I wont call my self a sifu. in life if you are looking hard enough youwill get the answers. judging from this you are from investing perspective (fundemental is very important)
if you are certain the business that you holding is fundementally strong you should continue to hold.
what is the criteria of good business ? you must understand just like any profession it take many year to specialise in their craft. heard of law of 10,000 hours.

to cut the granny story short. here is the lead
consistent earning and sales growth and low debt with lot of cash in hand which mean they have some forms of moat.
Current ratio excced 1.5 and Debt /equitty ratio of <0.5
sales and general administartion exceed of 30% of gross profit margin is a no no meaning management taking too much in bonus or salary
what is the outstanding shares look like? are they printing more shares or share buy back. (usually not happen with malaysia stock)
(again if you are investing this is also a probablity strategy it doesnt mean it work all the time it also depend on economic environment if us going war with china those probability most like wont work, like winter your crops just dont grow)

investing you need a one great deal of ingredient that is PAtiently waiting for the right price.
like mr buffet once said like a punch card. if you can only punch 20 time in your lifetime you will think very hard each time before you make those punches and infact you dont need 20 punch to get rich. probably 3-4 punch you will be in a comfort zone.

good luck.

I think you are wise cos might be a case where they are using your bank account for money laundering.

Everyone fall but what did you learn from the fall that is more important and look at the ray dalio principle.

The biggest lesson I have learnt from investing is know when to cut the losses. Always save your bullet for another day.

My money was burnt in buying shares. The current situation in bursa Malaysia is not recommended to buy shares now. I was lost 30~40% from my total investment in market shares. Now what only I can do is hold for it up to 20~30 years.

Fortunately, I am still young. I can save money to invest in others safer investment such like asb and asb2. My trading account now left untouched, the money is still there. I'm still holding some shares of 3 companies but all 3 shares are losing money. So I not really care about it, although I'm losing 5 digits amount. Few years ago, I was starting to build up another investment in ASB and ASB2. So hopefully I will save up more money in the next few years. My target is 6 digits in next 10 years and 7 digits in next 30 years.

For years, bursa is known as a crocodile pond and yet many still attempt to profit from it.

migrate to SGX liao. more choices and transparency.

boss shing3e, does this mean sgx got better returns/ rates as well?

oooooohhhh wait i didn't say that.

there are better returns/rates elsewhere around the world or even in msia but there are some solid factors that makes me consider SGX such as

1. government regulator and authorities credibility like MAS
2. choices of company in SGX, more diversified and covers alot asia pacific, some europe, some US...
3. the forecast of MYR/SGD appreciating
4. etc...

many more. can compare and see see if you like whichever suits your investment appetite.

Up to date.

Tio burn around 6k.

Most from UT.

Lesson learned is that. Anything that move daily. Don't ever lumpsum. And don't be easily emotional breakdown.

Really grateful that I still hold to my principal that don't know anything then don't invest in that. If not I will tio burn more bad in crypto, shares.

UT tio burn because no study about it. Don't know deep just dive in it. Now invest according to region etc etc. More systematic.

I myself quite conservative. At least 60% in ASNB FP. That really save me a lot.

I huat 140% then crash 25% super painful, now only play indexing...

Never burn, never know your limit hehe...

Lesson learned

1. Markiel fooled by randomness
2. Bogleheads indexing
3. Efficient market hypothesis masuk tong sampah.

Why? Coz when crash, your ahpa ahma also can't recognize you. No need talk growth value momentum investing, TA, bla bla bla.

Worst if you signed up for margin.

Ah wong, can we be unemotional? Kahneman say cannot. Thaler juga.

Yes... Averaging down is painful to watch in hindsight....

We human got overconfidence issue... Janji proven correct by keeping our hopes on falling stocks

The aunty uncle keep told me if they only bought public bank in 1997....but got another bank bankrupt that time... What name d?

5k to rm300k. I dont know what it is, but i dont think its money laundering.

Anyway, from my expe4ience. I averaged down into a company with a strong track record. 15 years profit, revenue and equity from 20% cagr every single year. They invested into the wrong sector and took a major hit. I thought they would rebound in 1 or 2 years. It took 3 years and even today they r still working through their issues.

I lost 6 figures at the low. However if i had held it to the rebound i would have made double or triple my money. I was in the red for years. I learned many many lessons. Not just financial lessons.

For me it wasnt any one lesson, i just improved my investing acumen. I made back all my money and quadrupled the original sum.

It’s a public listed company? No clear but you said you recover your principal righty? Even though the company is still working out their issue.

Bro, hownis ur skill now?
In forex or local market?
