Dear 3iii, Quote, “Safety of your capital is paramount. What can be safer than be invested for the long term in a great company that continues to grow its intrinsic value consistently over many years to come. In fact, it is so simple, just buy these companies at fair prices and on occasions, at bargain prices, and hold them for the long term. Do you need to sell these stocks? (I leave this for more advance discussion). Of course, don't buy them when they are at very high prices. Unquote”
Eagerly looking forward to your advance discussion on do you need to sell these stocks? And at what price (PE) do you mean don't buy them when they are at very high prices?

Likewise Insas hathaway is a very wise buy bcos there are huge value preposition mah....!!

(Value investors: Benjamin Graham, Buffett, Walter Schloss, Philip Fisher, Joe Greenblatt, Bruce Greenwauld, Burton Malkiel, Charlie Munger, John Templeton, Peter Lynch, Seth Klarman, Charlie Munger, etc.)
Why have practically all value investors followed Buffett, preferring quality companies?
Maybe, when they are young and start out investing, they have an excessive desire to do well and make their mark. They tend to favour the cheapest companies, which on face value offer the greatest potential upside.
With experience and maturity, and after having stepped on a few booby and / or value traps (cheap companies in bad businesses, which languish for years, failing to create value) and their economic situation improves, their tastes tend to shift towards quality, even if they have to pay a bit more for it.
KEEP IT SIMPLE AND SAFE (KISS)
Successful investing is not magic, just keep things simple and maybe follow few investing and money rules of thumb and you’ll be fine in the long run.
the books cannot teach you....everyone is different, every stock is different, every moment is different....the hormones flowing in the body is different, time scale is different.
Can anyone guess how many broking accounts there are in Malaysia: answer, it is 1-2 million, maybe even more.
Now, guess how many accounts TRADE AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR ... (you can get the actual figures from Bursa if they let you) ... around 200,000 accounts. So forget about the 2 million, most are dormant or replications.
Now, guess how many individual accounts trade at least ONCE A MONTH. Its around 60,000 only. Does that ring any alarm bells? How did we get to this sorry state?
There are slightly less than 1,000 listed companies on Bursa. Around 60% will see no trades almost everyday. That needs to be addressed. No liquidity for various reasons, no more reason to be listed.
Hahahaha Luckily I am still working and have monthly income to top up INSAS and do some trading. Qqq3 have to be very carefull with his 300K investment, once trap will become one of those dormant account.
THE COMPANY ACHIEVE ALL THE POSITIVE POINT MAH...!!
1. THERE ARE GOOD ELEMENT OF PROFIT IMPROVEMENT ON THE LAST 2 QTRS.
2. THERE ARE GROWTH ON SALES & PROFIT MAH....!!
3. GEARING HAS REDUCED DRAMATICALLY LOH !!.
4. ORDER BOOKS HAS INCREASED ALOT MAH...!!
5. LIQUIDITY HAS IMPROVED & FINANCING MORE EASY TO OBTAIN LOH..!!
ALL THESE VERY POSITIVE FOR ARMADA BCOS IT IS VERY UNDERVALUE, THUS SHORT TERM TP RM 0.70 VERY REASONABLE LOH...!!

Must understand what AK is doing good for Armada, in its offer for refinancing loh....!!
1. It offer for funding for new JV project in india....thus armada no need to hunt for funder loh...!!
2. It offer refinancing for existing fpso on going contract, thus armada can renegotiate with the rest of the financer at a favorable rates mah, this is very good for armada bcos sugar daddy AK is helping loh, unlike yinson the major owners do not have really substantial financial means mah...!!
THERE ARE 2 SIDE OF THE COIN MAH....WHEN MKT DOWN SIDE .....VALUE INVESTORS QUIETLY ACCUMULATE GOOD QUALITY MARGIN OF SAFETY COMPANY, ON THE CHEAP MAH....IF U BUY RIGHT....U SHOULD MAKE MONIES EVENTUALLY LOH...!!
TAKE INSAS FOR EXAMPLE...RAIDER ACCUMULATE IT, AT AN AVERAGE RM 0.67 BEGINNING OF THE YEAR, TODAY ALREADY UP ABOUT 20%, EVEN IN VERY BAD MARKET LOH...!!
THIS HOW U INVEST MAH....U MUST BE PATIENCE & GIVE TIME FOR STOCK TO REFLECT ITS TRUE POTENTIAL LOH.....!!
AN ACTIVE BULL MARKET WILL CREATE OVERVALUE & GORENG STOCK LOH....!!
ON THE OTHERHAND, A PASSIVE BEAR MKT OFFER GOOD BUYING & ACCUMULATION OPPORTUNITY LOH....!!
In investment it is always better look forward on armada, if u keep looking back at the past u will be obviously missing great investing opportunity on armada loh...!!
1. Armada already undergo vast impairment & writedown to conservatively clean up their books. It has brought down its high borrowing from Rm 16 billion to rm 10.4 billion and the trend u can see is obvious qtr reduction in borrowing loh....!!
2. Most importantly the latest qtr profit and revenue easily exceed yinson a rm 7 billion mkt cap company by about double, a great sign of sharp improvement trend loh...!!
3. As for sustainability armada has rm 20 billion order books another very positive sign for the company loh...!!
4.Bottom line, just focus on Armada's performance over the last two quarters you will see that it's on the upwards trends. Orderbook remains steady at RM20.2b (FPO: RM19.1bn, OMS: RM1.1bn) another RM10.3bn worth of potential extension. This will sustain the group’s revenue for the next few years.
For Potential upside, please see mikekim comments earlier... It will get even better in 2H2019 with 4 key upsides:
1) Claire US$285m compensation 2) Kraken ~US$280m partial/full write back 3) Kraken debt restructure to LT 4) Net profit growth
Hence. we can expect better result in next quarter.
5.Moving forward, Global FPSO Market is expected to grow USD+ 30 Billion by 2025.
Top Key Players: BP, Petronas, Chevron, ExxonMobil, Shell, Petrobras, Bumi Armada Berhad, SBM Offshore, BW Offshore, MODEC, Bluewater Energy Services B.V., Aker Solutions ASA, Yinson Holdings Berhad, Teekay Corporation, among others.
Armada Value Proposition 1. A Top 5 FPSO operator in the world by fleet size. Operating presence in Asia, Africa and Europe. T&I and OSV (lossmaking) are complementary businesses. 2. Unlike OSV and T&I operations, FPSO’s contracts are more bankable, providing steady visibility (long-term charters, termination protection) with reasonable project IRRs. 3. FPSOs tender pipeline is strong. Winning a job is a catalyst.
Rather than wasting time looking at gruesome companies (including those with huge debts), focus your precious time on great companies that you can buy at fair price and which you can hold for a long long time.
