@Agjl You're welcome. All of us here share for the benefit of one another - well at least some like @dragon328 and a few others anyway).

I normally look at the share technical charts to see the trade and volume pattern as well to determine if the time is right to go in (one of the many expensive lessons learned along the way in equities investments. I take analysts TP as a guide but with a pinch of salt.

Even my remisier told me once that he also dont trust 100% what his Broking firm analysts share out. Who knows what hidden agenda these brokerage firms have at stake with their investments as well.

I usually only trade in stocks with consistent dividend payout and with solid fundamentals. Like what was shared in the other forum, I'll also share what Warren Buffet once said, invest in the Business you understand. I try and avoid seasonal businesses. REIT is a good stock to hold but risk from interest in OPR ad maybe life changing events like Covid. Financial market in a growing economy is a good choice as well. The days banks when fail, no hope already for the country. Anyway Malaysian Banks if no scandal are a pretty safe bet for me. Meanwhile RE is the way forward now as Madani Govt is pushing hard for it. So it's a no-brainer for an opportunistic investment.

Hope you find your trade and business you believe in too. Btw, I never get sentimental over my stock portfolio. For me it's all about the DY and how it will provide me cashflow in the long run. Day trading is not really my cup of tea as it requires constant monitoring and my time, a luxury which I rather not waste on looking at the stocks daily. Stressful and may not necessarily be rewarding all the time. Above all, hold on to your conviction and DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH as well. Good Luck!

@Mabel Yes agreed. Carpe Diem my friend, Carpe Diem. Time and tide waits for no man. Maximise your returns asap. Nice to see your investment in MBB forum too. Trying to beat brother @stkoay with his annual RM50+K annual dividend!.. so far no success, not even close ... sigh

on this note, like the others here, thanks to @dragon328 and the others for their dedication and passion in sharing useful information to the rest of us. It certainly has been a roller coaster of a ride over the past 6 months.

@Agjl I believe the fortune for RE sector has a shelf life like all industries where eventually the barriers to entry to this monopolistic industry will be lowered for competition. I heard a industrial analyst or fund maager from US (if unmistaken) on BFM recently who said that RE industry life around 2-3 years before healthy competition comes in. YTLP benefit is not only in RE but tech and utilities as well. So the appeal is there. IMO whether to realise profit or not from YTLP depends on your age and your expectation and financial goals. Equities are just investments to get you nearer to your financial goals. If you are young can enjoy the small yearly dividend and enjoy seeing the paper profit OR realise the huge gain and invest into other equities with better higher dividend. For example, I am targeting for YTLP to have enough profit to buy MBB shares that pay out a dividend of RM0.60 (usually RM0.58 annually) compared to YTLP RM0.06. Basically I translate the paper gain to actual stock price and my dividend will be 4 times annually from MBB (roughly 60+ years of forward dividend from YTLP in advance) compared to if I didn't switch at all. So no right or wrong but rather my personally goal to earn passive income from my portfolio of dividend stocks. Downside? I might miss out of extraordinary profits from sale of assets and special dividends when YTLP eventually diversify its portfolio.

I will eventually cash out above 4.60 to 5.50, I will then pump my money into Maybank and increase my annual dividends 400%. While I will miss YTLP eye candy, my pocket lined with $$$ more important

@Steven Chan haha

@Stkoay agree. when FF exit and big boys come in, only a matter of time when FF will come again. That time the stocks will fly. Of course big boys will exit to take profit. All these horse trading happens all the time. The trick is when to come in and scoop on the cheap. So as long as KLCI is below 1600 points sure got many more opportunities. At mid 1600 the gravy train will slow down considerably and even stop. the highest was 1800s during the bull run of yester years. Just sharing my thoughts with all here. Dont flame me ya

@Huangbk72 you mean they all crawl back to their lobang cacing ya? Correct? Haiyoh!

Coconut will only appear when price drop. He will hide for now 😆😆😆

where have all those mafakas gone? the ones shouting nonsense like some makcik bawang. like the wind they appear and disappear. Haiyoh! Correct?

@Steven Chan Sotong kering is also another word for underwear being had out to dry. Sotong also used to describe a feminine guy / Gay. So please use the word Sotong in the right context.

@stkoay you think can look, see look see RHB? got potential?

@stkoay haha.. nice to see you active again in Tiger forum. Such Fire! Anyway I missed the boat to kutip at 9.50 as only drop till 9.53. Miss the boat. Should have just went in. I hope it will drop again. The only chance is next ex-date I think. Btw, I know which is your No. 2 - its also a Banking stock which pity that I also missed out on. Too bad. ;-)

how to apply for this IPO? not listed in Maybank?

@stkoay Yeh same here. Not gonna sell even if hit rm10. As long as DY is above 6% - 6.5% I will continue to add till my threshold meets the income tax threshold for tax free income. Meanwhile my orders parked till Mid May at 9.50

@linges cause Malaysia Boleh

Looks like no chicken dinner tonight. The defense was strong. Anyway am parking at 9.50 anyway for a month.

Looking at the sell down from 10.30am and the huge volume, this is real sell off and not a fake bear. l would hasten to add, that if anyone wants to buy more then park lower price as it will continue to fall. US market will open ard 3pm-4pm, that will be another round of sell off by foreign funds. IMO dont make the mistake of being greedy and catch the falling knife. Be patient Tiger brothers.

the people who will buy stocks are those who keep commenting here I guess

@linges, it's 9.56... going to test the 9.55 barrier soon!

@linges not too sure. US seems a likely beneficiary in this war as well. Makes the world reserve currency very much in demand and yes continue to support the petro Dollar. Until and unless, BRICS trading using local currencies is a confirmed and permanent trading option for the world outside the influences of US, the US would still want to continue the war as long as possible resulting in their increase spending and boosting their GDP in the process and delaying a possible recession. so far only China, Russia and India started trading in local currencies. I believe Malaysia and Singapore is interested as well but no official mention or stance in this matter. Look at Ukraine, more than a year and US seems to wash their hands off the issue. EU fighting among themselves to see who will fund the ongoing war. the only winner? Gold

@linges you to start queuing your orders now if you plan to buy at 9.50 as by the time it breaks thru 9.55 no more chance as big boys queue up way way before hand. I always do this queuing ip early, that's how I manage to pick up some good stocks at very low price e.g. MAHB at 5.50, YTLP at 0.67, etc. Some calculated luck too as if you dabble in stocks long enough you know the big boys how they will trick the anchovies. I have paid my share of fees from learning it the hard way. That's why I would rather stop day trading to make small gains but rather buy and keep.. less stress la.. planning to build up my stock and EPF portfolio and hopefully give me a double digit pension when I am sixty

@linges It wont drop so low. the pattern shows strong resistance at 9.55, I parked at 9.50 bcos it was the x-date price - trying my luck to pick up dead chicken la

In the chinese word, 'Danger' it comprises of 2 words - Threat and Opportunity. Also buying good stocks at a good price is like a game where you slowly, slowly catch the monkey. Not too fast (early), and patience is needed (wait for good price) otherwise monkey escapes you (gone opportunity). ;-)

@linges, I got a feeling this whole week will continue falling.. at least this week or at most continue till next week... feeling lucky so I parked at 9.50. I think got chance to pick up dead chicken.

nice.. all RED... I see opportunity very very soon - this week if trend continues. you sooze, you loose.. don't say didnt inform you. had been reserving funds to buy ipcoming IPOs but seems like too good an opportunity to pass. oh well

Blah, blah, blah... Who cares about Blackrock this and that. Please boikot Apple phone, Facebook and lets not forget Mercedez for contributing cash to Isreali in Gaza. Whatever the news and your beliefs, keep it to yourself. I am in Bursa to make money and all I know is today I got paid my dividend and can wait for it to raise to rm11.00 where I will make 100% gain and then I will cash out. To all the negative news, bless you and good luck to you.

@new8888 definitely price will drop when x date as the earnings given to shareholders. You either buy before x date and earn the difference in profit or wait till x date and scoop on the cheap. Depends on when you have available funds and timing. I have done both. On the dollar cost average I usually don't practice that when it is raising. Only do it on falling prices and only after a significant drop. Other investors may have differing strategies. Whichever hope it works out for you

The price WILL go up for the next 4-6 weeks as announcement for Interim Dividend due end May (usually last Thursday / Friday of the month). For this year, I think they will make announcement on 30 May 2024 for payout 30 June 2024. So looking at the charts, other than the few FALSE BEAR trend, you can sort of make out a situation of higher highs and higher lows. Am optimistic of a breakout anything soon building up at least until announcement date.

My guess that the price has been yo-yo of late is bcos fund managers want to scare bilis into selling and to take up their share. looking back in time, this sort of horse trading always occurs when big boys want to acquire back the shares they sold earlier which in EPF case is due to dividend distribution earlier. Anyone share my thoughts on this as well?

@dydx245, for nominee account is 3 days after dividend given.. can read this blog about Rakuten (example)

@stkoay @Mabel Thanks for the info, disappointing at 4.75% . Again why is it lower than ASB2 at 5.25%?

Well they can go Holland for all I care d. Sorry for billis here kena caught. So my gut feeling was correct after all.. IPO nowadays not a guarantee to lower share price. oh well.. hope you guys all escape too... I bought 550 lots while I bought for my wife 200 lots... managed to clear the 750 lots this morning during the brief increase to 31.5 sen as I bought at 31 sen on listing day. A good business concept but didnt expect the directors to do what they did by heavy selling on the first too given that they have a moratorium of 6 months too. Maybe they are cashing out after all. During BFM podcast they denied that they were cashing out. too good to be true eh?

@stkoay yes bro, I believe you (since Genting or Tenaga days.. you rarely speak, and when you do, a lot of forumers including me also learn, like Maybank self DRIP). As for me, enough of YTLP eye candy, gonna realised the paper gain and then monetize it by turning RE power to Tiger power.. then we both roar Harimau together!! .. btw I only Tiger Cub level only :-)

@stkoay, slight correction, the real Tigers buy quietly first then only come and comment.. haha

stkoay: The real tigers are those who seldom come here to post comment, stay behind and buy quietly :)

congrats all,.. let's all support Harimau. I already self top up earlier, meanwhile waiting for YTLP to hit 4.60 then i sell all and top up another 100 lots. now wait and see ASM1 dividend end March see if diversify or not. but still far away from brother stkoay level. his is BOSS level la .. lol

Not bad not bad.... i bought at rm5.50 on 12 Oct 2023, today 26 Mar 2024 its already rm9.75, unrealised Nett gain of 77.63% after brokerage and clearing fee. Fortune favors the brave. congrats to MAHB for getting renewed license to operate airport again for the next 45 years to 11 Feb 2069!

Got my divided this morning.. thanks Tiger!.. Always could count on you for a stable consistent return on investment

hah just sold all and made a quick 1.6% profit for holding it for 2 days. a nice 5 course tai chow dinner tonight. this stock is a potential sleeper, spoilt by substantial shareholders selling on first day causing retailers to panic for no reason. had wanted to keep this in portfolio but too bad, selfish then all lose lose together

@Steven Chan, EPF always pay into account on day of announcing the dividend rate. thats why a few days before announcing rate, you cannot access your EPF account because they are updating details into your account and unless you are 55 and above or have a minimum of 1M allowing you to withdraw in multiples of 50k each time before 55, I highly doubt you can touch any of the moniesin your EPF account

seems like directors sold a lot of shares today? any reason why?

@stkoay check out Alpha IVF which listed today on ACE market. Although not considered exciting listing on 1st day, still got a feeling that it's got potential in the medium term if you are interested to look at others.

Managed to pick up at 0.31 on listing day, below IPO price of 0.32. This stock has potential but medium term to growth in value. Must be patient.

@stkoay Noted with thanks on the advice of ASM. Just curious but if at 4.5%, would it still be better to take out for Equities or EPF then?

Dont take part in PADU, get kicked out of subsidy? since when is subsidy for M40 and T20? Menteri Ekonomi masih tidor? Dia sudah cakap pun dalam satu pod cast dulu (walaupun gurau gurau kata sambil ketawa bila ditanya dalam temuduga), kalau informasi di PADU tak sama dengan rekod mereka, mereka akan audit anda.

PADU is a waste of time. Technically I can be considered zero income, not even at B40 but according to LHDN my data shows that I was M40 before (3 years ago). They told me because I live in a nice zip code therefore I do not qualify for it. So if they already have a database, why bother to ask all of us to come on board this silly initiative?

For all you supporters, I would like to ask, did you register already and think it will help you? As long as you are or were in M40 before, you don't qualify for jack sheet.

Get ready guys... standby to top up guys once it reaches ex-price of 9.49. opportunity comes but only once or twice. you snooze, you loose. hope ASM1 results out and i can take out in time too.

@stkoay If take out, how long from ASM to transfer funds to your account last time? not closing but taking out most of it.
