3.8m shares done at one price 4.30 during pre close.

linges & DianaOoi most welcome, good sharing for all Tigers to Huat together.

Yes, Maybank pays higher yield than EPF!
My Maybank dividend will be used to DIY DRP instead of topping up EPF.

Based on last 10 years results, current EPS of 77.55 sen is the highest.

Looking at the latest few quarters after the new CEO took over, Maybank is now a Growth Stock...revenue is up, profit is up and dividend is also up :)

@linges, that was historical numbers, analyst normally calculate fair value based on projected forward PE.

In 2022, management gave a KPI ROE of 10.5 to 11% when NTA was 7.13
For full year 2023, company achieved a EPS of 77.55 sen, which is 10.8% ROE.

This year, management KPI ROE is 11% based on latest NTA of 7.84.
If management achieved KPI (which they normally do), EPS will be 86 sen
...at 12x PE, fair value will be 10.32.....
...and if they maintain 77% payout for cash dividend, then DPS will be 66 sen.

"This includes stepping up coordination with government-linked companies and government-linked investment companies to encourage them to repatriate foreign investment income and convert that income into ringgit more consistently, playing their roles to support the ringgit amidst challenging global environment," BNM noted.

When GLC repatriate foreign investment income back to Malaysia, what do you think they will probably buy ??

...huat ah :)

@pang72.....Tiger dividend 170 ringgit nia :p

There are pump to dump....
There are also dump to accumulate....
So, you need to do home work to see which is which....haha....

Price at current level, funds are sitting on profits.
Funds do not net buy without selling, if they do that then price will move up in a straight line and they will be buying very expensive.
Selling at these level will bring profits and at the same time bring down the price for a better/lower entry level later.
So, in short, they trade even if they are accumulating...
EPF now also do that intra day....

pang72 untung.
I rugi 1 sen liao :p

Big play on blue chips by BIG funds today.
Time will tell what all this play is about.

Happy weekend, big dividend coming.

Ex date will be 14 days from announcement....will probably receive payment by late March.

Based on the last few, announcement on x n payment date will be made within these 1 to 2 days.....problaby by this evening 29th.

The Board of Directors has declared a single-tier second interim cash dividend in respect of the current financial year
ended 31 December 2023 of 31.0 sen per ordinary share, amounting to dividend payable of RM3,740,755,180 (based
on 12,066,952,192 ordinary shares issued as at 28 February 2024).
Pursuant to Section 8.26 of the Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad, the single-tier
second interim cash dividend will be paid no later than three (3) months from the date of declaration.
The book closure date will be announced by the Bank at a later date.

Shareholders who hold a lot of shares will profit if there's DRP.....but it dilutes future EPS.
I still prefer all cash.

@newbie2019......announced already....all cash dividend of 31 sen

EPS 19.8

DPS 31

PETALING JAYA: Malaysia is in a sweet spot to enter a prolonged bull market, says prominent fund manager Tan Teng Boo.

According to the founder and owner of icapital.biz Bhd, the benchmark FBM KLCI could potentially rise to 2,500 – 3,000 points in the next three to five years, citing it is a “realistic target”.

Speaking at a media briefing on the market outlook yesterday, Tan said his optimism over Malaysian equities was premised on the country’s strengthening economic fundamentals and political stability.

“Now is the time to buy Malaysian stocks. We are looking at the beginning of a major bull market,” Tan said.

“Our market is cheap and our currency is cheap,” he added, noting that he expects a greater inflow of foreign funds to the Malaysian equity market in the coming days to further lift the FBM KLCI.

RHB analyst expects
.....NII likely to be stable QoQ... We expect 4Q23 NII to be relatively stable sequentially, with potential NIM pressure from higher funding cost cushioned by loan growth. 3Q23 loans grew 2% QoQ and 5% YoY, which was broad-based across both domestic and overseas markets, and Maybank had been optimistic that this trend can be sustained in 4Q23

.....… leaving non-II as the key driver of the operating income trend. We believe fee income could stay robust on healthy card- and loan-related fees. The overall non-II trend, however, would be driven by the non-fee component, ie treasury & markets, and, to a lesser extent, the performance of its insurance arm. The drop in Malaysian government bond yields QoQ could offer opportunities for it to realise profits and help lift overall non-II QoQ and YoY..

@newbie2019, welcome to Tiger Club :)
QR will be tomorrow 28th, lunch break, PC with analyst in the afternoon.

Yes, big local institution Funds, like EPF n ASB should buy more local shares.

Earlier BNM governor Datuk Abdul Rasheed Ghaffour said the ringgit is undervalued.
