Since taking position in early 2019, I don't dare to move around. Just dumb dumb hold and wait for my stocks to appreciate one by one.

Harvesting in batches

The biggest loser is my remisier. He is not very happy with my inactivity (I assume)

I think next CNY he won't send me hamper anymore

I got mfcb also

Bought the warrants at beginning this year at 1.10

Both Jaks and mfcb I also like

The earning visibility is there, albeit Jaks is more controversial

No need so scare also, like I mentioned above, the next bear likely won't come until after 2020

My view is that we are entering an extended bull run. After screwing up the market for most of 2018, trump has finally got what he wants from china. All the dark clouds had dissipated. So conditions had become very favourable for equity. This is for 2019

In November 2020, the US will hold It's presidential Election. Traditionally market does well in election year

So there is still plenty of time to party. Don't worry. Just enjoy your life

Statistics is not in favour of 3iii. On average, the stock market experiences 3 good years before getting into a bad year

Since 2018 was a bad year, 3iii will only smile again come 2022

In the meantime , he needs to live frugally and supplement his income wiping tables in Mc Donald

3iii got the defensive part right

He did well in 2018

But dogmatism prevented him from following through by capitalising on the subsequent bull market

So at best he is second class

You are getting wiser and wiser Mr Cockcroach

You are asking the right question

Long term Sustainable stockmrket performance comprises two key components :
(1) wealth creation. Your dayang did it this year; and
(2) wealth preservation , which you are pondering what to do now

In short, Whatever gain obtained from stock market should be guarded jealously. Don't get carried away by taking speculative positions and ultimately lose all back to the market.

Learn to escape from the karmic cycle of boom and bust

The above mentioned is actually more important than many people realise

Losing less in a bear market does not make you a great investor

You must be able to lose less in bear market and do well in bull market

Otherwise you are not there yet

The following is what Howard Mark said in his book "the most important things" :

"Neither defensive investors who limit their losses in a decline nor aggressive investors with substantial gains in a rising market have proved they possess skill. For us to conclude that investors truly add value, we have to see how they perform in environments to which their style isn’t particularly well suited. Can the aggressive investor keep from giving back gains when the market turns down? Will the defensive investor participate substantially when the market rises? This kind of asymmetry is the expression of real skill."

I agree the 500 mil Is already on the Low side

So it is considered not aggressive and quite credible

The lower than expected profitability could be like what I mentioned above : leakage to ALP through various means

He is not a very rich guy so he tends to be a bit heavy handed when come to extracting value for himself

But so far according to CFO , he is leaving behind 150 mil to take care of the share price. After all he has a stake in the shares and warrants

We just ride with him on this loh

Otherwise What to do ? Go AGM and complain about toilet roll cost like SSlee ?

Posted by kcchongnz > Apr 13, 2019 11:13 PM | Report Abuse

In a power plant project like this, if one is really talking about investing, the theoretical and logical thing to look for is what is the present value of these free cash flows over the life of the project, discounted to the present, and compared with the price now.

That is the theory postulated by John Burr Williams many years ago and the investing professionals still use them.

That is also how the viability of a project like this is being appraised too.

But of course to make money, theory may not apply and one needs not follow it. That is the beauty of the capital market.

I don't worry too much about dividend from Jaks

It won't be equivalent to profit, but will not be zero either

The FCF is definitely less than 150 mil, because 25 years depreciation will now be replaced by 15 years (let's say) principal repayment

You can actually make some assumptions and work out your own figures

At the end of the day, you don't need very high dividend payment. Let's say based on 600 mil shares and price of RM2.00, market cap is RM1.2 bil

What kind of dividend yield is reasonable ? 5% ? Then you just work backwards , and you will arrive at dividend payment of RM60 mil per annum

Is RM60 mil per annum out of RM150 mil net profit possible ?

Yes, very likely

That is it. That is all I need to know as far as FCF or potential dividend is concerned

I am not interested in knowing FCF over entire 25 years. i don't really give much emphasis to NPV. That is why I don't ask the kind of questions KC asked me

No offence, I am just being frank and straight forward
