OSK Holdings carried out a corporate exercise in 2014, to merge PJ Development Holdings Berhad and OSK Property Holdings Berhad into the group. Effectively OSK Holdings is now a property counter with property development & construction, investment properties and some manufacturing as it main operations.
But is this really the case? When you look at its profit profile as shown in the chart, you will find that the bigger contributor over the past 9 years was not from its operations. The non-operating segment - its investments in RHB bank - accounted for a bigger part of its profits. https://i.postimg.cc/RhS06qnH/OSK-profit-profile.png
So, is this a property company or something else? If you are thinking of investing in OSK, shouldn’t you be looking at the performance of the Malaysian banking sector rather than the property sector? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQXpcrWj0Sw

The nice thing about accumulating dividend stocks when their prices are low is that they keep edging up and here, they moved up, and even though market is just up +0.14%, I have 22 green stocks, offsetting 11 red stocks, and thanks to these green stocks including OSK, my portfolio made new all time high again today. My average OSK entry price EXCLUDING dividends is 91 sen. Still holding on at 1.61. With dividends and some small profit taking in the past, my average cost price is 45 sen. As it keeps paying dividends, one day, I guess I will own the entire amount for free. And at that time, I look forward to a market crash and with the cash, buy again at low price. No need to do active trading, the cash dividends paid out does it for you and best of all, I haven't looked at OSK charts much this year or read about it, maybe once every quarter or so.
Chart wise, definitely can't sell ... especially when average cost price is 45 sen. Definitely not chasing, but will keep holding and ignore price movement. Got to give the bull the chance to try to break 24 year high - last time was 2.19 at Feb 2000. Minority chance within 1 year but I like to hope there's a majority chance before this bull run is over.
Ok, did a quick blog post on OSK to better share my thoughts. It may be low odds today, but after nearly 3 decades of ding dong, if it breaks above 2.19 its all time high over 3 decades, technicians will tell you that the breakout will be spectacular i.e. we could be looking at RM5 just using projection price methodology. Its NTA is 2.97, at the peak of a market bull run, it is not unusual for a stock like this to trade at its book value or a higher in a mania. All this payout is contingent on making a new high first and contingent on a bull run that will hit a peak. Minority odds. But my average cost is now only 45 sen, below COVID low, so, I'm very patient and in no rush and prefer to do nothing. Don't chase. Best of luck. Cheers!
In case you're wondering what price I sold for partial profit taking and why, it was 16 Jan 24, at 1.49. I forgot now why I did that, most likely it was trying to take advantage of the 1.50 round number resistance, thinking it will hit and fall and I can pick it back up again on the cheap ... but I never could buy it back on the cheap ... and now, it went past 1.61 today.
This is what happens when we are not a trader ...
And it's so difficult even if you can watch because the market gyrations will consume you.
Much better, much easier to ignore and collect dividends and just focus on monthly charts over 2-3 decades to pick the peak of the bull market and stay focused on the market crashes and then just bet a significant chunk of your net worth to make a difference to your life. Otherwise, most of the time, ignore the noise up and down on small moves.
Warren Buffet said that investing is best done if you imagine you can punch only 20 tickets over your investing lifetime. When do you punch that ticket?
The trouble with traders is that the theory sounds great on paper, but incredibly hard to practice. Whereas with only 20 tickets to punch over a lifetime, when do you punch?
I would open a 20-30 year chart and then make that decision. You can't go wrong doing what Mr Buffet recommends.
Quarter Result on 30-Jun-2024[#2] QoQ + 13.25% YoY + 45.78%. ( Lagenda Properties Results ) __________________ First property Co results announcement ( Good )---I think Big property Co announcing soon---- also Good. Institutional Buyers grabbing OskH ( today) before announcement
Over the past 8 years, OSK has transformed itself from a financial services company to a property group although financial services still accounted for more than half of the net assets.
Because of this set-up, while OSK's main operation is property development, a big part of the profits still came from its investment in RHB. The Malaysian property market had been soft for many years, but there are signs of recovery. Hopefully we will then have both cylinders firing thereby boosting OSK performance.
Universal Cable, based in Kuching, primarily manufactures and sells telecommunication and power cables. The company was placed under liquidation on May 15 this year. Olympic Cable, meanwhile, produces a wide range of cables, including copper, aluminum, fire-resistant, solar DC, fiber optic and transmission cables. ________________________________________ Liquidates assets worth 146mil OLH buys for 85mil ( with RHB 15sen Dividend )---I think OLH aims is major supplier for Data Cables for Data Center---Universal Cable should capture Data Center Cables But too Bad in Liquidation----so fat profit flows into OLH hands
Maybe OshK is the biggest supplier of Cables in Malaysia. Getting Big is one things but matching Demand is very difficult. The timing is just perfect. Massive demand comes from Data Centre and Malaysia has been very strict on Imported Cables ( Dumping quality) esp. China ones ( always not 100% pure Cables )
lets hope OLH gives "Huge" Dividend before 1 Jan 2025 to beat 2% tax on dividend....Any way 2% dividend tax is NOT gazetted yet ( could be a temporary Tax option that can be removed before GE16 ) My BET most Bursa Companies will NOT announce Dividend until the Last Qr of 2025 to give Time for Heavy Cash Balance Co time to figure out how to avoid 2% Tax for Co owner
