I wonder that buy in below 7% DY and sell out above 9% DY if there is any historical record for good return? example research was done that companies with low PE, low P/B generally outperform.
ok my bad, tweedy browne has published that, generally higher yield outperform lower yield companies but those that have higher yield with low payout ration outperform all
Yes, in fact small and mid cap have potential of higher gain simply because of the size factor.
However, Emily's investing strategy has lower risk as small cap may not be able to withstand a major economic downturn. So Emily's strategy suits most people in my opinion.
Buying big cap with long history of return is especially better to do when there is a major crisis when stock prices are beaten down.
Mark Mobius advocate buying Good Shares in Bad Times & Buying bad shares in good times. For me I like buying 10 cts to the dollar if I can find them.
One guy was given a Company Car for only Rm600. I told him I will add a zero behind and make it RM6,000 to buy it from him. My workers protested, "Why pay him RM6.000 when his Company sold him for only RM600?" I replied, "It doesn't matter if the Company sold him at RM600 or RM1.00. I am willing to pay RM6,000 Why Not? If I can sell it for RM12,000!
With this same Value Hunting I have Bought RM1 Million Dollar Property For Only RM250K. And RM500K property for less than RM200K. Of Course You Can Only Get Them When Sentiment is Really Bad When Few Dare To Buy any.
I find this same principle in KLSE. Take Mulpha for Example. In Year 1994 I bought & sold Mulpha at RM4.20 to RM4.50.
20 Years Later I Am Very Surprised to see Mulpha at 43.5 cts. It is selling at 10$ of 20 Years Ago Value. And The Prospect of Mulpha is now Changing Fundamentally For The Better.
Now I understand Warren Buffet completely, "I know I will be rich"'
Should read as Mulpha is selling at 10% of 20 years value. And I bought Perak Corp at 60 cts when less than 1% of the people pay any attention then. Now that Perak Corp Is SO HOT & SO POPULAR Its Price Has Also Risen Up In Tandem.
Recently I was told by my colleague to buy Nestle if ever we can afford. Any comments? Very expensive but currently it's at 63.50 which is the lowest during the first half of 2014.
Nestle is definitely a good companies - It is a company with strong histories of profitability - The company generate enough operating cash flow to cover its operations, and in another meaning it provide the management a lot of free cash flow. - Owing to this, NESTLE is also company with strong histories of dividend payout. - And, NESTLE is definitely a franchise business with moat (check the profit margin and you will know).
One more thing, look at the part of the video when they discuss about the cut loss.
I tend to support Emily for not cutting loss in view of his stock pick criteria. And, if I were her I will buy more (if I have the capital) when price come down instead of cut loss.
If I choose a relatively young and small companies, then I might need to cut loss if price drop drastically.
Let's take NESTLE as example. If i buy at 63.50 now, I definitely have to buy more when price come to 50 or 40.
re Evaluate! Is it worth ? when price drops ...also when price increses! Is it still Cheap or Has ir become Expensive. based on -political situation, stock market Trend,Platform of Performance. if Stage sinks lower, actors aaaaaaaaALL come Down.Cannot dance! can only shake with fear.Change in earnings.. where is cash river flowing from?Policy OF Managenment or MIss management. It is a composite picture: Have to RE-EVALUATE. people who do homework SURE escape Punishment, or can can hide and try to Escape too Much punishment by selling off or adding some quicklines( of Cash.) .Averaging is two sided sword.Can cut both ways....SO RE_Evaluate n Smile n b happy.
I would suggest your share us your study \ homework. And then we can understand more.
I believe we can judge a company based on its pass records. Owing to this, I calculated the intrinsic value base on its financial result and buy it when there is a great margin of safety.
And, I have no idea how to spot the trend. And I think it is very difficult to perform a right estimation or forecast.
I believe in Warren Buffett and Howard Marks's statements.
"In the business world, the rearview mirror is always clearer than the windshield." - Warren Buffett
"In both economic forecasting and investment management, it's worth noting that there's usually someone who gets it exactly right... but it's rarely the same person twice." - Howard Marks
I invest on potential ( substantiated with contracts announced) , rather than merely referring to historical data. History is past n dead. Future is alive and real!
Yes I agree that if during a downturn, my strategy would be to pick up high div yield, defensive beaten down blue chips first since these would be the most resilient and the first to recover. Part of the reason for blue chips being unlikely to crash like small caps would be the institutional support (foreign or local) that would support share price. Normally small caps will only move with retail participation which typically will be poor during a bear market.
The problem is no one really knows when we are going into bear market until we are in one. Haha... so my strategy is to always maintain an acceptable amount of cash and to diversify well.

I believe you can make more money if you able to hit the right stocks with great potential. And, you might have a higher CAGR target than me. But, there is a risk come along with it. It need a great discipline to cut loss if the trend is against you.

Great info for reading . I agreed with kcchongnz. However no one is wrong as i believed everyone have their own risk preferences . :) Some aim to buy Lamborghini and some just aim for BMW and some might just aim to have stable and happy life . It is how you defined your own life satisfaction . Cheers.

Dont agree with this one
3. Avoid company with small cap; look for big cap with long listing history.
I would say small cap or big cap shouldn't matter but must look at historical consistency of earnings and management ways.
