Hi Tohca,

Thanks for sharing the chart. I think it is the best if we can combine both fundamental + technical analysis before we buy / sell the stock.
Good luck for 2012 and hope we can make more money...

For instance in regards to FD, you would have to put the sum in April 2011 in order to see the interest payment in April 2012. And you have to be 'in' the FD to earn the dividends. Where as for stocks, you don't have to be commited for the entire year. You can be an investor for a day and still be eligible for the dividend. Thus the opportunity costs of FD is higher for people who have funds to invest.

PBBANK declared 48% last year. 1000 units you have is RM480, that's right, nothing to do with the current price, it's about the par value. RM13 per share means you need RM13000 to purchase 1000 units excluding the service charges/stamping/etc.

Quite a lot.

cool, but from my understanding REITs are mostly dependent on property rental yields right? so it's heavily dependent on property market?

Maybe future dividend will be higher? Are you calculating the DY based on last year's payout?

Past 2 years, their interim dividends is about 2.5 to 3.5 sens. Maybe now starting this year will start paying out 4-5 sens dividend?

Their 1st quarter results are very encouraging, higher than any quarter of last year. There is no reason why they won't pay higher dividend if their EPS is growing. I believe Wellcall is 50% dividend policy but recent years they have been paying much higher.

Panasonic Japan has nothing to do with Panamy.
You already get the answer from the quote, whether people prefer or not.
45% market share for Plasma, 20% for LED/LCD, 24% of refrigerator, and a sizeable market share for air-con as well.

How about airasia? Last yr divvy 50% before 30% right?

Sorry noob here, how to calculate the exact divvy by airasia last year?

Guys what your take on the BjToto special dividend payout? 

BjToto up on resuming trade

d) The value of company is associated with its activities, and if the company never pay a dividend, why would you care about what they are doing.

Let's take Genting, it should be categorized under established company,then why they give only peanut dividend......

If Genting start to pay good dividend, i am sure, the price will gone up crazy

correct me if i am wrong ....as  nowadays very hard to find good dividend company

so good examples are BAT, nestle, dutchlady, carlsberg ... most are consumer stock

Apollo Food Holdings Bhd

Fourth-quarter net income more than quadrupled to RM8.7 million (from RM2 million a year earlier, the company said in a stock-exchange filing.

Been Hloding Yilai 5048 for 5 years plus.....

Added on July 18, 2012, 8:25 pmI just check my previous report.... For Yilai

2002 6 cent
2003 12.52 cent
2004 15.12 cent
200510.8 cent
2006 9.44 cent
2007 7.65 cent
2008 6.0 cent
2009 6.0 cent
2010 7.0 cent
2011 7.0 cent

Yeap dividend has gone down, the industry overall is not performing.
Sales revenue drop. But Yilai had the most cash among  them with no debt.
Traditional management... no borowing.
They rank no 3 or 4 i think.

so which are the pick of the pile in 2012?

I hate Vincent Tan counters. Fishy is the best word I can find to describe them.

What to buy

BST shares came under some selling pressure when it  cancelled plans to  list  its Malaysia  NFO  division in Singapore. Nonetheless,  the stock is still  a  BUY,  as  its  appealing  6.6-6.9%  annual  yield  makes  it  the  most attractive dividend play under our gaming coverage. Our DCF-based FV now  stands  at  MYR4.46  (from  MYR5.01)  following  a  revision  in  ourearnings forecasts and WACC assumptions.
