This has to be the work of institutions. Uptrend should be intact. Don't sell your Maybank for the time being.

@stkoay Thanks. CIMB better offer on DRP. :p

Posted by stkoay > 2022-08-31 12:53 | Report Abuse

@choysun.....RHB and CIMB give higher discount (about 10%) for DRP also.....
.....Maybank cannot afford to do that.....if they give big discount, then ASB will give big sell to take profit...haha..

....so a little is good, no need too much......also it will dilute future earnings.

No problem scaling to RM10.50 to RM11 should GE15 be held this year. Even at RM11 a share, its dividend yield is still over 5%.

As such, Kenanga maintained its "overweight" call on the banking sector, with top picks leaning towards dividend counters to shelter against uncertainties — Malayan Banking Bhd (Maybank) and Affin Bank Bhd.

"In terms of top picks, we still like Maybank, which we highlight for its stellar dividend returns (7% to 8%) paired by its commendable asset quality readings in spite of being the leader in loans and deposits share," it said.

@ stkoay Wow. Bold move. ASW means asset swap, right

Posted by stkoay > 2022-09-02 11:45 | Report Abuse

@LeonardLiong......ASW is Amanah Saham Wawasan.......Many years ago they used to pay dividend above 6%....but last 2 years it was 4%, this year it's 3.75%....so. I am switching out from the fund to top up Maybank.
These fixed price funds from PNB hold a lot of Maybank.....if they hold 100% maybank then they can easily pay dividend above 6%....but they hold many other blue chips that are not performing well......so might as well I managed myself by switching to Maybank.

After 3 years pandemic already end,

1)Crisis 1986-1990 start booming 1993 to 1997

2)Crisis 1997-2000 start booming 2003 to 2006 

3)Crisis 2006-2010 start booming 2013 to 2016

MAN Group Plc expects Asian stocks to outshine other regions next year as softer inflation and the end of an earnings downgrade cycle set the ground for an early rebound.

Within the region, the hedge fund giant is betting on defensive stocks in India and South-East Asia while cautioning that equities across northern Asia remain more vulnerable to trade headwinds and the economic slowdown in China.

“A lot of the problems the west is dealing with right now around speculative bubbles, over-stimulus, inflationary pressure and scarcity of labour – all these factors don’t exist in Asia,” said Andrew Swan, head of Asia ex-Japan equities at the Man GLG unit of the London-based asset manager.

“The foundations are much stronger now in Asia than in other markets.”

SINGAPORE/HONG KONG (Sept 4): As global equities struggle after the Federal Reserve's (Fed) latest hawkish rhetoric, Southeast Asia's growth outlook is making the region an investor favourite.

Most of the region's biggest economies are expected to grow at least 5% this year, according to estimates compiled by Bloomberg, with the scrapping of pandemic-era restrictions offering a key boost.

Malaysia more than doubled its annual target for tourists following an uptick in recent months, while Thailand expects to reap in US$11 billion (RM49.33 billion) from a surge in foreign visitors in the second half.

The composition of Southeast Asia's equity benchmarks — low tech weighting and relatively high ratio of bank shares — is also favourable in a rising global interest-rate environment.
