you are too focusing on his blog/write-up, hence diverting all your energy to BASH it. Im not saying he's 100% correct, plus nobody is correct. 100%

nobody can be ultra rich by buying 100 shares of 1 company and hold on to it forever. taking your case, what was PUBLIC Bank pricing prior to 1997? Until now, not even recovered 50% of the value, Imagine u bought at that time.

Bottom line : every1 have their own risk-appetite. Live with it.

in that case, talk untill the cow come home also we ain't finished...
Fullstop. Back to real live. Just forget abt tis arrogant bugger. Nothing concern me at all.
mmmmmm

i'm not sure how much the return is considered good 4 u guys but i got sumthing to share here from StockTube

p/s: in 1967, a unit of PBBANK share is less than RM1 iianm

i was still floating in outerspace in 1967.

If one bought at the highest price in 1997 (close to RM 3), now already profit more than 200%.

DanielW,

I think it is a lot more than that. I bought RM7 about 3 years ago and I had collected about RM2 worth of dividend. As per 1997, I think the stock had split a few times too.

Cherroy would know this.

The price which I quoted is after adjustment due to share splits or bonuses. If one hold the shares bought in 1997 until now, one would have profit already.

Might be silly to ask this questions since the quarterly results just out. What do you guys think about the next quarterly results? It seems like Pbbank has exceed expectation during the 1st half.

It's hard to predict the next quarterly result. I'm not good at it. Usually I use the current 4 quarterly results to calculate my intrinsic value. It works for me! =)

Interesting to see that :-

When PBB fell to around rm 7, the same people talked about World Great Depression, just not long ago. Could PBB do well in such a condition ?

Now at RM 10 , diff judgment again. Now could be W recovery ?

At RM 12, again maybe V recovery ?

Talking is very easy, read enough over the internet would do . Just follow the consensus ( the majority ) , then you would never go wrong , not too far off.

But the fundamentals of PBB stay more or less the same over the past year.

The question is : Are you a fundamentalist in the first place , so to speak ? If you are, seldom see you speak about facts and figures here ? Or you are so certain of PBB that there is no need to read their annual reports ?

I saw people invested in AIG about 3 to 5 years ago, none of them are happy now.

And Investing is about the Future, what's is ahead to look for ? though past dividend records may carry weights.

SKY 1809,

A) I DO NOT CARE about the price level except if it drops below RM 7 again, I will buy more.

B) As per annual report, I watch for NPL level. As long as it stays low, I am fine. If there is substantial change in NPL level, I will re-evaluate my position at PBB.
