For that you just need to look at YINSON performance. 4 billion company to 8 billion company easily.
For my QL returns( 1 billion dollar company to 11 billion dollar company in 10 years), this year I have received far more dividends than my initial investment in 2009. As the growth story had not ended yet (thus confidence to hold at 50 pe), I don't find any reason to jump in and out of stocks, as I look to the business, not the change in share price. If the business is doing good, I will receive share price increase and dividends increase naturally.
For me safety of capital is also a huge huge requirement. Even in volatile bursa my shares in ql has never had a big drop that made me unable to sleep at night.
Also kc Chong math is inaccurate on INSAS performance. As someone who also does not have a crystal ball and unable to know exactly when to buy a stock, all I can do is try to understand the business and add more every quarter. As this is a more natural progression of investors ( rather than the guy who can buy and forget for 10 years), my record of INSAS would then become far less exemplary ( for the period of 17 July 2009 to 17 July 2019). In other words, lumpy.
If you could not predict the trading profits from IPO and m&a in 2013, how could you have know how the business will perform 10 years from now?
Answer: do you think a company with new management (Wong gian kui) and whose stellar investments are in startups like tribecar, numoni, dome and sengenics, will they be able grow the business in the future?
Thank you

P/S: Please tell Philip will he expect QL to give him 100% return within a year. Only qqq3 claims to achieve so by hoodwinked greater fool buying into his story and buy the share from his hand. 18/07/2019 1:10 PM

Math is math. Although math is very useful in investing, but math is not investing, and investing is also not math.
Which part of the math I put forward is inaccurate? I would like to correct it in my post if it is grossly inaccurate.
No point to argue on the adventages or disadvantage of asset play vs profit growth play, since both are FA. Its just different investment strategies suit for different investors' preferences and risk appetite.
So how about ALL of your recent picks, sape up half cent every day, all talk bullshit. Past performance of you don't say anything no worries, yinson up from 4 billion to 7 billion any comment???
What's your pick my young friend?
Oh I forgot you have ZERO portfolio, but you talk the most.

Its just like Philip keeps tellilng the advantages of buying shophouses with constant rental yield & capital appreciation. But it doestn mean the ppl buying agri land with fair/ discount price is fool, especially the one with good location near to the city. Eventhough the return is uncertain, but it might be lucrative when the time comes.
So whenever u invest always ask yourself where is your margin safety anchored ??
Is it profit growth ??
Low PE ??
Strong Cashflow ?
Strong dividend ?
High NTA ?
Huge Hidden Reserve ??
High cash holdings ??
If the anchored u highly depended on for your initial investment falter, n no longer valid, u better run quickly & swift b4 too late loh....!!
U quickly lock in your profit & cut your losses fast loh...!!
If the sell not trigger, u hold & ride your gain loh....!!

Just take a look at Hengyuan.
Then you will realise how dishonest, silly and shameless raider is.
Even he cannot trust himself!
Today Hengyuan is 5.10.
So long for his abilities, his margin of safety principles, his verbosity, and his big troll-ey.
Those who have listened and acted on raider's comments on DLady, Nestle, PBB, Petdag, Padini, Guinness, LPI, Aeon Credit, .... over the last 5 to 10 years, would have been harmed financially. All these stocks have been proven to be great investments with great returns. Also, it meant they were all great under-valued growth stocks with huge margin of safety, available at high reward to risk ratio at their given past prìces. All these companies have grown their intrinsic values over time.
(It is more fun to write praising another. I very much like to do that but can only do so on so few occasions here.)
Nothing to shout about loh...if u hold margin of safety stock 20 yrs u get the same result too mah...!!
But with margin of safety stock u get additional few rounds of good return mah....!!

I try to keep an open mind in case there are some gems of wisdom by other investors but over the years, I had been programmed to never bother to read anything stockraider says nowadays
On the Contrary Raider & gang are the victim mah...!!
Take for example our Margin of safety stock insas were attacked by people who claimed long term investors like 3iii & Philip relentlessly mah....!!
This attack is done , despite the margin of safety value investor Grandmaster sifu Ben Graham, highly recommend margin of safety as the central core of investment and to avoid overvalue stock like plaque loh.....!!
U NEED TO UNDERSTAND LOH...BEN GRAHAM TRAINING ADVICE OVERVALUE STOCKS LIKE NESTLE & QL WITH PE EXCEED 50X SHOULD BE AVOIDED AT ALL COST MAH....!!
IF THESE STOCK PRICE HAD CRASHED, AND RETREATED TO AN UNDERVALUE LEVEL, THEN RAIDER WILL SUPPORT, IT GOT MARGIN OF SAFETY LOH...!!
>>>
If only I can be convinced of raider's ability in implementing his margin of safety.
I have already listed some of my stocks which have HUGE margin of safety which raider shamelessly cannot admit his past mistakes. He asked people with these stocks to sell them because there was no margin of safety. However, over the LAST 5 TO 10 YEARS, raider was proven wrong. These stocks have grown their intrinsic values over the years.
It is obvious raider knows little about margin of safety principle. If only he is humble and honest to acdmit his stupidity and mistakes. But then we know raider, he is uncouthed.
Margin of safety is a principle of investing in which an investor only purchases securities when their market price is significantly below their intrinsic value. In other words, when the market price of a security is significantly below your estimation of its intrinsic value, the difference is the margin of safety. Because investors may set a margin of safety in accordance with their own risk preferences, buying securities when this difference is present allows an investment to be made with minimal downside risk.
Example of Margin of Safety
As scholarly as Graham was, his principle was based on simple truths. He knew that a stock priced at $1 today could just as likely be valued at 50 cents or $1.50 in the future. He also recognized that the current valuation of $1 could be off, which means he would be subjecting himself to unnecessary risk. He concluded that if he could buy a stock at a discount to its intrinsic value, he would limit his losses substantially. Although there was no guarantee that the stock’s price would increase, the discount provided the margin of safety he needed to ensure that his losses would be minimal.
For example, if he were to determine that the intrinsic value of XYZ’s stock is $162, which is well below its share price of $192, he might apply a discount of 20% for a target purchase price of $130. In this example, he may feel XYZ has a fair value at $192 but he would not consider buying it above its intrinsic value of $162. In order to absolutely limit his downside risk, he sets his purchase price at $130. Using this model, he might not be able to purchase XYZ stock anytime in the foreseeable future. However, if the stock price does decline to $130 for reasons other than a collapse of XYZ’s earnings outlook, he could buy it with confidence.
INSAS IS A GOOD EXAMPLE OF MARGIN OF SAFETY INVESTMENT LOH...!!
Aiyo..halo halo..go back insas forum lah...everywhere also gaduh same thing...insas mati pucuk lah...according to Jaks promoter cik sarifah...lol...aiyoyo...kikiki
Posted by Connie555 > Jul 19, 2019 10:09 PM | Report Abuse This Kay See only know how to choose a particular period for that stock to prove that it is better than others. What if those people who bought at Rm1 at 2017, until now they lose about 20% nvr even recover yet after 2 years. I also know how to pick a particular period to talk about share
Well, my comparisons for short-term, mid term and long term return of investing (not speculating)in a stock in this article were by comparing the returns over a one, three and ten years period from now, not trying to choose a date to suit.
Share price of those three stocks I used have changed by more than 500% over the last few years, which one you like to use?
If you are not agreeable to my benchmarks, you may use your own periods to dispel it. Please do and show us rather than just making a random statement like that.
Or if you prefer to use the peak and trough price of each stock, I know you won't be able to get them, I will provide you wit those prices which I took time to obtain from the Bursa graphs, maximum about 6 years, for your ease of reference as below,
Company Price Peak Trough Best gain Worst loss Insas 0.800 1.300 0.400 100% -38% Jaks 0.795 1.800 0.400 99% -56% Sendai 0.460 1.700 0.400 15% -73%
To help you to understand them which I am not sure you could just by looking at the table above,
If you take the peak prices of $1.30, Insas has lost 38% to-date, compared to the loss of 56% and 73% respectively for Jaks and Sendai.
If you talk about gain from the lowest price for the last 6 years, and interestingly, all stocks have the same lowest price, Insas gained 100%, the same as Jaks, but 15% for Sendai respectively.
Take your pick, or go to do some data mining to come out with your own figures.
Margin of safety based on Intrinsic value is theoretically true but this intrinsic value should not based on merely net tangible assets value. It should based on the value that can create in future... earnings....
Calvin Tan is not wrong, in fact he make very good profit on some shares based on this investment concept mah...!!
>>>>>
...on some shares.
Calvin is less modest. He made few hundred percentages on nu.erous shares.
The only problem is it is too difficult to believe.
For example, after about 10 years, his GSB rose to 22 sen and he suddenly appeared claiming he has now made a few hundred percents on GSB.
As I have mentioned already, the majority, if not most of the value investors failed to capture any gains in their undervalued stocks. Why? They have already sold these shares way before some of these shares show gains many years later. Patience is so so important. Also, many of their undervalued stocks stayed undervalued and are what we termed value traps.
Looks like calvin is one who hold onto his undervalued stocks forever. He must have hundreds of these and it is just fascinating and also unbelievable to see him declaring his hundred percentages gains each time one of his old recommendations have a temporary and non sustainable run.
Truly a fascinating and unbelievable story, to me at least. Raider is more credible in this respect, in resurrecting less number of his dead stocks to claim he made a killing after umpteen years of non activity.
