Been watching this thread with great interest. I will recommend that you guys watch Starhub - potential for growth is good and great dividend payout too. Best of both worlds.

Starhub is an Index Stock.

Okay,.. guys, will participate more then,...

Yes, I have heard of Mr WCLing too - indeed a sifu : Mr Wilfred Ling.

When is the next reporting day for Gens ?

Guys, next reporting date for GenSP is Nov 12. Should be really good numbers. So, do what's in your mind.

For sudden news and quick updates, you will need to open an account with a stockbroker and tell your dealer rep to send to you.

For chats, rumours and discussions : there are many forums around.

Don't buy the MIT IPO anymore, guys, these GLCs, they will drop back to near IPO price soon after that,...

Reporting Day for GenSP is Nov 11 or 12 next month. It will not drop, though there might be some setbacks/dips now and then because of profit-taking by short-term holders.

Wlcling, win or lose, I think you are doing us a very big favour here by posting your trades, and you are really helping a lot of us in understanding the trading world. There is nothing to be concerned about in the results of your trades, what that matters is you are helping to contribute a very important lesson here for all of us.

I'm sure many others here are of the same opinion, we are learning FROM YOU.

No one else would do what you are doing, perhaps for fear of showing to others if they are losing, yeah, if they are winning, then they would show, such double standards. But not someone like yourself with better principles in life.

I, for one, appreciate what you are doing.

I do hope you will not stop posting your trades here. We are all learning from your effort here. A big thank you to you too.

Anne, thank you for the support. I'm sure Ling will appreciate it.

It's more like a few more days till next result day. I think this result will also be quite exciting.

GenSP, chiong arr,.........

Guys,... if you intend to open a brokerage account in Sgp, and cost is the main criteria, then look no further, at this moment, the cheapest is : DBS Vickers : ONLY SGD 18.00 per transaction, or 0.18%, whichever is higher.

But you must have a DBS Internet Banking Account to be able to work with this "cheap account" - we call it the Cash Upfront Account.

I am not an employee of DBSV, just helping out you guys to find better brokerage charges only.

Saw quite come concerns heresince this morning. I always say, one good way to mitigate emotional distractions is by taking a few analysts' views, provided there are sufficient analysts providing coverage.

Things could be worse if no analysts provided coverage.

Comments this morning on GenSP, in summarised form from analysts here :-

1) Raised To Buy From Outperform and Target Raised To S$2.93 From S$2.06 By Daiwa

2) Target Raised To S$2.65 From S$1.68 By Credit Suisse


3) Cut To Neutral From Overweight and Target Raised To S$2 From S$1.55 By JPMorgan

4) Target Raised To S$2.75 From S$2.45 By Citigroup

And a short write-up too :-

Genting Singapore (G13.SG) may slip as sequential fall in 3Q10 earnings suggests rival Las Vegas Sands, which owns Marina Bay Sands, gaining market share in Singapore. Net profit halved at S$187.8 million vs 2Q10''s S$396.5 million as revenue down 24.0% at S$744.0 million, although better than S$93.3 million loss year earlier. EBITDA at S$346.5 million with 47% margin vs S$513.9 million, 52% margin in 2Q10. "We view the results as disappointing, and believe (they) could lead to negative price reaction. 2Q results were clearly one-offs, and investors extrapolating that momentum will need to lower expectations," says Goldman Sachs, which has Neutral call with S$1.46 target. Despite potential pullback, stock remains one of best performers in Singapore, +78.1% since August 12, when it reported return to profitability in 2Q10. Shares flat at S$2.28 yesterday.

Seeing the above, would be a great chance to buy-in.

GenSp still has more tricks up he sleeves, do yuo think it's so easy for MBS to defeat her ?

Ronn, take a look at the link below, which contains a pdf file, then look at Slide No 12/27. Your answer lies on the lefthand-most vertical bar : AIMSAMPIREIT.

But highest yield comes with its price too - safety of counter and sustainability of the yield. Please do your DD.

I'll tell you what I buy then, perhaps you can have a look too. I am in First REIT.

As for the history and performance, read it up. But there is a small inconvenience here - you will have to do it quickly. If you like it, this is a very good chance to go in.

There is a Rights Issue which is about to start, for it has been proposed last week. Book Closure Date is on Dec 3.

To me - this is a very good chance for investors to go in. I won't talk about the counter too much, I'll be neutral here. But with all the DD I have done, this is my largest holding.

Good luck !

Ans as in the above. Good luck.

Thank you for the update, Ronn.

I am sure you are aware too that you are now entitled to buy Rights Issues at a Rights Price @ 0.50 each, whereby, if my memory serves me correctly, it's a 4-for-5 arrangement. Please prepare your funds for this, and if you are not keen to take up your Rights, do sell them away later during the Rights Trading period. But I would think since you are so keen, you would definitely take-up the Rights too.

Well, I hoped I am right about First REIT, in the present and in the future.

No problem, and glad to be able to help out here.

Ronn, if you have purchased the units yesterday, means you are READY to take-up the Rights, otherwise, your average price later will fall to around 0.700 per unit - the TERP concept if you are familiar with it. Unless you are saying you would like to make the profit first - a bird in hand literally.

I'll take up the Rights if I have the budget - for me.
