im at huge -25% paper loss... but if i could turn back time, would have dispose it before the dip. im not very sure how it will perform in the next 2-3yrs.

bought this yesterday, this one im planning to keep very long term for dividend

Divd is good (compares to FD). but be aware they changed distribution from quarterly to half yearly. yesterday ex-date should receive by month end. so far not bad i would say. my rough calculation return estimated at slightly below 4.5%
im also hoping they can recover in a shorter time, so jus hold on to it.

Am Investment said fair value of YTLREIT is at 1.26. i guess it is cheap buy now

Retail will take a few years returns to 2019 level and likely to different landscape.

Hotel business is worst in this Pandemic.

good thing is most of their hotels are on master lease. 0 occupancy also still need to pay. not sure in the long run how will it impact the whole reit portfolio.

YTLreit has nothing to do with retail.
It is all about hotels.

Its Malaysia and Japan hotels are under master lease long term, which has some shield impact from the downturn, as long as the leasee can pay up the rental, which can provide stable income.

It is the Australia portfolio that under management contract, which will be impacted greatly due to lockdown there. That's why we see it plunged down from 1.xx to current 0.7x, once the news came out about lockdown there, because income will be affected during this period of time

Hopefully warren buffet's latest move will bring confidence into gold counters especially the likes of muiprop bahvest & bornoil

Come on gold

Oh yes, you are 100% right. Trading should only be a small part of your portfolio. It is time consuming and high risk. I am only trading now because of the glove stocks mania. Once in 10 years or once in a lifetime opportunity. Eventually, we will be eaten by the sharks or crocodiles if we stay too long.

I think we need to diversify across time, assets and country. An example would be:

(1) EPF
(2) ASM, Wawasan 2020 (for non-bumi)
(3) Fixed deposit, advance payment into housing loan, etc.
(4) Unit trusts like FSM One Malaysia or FSM One Singapore.
(5) SSPN (if you have kids for tax exemption)
(6) PRS (for tax exemption again)
(7) Stashaway

The investments which did not work for me were:

(1) PSP lending like Funding Societies, etc (default rate too high)
(2) Gold investment like HelloGold (the spread is too high, no interest payment, etc).

Vanguard ETF is available in FSM One Singapore. I have opened an account in FSM One Singapore but I am stuck there because I have not opened a Singapore bank account yet.

Back on track now. Yes, maybe 10% of your money for trading if you have the time and skill.

You may want to allocate another 20% of your portfolio for stock investment in blue chips or growth stocks (this not trading stocks on a regular basis). Some people like the regular dividend payments. Otherwise, you may just opt out from stock investment and to dump it into unit trusts, etc instead.

Whatever it is, start early and have an emergency fund of 3 to 6 months first before thinking of investment. You don't want the decision of when you should sell your stocks or unit trusts to be determined by when your house roof leaks or when your car breaks down.

Buy some investment books to read. Read, read and read.

My 2 cents worth as usual. Sorry, a bit long winded during the weekend. 

i prepare to get in gold at 12% below current price for hedging.

GOLDETF if bursa, there are XAU/USD gold etc u can also go in.
i cut loss too, but each time i cut i loose only 1% of my total fund.

Our gold etf is kinda risky cos many times the etf  is not very liquid ....
the spreads between the buy and sell can be over 5 bids ....
with such a huge spread, it  can really hurt if ever you need to cash out urgently...

do take into consideration this risk....
look for bank negara gold coin investments.... it's a much better option.... it's googleable ....

I am holding trade plus shariah gold etf via Wahed robo. About 18% gains after more than half a year

gogo muiprop

expecting news from their aus mining counterparts this week

1. Investment Bank
2. Technical Analysis
3. Fundamental Analysis

Trust in muiprop

Finally made it to 0.3 after 0.2x for 2 weeks  Hope more good news coming from Australia then can climb back to 0.4.

Yea at this point can escape with 10% loss is considered a blessing already. But I didn't enter much for muiprop la. The rest stuck at Ruberex 

Both Super and TG just hit insanity levels. +3..... can they reach +4??

And then MuiProp...... record high today.... 0.41 

Set Q to sell at 0.5 lol

tonight see gold price how. if tonight up tomorrow can. but I will sell muiprop regardless up or down tomorrow. Thurs is a holiday and Friday is offload day I foresee muiprop will down.

I see gold can maintain more than 2k by tomorrow. Then better sell, because anything can happen on Thursday when market closed.

I breakeven now already. I set Q at 0.5 see can hit or not. Regardless up or down, I'll throw muiprop tomorrow cause of Thursday holiday and Friday.

Wait, why did u set to sell cheaper than u buy?
