where's all the fan boyz jumping up and down shouting bumi this bumi that? suddenly all quiet. humble pie hard to swallow? still think its a good idea to have 51%? history have shown that there will be mismanagement when you give entitlement to undeserving people. as long as company is well managed and the returns are there, why bother whether you are white, black, yellow or brown. this is not the first and very sure wont be the last. LOL

lol... oh ye of little faith

Can Raja Bomoh help to locate?

SC cannot find??? got check satellite in space or not

where is that Mabel and her ships? Bermuda Triangle swallow the ships? Cat bit her tongue? No more Meow Meow Meow who's a strong supporter or Serbadak?

Where's the ex-Chairman who says shoplot auditor? Mana sudah lari?

Where's Belanghijau, strong supporter? hiding where?

yes sifu tolle, waiting to pump in more during next cycle cause my average is low, at worst will pump in at next ex-date

its DRP

there's a old Chinese saying that 'the more you explain, the more guilty you are'

I will revisit Tenaga later stage when it is less volatile. Also EPF divesting its Tenaga portfolio for more MBB must mean something too right?

I made the call after considering all negativity issues with Tenaga. also consistency of MBB dividend for past years

@choysun yes bro. I sold at 9.28 after it reach my cut loss point before it dropped further. my remisier agreed that MBB is a better defensive stock too

@stkoay Thank you to you too as reading your past posts and your sharing of thoughts gave me the nudge I needed to switch from Tenaga to Maybank. Yes, I took a big hit but thats Investment for you. you cut loss in one counter and switch to another. In no time, I will make back whatever the shortfall.

I agree with sifu stkoay. there is a famous saying that 'to succeed you must know the rules of life and playing it well' . Life itself is a gamble. example, why do some people like Uncle Lim can be so rich while others only talk and are jealous? I can share with you a story about my ex-boss who's related to Genting Uncle Lim family by marriage. He shared that when the government wanted to develop Genting Highlands no one wanted as many challenges and dangerous including communists, mine fields, very costly and yes, wild animals like tigers. Long story short, he took the challenge and develop it and are now reaping the fruits of labor. Same here, we can buy MBB when its on the dip or just observe in disbelieve about opportunity lost. forget about all the white noise here and there asking you to buy plantation and what not. at the end of the day, fortune favors the brave.

Carpe Diem!

@TreeTopView thanks I stand corrected, yes its every 3rd Friday. sorry for the typo

yes Zxvvbn is right

@lionel messi, its on every 4th friday of the last month of every quarter of the year. so its 4 times a year.

today is Quadruple Witching Day. Monday will open sharply down again. the last time it closed higher was June 18 (also the QWD).

hhmm... 10 secs before break, thousands of bids suddenly disappeared... nice bait

wow, Maybank suddenly got second wind and jumped up 8.17

@risekita8 yes, gonna monitor first, not gonna have knee jerk reaction and be impulsive since I have standby funds

@stkoay thanks for clarification. going to monitor the next returns and decide. meanwhile my spare funds still available to pump in if it reaches RM8 or below

@stkoay thanks for the info. thought it was the same as EPF. meaning if i withdraw all my funds (zero balance) will i still get the interest on amount before I sold all?

@geniusraider yeah I know the risk. but am hoping they will extend as the surrounding units are not that cheap either. Am hoping that being a good landlord to them is enough compelling reason for them to continue on :-)

Sifu Stkoay and Tolle, thanks for sharing. Looks like my assets are not maximised.

Most of my funds parked in fixed income 70% (53%EPF, 11%ASN, 0.7%UT&PRS and 1.0%insurance savings), Equity around 21% and balance 9% at cash).

My best performing asset is surprise surprise... Insurance savings plan where Great eastern (30 year old asset) yields between 7% - 15% annually while AIA (10 year old asset) yields between 6% to 8% annually. ASM1 yields 4.25% while 4.0% from ASM2. EPF ard 5%+ annually , UT and PRS around 3%. Worst performing is Equity at 4.63% (including Dividend and net Trade proceeds)

Might need to liquidate my ASN after dividend declared next year.

@geniusraider I have a unit rented out since last year. Rental was lower (even thought location was good) as tenants squeeze due to MCO but to mitigate this my condition was for them to rent 2 years instead of 1 .. at least I wont have headache for the next 2 years since I am accepting a slightly lower rent. hopefully they will renew come next November.

Sifu Stkoay and Tolle, just wondering, does your portfolio shareholdings include your EPF too (assuming you are working)?

@arb18 dont forget Sumatec!!!!

Buy and Hold

@stkoay I hear you. yes, fortune indeed favors the brave.

@stkoay agreed that the stamp duty wont really matter if we keep long term and collect dividend.

for current trend I observe that for Tenaga and Maybank I feel that big boyz are shaking the mango tree. they will pick off those fruits that fell from the tree, thats why you see the back and forth going on daily.

the trend I noticed for both (more so for MBB) is that every morning it goes up a little to trap anchovies, than mid afternoon the selling pressure comes on, presumably FF starts work that time. than miraculously the stock price will shoot back up during closing. we have all seen this move before and we can call it window dressing or naught, that's the current pattern that I foresee will carry on at least until just before Xmas where the price will fall in view of Western Countries taking a long period of holidays. But that's only my observation which I could be wrong altogether, haha

nonsense comment

3.30pm, FF's turn

nice increase for past 2 days. unfortunately I missed buying more at 8.01 while waiting for my Tenaga funds to clear

@stkoay yeah, pulled the trigger as Tenaga had (in my opinion) a lot of baggage at the moment. Even my remisier average down at 9.20 too before it continue to dropped further and agreed with me that MBB is a better defensive stock and had done the correct thing to sell down Tenaga.

I have not bought MBB yet after diversifying from my Tenaga shares. I parked my Tenaga funds at 7.80 but may buy anywhere between 7.90. Meanwhile if Tenaga drops to 8.80, I might consider it again

it will drop below 9.00. luckily I cut loss and sold 9.28. might pick up once LHDN issue is over.

you do know that you need to shower daily don't you?

damn, the price is really free falling for all blue chip stocks. this stamp duty increase by 50% is really bad for business. the fall in price is not due to Omicron its due to bad for business economic policy thats scaring all big funds. I foresee it dropping further and likely settle by month end due to the 1 Jan 2022 dateline - possibly sooner. best to stay at sidelines and wait see and pick up when the situation clears up. I am expecting KLCI index to drop further down to perhaps the 1450s level. but i hope that I am wrong.

Price dropped firstly FF and local institutions are selling due to poor prospect for the stock at the moment. the IRB tax case has been postponed several times and now scheduled for Jan 22 with another IRB tax case involving Malakoff appeared at the wrong time. Tenaga ESG issue targeted to resolved in 5 years considered a long term issue - at least that's what my remisier shared. discounts on electricity wont effect much as the government will allow Tenaga to pass the increase costs to consumer by increasing price - having said this, the next renewal period is currently being reviewed.

On this note, the way the share price has been dropping is worrying - it will be very difficult for it to go back above rm10 without FF and EPF participation. I believe it will be some time before the price will go back up.

sue here, sue there,.. question is can dead cat bounce??

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ERqbQlrq05Y

yes... anytime now... I think Tenaga too. hoping for good news for all... about time

wow... i was only off the grid for only a week (moving house so relocating maxis line la) and so much has happened in MBB i3 forum.

@sifu tolle just ignore the 'you know who' la.... MBB price will fluctuate for sure. stay true to your believe as I mentioned before MBB price is one tough cookie, it will keep bouncing up and down. it's normal some cash out, some take opportunity to collect. BAU. no need to respond to any troll who loves to trigger for attention all the time.

@sifu stkoay slow month surely. next exciting date to look forward will be in December 17, BESIDES the usual holiday fare.

no matter how many who put MBB down, the price still cannot be shaken below 7.99 this stock is one tough cookie

this is a test case. you think court will give landmark ruling? not impossible but very unlikely

@supersinginvestor if you ask my advice, you better go hang out at either in Serbadk or SCIB or Kpower. since the first 2 suspended, go to Kpower and try your luck there. damn good value woh

finally, the retail investors here are right. this is a long term stock. a very long term stock

in the end, the real losers are the retail investors.. no one else. big fund wont give 2 hoots, they just manage the fund and move on from losses. what about small retail investors? can they move on?

did you know that anybody can sue anybody? question is can win or not? if not why sue? i was told that cases can drag for many years. guess who's paying for legal fees? guess who stands to lose if this drags on for few years?

going up... something brewing... this week is QR release

next week most probably 26 Nov, QR3 will be out. in anticipating the price will shoot up.

next week QR3 will be out. 26 or 27 Nov. here's hoping for the better results
