Anyone here think buying BJcorp, BJauto and BJfood to diversify into Vincent's companies is a good idea?

Nemesis, CMSB and Mitra in my property development and construction portfolio are doing well. Only Mkland is a bit laggard for now. Maybe lack of catalysts even though it is cheap now?

That's why it is important to diversify. My Mitra doing well. My Mkland, i can wait for it to turnaround

go up again

2.6 now

uptrend today

nemesis, i also have mkland and mitra. I hope there is a turnaround for mkland and symlife cause now only mitra is performing.

nemesis, you are into symlife? I remember you are strong supporter of Mkland

Result not too bad. EPS is about the same from last year quarter. Cumulative EPS increased a bit

0.42 for so long

Good strategy is diversify and buy some construction stocks like Gadang, Mitra, CMSB..etc. 11MP is coming

Good strategy is to buy both BJauto and BJcorp

Share buy back

@xfighter: Besides Mkland in my property/construction portfolio, i have also invested in mitra and cmsb. So far Mkland gives good dividend, but the fruit is slow to ripen

have to be patient. Like waiting for a durian on a tree.

4.1

good news?

any good news?

He is only bankrupt in Australia

like what nemesis has predicted, kasi is pushing up the share

sharp drop, good time to buy

kasi pushing up the share price :)

@steve: If u r interested in dividends, the answer is yes. For share price appreciation, u have to wait a bit like what has been explained by nemesis

stock price unchanged today

$16 million is chicken feet for him. Mr Kasi Palaniappan is a former architect and university professor who had assets valued at $US127 million ($165 million) in 2006, according to Forbes

Also, it is unclear if an Australian court will be able to retrieve the outstanding debt from an overseas jurisdictio

Also not sure if they will able to extract that RM45 million from kasi since he is not doing much business in Australia. Most likely it will be settled outside of court. Maybe Kasi will ask for higher dividend for MKland shares if he has to pay off that debt :)

In new court documents lodged in the Federal Court in Perth, Mr Kasi Palaniappan has argued a bankruptcy notice issued in January had no force because he "was not a resident of Australia [and] … was not carrying on business in Australia".

It is unclear whether Westpac will be able to retrieve the outstanding debt from an overseas jurisdiction, as it will likely depend on whether Mr Kasi Palaniappan has assets in a country where the courts would hear the bank's plea.

A Westpac spokesman said the bank was in litigation with Mr Kasi Palaniappan in Australia "and in other jurisdictions".

"As those proceedings are ongoing, we are not in a position to make any further comment at this stage," the spokesman said.

Mr Kasi Palaniappan is a former architect and university professor who had assets valued at $US127 million ($165 million) in 2006, according to Forbes. He is still listed as a director at the Malaysian company he founded, MK Land.

Down.great time to buy

up a bit today

Bullish uptrend. Congrats to those who bought around 1.5

up up up

A turnaround?

Bjauto and Bjfood doing well lately. Children doing well, the parent will also benefit in the future

@calvin: Is it better to own both BJauto and BJcorp? Or just concentrate on one?

Are Bjauto and Bjfood still worth it? Or just buy Bjcorp?

i bot at 47..now 42.5..last year 3 sen and now 1 sen..4 sen div..plus 42.5..is 46.5..almost recover my loss

Bjauto flying up today. Soon is bjcorp?

BJtoto just announced a good result

good day today for pwroot

43 cents

Good strategy in this counter is buy when there is a big selloff

Above 1.7

@vinvin: Stock up on ex-dividend day. Share buy back by co?

Maybe this counter needs coverage from more investment banks. Only JF Apex gave a TP for Gadang. Mitra also started to fly this year when more investment banks pay attention to it.

If vietnam lottery happens, will it contribute more to bjtoto than bjcorp?

@gift: Maybe that is why apini said buying Gadang is like buying the durian on the tree. Once they win some new contracts, it also can fly.

why sudden rise? only because of dividend?
