@Probability @Johnzhang @Sslee @Zhugeliang @Hng33 Not sure whether this will be the better example to explain marked to market thingy… You purchased a bond RM1 mil at 3.8% interest p.a. with a tenure of 3 years. Due to OPR movements, investors’ risk and reward expectation, the market yield of your bond increase to 4.3% and hence causing the market price of your bond now dropped to below RM1 mil I.e. unrealized marked to market loss. However, if you hold your bond until maturity, you will still get your 3.8% fixed interest p.a., with all this marked to market gain or loss will eventually reset to zero on the maturity date as you will get back exact amount principal repayment of RM1 mil from the issuer. Fair value of derivatives consist of 2 components which is the spot element and forward point (basis swap spread) element. Spot element is like the 3.8% interest element, basis swap spread/cost of hedging is like the market expectation which the unrealized gain/loss will eventually reset to zero on the contract maturity date. This is why I said losses on cash flow hedge will be recycled to pnl when the settlement is due, whereas losses on cost of hedging will eventually reset to zero upon maturity.
Isn't the target price $19.50 when the second quarter results come out? ooi isn't your report written like this? I sold my car and sold my house and went into Hengyuan.
