i don't know where you found out that equity is high-risk. it can be very low risk if you want it that way.

#1: 5% over 3 months is good, but usually ppl talk about annual returns. FD is 2.8-3% a year, high-yield dividend stocks around 5-6%, REITs around 7-8.5%, if you can do 10-15% a year (and outperform the KLCI index), imo that's considered quite an achievement already.

#2: time range? from my understanding and experience so far, there's daytrading, contra trading, short term speculative/fundamental, mid/long term fundamental, growth / dividend play, cum-dividend play, bonus issue/share split play and maybe others. everything can be fully customised to your risk appetite. Profit also up to you.

in a nutshell.. there's no standard definition of good performance in a nice timeframe. it's very subjective.
consolidation of 4 to 1. you're talking about KNM?
the perception is that reducing liquidity (by consolidating shares, and increasing the par value) is a result of reduced interest from shareholders. hence it usually isn't a popular move. there's no effect of share consolidation on the company accounts. just shareholder perception.

BJCorp on 28th June was trading between 1.21 to 1.28. I don't know where you got 1.03 to 1.09 from.

Thanks ya i'm holding some KNM, and consolidation is approaching so wondering how much the impact.

For BJCORP hmm i check the price from the chart history... strange i go check again, thanks

I've got a question regarding warrants.
How do these WA counters work? From what I can tell, they are traded just like normal stocks rite?

Could someone please explain to me the difference between WA/WC and normal stocks?

Yes, they are traded as same.

WA/WC is the same warrant issued by the company, just WC will be indicating the third warrant being issued. WA, WB, WC.
For sure, WA and WC conversion condition is different as well as its expiration date.

WA/WC is different with CW.

CW is call warrant.

from my understanding companies issue warrants to raise money(correct me if i'm wrong).

are there time frames for the warrants and will they expire or always remain traded in the market? what will happen if it expires?

Yes, warrant is a way to raise money.

Yes, warrant does have time frame, generally for ordinary warrant like WA, most are 5 years, can be varied as well.

Once expired, the warrant cease its function and being delisted. An expired warrant is worst than toilet paper, worth nothing. (at least toilet paper got some usage )

haha ok so when it is diluted, the company will pay the holder its worth at that time?

You mean delisted?

No, for ordinary warrant, you need to convert to mothershare before it expired at the exercise price set before.
If not, the warrant just rotten even it worth a lot.

Only CW got cash settlement aka repay you what the warrant worth.

I suppose it is a Redeemable Convertible loan stock

It just means those loan stock are redeemed and company will/need to repay the bond.

You mean delisted?

No, for ordinary warrant, you need to convert to mothershare before it expired at the exercise price set before.
If not, the warrant just rotten even it worth a lot.

You have to check the conversion ratio and the exercise price.
