@劉尹光,
agree.
some big shark is calling the shots now.
they will push below RM1, trapping the lucky IPO owners. (or rather, unlucky.)

Either you believe it's a golden egg with some droppings on top, or it's a normal egg that's bound to spoil.

@Heavenly PUNTER Research IB,
And your choice is? Changing your path to that of an accountant?
Or Seeking greener pastures via the American Dream?
Or hujan batu di negeri sendiri, negeri sendiri lebih baik?

Paying dividends is important.
1. Investor's return.
2. As good record for future investors.
3. As a symbol of quality. Many Bursa stocks don't even pay half sen.
4. Show that free cashflow is real.

@calvintaneng,

Magic is where something is created out of seemingly nothing. It may appear out of someone's beliefs and expectations. It may also be mere trickery. Magic in anything can also be the result of consistency.

@jollybee,
which branch are you referring to and did you complaint to their superiors?

or are you saying that PBB causes us investors to lose money?

For me, no issues. Personally, I feel it's one of the fastest banks & among the most sustainable stocks. Will HODL.

@calvintaneng,
this is a forum where anyone can express anything as long as it's not extreme. You can say anything you want in any i3 forum. I can do the same.

You know, you can't silence me unless you become i3investor admin first.

"I think you and I are destined to do this forever." Whereever you hangout in i3, I won't hesitate in joining your discussion. Perhaps you could enlighten fellow i3investors on 'real life' instead?

crowdfunding for the house you want works only if the location is good.
you buy in places having oversupply 5 years later house still same price.
the key is purchasing property in places which are constantly in demand.

@calvintaneng,

I'm very thankful to you for making me laugh non-stop. Nonsense statements from you makes LOL.

"price rise of crude oil will eat into Padini cost of production"? ------My reply: What's the correlation here?! Padini is mostly cotton-made.


"Sorchai 3iii does not understand correlation of production cost and profit. After he bankrupted people in invest lah forum he will spread his poisoned teaching here" ------ My reply: I believe you were referring to yourself instead of 3iii? 3iii's sound investment theories are time-tested reliable strategies. Your speculative theories seem more like "poisoned teaching".

Don't get your hopes too high. One lacklustre coming QR is all it takes to whack Dayang back to <RM1 levels. Too risky.

calvintaneng,
you may have beaten the established sifus from Jan 2019-May 2019 but don't forget you have never beaten them previously.

Form is temporary, class is permanent. Great companies will always beat mediocre companies consistently from medium term to long term.

Buying TOP quality companies would yield you TOP results.

Unlike some low quality
Uzma
Kps
Pohuat
T7 global

better to be stuck in a profit making company than a loss making one.

Holding 9 mths till 1 year is quite long a time.

one more bad quarter and sharks will drive it down to RM7.00. The perils of having a stock with low number of shares it price fluctuation is inevitable. Price can skyrocket or crash.

Wait for the quarter report before buying or selling.

awaiting the good QR report soon~

Let it crash beneath 1600. Then we will see how many actually hold stocks for the long term. It may slip below 1600 but I suppose a mini-rebound will occur.

Why isn't anyone discussing about this? This should be an interesting topic. Don't tell me 99% of i3 members are day traders who rely solely on technical analysis?

Dow is falling again. Prepared to get pummeled tomorrow.

Agree that time to buy is when market is full of fear.
But not now.
Bursa may just fall further after this.

Fascinating. 5 different IBs giving 5 very different price targets for Harta. We shall see which IB is the best in predicting the price.

so, reduction of OPR rate will adversely affect banking stocks?

Not really dead. Buffett never discloses how he precisely selects stocks, so he might be using the same method he used. Or even if he deviated from what he used to do, it is still value investing. The idea of value investing is always to buy stocks below the intrinsic/apparent value. Buffett probably thought Amazon to be undervalued now, could grow further in future & probably has a very strong sustainable competitive moat.

From what I see, Buffett is now acquiring shares of strongest companies, eg Apple, Amazon. Perhaps, he wants Berkshire to be the monopoly holder of strongest stocks for the next 50 years.

It's the 5 day special from Padini. Available in-store & online. Don't miss the chance to pick-up Padini at low prices! (Gee, I sound like a certain promoter here. :P)

@chkhooju
You meant to say "...has internet in the rice and edible oil business... " or "has interests in the rice and edible oil business"?

Anyway, enjoy your talk, it'll be a fruitful one.

looks like a good deal for dividend hunting

"no more resurrections this time."

back to RM1.60 levels next?

DY seems tempting. not sure if the knife is still falling or otherwise.

wau, limit down

Decent dividend. Still waiting at RM8 though.

Buying TOP quality items would yield you TOP results.

I think the market will take a wait and see approach. Public bank's growth is slowing down & may concern investors. PBB's slowing profits is probably due to banking sector slowing down as a whole. Hopefully PBB will form a double-bottom and reverse into an uptrend real soon. For now, it still is the bank with the highest EPS and profits.

People say don't buy IPO. Now I get it. Those who bought since IPO and held until now would have lost a substantial amount of money here.

interesting to see how markets reacts to the reduce in dividends. would people throw and cause the share price to plummet to RM50+ levels? or would people hold on and still believe in its value?

btw, let me put a disclaimer here.
I have no idea why when I leave a comment on a stock in i3 nowadays, its share price would start falling after a week or so. I'm just a small fry & have no control over stocks. Just trying to earn some extra ringgit in the stock market.
I must've offended some big shark here. :-(

@bootroop,
to me, the most reliable info on QL in this forum is Mr. Philip's comments on QL. He has invested in QL & held QL shares since a decade ago.

don't put money into this stock unless you want to short it.
not for holding long term.
company making losses since 2017, I'd categorise it as deteriorating fundamentals.

@3iii,
in your view, which stage is our current market in right now?
do you think it's wiser to get in while the benchmark KLCI is at almost a 3 yr low or wait until signs of an uptrend is visible?

within 5 yrs, QL's revenue & profit have almost doubled.
share price movement have followed in tandem with its financial performance.
reaching the 1bil revenue in quarter performance would propel QL to greater heights.
one could say that QL deserves its sky high PE, since QL's consistent growth and profit churning capabilities are nearly unparalleled.

Delisting? By whom? Any credible source? No?

35sen is near impossible unless:
1. BJCorp posts a profit for the year,
2. Entire stockmarket experiences a bull run, OR
3. Privatisation by Tan Sri Vincent.

Based on observation, BJCorp would at most be goreng-ed until 32sen by year end, if circumstances remain the same.

not really so. Nestle's Milo has near monopoly over other chocolate drinks. 100Plus has near monopoly over other isotonic drinks here.

Gov. given monopoly is could be a double-edged sword, but brand monopoly might be one of the strongest moats. Think of GSC & TGV cinemas too.

good effort!

I now understand why my friend said buying REITs is like buying real estate property. Location, location, location.

when economy is bad and all stocks are down, it's the time to unload the cash that one has been hoarding to accumulate beaten down quality stocks. don't forget 1998 and 2008 crisis. best time to colelct.

finally something worthwhile comes from calvintaneng.
by that, I am referring to the last line of the comment above "...If not sure then keep Cash and wait"

cash is king when the economy is bad

seems to me that the sharks wont stop until RM3 limit is breached.

F&N stock is like ping-pong.
One moment up, next moment down.
