The cyclical nature of financial markets, where periods of optimism can eventually lead to overvaluation and subsequent corrections.
While the bull markets are born on pessimism, grown on skepticism, mature on optimism, and die on euphoria; the bear markets are born on optimism, grown on confidence, mature on complacency, and die on panic."
In bear market, which is characterized by falling stock prices and pessimism, there is an initial period of optimism and confidence that eventually gives way to complacency and panic as the market declines further.

Compound Market Returns Do Not Exist. The Myth of Compound market returns: During bullish markets, there is inevitably a regurgitation of this myth that was contrived to extract capital from retail investors and place it in the hands of Bursa. The compound market returns myth was contrived from the myth that “markets always go up,”
Pitfall No.2: Long-term investment means over 123 years!!
The obvious problem is that bilises don’t have 123 years to invest.
When valuations were previously elevated, the future price action of the markets was negative until that overvaluation was reversed.
WHEN” bilises start their investing journey is incredibly important to future outcomes
The real-world damage that market declines inflict on investors hoping to garner annualized 8% returns to compensate for the lack of savings is all too real and virtually impossible to recover from.
When bilises lose money in the market, it is possible to regain the lost principal given enough time. However, and most importantly, what can never be recovered is the lost “time” between today and retirement. “Time” is exceptionally finite and the most precious commodity investors have.
Drawdowns from portfolios during declining market environments accelerate the principal bleed. Plans should be made during up years to harbor capital for reduced portfolio withdrawals during adverse market conditions.
Over the last two decades, two massive bear markets have left many individuals further away from retirement than they ever imagined.
When expensive, they ask u to buy so that they can dispose their tickets. (When cheap, they quietly recollect- that's why they are called sharks. Sharks play a different game, compared to bilises)

Many promoters like to say YTLP is unstoppable when the price is up. What happen when the price is down?
Value Investing Principles: At the core of successful investing lies the practice of value investing, favored by many of the world's greatest investors. This approach involves a keen eye for companies trading below their intrinsic value, emphasizing a margin of safety. Investors employing this strategy aim to purchase assets when they are undervalued, ensuring a cushion against potential downturns, and ultimately sell when they become overvalued.
Long-Term Thinking: In the fast-paced world of finance, successful investors distinguish themselves by prioritizing long-term thinking over the allure of short-term gains. Rather than succumbing to the volatility of market trends, they anchor their investments in businesses with robust fundamentals and enduring competitive advantages. By steering clear of chasing fleeting opportunities, these investors cultivate portfolios that withstand the test of time, built on the foundation of sustainable growth and resilience.
In light of the current housing market dynamics, the furniture sector appears relatively stable with limited downside risks. While immediate growth might be modest, a significant surge is improbable barring unforeseen circumstances.
Opting for medium-term investment opportunities, Liihen and Homeriz emerge as promising choices due to their potential for higher returns and efficient asset utilization. Conversely, Po Huat and RKI face challenges due to their substantial cash reserves, which could hinder optimal asset deployment and hinder returns unless effectively managed by their leadership.
According to Bloomberg, of the 16 analysts covering the stock, 14 have “buy” calls on Genting while two recommended “hold”.
Worth noting is that Genting’s share price rally comes after Maybank Investment Bank Research said its target price for the group could be revised upward to RM9.40 under the blue sky scenario where TauRx’s hydromethylthionine mesylate (HMTM) drug is approved and the pharmaceutical company is valued at US$15 billion (RM70.23 billion), up from US$1 billion currently.
HLIB has upgraded its target price for Genting to RM7.12, from RM6.96 previously, due to the group being undervalued as it does not sufficiently capture the potential recovery of both its subsidiaries, Genting Singapore Ltd and Genting Malaysia Bhd.
Its vice president of research Thong Pak Leng said the banking sector continues to offer opportunities for investors, supported by robust earnings resilience.
"Loans growth remained decent circa 5-6% while net interest margin (NIM) will remain stable for the year amid a more stable interest rate regime," he told reporters during a virtual media briefing on Rakuten Trade's 2Q2024 market outlook.
Within the banking sector, Rakuten Trade picked RHB Bank Bhd, Malayan Banking Bhd and CIMB Group Holdings Bhd for their solid dividend yields

For iCap shareholders who want to sell, take advantage of the situation by queuing at high price as close as possible to NAV, or even at a premium.
Why? 1. Despite being redflagged on governance and lousy fund management/policy in i3 forum on daily basis, COL is still buying. 2. Since COL keeps buying even the row with the fund manner, it means they need to buy, so take advantage when demand is there. 3. If someone is bidding for the rights to slaughter our goose and if lucky we get a fair portion of the egg but none after that, wont you want a premium to it? So never sell at a discount price.

That's the essence of Dan Zanger's strategy- be patient, watch the the chart has completed, testing in batches to buy in if the chart turns out to be ladder (start selling when it turns into snake)

Ladder you climb up. Snake you slide down. That is the rule to play Snake and Ladder.
**Regulatory Oversight**: Collaborate with regulatory bodies to monitor online forums and identify suspicious activities. Implement strict regulations to prevent fraudulent behavior and hold perpetrators accountable.
Employ moderators to monitor online discussions and promptly remove any suspicious or fraudulent content. Encourage users to report scams and suspicious behavior to the appropriate authorities.
Develop algorithms to detect patterns of scam behavior, such as repetitive posting of misleading information or suspicious trading activities. Use these algorithms to flag and investigate potential scams.
pig butchering scam is the latest scam, they(scammer) will sweet talk the victim into trusting them then lure them into investing into crypto currency and keep fattening the pig by persuading the victim to invest all their saving and borrow more money to invest into this crypto currency, eventually when the victim has invested all their money and borrow as much as they could, the scammer will then run away with all the victim's money.
Investing with a long-term perspective has historically proven to be more successful than attempting to time short-term market movements. Time in the market, rather than timing the market, allows investors to benefit from compounding returns and ride out market fluctuations.
Diversification Benefits: Instead of trying to time the market, investors can focus on building a diversified portfolio across different asset classes and sectors. Diversification helps mitigate risk and reduce the impact of market timing errors.

Are you still holding any UEMS shares? I bought all the way down to 19 sen. I made quite a fortune but still hold 10% and not even bother to look at the share now. All free shares.

No. I sold off at much higher prices earlier and bought Ogse shares in 2019. In 2020 April i switch to gloves And by end 2020 i switched all to palm oil until now as long as Cpo gone above Rm3500 to Rm4200 a ton
When Uems dropped near 20 sen i keyed in a very low price to buy some around 20 sen but didn't get any. Never mind. We make some and we missed some
But as long as we do make then we are the 5% minority that can survive and prosper out of the other 95% that failed
Each of the top guru will be approached and paid by sindicate to give talk & promote at some points i.e. currently Calvin got $$$$$ to promote rsawit (without this warning sign: For the pro only. Bilises are advisable to stay away)

Everyone is free to promote stock and making handsome profit in stock market.
When you teach people to buy you must also teach people to sell.
History has shown in HY, Dayang, JAKS, Supermax, HiapTeck and Costal. Non stop promoting day and night when stock crashed all disappeared. Anyone advised forumer to sell when the price overpriced?
Promoters also need a basic ethical.

That's the problem with the nonpro- they always put the idea for buying before selling. The latter is more important when come to talk about the first 3 rules in stock market i.e. Do NOT lose money (times 3)

Thanks to fed Gold broke 2200 as expected. Oil otw to 90. 100 to be seen later. Palm oil c u at 4500 and 5000. From the moment Fed increase rate all commodity retrace by 30 to 50%. Palm oil also retrace from 7k+ to 3300.(50%) Now when fed give rate cut expectation until eventual rate cut. We will see commodity to apreciate by 20-30% depending on cuts. For palm oil we can see range from 4k to 6k. 2024 onwards is commodity superbull year.
Beside SOP, TAANN and SWKPLNT above RM2, Jtiasa coming to break and join RM2 which the most gem now...TSH PE 16.73 for RM1.15.
But there are some laggard, KRETAM PE 12.89 but only 59.5cent which is super undervalue and CEPAT 12.26 for 78.5cent. Worth to consider since CPO is above 4100 now.
