Actually Malakof problem was that it had a bad growth story. Malaysia doesn't need any more IPPs n one of the plant concession was ended and not renewed (PD Plant). So this had drag the price down significantly.

But I like its future plans. It's buying Alam Flora, it increased its stake in a big Saudi water production plant (took over from Khazanah), and its going into solar power generation. Waste management, water n renewable are good businessea to be in now. And its owned by Syed Mokhtar, who is close to PM.

Last year Malakof paid 5.6 Sen dividends, of which 2.1 Sen was the interim paid out in September. Current price is 89 Sen, giving a DY of 6.29% if it can maintain the dividends. My TP is RM1. 10 by end of next year..

don't have, need to access through singapore ?

Many IB and brokers here In Malaysia also offer HK and US Markets. It's a bit higher brokerage wise but if u r not so active trader, then it shouldn't be a big deal.

I know Hong Kong and US have Vietnam and Philippines ETFs which u can buy. This will give exposure to the market without having to study individual stocks.

Can buy Vietnam and Philippines ETF from Malaysia?

Not on Bursa Malaysia, but u can buy via Malaysian IB and brokers that offer Hong Kong or US trading.

thanks!

cubalagi are you invested in HK stocks?

Yes. Stocks and ETF.

Is airasia good to buy? its currently at 1.80 and it was hovering around 2.90-3 for the last 2 years. It crashed the last 3 mths.

Will it rise back? good investment?

it didn't crash lah... it declared dividend so the price is adjusted, like all dividend distribution.

How do you guys DCA for stocks? I’m on Rakuten trade, and I’m tempted to just DCA like RM1000 on stocks every week, but the transaction and broker fees is like rm12 each time I buy that little.

What’s the optimum amount I should buy each transaction to minimise the fees lost?

huh? rakuten bukan got min RM8 cash acc kan

I don't DCA for stocks. That's like investing blindly.

I set RMxxx capital to start and then invest. Later add on capital when have more money or receive dividends.

Optimum for Rakuten is RM 9,999. Coz brokerage is RM8 at that value.
