If the management continue to perform well we got good dividends. Market generally slow right now but PBB all along can weather storms.

Remember you guys, l predicted that it be unlikely that it fall. It has all the qualities of a good counter. You will never go wrong if you go long term. But at the same time l will have to stress that its dividends are essential. This reminds the advise given by head master in his 80s. He started buying PBB in the early 60s when he was a young teacher.He worked as teacher in school and followed by tuitions everyday. He accumulated as frequently as he could. In the process he educated 3 of his children abroad. Today he has a comfortable home, a good car, 3 highly educated kids and lots of PBB shares at his disposal. His advise, keep buying and only sell on essential duties like education, health or parental assistance. He still buyes! So long term investors will never go wrong but also expect good dividends not only to boost their morals but also to keep reinvesting. Good Day! Sorry to bore you guys with old grandfathers stories.

PBB will touch 4.70 by the next 1/4 of 2024 before next dividend! NOTE

The investor of today unfortunately cannot profit from profits of yesterday.
However, PBBANK is still showing signs of earnings growth, notwitstanding the passing of its founder.
I own some, but agree it's still worth accumulating on dips.
I'm waiting for the second interim dividend.
Usually (not always) this is announced in Feb, but last year was announced in Dec, so, I look forward to this announcement.
Sometimes, one gets a chance to accumulate on the cheap, more than the fall in dividend, after it goes ex-div.
If an opportunity arise, we may be able to accumulate more.
Longer term, if it keeps growing its earnings, any price we buy now will be cheap a few years later.
Owners must be willing to accept slow and steady growth, as this is now the 2nd largest stock in Bursa - it can't run like a small bank anymore.

@BlackDiamond, I agree odds are very high, it will eventually hit 4.70 ... usually, just a matter of time.
However, it needs to prove it can go past 4.30 and stay above there after retesting.
If not, we may see price falling back down to 4 or below, depending on market sentiment too. The odds of this happening is a minority, but not impossible.
In general, I won't chase, however, if PBBANK falls, then, it's a stock that warrants very serious consideration to add on price weakness because this stock has a proven history and culture of eventually surpassing its previous EPS high ... this is in its DNA, even without its founder.

It's TTM dividend yield,at 4.25 price, is around 4.2%, which if compare against FD rates, is extremely good, because you own a business long term that is bound to make new EPS high. So, if you own lots of FD, good to diversify some into PBBANK. Because to me, PBBANK as an investment, on a forward looking basis (not historical basis - historically, it is clearly so much better) is still just so much better than FD ... period.

If you are a trader, you'll find PBBANK stock price movement boring ... but boring attracts very serious long term investors interested in long term wealth accumulation. They don't look at 1 or 2 or 3 year returns but much longer than that. Typically, only 1% (very small minority) of investors would find this attractive, and they make huge long term wealth accumulation. Most "investors" are not real investors.

Mr Dividend you have your points and it’s worth noting! Thanhks!

BlackDiamond

As far as prise is concerned agreed that EPF may be playing their usual games. This is possible! Of course it’s excellent buy at 4 or even lower. Actually anything can happen! Good Luck Investors! But my advise is not to borrow and buy as you may get bombed!

The ROE of PBB is 10%+.
It's P/B is just below 2×.

It is a bank. Banks in the financial sector enjoy many economic moats and also some challenges, eg Fintech.

Over the long term. We can expect growth in banking business in line with growth in GDP.

The valuation of PBB todsy, for those with a 5 to 10 years investing time horizon, is undemanding. The potential future upside should be many times that of its potential downside, over the long term. Don't predict its price over the next 1 to 3 years, the vissicitude of the stock prices in any market, creates opportunities for investors like the story shared in previous post.

Performance for PBB in the 3rd quarter is quite good in the current economic slowdown. Looks like Ah Lek is keeping the cash flow for last quarter's final divi?

Really impressive volume today.

BlackDiamond

More has yet to come Passionate! My prediction is that PBB will be around 4.70 by mid 2024. My advise is you can buy more if you have excess money lying around or bit by bit every month. You will never go wrong! Most of my predictions have been on the dot and my sure of this even if there are minor fluctuations.

Not sure why people still think there should be a premium to this franchise.
The charismatic leader is gone, the CEO is old... have you met their middle managers? They are a laughing stock.
What premium are you paying for? The book value? which will dwindle down?

3 days ago

BlackDiamond

Dear Dato,
Though you are entitled to your opinion,but I don’t really agree with you.Age is no criteria in making a judgement for the present boss and its managers of PBB.Remember old is gold.
Let me remind you that the old are normally conservative and they have a tendency to preserve funds of any organisations.Yes, I agree that PBB is a old conservative Chinese bank.I think , this bank is probably the most solid in our country and one should have a long term business plan with them.
You will be shocked that the so called old management will probably give us the best dividen by March.
Lastly stop being judgmental.Good luck Dato.

Unicorn: No Idea! Maybe someday l’ll be in the board of directors team than l will have a better picture. Ha Ha Ha! But lm quite sure that it has to be a good one or else they are going to be screwed. Whether it’s 2 or 3 per year if you sum up it has to be the same.

Good morning, some punters want fast cash. I think this is not the counter for fast cash. PBB is also not a counter for fast growth. It is for pensioners who either had the option to keep in EPF, buy PBB (hopeful that it can provide better returns than EPF in the long run) or let it sit in FD for miserable interest rate for a long time.

Why SC is not giving specific instruction for Company to make announcements. Announcing how many shares transacted can mean bought or sold
