This peanut will be compounded and grow bigger and bigger...

Cherroy, in curent situation, which reits you would want to buy? I am thinking to collect back my $$ in CIMB unit trust fund that I put in year 1995. 15 years = 100% more only.
If the same amount is put as 7% return, I will get 157%. The different could be paid to the fund manager year in year out.

So a little peanuts do made different in long term.

Yup, don't look down the 2-3% difference, over long term, it could be huge especially compounded, as you can get those dividend received for reinvestment, or as fresh capital to invest elsewhere.

I just bought Qcap last month.
Now hibernating, and keep close eye on Sunreit and CMMT.

Sunreit if being included in overseas reit indices, I may buy even at 0.88 level.
CMMT a bit tough, price quite stubborn, don't want to go down.

7% over 11 years compounded, Rm100 become Rm200 already.
3% (FD) over 11 years, Rm100 become only not more than Rm150.

Alamak, should say earlier, just sold my sunreit for peanuts money...

You are right, the difference between the 2-3% make a huge difference over long term. For this particular case, it took me 4 extra years to get to the same spot.

So, my target now are Qcap, CMMT and Sunreit. Follow taikor sure no wrong one.

Talking about REIT dividend, I'm thinking should it be effective only when your are loaded? like >10K investment.

If only have a few K, will it still worth the investment in REIT? or should focus on other stock for capital gain + dividend? Thanks.

I always curi curi buy from behind when taikor mention he is going to buy or has bought his favorite REITs.

I think Qcap can get RM1.02 today or next week.....

Go to Holland together,
got companies.

just curious.. who is the REIT guru/taikor you guys mentioned..

i'm new to reit.. hope you guys can share share some info.. ya

Holland chix are hot

I bought Rm1.01, cheaper 1 cent than you.

I actually average up the cost, previous only bought about Rm0.88 or so only.
Feel "painful" to buy the Rm1.01.

I also bought at 1.01 two weeks ago.. Let's go & learn Dutch together

So it is on reverse gear now. Hope to get some next week.

Same as what I am thinking here too, any experts here that may enlighten us?

No money is bad money...

Yar.. The chances of REIT going Holland is quite rare. The only time I remember is during the last economic crisis when foreign funds were liquidating because of margin calls elsewhere. And that was the golden time to accumulate reits actually.

Yup, there is no wrong to take the money on the table.

A lot of people always thinking my capital is small, so those dividend is peanut, so ended chasing those high beta stocks, goreng stocks around that potential have capital gain of 50% 100% one.
But in the end of the day, money burnt at least for majority people.

There are a handful of ordinary stocks that give good dividend as well plus potential higher capital gain.

So it depends on individual how to mix-bag between and taking the risk according to one's liking.

Reit is certainty not a best option, it is another option only for your investment money.

Fyi, from experience, it is not easy to make a double digit gain in the stock market on average over the long term.

I went to Holland a lot of time already in the old days or my early day in the market, you don't know only.
Get use (biasa) with Holland already.

Agree on this one. Actually for REIT, we probably have to do it the dollar cost averaging way. Got some money then buy some more.. Pretty soon, you can start to see the effect of the dividend plus you can snowball it back to get more units. So start small then build it big. Compounding will always be there for you, Your only enemy is time

By the way, noobie question here. What is the meaning of Holland ? How did the term come about ?
(Just realize that I don't know )

Finally CMMT in RM1 mark.

I Holland too last time and dont know what happened.

At least you are knowledgeable and understand the market. Me still in the learning stage and today learn, next minute forgot liao.

But I am grateful for your unselfishness of sharing your valuable knowledge to all of us here.

Whizzer, Holland is a nice place but dont go often. Layman terms, buy wrong counter and lose $$
