Let's take this easy, didn't count in brokerage fee. With return of 5% p.a

You have RM3K

Stock A RM1

STOCK B RM3

Stock A = 3000/1 = 3000 unit

Stock B = 3000/3 = 1000 unit

Stock A = 3000 X (1 X 0.05%) = 150

Stock B = 1000 x ( 3x 0.05%) = 150

Is just the unit different, your return still the same.

If you want to diversify your portfolio with 3k, than just buy lesser unit, the price doesn't affect much as your return consider same %.

many thanks bro. was thinking a lot is 1000 units actually. forgotten its 100 units.

that is not the point..
the point is u shouldn't care if its RM1 or RM10 per share.
your amount invested will be ie. RM3K

most of msia reits gives around 5% and above.

may I know why your preference or RM1 share for reits?

don't worry. everyone is here to learn.

my initial plan was to get 1k unit each @ 1lot* thats why was looking at @rm1

btw 1 lot is 100 units in malaysia and that is the minimum to purchase.
how would u feel about 500 units at RM2?

Don't look for quantity, look for quality...

noting wrong ppl made mistake....

You can try to invest from there you will learn...once you bought you will understand what is quality.

Same like finding gf....different ppl have different behavior.

Same to reits.....once you buy and know more reits then you know who and how to choose.

many thanks for the advise all. the 3 listed out, are those any goods? probably taking amanahraya and amreits

I wud advise u pick Ytlreit among d 3 shortlisted Reits

YTLREIT has not moved a lot compared to other REITS but it offers one of the highest yield(constant DPU).
not much capital gain but the yield is pretty good

If an investor had bought Ytlreit @ 0.995 in Jan 14, ROI is around 11% (including Dividends)

But Ytlreit earning was poor.

Look at its EPS number.

go bursa, find those past annual report and quarter result and dissect 1 by 1.
compare each other and find your own gem.
since you want learn, why don't you start from now?

And yield isn't everything

U gotta look at revenue and earnings growth too

There is always a reason for the high yield.. it mean those REITs are just not popular.. for certain reasons

net property income growth

Thanks for the correction.

Earnings include property revaluation gains, which I think not so relevant for yield seekers.

Yield can only be paid out from realised gains, of which bulk contributed from net property income.

You cant buy one share. Min is 100 shares
