Though Revenue almost flat for the QtoQ comparison

Posted by Beza > 2017-02-23 14:47 | Report Abuse

see its revenue up from RM40.55 bil to RM44.65 for full financial year. Good sign. How could HLB and PBB achieve this revenue.

Can kudamuda make more RM4 bil revenue for yourself a year?

hahaha.. @Beza.. good point

HLBB EPS 26.89 in Q416 vs 26.53 in Q316 vs 19.43 in Q415
In %, 1% over Q316; +38% over Q415
Better or not, depends on how we view it. The latest QtoQ comparison, MBB showed a higher rate of improvement.

actually I think it's worth to buy at this price, kinda regret did not buy when it was $7.50 a few months ago.

Posted by Beza > 2017-02-23 14:57 | Report Abuse

HLB made RM5.26 bil, PBB made RM 20.16 bil for revenue in a year.

Another 32 sen dividend announced. Total dividend for this financial year amounts to 52 sen, giving a dividend yield of over 6%, more than EPF is paying.

how ironic EPF sell alot maybank and give you all 5.7% P.a , lol

EPF is a trader, cannot make much money.

Posted by kudamuda > 2017-02-23 17:20 | Report Abuse

@ongkh98, yes you're right. QtoQ, MBB is much better, thus this would be the plus point compare to HLB. This echo @Beza's view. Thanks for the insights.

EPF board sells MBB below 9.00.

Maybe EPF board will buy MBB above 9.00 ?

Posted by Junichiro > 2017-02-23 23:23 | Report Abuse

I do not share the view that EPF is selling its shares at a loss. EPF got the shares very very cheap decades ago. Thru bonus, rights & special issues - their cost is very cheap.

An ex MBB staff friend of mine, purchased its rights in 1999 at $4.28 per share n later sold it at $15.60

EPF is doing trading - buying n selling to make $$$ to pay its dividends to its members. After creating some black candles on the charts, it would buy back again in time for MBB's dividend. Its ex date is months away.

Posted by Beza > 2017-02-24 09:04 | Report Abuse

EPF must have regretted a lot today as MBB is going up.

Posted by Junichiro > 2017-02-24 09:13 | Report Abuse

Why must EPF regret? They are playing with your money and my money. If they make less, they give us less dividend.

Posted by Beza > 2017-02-24 10:25 | Report Abuse

Ha! Ha! You got a point. But then members scold EPF for making less profit. It is totally useless when its performance cannot beat a retail investor.

Posted by Beza > 2017-02-24 10:29 | Report Abuse

To me, EPF has been trusting wrong guys (remisers of various banks) to trade for it.EPF should hire retail investors like cold eye, OTB, etc to manage the stock investment in Malaysia for better profit. Am I right?

Posted by prudentinvestor > 2017-02-24 10:35 | Report Abuse

EPF got more than 30 million Maybank shares at RM 7.25 each in the latest DRP. If it had opted for cash, it would have received much less.

Posted by Beza > 2017-02-24 10:46 | Report Abuse

Imagine if EPF never sold as before, It could earn more for members. Since it sold a lot, what to say? members get lesser div.

Posted by SY12 > 2017-02-24 11:27 | Report Abuse

Stanley - please check on your chart data and facts. I believe sometime early last year (Mar-Apr) Maybank was upto a high of RM 9.17 before going down to RM7.5 later in 2016.

Long term TP should be 11.00 or more.

PNB can jack it up to RM12. (5% div) or even higher at RM 18 (3% div equivalent to PBB) if the Chairman want to.

Dear Amit, the chart in my article is adjusted accordingly to dividends, bonus issue, etc. I put in hours of research into the markets and I am confident of my analysis before making a statement here. I know my stuff and facts well. The price action of Maybank proves it.

Tekseng Wrong?
Then what about MAYBANK, ARMADA, SENDAI, KAWAN, LCTH in which members had the time of their lifes in these rallies?
Why just focus on one bad counter? Did you not have a stop loss rule? Then I cant do much about it :(
As a trader and investor, a 70%-90% win rate looks great to me ;)

Im sorry i cant meet your 100% win rate requirement :(

What is MBB & PBB's standing in the international investment arena? MBB is way behind PBB.

Bullshit. How many countries PBB has branches in compare to MBB? Even 2016 the largest capital money was MBB when its share price pushed up to RM8.30. Now it is RM8.60
