Last year's performance is pre-expected due to dip in crude oil. Overall, in fiscal year 2018 Petronm still rake in RM224 million in net profit and it was a bad year. So today's flux will be a battle between traders and investor being investor waiting for the price to be cheaper to buy in. and traders with scream mask are throwing off their shares. As for me, I am waiting to buy more.
Looks like the answer to the question on profitability was A - Loss. What a total disappointment ! Looks like inventory cost which has a bearing on crack spreads has a huge bearing.
I'm curious as to what Pet-Dag's result will be. It should also be bad due to high inventory cost.
From friends working in petronm, life is tough as cost cutting measure in everything now. Guess there's a need to contain cost. I think as usual the price of petronm should hover around the usual PE 4-6 and no chance of earning meteorically, now so not so much of catalyst to have a boom in any coming quarters. With PE=6, the price is around RM5 and will have to see how much dividend will be giving out, usually dividend will be pro-rated according to earnings. Last year 2018 dividend is 0.25 which was 4-5% of the price at that time, this year i forsee to be around 0.18-0.22 sen since the Q3 and Q4 of 2018 was pretty solid but Q119 and Q219 not so encouraging. That translate to around 2.5 - 3% yield at current price 6.89. If oil price keep dropping, this will incur inventories cost to retailers as well as petronm. Thats the dilemma. This is only my 50Cent, for your reading pleasure only..hehe
I do not have stake in petronm la, but I think it is a good company but not at this price. they are aggressively opennning new station which is good but it takes average 7 years to break even. so year don't ask you to sell or buy
Because the 3,5,10 year intrinsic value of this company is alot more.
And when i know what its really worth, i dont like to speculate in short term price movements.
One can argue that i should have probably read the sentiment abit better and sold it a few days ago and bought it after.
But i have no intention of using my short term trading muscles. I intend to kill it.
However, imagine if the HIBISCUS scenario happens, and it drops like 10 sen before gaining 20 sen the next day. And i feel horrible and wait for it to go down, but it keeps going up, making me even more stressed and thus impairing decision making.
No thanks, investing is hard as it is, no point making it even harder by having a short term perspective.
In any event, that's why i saved my last batch money for after results.
==== qqq3 but why would he (Choivo) have bought Petron if he actually know it will be reporting disappointing results?
Believe the guy or not?

That is roughly 15% IRR. I can tell you companies in Bursa with 15% ROE consistently less than 20.
Buying topglove now is 30 year ROI.

My margin loan is 10% of portfolio size. I can settle it tmr if i want. Im paying 4.85% FD is now 4.65% for MBSB. Sounds like a good deal to take a small one. My max is 30-40% of portfolio, but i doubt ill use that much unless KLSE is less than 1400 points.
Haha i think you need to queue behind the many others who want my kidneys!
=== (S = Qr) Philip Actually qqq, Jon choivo not wrong leh. He hedged. He said either make a small lost or a small profit.
Either way he say he will take that queue at 5.4 from woolei.
Whether falling knife or shooting cannon tomorrow no one will know.
But probability states that if you didn't go on margin it should be ok la.
Oh wait, did Jonathan Choi portfolio invest on margin? Good luck! My advice, if you don't know what you are doing, don't take margin.
If you need a loan, I can take payment in kidneys. 22/02/2019 08:02
Integrity is doing the right thing. This includes not front running KYY.
I've made very clear, i have a good idea of the long term intrinsic value of this company, and i feel the price now is far below it. And so i'll buy, with only a small bias towards short term price movements.
Imagine 2008 recession the house auction market. You go to the auction, literally nobody. You buy a house at almost 8% yield, you feel smart, cover installment comfortably.
Every 2 weeks new auction, every time nobody come, the houses in the same area is selling 10% cheaper every time there is new auction. 6 weeks later, you could have bought it for 30% cheaper.
What do you do? Ball shake get nervous and sell? No what. You check, double check and triple check to make sure you know what you're buying and what its worth.
And try to buy more. The price can drop more for all you care.
Drop even more? good, can make 11% yield on a house you can leverage 10X. Literally 110% gain in a year. No need think so much.
Same thing here. Just much harder.
Anyway, ive spoken too much to this particularly odd specimen of humanity. Got better things to do. =======
