Astro mgmt will go for low price to buy.. the lower d price, the more they earn cozs others buy @ $3. Thats why the 4 CEO of Astro buy in 900K lots @ $2.7x.

Astro closed @ $2.84 at 12pm.

Astro mgmt might buy @ $2.84 depends they greedy or not...if greedy, they might wait until more drop...

Any idea how many lots Astro staff buy using margin loan ?

As i know max is 120 lots.

Definately many DJ, TV channel hosts invest also...

If for muslim staffs tmrw need to raya some more... pity them...

Morning 9:30-10:30 price change 0.02-0.05, if those buy in 100k lots even earn 0.03 already earn pocket money $3million ($30 x 100k lots).

It's easy for me to say this because I don't have any and there am not facing the same situation as those who do. But maybe we should just step back a bit and not look too closely at what's immediately ahead of us...?

Although I feel the 3.00 IPO is overpriced, at the same time it's not grossly so. Quite unlike Facebook where even a relative newbie who knows just a bit of fundamental analysis would confidently opine that its US$38 IPO was too high. No one can deny that Astro is one of those companies that can rely on regular revenue in the coming quarters and next few years, at least. They only need to try increase this while keeping operating costs as low as possible.

The projected 2-3% dividend yield is low, that's true (one can do better with YTL or YTLP, for instance). But for some institutions, that might be tolerable enough, especially those that want to invest in `safe' companies.

It's difficult to try and see ahead when we are glued to the trading screen, watching the second-by-second transactions. Many people have just a one-to-three days timeframe, like a contra trader - that's too short! But if we have a longer timeframe and horizon of, say six months - after the dust has settled down and with the year-end window-dressing period, traditional Chinese New Year rally etc. who's to say it can't reach the 3.40 TP as projected by some analysts? Or more?

There's no guarantee that will happen in the next 6 months, of course. But we all know things can change very fast in the stockmarket when there's momentum. Seemingly `useless' counters can turn to gold. Doesn't look like it *at the moment* with Astro. But that's also how it was was with Digi (4.01 not too long ago), Axiata (5.20 on 3/4/12), Scomi (0.21 some weeks ago - would have made a 100% gain had you bought and held on).

In stock exchange,long terms only means 4 high end wif extra $,d issue is current many suffer margin loan,long time of interest& shortfall cash top up..no point even after a yr up to $3.10 even..That's happen for all shares depends when d day come..that's why I say save d best for uncertain last.

3 cent - 10,000shrs - rm300
- 100,000 - rm3000
- 1,000,000 - rm30,000
Depends on whether you say 100 full lot or not.!

1 full lot is 1,000 shrs bro

saufi74, please read Steadyeddy's remarks, thats means RM3million cozs 1 full lot is 1,000 shrs...100k lots =300million shares

RM30 x 300 million shares =RM3million earned..!

Tks Steadyeddy to breakdown for saufi74 for more clear..

If u insist that 300million shares of 0.03 earn is only RM3,000 only ,then is too bad...lets all conerstone investor laugh the whole day...

Posted by steadyeddy > 2012-10-25 14:52 | Report Abuse

The reason we argue today is becoz we do trading ourselves on line where we key in no of lots x 100
If you are one of those traded thru broker then you would understand

I used to trade NYSE online,NYSE is common to use LOT, if no of shares. Is more direct if RM30 x 100,000 lots...some more if US trade in USD1,000 = USD$1.00, easy for me to count direct when convert to MYR.
