING FROM 0.81 TO 0.90 HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE LAST 1 MONTH. ALSO INDICATED ITS SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE LEVELS

MAYBE SAFER TO TRY IN SMALL QUANTITIES AND DO AVERAGING

WHY SUCH A DRASTIC DROP?

SHARE PRICE MOVEMENTS BECOMING ERRATIC AND VOLATILE RANGING FROM 0.90 TO 0.865 INTRADAY.
NOT EASY TO FIND THE RIGHT ENTRY PRICES

BIG COST ADVANTAGES WHEN BECOME A LICENSED ISLAMIC OR COMMERCIAL BANK AS IT WILL THEN BE ABLE TO ACCESS MUCH CHEAPER FUNDS FROM THE INTERBANK MARKETS. ITS PROFITABILITY WILL THEN INCREASE DUE TO LOWER COSTS AND THEREFORE BIGGER SPREADS
Eg. Look at Bank Islam (share price is now 4.03)

UNWINDED MY POSITION (WITH A SMALL PROFIT) IN TROP AS EXPECTED INTERIM DIVIDEND NOT FULFILLED. CAN SWITCH SOME FUNDS OVER TO MBSB

ITS IMPAIRMENT PROGRAMME IS NOW WELL KNOWN FACT ACCEPTED BY INVESTORS THAT IT A TEMPORARY NECESSITY BUT WILL BECOME A LONGER TERM POSITIVE AS IT WILL ENHANCE ITS ASSET QUALITY AND STRENGTHEN ITS FUNDAMENTALS

MBSB CAN ALWAYS OPT TO OBTAIN ITS OWN ISLAMIC BANKING LICENCE. RAISING ITS ASSET QUALITY STANDARD IS THE RIGHT STEP IN THIS DIRECTION

RECENTLY LAUNCHED ITS SHARIAH COMPLIANT FUND WHICH IS ANOTHER CORPORATE ACTION TOWARDS ITS POLICY OBJECTIVE TO BECOME AN ISLAMIC COMMERCIAL BANK

A REVIEW AND UPDATING
======================
SEEMS ITS SHARE PRICE HAD BOTTOMED AND CONSOLIDATED WELL . STARTING ITS PRICE UPTREND BASED ON SEVERAL CATALYSTS INCLUDING :-
1) ITS IMPAIRMENT PROGRAMME WHICH HAD REDUCED ITS PROFITS IS NOW ALREADY
WELL KNOWN IN THE MARKET AND ITS IMPACT HAD BY NOW ALREADY FACTORED
INTO ITS PRICE
2) INVESTORS NOW REALISED THAT ITS PROFITABILITY( ALTHO REDUCED BY ITS
IMPAIRMENT) HAD ALREADY TURNED AROUND WITH ITS 2Q PROFITS OF 63M MUCH
HIGHER THAN ITS PRECEDING 1Q OF 35M. LIKELY TO SEE INCREASING SEQUENTIAL
PROFITS FOR ITS 3Q AND 4Q
3) IN 2013 IT ANNOUNCED ITS 3Q RESULTS ON 22ND OCTOBER AND DECLARED A 5 SEN
INTERIM DIVIDEND.
AS AT 30/6/2016 ITS BALANCE SHEET CONFIRMED ITS RETAINED EARNINGS OF
RM602M. IT CAN AGAIN ANNOUNCE ITS 3Q RESULTS NEXT MONTH AND EASILY
DECLARE AN INTERIM DIVIDEND( SINCE ITS RETAINED PROFITS IS HUGE). THIS WILL
THEN BE VERY POSITIVE NEWS

skliew have valid points. agrees that Malton have both short term and long term prospects which will support its share price uptrend

WE SHOULD FOCUS ON THE NEAR TERM POSITIVES LIKE THE COMING DIVIDEND ANNOUNCEMENT AND THE RM50M CASH ITS RECEIVING AS REVOCATION FEE FROM ECOWORLD. 2 BIG CATALYSTS TO DRIVE UP ITS STOCK PRICES

DIVIDEND ANNOUNCEMENTS IN OCTOBER WITH EX D DATES IN DECEMBER

malton's Effective DY is much higher as u gets your D in 3 mths time

CAN COMPUTE ITS DIVIDEND YIELDS BY SAY 3 SEN AND 4 SEN OVER ITS CURRENT PRICE.EFFECTIVE YIELDS ARE EVEN HIGHER

VERY ATTRACTIVE COMPARED TO BANK FD

currently having technical problems in logging in my comments

YOUR POINTS ACCEPTED
U ARE RIGHT. WAS ACTUALLY COMMENTING ON MALTON EARLIER BASED ON ITS HIGH DIVIDEND YIELD

my apologies

my above comments was meant for another stock
but I selected a wrong stock for my comments

BEST DIVIDEND YIELD

ONE OF THE BEST STOCK TO INVEST IN NOW

one of the best stock to invest in now

AGREED. THE BIG INCREASE IN 4Q PROFITS OVER THE PRECEDING 3Q IS ALREADY EVIDENCE THAT THE QUARTERLY PROFITS ARE IN A SIGNIFICANT UPTREND. (4Q 22M AGAINST 3Q 4M)
WE WILL SEE A BIGGER JUMP IN PROFITS IN THE COMING 1Q OF ITS NEXT FINANCIAL YEAR WITH THE INCLUSION OF CAPITAL GAIN OF 36.8M (FROM THE 50M CASH RECEIVABLE FROM ECOWORLD AS REVOCATION FEE).

TRADITIONALLY MALTON ANNOUNCES ITS 1ST AND FINAL DIVIDENDS IN OCTOBER EACH YEAR.
BASED ON ITS STRONG FINANCIALS IT CAN GIVE AT LEAST 3 SEN. MAYBE WE GET REWARDED WITH A HIGHER D THIS YEAR.

SUMMARY
========
NTA 1.65
CASH AT BANKS AND FD 98M
RETAINED EARNINGS 268M

JUST STATING THE FACTS.

I AM ONLY INVESTED IN THE MOTHER SHARE BCOS ITS PAR VALUE IS RM1. NTA ABOVE RM1.50. FINANCIALLY SOUND GROUP. ALL HOUSING PROJECTS N ITS CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS DOING WELL.
CONSISTENTLY PAYING AT LEAST 3 SEN DIVIDEND. COMING SOON.
RECENT IMPORTANT EVENT IS ECOWORLD IS BUYING OUT ITS DEVT RIGHTS IN PENANG
JOINT VENTURE PROJECT N MALTON WILL RECEIVE REVOCATION FEE RM50M CASH PLUS
HAVING ITS RELATED FINANCING 92M
PAID OFF. BIG FIMANCIAL GAINS

MOTHER MALTON VERY UNDERVALUED BUT I AM NOT IN ITS WARRANTS. ALTHO WHEN MOTHER PRICE GO UP ITS WARRANTS WILL ALSO GO UP. BUT NEED TO STLUDY ITS EXPIRIY DATE N ITS GEARING N CONVERSION TERMS
BUT 1 DISADVANTAGE . NOT ENTITLED TO DIVIDENDS

MINIMUM 2 YEAR IMPAIRMENT (provisioning for bad debts) AMOUNTING TO RM1.6B MEANS THE NEXT 2 QUARTERS RESULTS N ITS FULL YEAR PROFITS WILL CONTINUE TO BE HIT.
IMPAIRMENT DURATION N ITS LOAN WRITE DOWNZ CAN BE EXTENDED N INCREASED IF ECONOMY WORSEN.
DIRECTORS HAD IN ITS BRIEFINGS N ITS FINANCIAL REPORTS THAT APPLICATION FOR AN ISLAMIC BANKING LICENCE IN NOT A PRIORITY IN THE NEXT 2 to 3 YEARS.
ANYWAY ITS 3Q RESULTS IS 3 MONTHS AWAY
LACKING CATALYSTS NEAR TERM

HENCE SHARE PRICES LIKELY TO PRESSURED IN THE NEXT FEW MONTHS WITH A NEGATIVE BIAS

SIGH !!!
ITS MORE IMPORTANT TO CONSIDER ITS FUNDAMENTALS ESPECIALLY ITS BUSINESS GROWTH N ITS FINANCIALS INCLUDING ITS ABILITY TO PAY DIVIDENDS CONSISTENTLY.

SHOUD REMEMBER THAT ITS HIGH END PROJECT IN BUKIT JALIL WERE SOLD OUT DUE TO ITS STRATEGIC LOCATION. ITS CONSTRUCTION ARM IS ALSO DOING WELL INCLUDING SATISFACTORY PROGRESS IN ITS RM783M BUKIT DAMANSARA NEW TOWN CENTRE CONTRACT FROM THE PAVILON GRP.
MOST IMPORTANT TO NOTE IS IT WILL BE RECEIVING RM50M CASH AS REVOCATION FEE FROM ECOWORLD WHICH WILL ALSO SETTLE THE RM94M BANK LOAN.
THESE ARE THE MORE FACTORS TO CONSIDER.
ALSO WE COULD BE GETTING A PLEASANT SURPRISE WITH DIVIDEND PAYMENT OF MORE THAN 3 SEN

AGREED WITH HNG33. WHILE ITS 2 Q RESULTS WERE IN FACT BETTER THAN ITS 1QM ITS SHARE PRICE DIPPED AS SOME PUNTERS "SELL ON NEWS"
ITS SHARE PRICE WILL STEADY BACK AS IT IS SUPPORTED BY STRONG FUNDAMENTALS.
ITS NEXT CATALYSTS WILL INCLUDE POSITIVE NEWS FLOWS FROM ITS SALE OF JB LANDS FOR RM659M AS WELL AS DIVIDEND ANNOUNCEMENTS

SOMETIMES IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THERE ARE SUCH NAIVE PEOPLE THAT A SMALL COMMERCIAL ACCIDENT CAN CAUSE SOMEONE TO PANIC SELL HIS SHARES.

WHILE WE SYMPATISE WITH THE VICTIM AND HIS FAMILY OVER THE UNFORTUNATE ACCIDENT, THE FINANCIAL IMPACT IS INSIGNIFICANT AS ALL WILL BE TAKEN CARE OFF BY THE INSURANCE COMPANIES, INCLUDING FINANCIAL COMPENSATION FOR THE VICTIM'S FAMILY.

LAST YEAR GAVE SEVERAL DIVIDENDS TOTALLING 7 SEN.

EXPECTING GOOD DIVIDENDS THIS YEAR ALSO (BASED ON IT ALREADY HAVE 19.59M TREASURY SHARES AVAILABLE FOR DISTRIBUTION TO SHAREHOLDERS PLUS
STRONG FREE CASH FLOWS RECEIVED FROM PROGRESSIVE RECEIPTS OF UNBILLED SALES AND FROM DISPOSALS OF BIG VALUE NON CORE ASSETS PLUS HIGHER QUARTERLY PROFITS

FUNDAMENTALS HAD STRENGTHENED.
NEW SALES FOR 6 MONTHS OF 2016 AT RM502M WAS COMMENDABLE WHEN CURRENT PROPERTY MARKETS WERE SOFTER. PROJECTS IN GOOD LOCATIONS HELPED.

UNBILLED SALES AT RM2.8B GAVE GOOD EARNINGS VISIBILITY FOR 2Q AND 3Q 2016 RESULTS. THIS WILL BE ENHANCED WHEN THE SALES OF 2 COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS FOR RM154M AND RM55M ARE INCLUDED IN THE NEXT 2 Q RESULTS.
TO BE FURTHER ENHANCED WITH THE PROGRESSIVE COMPLETION OF ITS SALE OF JB LANDS FOR RM659M.

PROFIT MARGINS INCREASED WITH VERY SUCCESSFUL DEGEARING RESULTING IN GREATLY REDUCED BANK INTEREST COSTS = HIGHER AND HIGHER PROFITS.

SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS N PROFIT GROWTH. NOTE NTA IS NOW RM2.17

2Q RESULTS WERE ALL IMPROVED.
TOPLINE REVENUE UP 15% TO 358M.
PRETAX PROFIT UP 70% TO 44M
2Q NET PROFIT ALMOST DOUBLED TO 32M (FROM 16M IN 1Q)
1H NEW SALES WAS 502M WHILE UNBILLED SALES WAS A GOOD 2.8B
ALL INDICATIVE OF HEALTHY SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS GROWTH FOR 2016.

CONFIDENT AND POSITIVE OUTLOOK

GOOD PROFITS AND DIVIDENDS ARE THE 2 MOST IMPORTANT CRITERIA FOR GOOD SHARE INVESTMENT RETURNS

PRICE CATALYSTS WILL COME FROM A GOOD SET OF 2Q RESULTS /PROFITS AND ADIVIDEND ANNOUNCEMENTS

RALLY COMING

LAST YEAR PAID 7 SEN DIVIDEND

ALSO BOUGHT. GREATLY UNDERVALUED. WITH DIVIDEND COMING

HOW CAN ANYONE MAKES SUCH SILLY MISTAKE?
EURO's CURRENT PRICE 0.23 IS ALREADY AT ITS HISTORIC LOW.
ITS HIGH WAS AT 0.325.

FULLY AGREED WITH pekor's OPINION ON hng33 WHOSE INVESTMENT TRACK RECORDS ARE VERY GOOD.

likely game over for the time being.
they already made lots of money.
past 2 weeks pattern indicate distribution
next q results 4 months away. 3q will still be bogged down by impairment overhang which is already a known fact. aim for banking licence also said ny mbsb mgt NOT a priority

I MEAN MBSB SHARE

Proud to admit that I had also made money by following him in MBDB

Based on my observations Hng33 is a very
Experienced n Smart investor. I had seen his very good timing
In his very profitable trades in MBSB.
HNG HAD POSTED HIS ADDITIONAL PURCHASES IN
MALTON.

TECHNICALLY ITS PRICE HAD REMAINED ABOVE 1.04 AND ON LARGER VOLUMES.

NOTE THE FOLLOWING GREATLY IMPROVED FUNDAMENTALS: BY FYE2015 ALREADY BROUGHT ITS GEARING FROM 7.7x to 3.0x(good), 1H FURTHER SOLD 2 COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS FOR RM195M CASH. ALSO SOLD JOHORE LAND FOR RM659M CASH LAST MONTH. THESE WILL BRING IN LOTS OF CASH IN ADDITION TO REALISING BIG CAPITAL GAINS BOOSTING ITS COMING QUARTERLY PROFITS. TOGETHER WITH THE PROFITS N CASH RECOGNIZED FROM ITS PROGRESSIVE RECEIPTS FROM ITS UNBILLED SALES OF RM3.2 BILLIONS , U CAN NOW SEE THE VERY GOOD PROSPECTS OF A STRONG SET OF 2Q RESULTS IN 1 to 2 WEEKS TIME. TROP WILL ALSO HAVE A LOT OF FREE CASH FLOWS TO PAY A GOOD DIVIDEND IN LINE WITH ITS OBJECTIVE TO REBRAND ITSELF AS A HIGH YIELD STOCK PLAY.
EXPECTING A HIGH DIVIDENG COMPRISING CASH + TREASURY SHARES. CA. ALSO TOP IT WITH A SPECIAL D. EXPECT A SPIKE IN ITS PRICE WHEN THESE HAPPEN.

I MEAN "GOOD" FOR ME AND ALL
