If I am not mistaken, according to Magic Formula (Thanks for kcchongnz posting, or else I wouldn't know this formula), PE 8 is a reasonable PE for a company that grow at 0% annually.
PE below 8 is definitely good for a net cash company like padini
at the current price of 1.38, the pe is 12 and DY =7.25%
if PE = 8 , then the price is just around 80sen , DY is then 12.5, with the cash holding of about 2M , I do not see padini has any problem to pay 10sen dividend as promised.
please sell to me now at 80 sen, I am most willing to buy. 1 M shares I still can afford, if you got 10M , I can easily gather a few friends to buy from you. my contact number is 0123435681
The most important is the notion you form about its business. PE is an indicator (not exclusive) of the worthiness of money swapped with the piece of business sold to you. In the future if the business is good then its dividend is gonna to be good also. Afterall valuation is an art than science: intrinsic value vs market price should be the most important aspect considered.
These two gentlemen have formed their notion about Padini. What about you? Have you look into the cash flow of this company? what is its gross profit margin, net profit margin, ROE, Current ratio, financial stability, owner earning, microeconomics, DCF value, reverse DCF value, integrity of management?
Problem is , I myself aren't excel in that subject too... I'm still learning and probing the subject by trial and error method.
I would appreciate someone whom excel in this "portfolio management" to share some tips with the public.
______________________________________________________________ The reason I say money management is important because some investor enlightens me.
You could score a 150% gain in one counter (5% allocation) but your total portfolio might be in losing position because of the losing-performance of your largest holding.
yes, Money management is the No.1 most important element in trading.
there are books teaching on this subject on how one can manage their exposure tru beta reading and proportion of funds invested. pretty complicated. but one can form their own simple rules to protect the unexpected.
The difference between a successful trader and a losing trader has a lot less to do with the successful trader’s ability to pick winners than you might think. All traders are going to experience losers and lots of them. It’s a fact of the business.
A winner, however, embraces the understanding that a large element of any one trade is randomness — in effect, any given trade is, on some level, a gamble. Losing trades are inevitable, and the winner takes that inevitability into account. Many longtime successful managers have done it with a winning percentage just above 50% and even the best traders are right only about 60% of the time.
It isn’t necessary to achieve that success rate to profit in the long-term, though. It isn’t even necessary to be 50% right (see "Win some, lose some," below). The depicted scenario assumes a 40% win rate — in other words, eight winning trades out of 20. The key to making a 40% win rate profitable is to structure your trades so that your winners profit at least twice as much as your losers lose — and that your initial stake can withstand the inevitable string of losses.
many yrs ago esprit was a hot cakes, a must have by all fund mgr globally. due to trend change and their inflexible response, it bcame a brand nobody want to associate, as they cheapen the product thru heavy discount in tier 2 shopping area. (sell to the poor) its reputation is further tarnish and began the downfall of its share price. it drop nearly 90% of its value from peak.
padini is walking the same path as esprit, just more pariah.
Hi Mr bsngpg, long time didn't hear from you, I also chose to invest in stock which gives reasonable DY. Mr Market will decide on the price of the stock, irrespective of fundamental, eventually, I think, an equilibrium will strike. Hope so. Hope to get in contact with you.
Mr nokenzo: very nice to hear from you too. You are one of the people with good manner in public forum. Please keep up. We need to contribute our best to create atmosphere of positive energy. Thks
Padini and Parkson are 2 counters I never touch, simply because every time I pass by their outlet, can hardly see any customer . Just wonder how they survived ?
