Still The No. 1 Rule For Stock Market Investors: Always Cut Your Losses Short

Judo masters begin not by learning how to throw, but how to fall. They practice this skill until it's as natural as breathing. No matter how many times they're flipped, they can rise to fight again.

Highly successful stock pickers go through similar training: They must learn how to cut their losses short. This means selling a stock when it's down 7% or 8% from your purchase price.

Sounds simple, but many investors have learned the hard way how difficult it is to master the most important rule in investing.

No one wants to sell for a loss. It's an admission that you made a mistake. But if you can set your ego aside, you can take a small loss and still be fit enough, both financially and mentally, to invest the next day. Cutting losses quickly prevents you from suffering a devastating fall that's too steep to recover from.

Meow Handsome Sslee...

The principles of Judo offer valuable insights that can be applied beyond the martial art itself. Judo’s approach to winning aligns with successful investing:

Adaptability and Resilience: Judo masters learn how to fall gracefully and recover swiftly. Similarly, successful investors understand that setbacks are part of the game.
Just as a Judoka adapts to their opponent’s moves, investors must adapt to changing market conditions, economic shifts, and unexpected events.

Cutting Losses Short: In Judo, knowing when to concede a throw or hold is crucial. Sometimes, it’s better to yield and avoid injury than to resist and suffer a defeat. Similarly, successful investors recognize the importance of cutting losses. If a stock is declining significantly, they sell early to limit losses rather than hoping for a rebound.

Risk Management: Judo practitioners assess risks during a match. They calculate the probability of success for each move. Investors should also evaluate risks. Diversification, position sizing, and setting stop-loss levels are essential risk management techniques.

Timing and Opportunity: Judo throws require precise timing. A well-executed throw catches the opponent off guard. In investing, timing matters. Recognizing opportunities (buying low) and knowing when to exit (selling high) are critical skills.

Leveraging Strengths: Judo leverages an opponent’s strength against them. A smaller Judoka can defeat a larger opponent by using their momentum. Similarly, investors should play to their strengths. Understand your investment style, risk tolerance, and expertise.

Emotional Discipline: Judo teaches emotional control. Reacting impulsively during a match can lead to defeat. Investors must remain disciplined, avoiding emotional decisions driven by fear or greed.

Continuous Learning and Improvement: Judo practitioners train relentlessly to refine their techniques. Successful investors also learn continuously, adapt to new information, and improve their strategies.

Remember, just as a Judoka rises after a fall, investors can recover from losses by staying disciplined, learning from mistakes, and persistently pursuing their financial goals. It’s all about managing excpectation, the rest is technology

The best person to answer this is Tony himself. Yes, Capital A Berhad, the parent company of AirAsia, has indeed taken steps to dispose of its aviation business. Here are the details:

1. Disposal of Aviation Business: Capital A has entered into a non-binding letter of offer with AirAsia X Berhad (AAX) for the proposed disposal of its aviation business. This includes AirAsia Berhad (AirAsia Malaysia) and AirAsia Aviation Group Limited (subsidiaries in Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines, and Cambodia).

2. Strategic Move: The goal is to streamline the group and facilitate a business-centric valuation of separate entities. By selling the aviation business to AAX, Capital A aims to create an aviation pure play under the AirAsia brand. This move is expected to unlock greater value for shareholders.

3. Benefits: Focused management and a clear strategic direction will enhance the aviation business’s capacity for growth and profitability. Separating the aviation business allows non-aviation businesses within the group to be recognized for their intrinsic value and potential.

4. Exit from PN17: Following the disposal, Capital A shareholders will become shareholders of the two strong listed companies (aviation and non-aviation). The decision aligns with market preferences, providing clearer understanding and valuation.

5. Regularization Plan: Capital A is in the final stages of finalizing its PN17 regularisation plan. The group aims to submit the plan to Bursa Malaysia in the near future. The plan involves creating a pure aviation play and lifting the PN17 status.

In summary, Capital A’s strategic disposal of the aviation business aims to improve financial stability and create distinct entities. Exiting PN17 involves implementing the regularisation plan and focusing on both aviation and non-aviation ventures

The risk of war between Iran and Israel has never been this high before. Dow Futures are down about 450 points and Nikkei 225 is down over 1,000 points. South Korea and Taiwan are down over 4%. I suppose many investors are now seeking refuge in Dividend Banking stock which excel today.

KLCI is the only Stock Exchange in Asia Pacific that is holding the GREEN Banner. The rest of Asia are having period.

At the local front, Capital A continue to be battered by the rising oil prices. Capital A may face higher jet fuel costs amid rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East according to Mabel’s Maybank IB analyst. Jet fuel spot prices have remained close to his projected figure of $105 per barrel at present, hovering at $104/bbl, he notes. However, he expects that for every $1/bbl increase in jet fuel price, that would widen or trim his estimate for Capital A's core net loss or profit by about MYR50 million and his sum-of-parts target price would decrease by MYR0.03. He thinks Capital A may pass on the higher fuel costs to passengers without affecting load factor too much, given limited competition. Maybank maintains a buy rating on Capital A and keeps its target price at MYR0.94. Shares are 0.8% higher at MYR0.655. Support 1 at 67 sen has been breached and Mabel is waiting to collect Capital A starting from 64.5 sen at Support 2.

Let's hope some nice uncles and aunties will sell next week

Airlines continue to be gruesome businesses.

Long term stock investors shy away from this industry.

Those with the ability to gain from investing in these "special situations" can profit from it. Those without the skill should just look for 1 foot hurdle to jump. 😀

There is a difference between investing and speculating. There is also speculating intelligently and speculating foolishly. Gambling is different from investing and speculating.

Fernandes to be CEO of Capital A for another five years

By Chester Tay | theedgemalaysia.com | 2024-04-24 12:43:17
KUALA LUMPUR (April 24): Capital A Bhd’s board of directors has decided to extend Tan Sri Tony Fernandes' tenure as the chief executive officer for another five years, and as a strategic adviser to the airlines business, which is poised to be merged into AirAsia X Bhd.

“That's the start of many announcements over the next two weeks,” said Fernandes at a briefing here, but declined to reveal further, due to regulatory restrictions.

“From today onwards, there will be a bunch of announcements over the next few weeks, and then everyone will be clear.

“The plan is obviously to get out of PN17 (Practice Note 17 status), to have a strong aviation group, and to start growing again. That's the plan. [Priority] number one [is to] survive; number two [is to] bring back all the retrenched employees; [and] number three is to strengthen the balance sheets of both companies, Capital A and Aviation,” he said.

Capital A is in the midst of a series of restructuring to reverse its negative equity of RM10.47 billion on its balance sheet as at Dec 31, 2023, including merging its airlines business with AirAsia X and listing its branding business in the US.

“Investors want clarity, which we couldn't give for two reasons: One, we didn't know when the borders were going to open; and two, we couldn't tell when we were going to get out of PN17. We had an enormous handicap to other airlines, so we haven't been able to sell our story as well.

I saw operating cashflow increase, I saw interest payment on-time, I saw debt slowly payoff (Sabah Development Bank - RM500m debt settled & other lease payment repaid), I saw new expansion plan and the plan is making huge progress (MRO Sepang hub tentatively completion ard June 2024), I saw new financier supporting the company, I saw much more thing that ordinary people and accounting nerd dont see.

The surprising part is, Story got balls to lead the company for another 5 years and the board also AGREED.

Under MFRS 16:
(i) On the Consolidated Income Statement, expenses which were previously included under aircraft operating leases will be replaced by finance costs – lease liabilities and depreciation of right of use asset;

(ii) On the Consolidated Cash Flow Statement, operating lease rental outflows, previously recorded within net cash flow from operating activities, are classified as “net cash flow used in financing activities” for repayment of principal of lease liabilities.

Net cash usedin financial activities: (863,635)

So is someone looking at the same financial figures above and conclude the facts as:
operating cashflow increase?

RM500m debt settled?
& other lease payment repaid?

Seeing just the figures cannot be the truth facts, you need to understand how the financial accounting figures are presented and what its actually mean/fact.

Lease liabilities
The lease liabilities amounting to RM18.7 billion includes deferred aircraft leases of approximately RM2.3 billion. The lease liabilities are supported by ROU assets of RM12.1billion.

The Group had completed the restructuring of a total of 161 aircraft leases up to the date of this report including the waiver of lease rentals in arrears, as well as reducing future lease rates with a corresponding longer lease term, where necessary, and return of aircraft.

Know what is deferred aircraft leases of approximately RM2.3 billion mean?

An accounting figure is past figure, you are associating the PAST figure to current development and neglected all improvement thus far. I saw all your explained is figures and the PAST truth financial facts. A fact is a fact, nothing more.
You keep telling fact (CAP-A financial very bad), followed by explanation from the fact (CAP-A figures how, PN17, very weak), then you opined CAP-A counter very bad and will pok gai anytime. To me, you are humble historian that shares PAST figures and FACTS only. If you are banker, you are at the right track for being risk adverse, but even Citibank is lending to CAP-A, so ~~~~~~

Myself, is associating the PAST figure to current development and all improvement thus far.
I can tell financial is bad but there is figure improvement, I saw new business formed and ready to expand, I associated the new alliance strategy with potential.
I am giving fact (CAP-A figure is improving) and explanation (evidence that debt / interest paid, revenue & cash coming), then conclusion (not a bad counter because improvement, future vision and CAP-A is making huge progress) this company will survive.
