I agree with 3iii invest only on those companies that are well managed and give yerly dividend but you must also monitor the external and internal factors that will cause the company doing extremely well or extremly poor and time your selling.

Timing your selling and buying. This sounds so simple. Many tried. I have not met any that can do so consistently, even in i3 investor forum.

Sell quickly when there is something fundamentally wrong with the company's business which you assessed to be permanent. Sold Transmile; financial shenanigan. Sold Maybulk; this company made most of its profits from selling their bulk carriers. With the financial downturn in 2008, this business model is kaput. There are many similar companies trying to sell their bulk carriers too. Sold Guan Chong in past: upside limited, downside risks. Sold Hai -O in past: turnaround company. Full value realised, limited upside, bigger downside. Acquired and held onto KAF until taken private: deeply undervalued due to valuable asset (land in Conlay).

In general, the reason for selling quickly is if you perceive the company's business has fundamentally deteriorated beyond rescue. You will need to sell quickly. As for the rest, you have time to analyse and study. Do not just sell because the price of a stock has gone down. However, will need to focus on its business to reassess why if any?

What I mean time your selling is sell at near the peak when the share price rise is running ahead and beyond the fundamental (overpriced). And buy back when the share price is oversold.

Stay with high quality growth companies. You will remain fine for the long term. Only sell when its fundamentals deteriorated beyond rescue.

Pricing or timing.

Timing is a foolish endeavour in my opinion. We can see many examples in this forum.

Pricing makes a lot of sense. Buy when it is priced low and sell when it is priced high, relative to its intrinsic value.

There are TWO ways to pricing strategy;
1. Buy low and sell high (partially or wholly).
2. Buy low and never sell even when overvalued (unless it is obviously ridiculously priced).

Strategy 2 ensures that you continue to hold great companies for the long term to gain from the power of long term compounding your gains.

Comments:

Stay focus on the few companies with superior returns.
The majority fail to beat the returns provided by risk free FDs. Will need to learn the reasons for these?
JTiasa is touted in this forum as the most undervalued relative to its NTA price. It is priced lowly for obvious reason: just look at its returns. At the bottom of the pile.
Those who wish to invest long term in plantation stocks should seriously focus on Kim Loong and United Plantations.

Top 30 shareholding changes in DLady

Of these 30s, comparing their shareholding in 2023 to 2022:
1. 17 still own the same number of shares in 2023 as the previous year.
2. 7 sold some shares (small amount relative to their shareholdings).
3. 3 bought more shares compared with previous year.
4. 3 (2 funds and 1 individual) dropped out of the top 30s list and were replaced by new shareholders.


Conclusion:
Among the Top 30 shareholders in DLady, the overwhelming majority are still holding onto their shares. The share price of DLady has dropped significantly over that 1 year period.

Stay with high quality growth companies. You will remain fine for the long term. Only sell when its fundamentals deteriorated beyond rescue.

The questions that beg to be answered: is Dlady still a growth companies? Did DLady fundamentals have deteriorated and now cannot compete with old peers and new comers?

10-15 years ago, Dlady doubled in price every 5 years to RM30 a share. Then 3i said he would hold Dlady as it would double again to RM60, latest by 5 years ago. Today, 10 years have passed and Dlady didn’t rise to RM120, and settle at RM21 instead. 10 years of opportunity cost gone, plus RM9 losss.

Successful long term investing is a very interesting for a small group of investors.

This morning, I had an interesting conversation with a typical investor. :-) She shared that she and her husband also invest in the stock market. She would buy a share and when this goes up by a certain amount, they will sell to pocket the gain. She mentioned one share they have "invested" was PBB. Imagine if they have the ability and discipline to buy PBB at below intrinsic value and never have to sell, it is probable that the gains will be much more than all the transactions they had on this stock. To understand this, restudy my post on compounding investing formula:

Simplified formula for compound interest:
A = P (1+r)^t

A = How much money you end up with
P = The amount of money you invest
r = The annual return your money earns while invested
t = The number of years your money is invested

When you invest in the stock market, always have an optimistic attitude. Those with a slightly optimistic attitude fair better than those who are always fearful and pessimistic.

Warren Buffett once said, “The first rule of an investment is don't lose [money]. And the second rule of an investment is don't forget the first rule. And that's all the rules there are.”

So is Warren Buffett attitude optimistic or pessimistic?

My portfolio is extremely resilient. I am very happy with my investing philosophy. Hardly ever being rocked by other people's opinion (though noted).

At a certain price, a company is too expensive. At another, fairly valued. And at another price, even undervalued.

The milk industry faces challenges. The whole industry faces challenges. In the West, many are switching to non-dairy milk. There are issues of this industry contributing to climate change. Today, the costs of their raw products are very high. Margins have shrunk significantly. Are these permanent or temporary?

DLady is still growing its revenues. However, its profit margins have shrunk tremendously. It also faces a period of increasing capital expenditure. Its balance sheet remains strong.
Compared with Farm Fresh, it is so much cheaper and of higher quality.

Always buy with a margin of safety. You should buy at a price so low that probility of the upside gain will be many times the downside loss.

Many of the above stocks have given positive gains over the long period from 2010 to 2023. However, their share prices are volatile. Historically, prices of these stocks fluctuated hugely. It was not uncommon to see stock prices going up 50% and dropping the equivalent 1/3rd over a 52 weeks period.

Thus, you may entertain a loss because you have paid too high to own a stock, though the stock has given a positive return during the same investing period.

It is the long term investments in the stock market that do well. If you invest like a gambler in a casino, you are not likely to do well.

Property counters: How are shareholders rewarded? How exciting are property counters in terms of investment returns?
Property counters

1. Land held for development.

2. Land being developed and properties for sale.

3. Investment properties held for rental income.



How are shareholders rewarded?

After successful development and realisation of profits from the projects, the property counter may choose to reward the shareholders by paying half their earnings as dividends.

The investment income from properties held as investment can also be partially disbursed as dividends.

[How exciting are property counters in terms of investment returns?]

Valuing Real Estate Developers

A common method to value real estate developers is using the Revalued Net Asset Value ("RNAV") approach which basically determines the net asset value of a real estate developer by adding up

the change in value of the investment properties held by the company,
the surplus value of properties held for development using Discounted Cash Flow method and
the net asset value of the company with any other adjustments that are deemed necessary.


Usually a discount or premium percentage is multiplied with the RNAV base on the developers other qualities such as management capabiltiies, branding, track record, etc. A smaller developer with poor record of continuously generating consistent income is usually given a significant discount to its RNAV.

Using the RNAV approach only takes into account of what the developer can earn with the assets that it has in its books at the time of the valuation. If properly applied, it is usually more conservative than the market approach such as P/E multiples.

However, to use this method, it requires a lot of work in revaluing the properties held by the developer, making it difficult to implement by most people as information needed to determine RNAV needs some skill in obtaining.

The price earnings ratio method could also be useful to cross check the RNAV method.

How to analyze real estate developers
How to analyze real estate developers

Real estate stocks make up a significant number of companies in Asian stock exchanges and many of them are among the the most volatile stocks. Whether the real estate developer is listed or not, they are influenced by a host of cyclical factors ranging from government policies, interest rates, unemployment rates, affordability, etc. Hence, it is important to understand how real estate companies can be analyzed.


Profit Model

Real estate industry can be separated into the following sub-industries or types of real estate developers:

Residential real estate developers
Commercial and mixed use real estate developers
Industrial real estate developers

Profit model of residential real estate developers

Residential real estate developers are more dependent on economies of scale than ever because of increasing land prices and declining rate of increase in residential property prices. In many developing countries, developers used to be able to acquire land at cheap prices and hope for rapid increase in home prices to make huge profits. In developed countries, land prices are higher, and price increases are more muted. Hence, brands and good management are playing an increasingly important role.


Profit model of commercial real estate developers

As prime real estate for commercial developments become more scare, commercial real estate developers tend to prefer to have rental incomes rather than selling units so that they can have consistent income and manage the properties. These developers are also more likely to sell their commercial properties to real estate investment trusts to free up capital and many are REITs that also develop properties.


Profit model of industrial real estate developers

Industrial real estate developers operate more like commercial real estate developers as they seek to have stable rental incomes and also sometimes selling their properties. Some industrial estate developers might even have a fund to invest in promising industrial companies so as to achieve higher profits.



Factors that Affect Value


1. Land bank - the value of a real estate developer is directly influenced by its land bank. As the larger the land bank, usually means the developer can make more profits from developing the land banks later. Hence, the land bank that a real estate company has is always disclosed in detail in the listed companies' reports.

2. Inventories - Real estate inventories can be separated into a few categories. Usually increasing values of construction-in-progress and land held for development will translate to higher future earnings for the company:
Completed developments - properties whose construction has been completed
Construction-in-progress - means the value of properties under construction.
Land held for development - value of land help for future developments.
Investment properties - properties held for rent or sale

3. Customers deposits - for residential projects, it is often that developers will collect customers deposits or even prepayments of entire houses prior to completion of the units. As these properties are pre-sold and their profit and loss have yet to be recognized in the income statement, growing customer deposits could signal increasing revenue and most likely profits in the coming years ahead.

4. Housing prices - the profits from real estate developers that primarily sell their developments come from selling the units at above costs. Hence, the moving of housing prices have direct impact on the profitability of residential real estate developers. Usually the stock price of real estate developers have high correlation with the anticipated housing price direction.

5. Rental rates - Rental rates are especially important for commercial and industrial real estate developers as most of them do not sell all the units that they developed but they keep these units for rental returns. Rental rates have direct bearing on stock prices of such developers and REITs.

6. Industry consolidation - as economic difficulties mount and economies of scale becomes more important, mergers and acquisition activities will also drive prices of real estate companies as the merged entities might be more efficient given a larger land bank.

7. Macro economic factors - government policies play a huge role in controlling property prices as the following factors will determine the direction of property prices. We have listed

Interest rates Up Negative
Land supply Down Positive on short term price but will affect future
profitability if land bank dries up
