Uncle Calvin, noted on your good intention. Maybe you can give some advise on Pmetal. I have being in and out Pmetal few times and made good profit. Out now totally and intention to be in again after bonus and split. I am also doing a study of all 3 call warrants, only warrant issued by Pmetal compensated with extra warrant, so a bit scary to buy the wrong warrant. Thanks kcchongnz for so informative article.

BLee,
I didn't follow up on Pmetal. Sorry, since I didn't study it I can't comment yet. Best person to answer would be KcChongNz
Posted by king36 > Oct 29, 2016 09:11 PM | Report Abuse cheated All stocks are bought in 2013 meaning no stocks bought past 3 years in 2014, 2015 & 2016. Can trust? You got a point. I would wish KC could provide a recent list as this would brighten our current depressed atmosphere.
I have shown you numerous times that value investing works very well in Bursa in my experience. I have provided you with the portfolio stocks many times published years ago and their excellent returns so far, to prove that in my very own experience it works.
Yet you still say "Can trust" ah?
When you do not trust value investing, what good is it to give you a list of potential stocks based on value investing?
My advice is forget about believing there is tooth fairy in the stock market. There ain't no free lunch in investing, in fact, for almost everything. Arm yourself and you, and only you, is the one who is dependable for your investing success.
Kcchongz, dont keep rechurning your recommendation track record over and over again lah. Havent you heard of the saying "you are as good as your last trade"?
FA and TA are all historic analysis. I think we need 'CA' Current/Constructive Analysis. I am doing that for Pmetal. I think I can get a good price after 'ex' price as it will be more share floating around, especially warrant c as too many given 'free'. My 2 cents. A good company is like running a Marathon, we need to look at long term and sustainability. At present, Pmetal is such a company unless some good competitor come along.

Market goes in cycle. An established and well run company will survive and prosper. A good company with little debt undergoing recapitalization by using a little more debts, is often a good management decision.

Thanks for your statement which is true to a certain extent.
You see how difficult is it for people to get it, even I repeat and repeat again about the proven success in fundamental investing, with facts, figures and all the evidence, from my very own experience, yet they still can't see, nor understand, or refuse to understand, that FVI works, and it works very well.
All my experience in success in FVI, yes, all of them as published, one strategy after another of FVI, provided out-performed hugely. They are all mostly based on what have been conveyed in annual reports, financial statements, historical you may say, but they worked very well.
Do I have to be a snake-oil salesman to give you prediction of the future to be successful in investing?
Calvintaneng, your comments in my threads are always most welcomed because you may be over-zealous sometimes about your stocks, in my opinion, your comments are generally fill with facts and very relevant specially when you warn against some overplayed stocks.
Owners of those stocks should, instead of calling Calvin names, take a deeper look at what he says, find out more, and may be it is beneficial for you eventually. That is the kind of attitude we as small retail investors should possess, take notice of opposite views, rather than having the cognitive bias of confirmation bias.
I really don't know why your comments here should be flagged.
it is Calvin who is having the "cognitive confirmation bias" you said.
look at the way he commented about Gadang, other than Capital city that he called a white elephant, what other fact and data that he had provided. did he read the agreement of the JV? did he evaluate the financial status of Hatten int ptv ltd ? did he knows how JV work? did he knows how Gadang unlocking the value of the land that was bought and now fully paid , at a price of 35M in return of a profit sharing of 334M for a period 5 and a half years starting from 2015. why going round bull-shitting creating fear at all corners of i3 he should stick to his bina puri where know more than talking rubbish about thing that he doesn't know much

Yes, Sifu KcChongNz,
A Big Thank You.
Syndicates flag me as I am exposing them and their ploys.
Btw,
When I first joined i3 Forum I knew nobody here. Only My Johor Sifu MG9231 told me KcChongNz's writing got value. And he said OTB must go and learn from you.
Anyway, all who contacted me through Whatsapp & email in Spore all these days for teaching I directed them to contact. I don't have the time nor the nitty gritty detail.
I really hope i3 people are not conned by syndicates
if this shameless personality is not given a big slap on the face I am not surprise , one day he will tell you that you value investing strategy is outdated, his wild guessing is more truthful

=========================================
If you read a lot of financial books, you will discover that people actually have very short term memory especially when it comes to financial memory.
Imagine if one day KC stopped writing completely, within 1-2 years, nobody would have remembered him, not to mention value investing. Do you know value investor is actually only a minority group in the market?
As much as KC keeps repeating like a broken record, I think it is a necessity to do so. Maybe KC you could add some spice into it, by add some new fresh element? or maybe talk some up to date topics like how felicity commented on Gadang?
Posted by GG3261 > Oct 31, 2016 02:51 PM | Report Abuse I am a fans of KC and cold-eye, I do not know how to be careful in my investment I only know I must invest in a company that I can sleep well
In my opinion, Gadang is ok company. It is nothing great, and the management, ok lah, but again is nothing that great.
If you invest in Gadang just a year ago when it was selling at RM1.50, yes, I agree with you, you should be able to sleep well. I did invest in it too, and I also invest for some of my friends too.
But with the private placement, the bonus issues, the share split, the misinformation about the Kwasa Land development, and the heavy promotion, share price shot up to RM3.30, in a short time.
Furthermore, someone also told you to buy more, because he has bought hundreds of millions, because the value of your share has increased and you can use more borrowed money to buy more, etc.
Don't you feel something is not that right?
I may be wrong, as I sometimes do, or rather often do. But in my school of thoughts, we care more of downside than trying to win big, which in my opinion, seldom materialized.
talk is cheap, icon can sold house , sold car to buy camcorp, airasia.... do you believe he will keep gadang and sold his house and car icon had sold his gadang long long ago......
How high can go have to base on your own study especially the momentum of the company, shares split and bonus give. If the price over the value of the company then later kena trap gao gao.. kikikiki
Posted by GG3261 > Oct 31, 2016 03:17 PM | Report Abuse KC, thanks for you advise, I am safe with the downside of gadang, don't worry i just can not tolerate some people talking rubbish here
In life, take from others what is good and ignore what you think is not good.
For Gadang, whether Calvin is right or not, we will wait and see. But I don't think he talks rubbish about it.
Calvin doesn't like Gadang because of capital city, he called this project white elephant. do you mean , in your eye, capital city indeed an white elephant ?
Sell car sell house, sailang, all these words are a way to say go big into it. It doesn't mean I buy only airasia and nothing else
I only invested about 20% of my money in airasia and it subsequently ballooned into 40%. I mentioned this before in the forum. Check out Hippo Buy Signal blog article for details
I held Gadang from 1.20 and sold all the way up. sold last batch at 2.90 on last Friday
I dont lie. I am not Calvin

KC,

I don't know much about Capital City. I believe many who have bought Gadang also don't know much about it too. We as retail investors have limitations of what we know.
But with what Calvin said, whether he lied or not, but if i were you who is so committed to Gadang, I will seriously take a good deep look at it.
if he is focusing on the corporate exercise , somebody's buy call and heavy promotion..... that is ok and I will consider it as a good piece of advise nothing to feel bad about and won't see my name appear here but he is showing some funny pictures this morning that i consider a nuisance without proper investigation
even tho i am considered a typical newbie, i noticed that the amount of opposition on calvin is actually quite astounding.
plus i am really uncomfortable with the way he bashed AAX without any basis being given and the recent gadang stories on bad luck names n all. some stories may be right..but what on earth does bad luck names have in our analysis of stocks n companies to buy? my god....i also noticed he just luvs to spin stories n stories upon stories. its quite entertaining ....lol
if you have a lot of ppl saying u have done a lot of wrongs...it will probably mean that it is.
i totally agree with icon on this calvin story teller...
plus i really find it ludicrous n downright funny to boldly state that bjcorp is the berkshire of asia and palm oil to go up to rm6k with out any proper due diligence...excellent story teller

a chinese saying,
one type of rice , all sort of people
ah boon not interested in gadang because it is a share promoted by his enemy KYY and he is jealous of OTB . so do not hope to hear anything fair and unbiased from him regarding all the stocks recommended by KYY or OTB
Calvin refuses to believe Gadang can perform well because of capital city .
he is convinced that houses are difficult to sell now a days , not only capital city but the whole property market in Malaysia and Singapore. He had seen this with his own eyes.
But he is a good christian with a careless heart.because he did not do his homework well before providing his golden advises not to invest in Gadang .
why i said he is careless?
1. He did not read the agreement of the JV of Gadang and Hatten for the development of Capital city. you may view the agreement through the following link:
if he had read the agreement carefully with an unbiased heart (hati terbuka), then he would have convinced that whether capital city a "white elephant" or "not a white elephant" , Gadang is guaranteed of the profit sharing of some RM334,000,000.00 or a steady income of about RM55M - 60M per year, every year for a period of 5 five and half year starting from 2015 untill 2021
Gadang did not have to pay a single sen for the development , just a piece of land bought a price of RM 30,500,000.00. all the development cost is borne by Hatten
2. Calvin did not check the financial status of Hatten international pte limited company. if he had done that,then he would have convinced this capital city project for Hatten is just a "sap-sap-sui" case.
Conclusion :
Capital city is a Goose that lay the Golden eggs for Gadang ,
how can you let go easily a Golden Goose with a small gain.
God will never give you a second chance if you do not treasure the first one.
Calvin replies:
Pissanggoreng or pissang sudah kena goreng?
Calvin good Christian with careless heart?
Calvin has studied both Hatten from Singapore & Gadang's position.
I think Hatten has tried to wear a Hat Too Big For Its Own Good.
Now of course Gadang is providing the 16.2 acres land worth Rm21 millions for the Capital City JV project.
Share of Rm334 millions windfall of JV with Hatten? I think you prepare to forget it. There is a blindness of colossal proportion if people are buying into the Capital City story.
Mow that Capital City is being built in stages Gadang's own 16.2 acres land are liable for quit rent & assessment. It will be more and more from MPJB later. Just like they slapped a Huge Tax on UEMS!
So in stead of a profit from Capital City Gadang better be prepared to pay more land taxes. That will be a wake up call later. 31/10/2016 10:17

It is entirely your prerogative to agree or disagree with my statement that up-to-date information is vital to decision making in selection of shares, as historical financial data are all factored in the share price.
Prediction of the future and success in investing are two entirely different matters.
You don't need a snake-oil salesman to give prediction of the future. You would be better off to consult a clairvoyant, so long you are happy and believe in it.
Even if you correctly predicted the future that doesn't mean you are a successful investor.
We are well aware that even the most successful investors in the world will time and again get it wrong. However, that doesn't mean that he/she is not a successful investor.
So, why would I expect you to become a snake-oil salesman to give me prediction of the future?

As a retail investor, there is limitation of what he can do, the most is to base on annual report and published financial statements, and/or industrial report, other analysts reports etc. To get other information like management plans, future contracts, prospect of the industry etc, those are the job of a professional analyst. This information is important, but is it really so "vital", a must have in order to be successful in investing?
And tell me, how many of those professional analysts, in percentage wise, with so much "vital" information at their disposal, have done very well?
I have shown many times in i3investor, really successful super investor such as Walter Schloss of deep value investing, Joel Greenblatt of Magic Formula, Coldeye based on his 5 yardsticks extracted from annual report, or ven Buffett of his famous metric of return on capital, etc. Does anyone of these tell you that predicting the future is very important for your investing success?
"historical financial data are all factored in the share price."?
I used to use to argue with others that the above of market efficiency is always true when I was studying a master degree in finance, because I was brain-washed. After reading many books and writings of those super investors, and from my own investing experience in the last 10years, some of which I have shared all over i3investor in the last 4 years, I have completely changed my view.
Buffett used to say, "If the market is efficient, I would be holding a tin can in my hand now."
"Even if you correctly predicted the future that doesn't mean you are a successful investor."
Why not? The question is how many people can do that?
"We are well aware that even the most successful investors in the world will time and again get it wrong. However, that doesn't mean that he/she is not a successful investor."
Who are those very successful super investor who time the market, get them wrong, and be very successful? What is the percentage of them?
Anyone do have analysis for coming year 2017 which company have good growth perfomance in fundamental of real market?ur Sharing will be appreaciated...
With or without Capital City, the so-called golden goose, Gadang still a viable and reliable contractors in the good books of MRT and LRT besides other government building contracts..Capital City is a bonus..
