Dividend yield is still good at 83cts for 2020.. If we buy at rm11 it translates to 7.5%..FD is 1.5% and expected to go down further..

Thailand rate is just 0.50% So Thailand Bank FD should be around 1.00%. Malaysia should
lower to 1% with FD at 1.25--1.35%------Even BAT price at RM20 (with 83cents dividend), you
are still at 4.15%----Of course that doesnt including a 30% increased stock price ( say you bought
at 10 )

BAT today should be priced similar to it's beer company comrades Heim and Carlsberg in the 20+ range. BAT still undervalued and will eventually get there.

Average Malay youth spends about RM100 on Vape per month( lowest estimate ) There are more
than 1 million Vape users ( excluding Chinese + Indian ). So per Quarter is 300mil Sales, if BAT
capture 50% market , addition of 150mil to Sales-----Very Hard to see why 50cents dividend is
NOT possible. OR RM50 by year End

Vape will be the game changer. By the time the Vape sales come in for BAT you will not see BAT share price below 15 again, or even below 20 I would say.

I took a gamble buying BAT in my margin account in October...a gamble that the capital gain + dividends will easily cover the margin interest.

My cost was $10.18...gamble paid off =)

IB knows BAT is a sleeping giant coz when Vape business comes later it will soar and will say good bye to this low share prices we are seeing now. That time those want to chase will have pay Heim and Carlsberg prices at the very least.

I laugh when naysayers say this is a sunset business. At it's worst QR last year hit by the worst pandemic in a century BAT can still make at least 50+ million net profit and yet they call it sunset business?

Cigarrette was 10% Tax ----30years ago. Vape is 10% tax in 2021----How explosive was Cigs
20years ago----Same as Vape Demand in 2021----Bankers Nuts are shrinking Daily---Call Warrant
Closing, they are throwing every Negative things in But i think it will End Up as Glove Counters.
Next Qr Bankers will said "50" no choice

By doing nothing for the whole year until today already received RM1.16 dividend. 10x more will get back all the initial investment. Good deal.

Need to wait till next quarter announcements to see how hard the additional enforcement on government side actually translated to any improvements to BAT's bottomline.

But from the management's commentary, it is neutral sounding at best considering that their commentary was prepared around this period of time and they don't write anything upbeat for future. Usually for company with possible good upcoming future quarter or good improvements, they will write it. Example like UWC, they mentioned about expansion and current production floor eating into normal corridors.

so i will say that upcoming quarter Q1 will still be somewhat meh....as the government need a little time to "warm up" to cracking down. Q2 would be a better reflection of whether turning point materialises. If by then still neutral tone, cannot be optimistic on government enforcement on black market ciggs....

alcohol & rokok is something needed in the world since long time ago...
only is if sell legal(with tax) or illegal(no tax) ,then the company earn less
else..buy and keep ...get dividend ... re-invest dividend ...buy and keep..and repeat... then your son will no worry for his future.

This CIMB Tp in Oct 2019 (pre-pandemic ) same Quarter as 2020. The price falls short and
depressed by Covid and lately operation by Call Warrant operators.

Any way 1Q21 will blow this Tp away like Dust.

Usually Not many Call Warrants are actually subscribed unless it is very cheap at initial offering.
If things DonT turn out Good for CW, operator just Stop issuing New ones Or buy back issued
ones. This forced conversion rate to be Much higher than Mother price. (surging mother is
always a big, big headache for Operator---but they can reduce losses by diversified into many
"Different" stock CW to reduce Risk ) Bank do report "loss" from stock exposure

From previous observations, Banker will fight to control Mother price if within 20% range. But in
TopGlove case( also Bat case )Bankers will buy back warrants And start sapu Mother at Cheap
price by giving low, low Tp....When they are done "sapu..ing" . they will suddenly give High
TP like in Glove Counters----20, 30, 40 suddenly 80, 90.
