1. The margin finance given normally ranged between 2 - 2.5 times. If you adjust that (from 50%), at RM2.95 Jack would have 40m shares or so worth 120m, with 85m or so debt. Multiplier magnifies.
2. I am not going to go on because I don't like Dayang. You can see the problem already, the largest chunk of shares (17m or so) with highest margin limit (50m or so) is bought at highest price.

KYY was referring to profit gone. I dont think he lose in Dayang. He had bought it very early below RM1, then only started to promote. This modus operandi is well known. Then when Dayang failed to break RM2 for few times, he started to buy again, this time with more margin financing and keep on writing articles. I reckon he managed to sell some at RM2.2~RM2.7. He did not expect the Covid19 to be so deadly, causing Dayang to limit down once, and tumbling heavily for few times. No chance for him to sell, unless he wants to continue letting the price down.
When Dayang gone below RM1, i think he lost hope of regaining those profit he got earlier. If i m not mistaken again, he liquidated some positions and then when the opportunity arises to RM1.3~RM1.4+.; thats it. It his final chunk of selling.
He only win small. Pity are those chasing at high price.

He is lucky with 10% left.
supersaiyan3, thanks for your correction. I learn something here. As I have never used any MF, I did not know you can get that for 2-2.5 times the money one has in the share. My assumption of 50% of increased in value of shares used for additional MF was certainly way understated if Jack is the type of player who "use MF to the max".
Hence the scenario on the dark side in the story could be much worse. I tend to agree with your point 4 now.
don't be fooled by apek story la..he just exaggerated the figure to run away from LHDN la..bought below 70cents and already making tons of money when the share price hit above 2.50. Sold most of the stock and perhaps left with 10%.

than its true..he lost 90% of that 10 % only.
Lol..this is possible also..he made more than 100% of his 90% stock holdings n lost 90% of his 10% balance
My wife and I have a total of 8.8 million + 27.07 million = 35.87 million Dayang shares.
Based on the last traded price of Rm 2.46, the open market value of our holdings is Rm 88.25 million on 13 Dec and on 29 March the open market value of our holdings was Rm 30.25.
We have made 88.25 million – 30.25 million = Rm 58.00 million within 9 months.
whether he n his wife owns 30m plus dayang with cost below rm1.00 as per his post on 13 dec 2019..or whether he lost 90% of his wealth in dayang as per his post last week..
Haha, The question is can you lose 90% in Dayang? The answer YES. I even lose 100% in Xingquan. The next question can Koon lose 90% of his wealth in Dayang? The answer you ask charlesT he know Koon like the back of his hand.
Assuming old man kyy lost 90% of the "profit" of $60mil.. he still has $6mil profit.. But he cld have cash out the $60mil and donated to charity or give a lot of scholarships.... Its a case of miss opportunity, greed and bad timing (covid+oil price drop)..
Kyy profit was reduced to $6mil.. well, thats still ok, no need to feel sad for his 'reduced' profit.. :) Those on his scholarship will feel sad as now he may give out less i assume..
Some people r fond of telling half the truth. To them, it's not a lie. Also, they think that we r moron n dungu people who will swallow wholeheartly what was said. Businessman, politicians r all alike. 90 percent loss of wealth bcos of dayang's price fall?. Get real..
Posted by supersaiyan3 > Apr 20, 2020 7:41 AM | Report Abuse Mr. Chong, we were talking about Jack and Jill right? Simple question of "can you lose 90%", I think we found the answer "yes". Then there are people with good imaginative ability say actually Jack could make 10% instead. Eager to see their maths.
Yes, we are talking about an issue here. It has nothing to do with any one. Ordinary investors Jack and Jill were used to illustrate the bright and dark side of margin finance. The assumptions were clearly spelt out. It provide some useful information for any one who thinks that using OPM is such a wonderful thing in investing.
If anyone deviates from the assumptions, of course the speculative outcomes are all different.
30 million shares @ $3 = $ 90 million, borrowed $ 45 million, equity $ 45 million 30 million shares @ $ 1.60 = $ 48 million, equity $ 3 million
if every thing is sold at $ 1.60, u lost 90% of your wealth ( equity) at $ 3. ........this assumes u have borrowed to the limit ( $ 45 million ) at $ 3 ..................
30 million shares @ $3 = $ 90 million, borrowed $ 45 million, equity $ 45 million 30 million shares @ $ 1.60 = $ 48 million, equity $ 3 million
if every thing is sold at $ 1.60, u lost 90% of your wealth ( equity) at $ 3. ........this assumes u have borrowed to the limit ( $ 45 million ) at $ 3 ..................
this is you lost 90% of your wealth at $ 3............not 90% of capital at beginning of operation...........
a spider whips up a web for other things to be caught. But if you are that kind of a spider who builds a web in which you yourself is caught are you not a stupid spider? KYY is not a stupid spider.
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
