And that's why I've been buying (;

good ;)

Shazza.. I will start talking once I finished buying.

watching closely for further accumulation

Even though brexit dooms days has come and gone, Affin is shining. A clear message that Affin has bottomed out and no more downward tendencies. A clear call for anyone who's been thinking about buying Affin: The ship is about to sail!

Bought Again today.. Brexit results (I think they will be a "remain") will be the last major hurdle in front of oil, Ringgit & Stocks.

I poured more cash into this stock today. I believe in it firmly.

This is normal to drop after dividends. You will get 15 cents, so stock goes down around 15 cents.

We might see a big party next week in the lead up to the ex dividend date. Clearly the stock has been suppressed to scare off hesitant investors, and they actually succeeded. If the stock sky rockets next week, those who hesitated/sold would look like fools.

Kenneth.. 2.90 is very unlikely. I plan to add more if it touches 3.01-04. This is a bargain stock already.

Congrats everyone! Still monitoring stock for further accumulation on my part :)

I would be surprised if they pay out dividends. Taking into account the merger costs and need to preserve cash. I believe that the current share price has already priced in a non dividend payout. If a dividend is announced, the price might shoot up. I believe this is the moment of rebound for this stock.

Released 22 Sep 2014 by Maybanl Research: "The merger of Affin Investment Bank and HwangDBS Investment Bank has completed and the official commencement of operations for the newly formed Affin Hwang Capital begins today. Affin Hwang Capital, which is based in KL and Penang, had a total workforce of 1,900 including remisiers across Malaysia, the company said in a statement. The business serves over 20,000 individuals, corporate and institutional clients, and manages about MYR30b in assets". The commencement of operations for the newly formed Affin Hwang Capital only began 22 Sep! 2 months ago. The losses recorded in H1 were understandable. The stock price in my view is oversold. Any positive results of the merger might appear Q3 or H2 but surely will appear next year.

sbzk it is just a rumor. Maybe true or false. The saying goes: there is no smoke without fire. I made my decision based on fundamentals. I am lining up cash to buy more if the price goes down more.

I am in since Friday 14th Nov. A Saudi investor. Any further declines means more buys for me. Plus there is a rumor: Maybank is considering a merger by buying Affin. They don't want to be 2nd biggest bank after the merger of CIMB RHB and MSB
