It merely a business decision that every share investor got to make. :-) happy investing

louise, everyone has different safety margin and i dont encourage people to buy or sell a counter...very simple reason, i'm not expert :-)

Theoretically yes. Share price derived both from the book and market perception under normal market condition. While the directors refuse to reevaluate their actual asset to reflect actual value, we are considered the early bird to buy the share worth 8 at 2.

My opinion, real profit will only come it after 2015. Any earlier profit should be considered as bonus during massive expansion in china, philipine, SEA and middle east from 2012 - 2014..

mmk, if NTA 8, fair price is 8 for me for traditional business except of servicing line where the share price is usually higher than NTA

Today NanYang "hui yan" write about Farlim. Expect public response but could it be similar response like Brem?

Halley SICAV Asian prosperity- stake holding up further to 37 million shares..

It will be great if both KCChongnz & You can set up an investment fund...we need expert like you too to lead us for more profitable share investment portfolio..both short, mid and long term...looking forward for that..

Thank you Mr OTB, i managed made some more money in WTK after hevea & latitud....I still remember i owe you abalone..

up coming catalyst: EVENTUAL move to Main board + OFFICIAL BID for the project under 2014 budget telecommunication...Hold till 2015...hope for it to double or triple the price...the ROI for 2 years should be quite good...

Unfortunately most prefer to chase upward spiral rather than chasing downward spiral

went cheras leisure mall Chicago restaurant...The rev is not pilot test at this outlet. Guess need another person here to go to the outlet mentioned by Awang. Any serious investor to make this effort? appreciate that..

There is a change of audiences?

Mr Tan, so is 2012 a better year then 2011 based on above example?

Mr Tan, If year 2012, earn 300k, shares 600k, EPS is?

I refer to that book whereby they keep record of total shares and changes over a very long period of time and any quantity change due rights, bonus issues , etc will be take into consideration of earning ability of the company..

If year 2012, earn 300k, shares 600k, EPS is?

One more thought...dont forget the 8th wonders of the world - "COMPOUND INTEREST"

I suppose the BIG different here is "director disposing shares" Vs "directors CONTINUOUSLY disposing shares"...happy investing

Mr Ooi's advice carry weight

Example Digi http://klse.i3investor.com/servlets/stk/fin/6947.jsp
The EPS is not adjusted after split

in the book, the EPS for past years will be adjust accordingly

EPS calculation? It appears in the company financial statement.

And the share sell took place on 30 DEC 2013...which is last year

Mr Tan,

My business experience tells me that i will SURVIVE with good operating cash flow, but i will only PROSPER if my business got good profit. On top of that, i consider myself a SUCCESS if every dollar i invested (share issued) will give me the highest return possible..

Thus i think is more accurate to use EPS CAGR..A company can keep issuing new shares but making same profit every year. It becomes smoke that blur the eye if only looking at profit CAGR...example, company A made RM 300k every year with 100 shares issued. But company B made RM 300k with 100k shares issued.. I think investing in company A is wiser than company B. Thus, EPS will be more appropriate.

Also, for a good DY company, it must be with durable competitive advantage which in turn given a very consistent EPS CAGR...With this figures in place plus fair PER, i somehow can roughly estimate the future (say 10 years, or 20 years) shares price...This made the company not only good dividend paying stock, but also capital appreciation stock.

A beautiful and convincing EPS CAGR shuld give us certain level of confidence to ESTIMATE future eps..You may refer book written by Mary Buffett, daughter-in-law of Warren Buffett for the details...That book can be found in popular too..

Just my 2 cents and happy investing :-)

Kin, title of the book is “股市指南” have both chinese and english version. you can easily search from the popular book store..but current version is 2012...wonder when going to release 2013 version as the year just ended...supposed October. Talking about REITS, yes, agree with you...but when over supply take place in 2014 - 2015..i afraid the game maybe a little different...Thus, i advocate Singapore REITS if seriously need to buy REITS.

But be it Share/ REITS, i afraid current DY is seriously not attractive at all...I still be believe DY more than 10% is a fairer figures to cover personal inflation rather than government's reported inflation.

Shares market across asia down lo

Kin, REITS very much depend on property value and rental...when many property vacant during doom, the rental income will drop..hence dividend will drop too...what do you think?

Mr Tan, there is a book in Popular where the publisher has taking into consideration of all the bonus issue, split...etc and derived the "corrected" EPS ..i bought the new edition every year....I believe EPS's CAGR is more accurate than profit's CAGR. What do you think?

Do consider kcchongnz's recommendation...he is very good...

If you also noticed, Ringgit is fluctuating like mad today/ recently...think a lot of foreign fund throw bursa shares and ringgit

Purchasing manager Index (> 50% = economy expansion)...china released its December's PMI for non manufacturing PMI and the figures fell to four-month low at 54.6% from 56%. This indicate a much slower economy...If 2nd taigor cough, many countries get flu...

Think this chicago restaurant will wonder of sudden biz surge..as many cuscapi invstor will visit the restaurat ...ha ha

Will try the cheras leisure mall outlet

Oh...ok ok....sorry sorry...will go try next week....give report when back..:-)

China taigor PMI drop...whole asia shaking..

Mr tan, my opinion, those company with CAGR of eps > 15% for past 1 decade, no quarter with loss, are company with durable competitive advantage, should be good one to buy..in my record got more than 100 counters in bursa fufilled this requirement.

Cannot order through rev??

U no interview the restaurant owner or staff how they see this rev? :)

I dont consider myself lucky as i sold a good company...only if i sold the bad company early, then i m..make sense?

When Mr market speaks, everyone obey

Awang, can describe more?

logically speaking, we are all the small small little bankers behind this MBSB..be it or not you hold MBSB shares :-)

EPF hold more than 60% shares in MBSB...where you expect the EPF dividend come from? :-)

Hi all, suggest you all also participate in stock pick challenge by TKW...many things to learn from OTB & KCChong

i see.

all kaki, do you all know where fortunebull disappeared to? Totally no more in i3

Seriously, you think how many chance you have to buy a company worth RM 8 at RM 2.00 ++..去那里找哦？

if u not willing to subscribe for the rights, u got to hold longer for dividend gain..After all, this is a "banking" stock...need not worry..

those subscribe for the rights shares will be the winner
