QUOTE(wodenus @ Sep 13 2015, 08:17 PM) So you believe Padini to be a stable company, that will provide a stable consistent dividend at this rate, that I can hold forever? Yes I think so. Now that I have answered and taught you something, could you answer me back ? I have asked the third time....don't be selfish. Teach me something I don't know. Or I have taken the wrong data. Or wrong knowledge. Or anything else wrong you just point out QUOTE(Showtime747 @ Sep 13 2015, 11:22 AM) Let's get back to your Southern Co and Con Ed. Their dividend yield is about 4+%. I assume you are a non-resident alien. That would be taxed at 30%. Ignoring the cost of dividend charged by your brokerage. You are getting <3% for your investment, which is less than FD rates 4%. Why would you consider it "good" stock?

QUOTE(wodenus @ Sep 14 2015, 02:27 PM) For the simple reason that they are committed to raising the dividend. They have been raising the dividend for 40 years, there will surely come a time when despite the withholding you will eventually make more than FD here. So, you accept 2.xx% of dividend as good investment because they have been paying shareholders for 40 years. Even if they pay less than FD rates ? Then why do you insist KLCI companies to pay more than FD rates and insist they last forever ? Double standard ? Or Just because KLCI companies are young, and without century old history to boast about ? You have to set your comparison parameters on a level playing field to assess which is a better option. Otherwise you are biased I am actually disappointed with your suggested US stock. Only 2.xx% yield. You can get Australian government bonds for that return. Guarantee you forever without headache

QUOTE(Pink Spider @ Sep 14 2015, 02:46 PM) And...been increasing for past 40 years is no guarantee that they will continue doing so for the next 40 years  Ya, there are dozens of very famous with decades of history US companies bankrupt. Many in the last 10 years. I think some form of inferior complex plays a role here. While kuai loh's century old company giving miserable 2+% is considered good, he expect KLCI companies to give him higher than FD rates AND last forever I can't brain

QUOTE(CyanT @ Sep 18 2015, 08:37 AM) Isn't it weird that the market closed lower after the rate is maintained? What does that imply? Economy not strong. China still a threat. Oil price subdue. US$ too strong On hindsight, analyst like me can give 101 reasons.....

QUOTE(MohdPuskas @ Sep 23 2015, 08:24 AM) You guys go to the AGM as shareholder ?  What company ? Syiok or not Usually meeting will be over in just 5 minutes. Everything is staged to get the resolutions passed asap. Unless there is some issues or EGM held together then maybe longer. Attendants usually are aunties and unkers who attend for the food. Some even bring containers to tapao back
