We haven't seen any speculative play on this counter for a long, long time.

"I prefer it to go $4"
You have to be more realistic. At RM4, the PE would be 6 and the dividend yield 10. Who is going to sell at such a low price to you? Below RM5.50 is already such an attractive price.

Hap Seng's debt is not super high, Tenaga's debt is super high. As long as it is able to turn in profits in excess of RM600 million yearly, it should be able to service its debts.

Based on its earnings and dividend payout for the last two years, RHB Bank should be trading at well over RM6 a share instead of under RM5.50 a share.

Without foreign selling, we won't have the opportunity to buy RHB Bank at below RM5.50 a share. Just buy without hesitation.

Still not far from its 30 year low. May drop again if UMNO doesn't fare well in the coming state elections.

RHB Bank is now trading at really attractive prices. Collect when nobody wants to buy and sell slowly when there is a stampede to buy.

Cannon Tan, why make things so complicated? You should compare the dividend yields over a period of ten years, not just two years to suit you. B Plantation paid 0.5 sen dividend in 2020 and 1 sen in 2019.

Only less than 3% of my portfolio, nothing to be scared of. You would miss a golden opportunity to make money.

After dropping to RM3.03 on the 19 June, its lowest level in over 9 years, it has staged a modest recovery. I am quite confident that its downtrend has ended.

Already very satisfied with Maybank's current yearly dividend of around 58 sen a share. Anything extra is a bonus.

Between a company which has a higher ROE but whose share price moves within a very narrow trading band whole year round and another company with a lower ROE but fluctuates widely, I would still choose the latter. Eco World was trading at under 65 sen just six months ago.

Back to below RM3.50 again next week. Don't have high hopes.

Pick up its shares when it is really boring and slowly dispose them of when it becomes interesting.

Keck Seng's major shareholders are solely responsible for its poor performance.

Foreign selling was responsible for RHB Bank's poor performance during the first half of the year. Long term investors shouldn't worry.

As expected, the staged mini rally didn't last long.

@RWG = Russia Wagner Group. Local mercenary. Support Perikatan Nasional to drive KLCI down to 800 points and Ringgit to US$1=RM6, Sing$1=RM4.50.

Genting investors are worried, bank investors are taking it easy.

Price moves up without a corresponding increase in volume, so rally not sustainable. Another flash in the pan again.

Hap Seng is a well diversified company with interests in plantation, property, credit finances, automotive, trading and building materials. Its earnings for the past 8 years were quite impressive with an average EPS of almost 40 sen. Average dividend payout was 31.25 sen a share. Such kind of company won't collapse so easily.

"High rate era coming !"
FED would start to ease interest rates starting next year, all other countries would follow.

Maybank is such a safe investment that investors do not require daily updates. Buy whenever it dips by several per cent.

I have been waiting for it to go up but don't have high hopes now.

Let's hope its rally is not a flash in the pan again.

Keck Seng achieved record earnings last year but its share price stays stagnant. That seems unusual. Prior to 2020, it used to trade at well over RM4 a share.

"Laughing to the bank or the bank laughing at u ??"
I am laughing at your ignorance. You are negative just about everything.

Now trading at only half its NTA. It went up to over RM1.70 some years ago but too bad, I didn't take profit.

Average EPS over the past 8 years was almost 40 sen and average DPS was 31.25 sen. Just don't see its earnings this year would suddenly plunge to well below 30 sen a share. It still earned 30 sen a share in 2020, considered a very bad year.

Might dip below RM9 tomorrow. Opportunity to buy again.

Miss RWG, you have the right to support any political party but this is an investment forum, not a political forum for you to propagate your political beliefs. You can always post your comments to Harakah.

"Thanks for holding the falling knife !"
Who knows, the falling knives could be made of gold now. Those who catch the falling knives could be laughing all the way to the banks later on.

RWG has contracted mad cow's disease. Hopefully he could be cured.

@success2628 KLCI won't break above 1,800 points any time soon, certainly not this year or next. RHB Bank's share price is still 30% higher than its lows reached in early Nov 2020, excluding dividends. Get your facts right please.

Tiger is roaring again this morning. Keep it up!

Check the facts before you post any comment. Maybank hasn't dropped to historical lows. It is still slightly higher than its price at the beginning of 2020, not including the over RM2 dividends it has paid.

EPF should come out strongly to support MRCB instead of letting its share price to struggle at such low levels.

RWG, high time that you visit a psychiatrist.

"perikatan nasional win, u can save alots money'
Hei court jester, if PN wins, investments will dry up and you would even lose your court jester job.

Worst likely over for Hap Seng. Hurrah!

"Lu sokong PN, lu mesti "potong" ya
Potong, jangan tak potong ya"
He is a lonely court jester looking for publicity.

"Taiko can survive in the bad market"
@pang72, filthy rich people can survive however bad a market is. He is still worth over US$1 billion. Those speculators who had used all their savings to gamble on tp can't survive.

I think it has to stay above RM3 for several weeks before one can say that its price has stabilized.

I don't think Maybank is content with being the #1 in Malaysia. UOB, the smallest of the three big Singapore banks, is still much bigger than Maybank.

Merging with another bank is not attractive enough. Better to be taken over by a bigger bank like Maybank.

Good earnings for the quarter ended 30/4. Another 2 sen a share dividend to be paid on 20/7.

@BILLC, this nut has been deliberately posting rubbish comments for several months now.

It was a tongue in cheek comment. You think a sensible person would come out with over RM10 million to invest in a counter whose future is in doubt?

Opportunity strikes but once. RHB Bank has gained little from its recent low, only 13 sen but CIMB has gone up by almost 50 sen.

Small investors have been taken for a ride. Maybank certainly won't do such kind of thing.
