How's come no smilies in prosperity god?? 

Company normally give dividend is don care wat time or how long u hold the share, as long as u hold it before they give dividend right?

ok la i used some extravagant words Yup, China stocks are very cheap, compare banking sector to msia one, like PBE, which is overvalued by 2 times more thanks to ppl goreng. China one maybe 20% overvalue. Plus their market cap is bigger.

So bro, why suddenly those HK listed china company share price dropped recently? becos of CNY ppl need money? lolz..

I've no idea ... but corrections/dips after a strong run are perfectly normal. I'm fully invested (99% in overseas stocks) and my picks mostly blue chips, all fundamentally strong - so I no longer monitor them every day or week.

I see u are a TA guy. IMHO, ABC is not as fundamentally strong as the other Big 4 banks (higher NPL etc) but offers higher growth due to its exposure to rural areas.

U wanna know the volume per trade? I see alot block trades recently for ABC bank.. not much confident i can see but i see an upward crossover in MACD and RSI within the range, so hopefully it is a bullish run when stock market opens.

I'm not familiar with CCBC ... do u mean CCB? 

For privacy reasons, I don't want to list out the stocks in my portfolio.

But .... ICBC and CCB are both very profitable (ROEs of > 20%),  and they are simply "too important to fail"   

Their current dividend payout ratio is 35% .... market speculation (note: speculation) has it this will increased to 40% and eventually 50% in 2014. I think this is possible 

Yok, from bloomberg data, it is about 1.3.
But for me, uncle buffet once taught us, quote "you no need to know a women's age by telling whether she is old or not". I think these bank are quite cheap without even value them seriously.
The most important is people understand the downward risk of bank.
Beside all the Non performing loan (hardly to tell now,because banks tends doing good when economy good, but bad during people unable to pay loans) issues, Basel 3 will challenge some of the bank's reserve requirement because some of them are overstated due to unqualified capital such as preferred shared is included in their reserve calculation.

Other issues such as convertible bond, while convertible at the premium of these stock certain % of price, will diluting the existing holder. Just make sure those those convertible are not issued price that are too low and with large quantity.

Hope these help
