Their local Sabah division owes me money, and their support office in tanjung aru plaza always empty and no one around all the time. Plus no management arm around most of the time. The hydro project announced but site is empty until today ( I was there last month).

This leaves a bad taste in my mouth. And the middle East projects are also very shady from my point of view. I can't monitor any connections and ongoing projects resolutions.

I'm not investing in companies which don't for my scuttlebutt criteria.
It may be very profitable, but for me the risk is high.

Pass for now.

When is profit not a profit? When it is stuck as a uncollectable trade receivables that has to be impaired.

Think about this logically. A Sabah timber company turnaround with a market cap of 20 million getting a 20 million contract from a company that sounds like a big company ( but is actually not), changing its name and hiding is tracks, and owner changed to different new young directors with a product you can get for cheap in almost every country these days (except in Malaysia where ERP still sounds sexy. Please. Its just another management software.)

Why are people buying now and pushing this microcap up so high?

Why not wait until they convert the announcement into "real" cash and pay a dividend, buy back those 1 billion units of stocks and treat shareholders like partners?

My advice:

Kids who buy stocks like aturmaju should just stop buying stocks and just stick to mutual funds or fixed deposit.

Understand your INVESTMENT RISK first, then buy the stocks. Not calculate your PROJECTED PROFIT first, then buy stocks.

Big difference.

I have no idea who will win in the long run, but a price war will impact margins, and the company with lowest margins always end up the loser.

When you go and buy a bottle of beer the price is RM10. When you go and buy 10 crates of beer the price do you think will be RM10 each as well? Obviously not. There are many intricacies to buying stocks, most importantly patience, discipline and consistency.

In this case, one must stay invested in the stock market to gain the 100k in the first place ( or make a lot of money elsewhere). Speculating in this manner (call it what it is) is insane and a crazy way to introduce new investors to a high risk form of speculation.

Putting 99% of net worth in a warrant gives you added complexity. On top of needing to understand how the company will work out in the long term, you also need to understand the momentum of the warrant. People who buy needs to understand the time value of the warrant, what is the market Volume, the market volatility and most of all the RISK involved.

That will determine everything.

If you take it theoretically ( for me it became a painful reality),

If you had 10 years of 85% portfolio growth, then followed by just 2 year of 85% losses, you would basically have burnt all your profits in one sweep. Very stressful way of "investing".

You need to understand risk. Especially if you don't get to enjoy dividends.

Having said that options ( warrants) trading is a very good tool for making short term money, if you accept it is a trading and speculating method.

I have friends who do this on a daily basis and they have a great career.

They would however put capital risk protection as their first and foremost mechanism. No trade should be more than 5% of their capital invested, as the example I gave was what really happened. They would hold 35-40 stock options and warrants so losses are tempered by gains, not the other way around.

Safety first.

Derivatives have always been a weapon of mass financial destruction.

The best method is always to build up a position in a growing good company slowly, building up your confidence in knowledge and understand the competitive advantage as you go along. When you are able to recognize the difference between permanent loss of business advantage and capability and a temporary problem in the market, a slowly profitable 15% consistently over a long time with added dividends is far more preferable, especially when sleeping at night becomes a priority.

You can either call it luck of call it skill ( I think luck and timing plays a huge HUGE part), but I think staying invested in the stock market and holding on and reinvesting in wonderful companies really make a difference. You just need to be able to monitor and aware that wonderful companies will also slowly turn into bad ones sooner or later. There is no such thing as buying and holding forever, you need to buy and hold but minoring quarterly is the key to everything.

For me I keep it very simple. Not that I am smart or anything, but because Warren buffet started it first and it made very much sense to me. We need to blot out noise and stick to details that matter. Profits, revenues, debt, cash, assets form the quantitative. management capability, industry growth prospects, business competitive advantage, market volatility forms the qualitative.

The news that foreign investors are leaving Malaysia in droves has caused some irrationality in the market allowing me to buy good stocks at cheap prices.

The global index, stock market performance, China USA relations I'm sure is a very real thing, but it will not affect much the price of chickens I buy or the make me stop driving cars in Malaysia.

In similar fashion, a good company will still run and make money just as a bad company will continue to lose money.

In the long run, it doesn't matter how the market reacts, as long as you continue to buy good companies and keep being invested in owning those good companies.

The trick is what's to recognize when you have a temporary business problem and a permanent loss of competitive advantage.

If we look at the technical outlook, there was a sharp drop in oil barrel price but moving averages, shougi and preseasonal factors will show that the oil price will range between the Brent 70-80 per barrel range. Of course momentum may change and the falling star(douji) may occur to bring the price down to the 50-60 range, which is within the 3 year and 52 week range. We shouldn't see anymore blitzing at 40 range anymore as this oil "war" has been costly for all involved. Of course if we look at longer term >5 years the crude oil price is on the uptake, and if we have a far right contrarianistic outlook we can project up to 100 per barrel, which will be a good beginning for the new pH government and all involved.


I project the oil barrel price to hold steady at 50-100 range, with a lookout at 40 for the short term, at 100+ in the long long (long) term. I base this on the total population of the world which is increasing, the usage of energy ( oil is still the cheapest form of generation or kWh) and the overall prospects of the industry.

Based on calculations and a report by MIT, even if all the cars in the world became electric. The energy usage will grow to undocumented levels in the next 50 years, and oil will still have it's place ( until everything gets used up).

Sorry for the satirical outplay, but I think you should put this into the too hard pile. There is no way we can be right (or wrong) in any specific prediction of the oil performance.

Many institutions and research companies have been wrong on this prediction thing smarter than you or I will be. George Soros made a lot of money in the previous oil crisis, but loss big in the next one ( as well as sold all his Google, Apple and Intel shares).

YINSON : FPSO charter

TOPGLOV: glove manufacturing
PCHEM. : Petrochemicals
STNE (NASDAQ) : fintech

Foreign funds have been fleeing Malaysia since 2014.

1. Who cares what the contra is. In many countries ( even in nasdaq) where I invest there is no such thing as contra. Everything is moving day faster and more efficiently. You put money in interstate l immediately, you get money out immediately. It will not change the business fundamentals of bursa much.
2. Maybank makes 2 billion in earnings every quarter. If the loan goes up in smoke, will it be a continuous drag on future mbb earnings? No right? It will be at most a one time thing. The share price will definitely drop, causing mbb shares to be very very enticing. Look at salad oil crisis for amex. Same theory. Most likely same investment pattern. You have me another chun Chun buy call in Maybank this year.

3. Bond selling and foreign investor fleeing has been going since 2013. Here is real data.10 years for you to understand where we are in the market cycle.

https://tradingeconomics.com/malaysia/foreign-direct-investment

Changing of government will always bring the stock market down. As long as you did not buy on margin, you will be ok. The drag on all boats will be unfortunate, but that means you will have a big discount for you to buy ( I bought gkent, pchem using the same methodology). In the long run with a transparent, new government with a interest in making the country ( not themselves) successful like in Singapore. I am VERY VERY optimistic in Malaysia's long term future. After have only one side of the coin for more than 50 years, I am excited to see how the other side will perform. If you can buy it cheap now, when Malaysia overall business starts to turn out better ( we are already in the worst position in decades), at the bottom we can only look up.

Be patient, if the foreign investment leaves, when Malaysian companies starts performing, they will be back with a vengeance.

4.& 5. The main reason for them leaving is because of low confidence in Malaysian business and stock market. There are many many value traps in bursa, many crooks, many goreng counters. Once all the bad companies are flushed out, companies like talamt, protasco, sumatec, karambunai, destini, t7, basically all of Calvin tan value traps are squeezed out and delisted, proper healthy companies will be left. After this great housecleaning, you will have more minority shareholders investing in good performing, dividend giving companies instead of all the really wonderful Malaysian companies being privatised left right center and nothing for us smallholders ( weida, old town coffee, bernas, etc).

Imagine if you were a foreign investor, would you invest money into North Korea?

Confidence and reliability is key. I look forward to a Malaysia spring cleaning.

I don't invest in JAKS, and the possibilities of Vietnam working out( in verify if Malaysia) is definitely not in it's favor. So the risk in investing too early in an endeavor which is not producing energy ( and more importantly profits) but has a fixed debt payments is definitely there.

But on the other hand every dog has its day.

Calvin buys 50 random stocks. Definitely not all of them are bad. He always has one or two with spectacular results while the other are always declining and losing money long term so Calvin can build on his creative accounting of being "successful".

Who knows? Maybe JAKS will have it's day in the sun as well.

No one can predict the future, what we do is understand the risk involved. Some use margin of safety. Some use deep value assets. Some use business competitive advantage. Others use historical revenue/earnings growth performance.

That's why investing is so interesting.

Comparing a country to tiger woods is such an exercise in simplicity. Whether or not tiger woods gets sponsored, sink or swim does nothing to the country.

You must understand that there is no physical thing known as Malaysia. The rocks on one side of the border is the same as on the Singapore or Thailand end.

A country is purely a mental fabrication. We "believe" in Malaysia, therefore it exists. We need "Malaysia", because in times of distress we need an institution that is designed to protect us, care for us and sustain us.

You say we should all govern based on meritocracy. But your assumption is only if it does not affect you.

Would you ask for a government bail out if TM goes bankrupt? Or TNB goes bankrupt? Or Maybank (or whatever bank you use) has lost all your savings and increases your house loans interest rate by 5%?

What would happen if tomorrow you could no longer withdraw money from your ATM machine? Would you then argue on meritocracy or would you ask for that government bailout?

I believe that pakatan harapan has done an excellent job in doing the best they can with the mess they have. They are only touching the tip of the iceberg of how badly the country is being managed.

Calvin you do know there is a difference between bonds and stocks right? If 32 billion of bonds are taken out of the market, where do you think the companies are going to get their funding? From the stock market. When the bonds go off the market, companies will be more inclined to get more funding by doing more rights issues and preferred shares and warrants sales in the stock market. To increase that interest in buying private placements rtc, more and more companies will have to entice customers and companies by doing share buybacks to increase the price, raise dividends to make it more attractive to hold, do preferred shares (ICULS) to raise money.

The only companies I would be worried about are those penny stocks and dent ridden companies you like do much.

There are two ways to look at it.

Probability is right from an academic point of view.

I prefer the wb, cm and Seth klarman way.

In investment you don't have to swing at every ball. You can wait and wait and wait for the perfect ball, and when it comes you put everything into it and swing it out of the fences.

The trick is to identify the perfect ball.

My method is simple, when I connect with the ball I swing with full extension, adding more weight and strength as time passes, keeping your form straight and true.

If you do the math, if you can do non spectacularly 20% every year return for 8 years on a few carefully chosen stocks, your returns in the long run is going to be better than someone who did:

+15%
-10%
+70%
-17%
+69%
+47%
+30%
-25%

The math checks out. When Einstein called compounding the 8th wonder of the world, he knew what he was talking about.

When you add the fact that knowing your business well gives you the confidence to reinvest your earnings in bigger and bigger amounts, well then you would know what I am talking.

Capital preservation is about knowing risk. I would argue that excessive diversification invites higher risk ( looking at icon8888 track record) because you just cannot know 35 stocks well enough to see who will end up in MIT and HARVARD.

Reason is at large capital its not 'worth it' to lose a significant sum as much as gaining it....

To be honest I am very impressed with dk66 on his research into JAKS, it is a good start as an investor, the level of detail is to be commended.

I always find those who can buy 35 stocks amazing as they are either have a very strong team of analysts to help, or they love to research on stocks or have a very strong analytical mind to know exactly how their chosen companies will perform over the long term.

Just reading and comparing peers and performance and comps on my few stocks is already almost a full time job.

Even more so reading almost 4-6 hours a day on annual reports,trade journals, similar companies, better investments at lower risk to replace my current stable of stocks, it will be a full time job when I take my early retirement in a few years time.

Kudos dk66, I truly hope you do well, and continue to put your research of JAKS into 2022 and use that mental model to see if your investment thesis is proven correct.

I myself used my past bitter experiences in investments and used it to improve my investment philosophy in the long term.

Those who only started investing in 2011 should probably study a bit more, insult a bit less.Much better than those make 100% over year than lose 30% the next, two steps forward one step back investing. It shows you have no idea whatsoever what you are buying.

The biggest difference between icon8888 and Philip is Philip knows not to swing at every ball, he chooses his investments carefully and only when he is very very sure something will work out the he pounce.

Icon8888 just buys everything, so his losses and winnings mixed in total is very poor, so he dares not declare his long term returns.

Philip on the other hand, has not made a loss in 10 years, even though his returns are not so spectacular ( I don't have 160% in a few weeks), he is able to manage larger and larger sums confidently.

Philip knows exactly what he knows, those that he doesn't he doesn't buy.

I would argue those who drive car with their left have, and do phone paying off LCTITAN on a WHIM at rm4.15 WHILE DRIVING, those are emotional investors who should be ignored and pitied.

It's impossible. The exposure, the balance sheet basically everything is solid, even if you have another salad oil crisis ( like AMEX) it will only mean that you get to buy more Maybank at Rock bottom prices.

The business fundamentals are untouched in the long term.

I can't say the same for other investments that Calvin has made ( talamt, protasco, karambunai,destini,asianpac, etc etc etc)

He is a troll with no portfolio pure and simple.

You would listen to a dog barking and ignore it just the same.

To be honest I don't really like UP. With it's good margins and profits and big cash pile, the fact that they do not expand and grow when the process are low makes me think that they are far too conservative, especially in agricultural industry. If I were them, I would look to consolidate and rework more JV with plantation land or grow more new areas while the process are low. Then when they reach maturity in 7-8 years I get to enjoy the fruits during the breakout cycle of palm oil then.

I have about 30 acres now of small palm oil plantation land hear the tawau main trunk road, revenues and profits are increasing. personally I will not invest in any palm oil stocks while they still have the windfall tax in play, and the brent price down. I will be the first to announce if I do invest in any purely palm oil stocks. In either case, QL also has refineries and palm oil plantation that will reach maturity just as the palm oil prices recover and break out ( due to China support) which I expect 3-5 years from now.

Knowing icon8888 history of insulting people then deleting comments, I shall record his words here for posterity.

Mana tahu like to say ex-engineer, ex-sukuk investment banker ( but with no portfolio and no record of long term returns) we shall wait and see how he performs.

My prediction is that history will repeat itself. Come end 2019, the sharp tongues will go back to the jungle to hide. I will be sitting on 200% profit, at least

My decision to buy or hold is guided by EPS

I don’t understand why you guys are confused and distracted by so many other things

But it is ok, I thrive on other people foolishness

Such as when I bought wb at 25 sen

A big thank you to those fools. Without you, I would not be able to do so well

Doesn't matter. You are one of those fools that I mentioned above

I don't expect you to understand

Charter contract for 8 years, if stop o&g company will pay penalty ( shop renovation cost), and yinson can bid at cheaper rate (using same assets) for new site cheaper than armada and sapura.

https://klse.i3investor.com/blogs/AmInvestResearch/195850.jsp

If still don't understand, I highlight this part for you:

Instead of a bank guarantee, the principal will be paying directly for the US$120mil modification costs of the vessel as a prepayment of the charter revenue, which will be progressively offset over the 7 firm years. As such, we are impressed by management’s commendable arrangement which does not bear any significant risk from a charter termination nor incur any new capex for the vessel, which has already been fully paid by its earlier charter with Canadian Natural Resources.

Previous charter termination in Africa already paid back the penalty of usd80 million. So free ship, free money, no need to borrow money from shareholders or loans to pay for new project. Use back same resources ( already paid for during last project).

I don't say I am invest God. I am telling you details that everyone conveniently forget in their search for alpha.

Did I say I am the best investor? Did I make a investment so far that went bad?

I think my investment in gkent on margin (1 million shares some more) is more aggressive than you or sarifah. But it is based on fundamentals and business sense ( no debt, cash free, 6.4% dividend a year).

What do you mean by more aggressive? So you also about JAKS is a risky investment? Then good you also learn something today.

I hope you have good returns on your investment in JAKS.
