It may touch 1700 before correction? QE3 may join in the party soon too. Man this will become a worldwide party, what a great time to do GE! Nice pick, Ah Jib Gor.

I like what Dividend Warrior said, don't care share price up down, just think of dividend.
As for the rest of more risky/political-linked stocks, been trimming down holdings since last week. My cash has increased from 10% back to 20% now. Target at 35%.

@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

I was't aware on the CI & most counter comprises of divvy counters so can't kaching.
But as pointed out earlier and supported by yok gor, sell those counter in red and leave the green rolling.
I do agree that CI is at all time high and a minor correction will take place.


It's been a trend that construction in play during GE.
Perhaps some other sifus would provide some enlighten on this.

I thought the property currently at its peak and a burst will be coming soon..

Should have wait few months down the road.

I don't think using the % gain/loss as the reason for selling is a good one. Reason being, the one in red might be the growing one, just in consolidation mode. Those in green might just spike up for a while before trashing down. We should buy/sell only if we see the fundamental change in the company, yes, GE is near, but if we can afford to see our paper gain drop 50%, I do not see any big deal with it. I'm also keeping a lot of div counters, at the same time there are other counters growing. What I can do to reduce my risk is just to keep the div for the time being and accumulate cash, at the same time, selling stocks with lowered profit or below my expectation.

b4 this, he needs to table budget 1st~~

May i know anyone in this forum has made at least rm100k investing in bursa? Sry for the newbie question.

100k ? cumulative ? annually ? or any specific time frame ?
anyway.. i just kepoh... i'm far far far away from that figure

imo, a better way to benchmark performance is to calculate annual return in %...
and u can breakdown to dividend, cap gain, unrealized gains, etc...

ok... showed my face.. now go back to hiding lol...
dun wanna get crushed in the bull stampede...

Very nice present for you by the stock market.
A nice place call Home is 10000 times more important than any amount of money. So definitely support you to finally buy your own house. Bravo and a big Congrats!

never know when will it burst.. anyway property is better than holding cash..

Why do you say so?
AFAIK, Idris Jala wants increase the population of Greater KL to 10 million by 2020. That's, a nearly 50% increase. Demand will remain high in this region.

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

Now he knew we are serious here, won't simply talk one. The very first lesson a newbie should learn.
CI up 9.3 pts, lots of bearish future players must be burnt hard now. Many drop glasses for the past few months, they may already loss big in shorting futures since breakout 1600.

think panajie will be one good example...

Perhaps Panajie can be a living example. Realised paper profit to purchase a condo.
