Let us say if tomorrow (expiry date) close at RM1.30, Kenanga will have to pay RM0.10 per share (RM1.30 - RM 1.20) to the call-warrant holder. Is this correct?
The banks only make money from structured warrants upon their expiry, because banks will never know whether they can keep the initial money, or need to fork out additional cash to compensate the holders.
Upon expiry: If settlement price (i.e last 5 days trading price) < strike price, the bank keeps all the money that they received at the time they issued. The warrant holder lost their bet. If settlement price > strike price, then the bank calculate how much to compensate.
Calculation of settlement amount = [(Settlement price - Strike price)/Conversion ratio] x no. of Warrants
Conclusion: If I were a bank, I would issue warrants if I think that: 1) prices are increasing now (so that it can attract losers to buy my warrants) 2) prices are expected to drop before expiry (so that the losers will cry and I keep the money). 3) malaysians have not yet realised that they are being cheated by such genius products. 4) I can manipulate the price of the mother share during the last 5 days, if I need to.
From this perspective, it's not clear whether banks will goreng the counter so that they can let go of their warrants. But it is clear that they will "hope" for the price to go below the strike price upon expiry. *And their hope often come true.
To be fair, property stocks most traded at single digit pe now. Not just ksl. This is sector outlook issues. If you buy last yr or last two years, you are basically stuck. What to look for in term of pe changes? Changes in policy towards property developers. For example allowing dibs, softening of policy restriction on two or more houses buying etc.
Top notch eco world also single digit pe, what to expect then for the rest....its sector outlook basically, and fund mgrs will avoid property sector as for now as well I think, and they are buying up all steel stocks.
Well, never the least, I guess property might return only after 2019, after a major crash in either China or UsA. For time being , ksl is real good pick for long term investor. But with no much dividend expectation and sector outlook bad, I will only have small position now.
If talk about above quality, low pe, lower than nta, there are just tons of them now in property sector. It is whether your view in near future good or bad, and when is the best timing to buy.
Give you an example, plenitude also crazily low valued. Net cash, single pe as well. Div ok and consistent. Mahsing, huaayang, etc....too many......shl. Tons, just tons of them. Unless it get a long term impact like steel, changes in govt policy, which is long term impact, else I guess not much motivation here,
I remember reading this before. Policy changes although won't be noticed overnight their impact, but it's impact is long term and can be huge. Policy changes always have long term and meaningful impact. React fast before results come.
Trade with theme trends. Just like last.time timber. If you all old enough to remember a stock, lingui. Last time I managed to triple in one year time. Really great moment. Steel is trend now for next 2 years. I guess it's safe to have steel.
I managed to buy at 1.0 when bone introduce that day midnight..that time i queue it early morning..matched..then 920am start fly..this time gap up directly
i believe ksl really very undervalue. price is what we buy and value is what we expected to get.. i believe ksl will move soon... volume increasing and expected breakout
It won't as they will press down the price again for certain parties especially LTH to accumulate at cheap price...It should hover around 1.20-1.25 for the medium term...
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....
