Lose money in Leader Steel -- idiots
Making money from Leader Steel -- Not an idiot

Are you an idiot or Not an idiot?
Depends on your entry price and buying strategy.

In bear market, good share falls, bad share fare worse.
What is the percentage fallen from local maxima compared with peers?
Leader Steel - a better share? A bad share? Judge it yourself.

Make in bull, only to lose out all in bear.
Why can't you make in bull, and make in bear?
Making from bull to bear, and from bear to bull?

Khazanah (typically a holding company without field operation) expenses amount to RM 4,500m (or 4.5 Billion) for its 458 staff on its payroll.

How much is the cost per staff?

Not all are CEO's

Ekovest (or Lim Kang Hoo more exact) want to buy out MI of IWC at 1.50 cash or 1:1 Ekovest share value at 1.50

"The Proposed Acquisition will involve the Company undertaking a conditional voluntary takeover offer to acquire all the Offer Shares for a cash consideration of RM1.50 per Offer Share or for new ordinary shares to be issued by the Company (“Ekovest Share”), on the basis of one new Ekovest Share at RM1.50 per share for every one Offer Share, in accordance with the Malaysian Code on Take-Overs and Mergers 2016 (“Code”)."


You need to consider Now:-

1. This proposal does not require approval of IWC MI
2. IWC MI can choose only cash offer or not
3. Can Ekovest offer share-swap without cash alternative
4. IWC MI not necessarily accept Ekovest's (or Lim Kang Hoo) offer if there is no cash alternative
5. If share-swap, any arrangement Ekovest (or Lim Kang Hoo) with third party to offer 1.50 cash to IWC MI
6. If Ekovest intend to pay cash, what is the probability VGO can take place?
7. If Ekovest 100% share -swap, what is the probabilty VGO is successful?

Now you need to further consider:-

1. Why Lim Kang Hoo need such a useless corporate restructuring?
2. Any good to Ekovest MI?
3. What is the effect on Ekovest share price tomorrow?
4. Now IWH and IWC merger is off. Can it be Lim Kang Hoo's tactic to maintain IWC share price at the expense of Ekovest MI?
5. IWC MI need not be too happy. Very soon this proposal will not go ahead. IWC will then go back to 80 sen or even lower.
6. Think over it tonight. Take wise action at 8.55am tomorrow............


Note:
IWC selling 127 acres to Greenland was announced way back in 2005, and its share price hovering around 70 sen to 80 sen for years since announcement.
Why?

Why?

At RM 824psf, it works out to be 10.9% gross.
Total rental will be around RM 50m a year, if 100% rented out.

Unlike MRCB that uses MQReit as ATM, ARReit Managers did a very good job by securing prized asset with favorable price (or should say big 13% discount), taking unit holders' interest above their own.

Why Vista Tower a good buy?
1. Class A office in the vicinity of KLCC Twin Tower only selling at RM 824psf. Where else can you get this type of bargain?
2. Immediately upon completion of deal, ARReit can recognise RM 67.1m unrealised gain for FYE Dec 2017. In addition, ARReit shall receive RM 9.18m over 24 month payment (or RM 382.5k a month) as distributable revenue.
3. Why vendor willing to sell Vista Tower below market value?
3.1 Lifespan of Private Equity Fund (owner) set up by Blackrock Inc is expiring in 2017. Vista Tower must be sold within this year.
3.2 Right now office space glut does not permit Balckrock Inc to ask for premium price.
4. LRT and MRT2 link directly to Tower Vista. It is therefore easy access to TRX, Bandar Malaysia, High Speed Rail, Bukit Bintang.
5. Any property that has direct access to MRT/ LRT will appreciate in value. So by 31 Aug 2020, Vista Tower should at least double in value. Is it that difficult to fetch a price tag of RM 1650psf then?
6. No RI proposed. So present Unit Holders need not foot out additional money.


All in all, I would expect ARReit price will respond positively tomorrow.
Good luck to all........

What constitute a property hot spot?
An easy way to find a property hotspot is to follow the big boys as they have impeccable R&D teams. Anytime you hear rumours that an Aeon supermarket is going to be built in an area, property investors will immediately begin searching for viable properties in the area.
This is because an Aeon supermarket will only be built in an area after an extensive research is performed to ensure that there is sufficient population amongst other criteria in the area to patron the supermarket.

Taman Desa Tebrau is a location with plenty of property choices. The options offered ranges from different prices to different locations in the vicinity. If you are looking for more exclusive residences, you should opt for Taman Mount Austin and Taman Austin Perdana which are only next to Taman Desa Tebrau.

Being located within walking distance from Jusco Tebrau City, for those with preference to the convenience city life, yet live within exclusive of serenity, property prices in Taman Desa Tebrau is a real steal.

This is the same question as when is the best time to buy share.
Just apply buying strategy for share purchase to that of buying a house.

Buy good share cheap as kcchongnz has been telling you all this while.
So, buy good house cheap is the theme of the decade.

Why houses is considered cheap now?
Can it be cheaper next year?

What constitute good house?
Is it in KLCC vicinity?
Or at BBCC?

Then consider what is a good buy to suit your needs.
Big house?
Small house?
Big pent house?
Small studio?


Just give you an indication if price come within market expectation, people won't let the decade long opportunity to slip away, just like Singapore EC along Yio Chu Kang Rd selling at S$834 psf.
Please take note Yio Chu Kand is not far from Punggol New Town in north eastern Singapore.

After paying 10%. They can just goyang kaki for next 48 months.
Hoping to flip in between.
Sad story sets in.
Earlier wanted to sell higher price, not making no selling.
Now Vacant Possession given, want to sell, no buyer.
Sell at a loss, no buyer also.
Want to rent out, no tenant.
Want to pay installments, cannot afford to make ends meet.
This is a true story, not a make up.
Just ask around, probably you will come across someone facing such a situation.

Affordability should measure on unit cost basis. If cost of landed house is 350psf, a single storey terrace with build-up of 1000sf will be 350k, double storey with build-up 1500sf will be 525k. It is definitely affordable by those earning 6k and 10k.
The problem is those who earn 6k want to buy 2 storey house cost 525k, and those who earn 10k want to buy 2500sf house that cost 875k.

For city dwellers, landed is always around 500 - 1000 ringgit per sf. To buy a 2000sf house will cost at least 1 million. Definitely this is not what city dweller should aim for. They must be more realistic, apartments (Condo) around rm 600 to rm 1000 psf are still available. For 1000sf apartment, entry price is 600k. If you earn 10k a month, buy one 1000sf apartment. If you earn 6k, buy a 750sf apartment.

Rule of thumb is to buy a house with 50 months gross salary. Earn more can buy bigger house. Earn less then buy a smaller house. Bounds to have a house that suit your budget. House price in Malaysia is still affordable

Cost of putting up a house definitely will go up. To make profit, developer has to sell what ever cost incurred plus a profit margin. Probably sell at 10% to 16% higher as what calvintaneng said.

The only problem will be the purchasing power of disposable income(which may remain the same) to be eroded due to GST and hike in petrol price. Couple with impending interest rate hike, potential buyer will be eligible for lesser loan amount. This effectively place certain buyers out of reach. Consequent is lesser demand. When supply exceed demand, price will drop to a level to establish new equilibrium.

So if developer try to sell houses at 10% to 16% higher, less people buy.
Less people buy, developer holding more stocks.
It will come to a point when developer cannot hold on any more, then cheap sale coming.
Similar incident happened in 1986-88, 1996-99, 2003-04.
Probably next round will 2016-18.

Compare apple with apple. Don't compare a 800sf apartment in S'pore with 2000sf terrace house in Malaysia.

To be fair, use 50 months gross median pay for Singaporean or Hongkist and 50 months gross median pay of Malaysian. See what type of dwelling they can buy, apartment vs apartment, terrace vs terrace, detached house vs detached house, urban vs urban, suburban vs suburban.

How many S'porean or Hongkist can afford to stay in landed property compared with Malaysian. See what is on per sq foot basis each S'porean or Hongkist can get for 50 months gross median pay. Hongkist doesn't go home after work, they just wondering on street and shopping mall simply because their home is too small and not comfortable.
Like it or not, Malaysian enjoy better accommodation than counterparts in S'pore or Hongkong.

Malaysia still has most affordable housing available in this part of the world.
Why using 36 months' pay and not 50 months?
10k a month means you can borrow 500k, can go for a 550k house already lah (with 90% loan). His monthly installment only 2290 per month for 35 years.

The problem is when you are earning 10k a month, you want to buy a million ringgit house. Surely bank will reject your loan application.

One type of idiot just came out from university, working for three years already complaint he can't afford to buy a house.
Why not wait a bit longer, say work for 7 years, then you would have save enough for down payment, and your salary is good enough for you to qualify for bigger amount of loan?

Another type of idiot earning 10k a month, spent 2k on car loan (purportedly must get a car to suit his profession/ position). How to qualify for 500k housing loan?
You think bank won't check on your other commitment kah?

All in all, Malaysian still very fortunate to have so many choice to suit your budget, not like those in Hongkong when mortgage will take up 60% of their gross salary...........
