2) Invested in Sapura energy I guess 3 years back. Estimated Lost around RM40k
but this time I smarter, I cut loss when  down almost 30% from my purchase price.

What's ur average price?

Oil price is in positive uptrend. Hold a bit longer and pray there is a temporary ceasefire between US and China in early Oct.

Damn,  my condolences... at that price I guess u bought this in 2014..before the oil price crash. U do know that it will never go back to that price, ever again? Look for an exit in the coming months.

Well dont feel so bad. 24k can be earned via other means. PNB also in the same boat as u. N I think they would hv lost hundreds of millions if not billion.

How many percent of capital lost? If more than 50% honestly even myself also reluctant to do cut lost because damage is done. Hopefully oil price recover lo, so u won't damaged that badly. If less than that i suggest you cut it and switch to other stocks since many big company also quite cheap at the moment.

Anyway sorry for OT guys.

Got burned when first learn to invest in local stock back in 2005.  Lesson learned, never trust the analyst target price.  You are almost certain to lose money from it.  Its totally unreliable.

Now become wiser, study and make my own decision.  Overall investment is making money.

High oil price is almost always follow by global economic recession.

some analysts in nyc, london, sg, hk, etc yearly income include bonus could be >$1m and many are multi millionaires.
