I look at the performance of the individual companies. I dun really care about the GE.

I just keep collecting dividends. 

Not all. Only those with paper gain 10% & below.

The rest just let it roll. I am keeping 5~6 counters only eventually.

What about you? Any plans?

CI 1654 now, kind of bullish feel liao wor, you boh rasa meh? we started off with composite index 1530 this year. FYI.

Wokie. Thanks for the alert. 

Do you foresee another mini bull run prior the GE? 

@yokie

Definitely is GLC related counters lor.

I agree with DW method as well. Just that am diversifying to buying a small condo where I call it a Home, so am taking the chance to sell off & pour the money into my house. Again, no right or wrong one. I'm proud of myself

Paper gain? Realized gain? Combined? How long? Every year? Since started investment?

The mother of all bubbles is speculation. Futures is created to let investor hedge against risk. When excessive involvement will become speculation. Unless u have the brain of george soros how he manage his hedge fund, otherwise beter dont touch those derivatives. Nobody can really estimate the madness of the crowd. Most investors are irrational. The market out there has alot of nuisance. Just remeber this. 

Can tell me ur worry? Anyway, the fender guitar is classic. I am also a guitar fever. 

At least those privatisation is done at a premium over the market price.

To be fair, the old listed Maxis, is not the same current listed Maxis.

Bursa should revise their de-listed rule. Seriously. Otherwise those big shark keep bully small ikan bilis like us.

Got premium still better than offered at discounted price, right?
Unlike those treat-shareholders-like-ants type companies, eg Bonia, San Miguel

Anyway, I also dislike this type of practice
listed a company, good profits then take private
after a short period of years and list again in the name of 'unlocking values'
milking investors as much as they could

As the larger players already have their own regional networks, they are unlikely to route orders through the Asean Link. Hence, the link maybe viewed more of an infrastructure provision that is more relevant and beneficial to medium-sized brokers who have better credentials but lack the regional infrastructure to reach beyond their own borders.

benefits of the link included reduced transation costs, with brokerages now having direct access into other markets without having to go through another intermediary.

DJ MARKET TALK: CIMB Starts IHH Healthcare At Outperform, Target S$1.53
0811 GMT [Dow Jones] STOCK CALL: CIMB starts IHH Healthcare (Q0F.SG) at Outperform with S$1.53 target. "IHH's extensive footprint in a defensive sector is one of the best business models around. It possesses steady-growth profile, driven by unquenchable demands for better healthcare needs. This is a direct play on the rising global healthcare costs." It notes IHH operates an integrated healthcare business and related services, with market leadership in its three home markets of Singapore, Malaysia and Turkey as well as operations and investments in China, India, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Brunei and Macedonia. It adds, IHH's ability to capture the huge demand for medical travel is a big plus, with its key home markets able to act as regional hubs for medical travel. IHH's sponsorship of the Parkway Life REIT (C2PU.SG) also provides opportunities not readily available to other healthcare players, with possible further asset-recycling chances among its Malaysian assets, and with freed capital likely redeployed to growth frontiers, it says. The stock is flat at S$1.25. (leslie.shaffer@dowjones.com)

since it is one of the top ten volumes sure there are some who got burnt..

But according to US Laws, for  bankers who got involved in the listing of a co  cannot write recommendation letters for that co within a time frame. Be it one page or 100 pages.

Conflict of Interest is always there.

I thought they gave such good recommendations for MEGB too,only recently scrapping it.

I mean for serious investors, these sensitive things are rather important. After all, we aim to be world top class IPO centre.

" Bank of America-Merrill Lynch (BAC.N), CIMB (CIMB.KL) and Deutsche Bank (DBKGn.DE) are the lead global coordinators for the IHH listing, with Credit Suisse (MLPN.P), DBS (DBSM.SI), Goldman Sachs (GS.N) and Maybank (MBBM.KL) acting as joint bookrunners."
