Yeah, Durian runtuh at the same when rabbit hit the tree!!!!

Cherroy taikor - my "sell" button also 99.99% destory liao.

Just realised my posting (re. no sell button) this morning has trigger so many comments from forummers.

Let me clarify my position. Basically I am getting more "kian si + kian su" since 2010 as upgraded to old uncle status liao.

I invest mostly in fundamental stock (my own definition and I hope I am right) like Maxis, PBB, BKAWAN, Calberg, Nestle, etc and REITs counters. So far, they give constant dividend every year and capital appreciation as of today is significantly high! These counters made up around 90-95% of my total stock portfolio. My previous experience was that I can sold these counters for a very good capital gain; but I will never able to find alternative investment that will give me the same constant dividend or similiar ROI.

But of course, my hand get itchy sometime. Therefore, I have bought some stock recommended by lyn forummer previously for medium term holding (6 - 18 holdings). Example like DRBHCOM, Tambun, Ivory, Smartag and a few more. Some I still suffered paper losses as of today!

@ Boon, I have separate emergency fund in FD and A1SM/ASW funds. I only invest my extra / idle cash in shares and also reinvest using dividend receive every quarter. I have fully settled my housing loan at one go previously using my hard earn money saved while working oversea , therefore now I have huge extra cash for investment every month (not limited to shares).

My plan is to review my stok counters performance (and other investment) every quarter. But to be honest, I am lazy most of the time and merely update the latest market price. I hardly follow and read every single post in this thread anymore. Just come here to chit chat once a while. I think I frequent kopitiam much more whenever I am free. Haha

I appreciate the contribution from some sifu like Cheorry, Sky, Moneymonkey, Pana and more people for their sharing.

Hello Sky - my problem is that if I sell off these counter for one off huge gain, I don't know what other counters/alternative investment to go for. And if they can give me the same ROI. Also you need lots of time/effort to analyse and monitor the stock counter. First I am lazy, second is I hardly have time to check out the stock during working hours most of the time.

I am now more on dividend play. Getting excited to see the dividend payment shows up in my bank account almost every month.

Oh, do you still hold Tambun??? Thanks to you recommendation last time, I got quite good profit from AFG + AFFIN!

But how do you know when is the right time to sell? Personally I don't monitor the stock every day due to my work commitment. I supposed to review all my investment status on a quarterly basis, BUT.....

Sorry, what about the fruit case? Which counter?

I am still holding them.. Still waiting for TP 3.50

My personal preference is those good performance counters that pay constant and handsome dividend. But the problem is the share of this type of counters are very expensive now. The dividend yield is very low even though very generous dividend declared.

How do you define handsome dividend payout? dividend yield > 10%?

I remember you, GregPG01!!!!

You were asking the question "DRB shareholder, are you happy with your share price today?" to lyn forummers on a daily basis when DRB shares prices surge sudden out of due to some take over/merger rumours 2/3 years back!!!!! Glad to see you back in this thread.

Hello Bunny - did you buy PERSTIM last time? Not sure if the dividend yield will be substainable for long term. I need to check out the latest timah price and the world forecast supply and demand first.

PS. can I ask for ang pow from you? I am "return"newcomer that bought some shares today! Hehe
