Yes, is true, in fact is > 80% when annualised it..... i got bonus issue of 4:1 and still keeping untill now...
That's why i said it won't be wrong when keeping longterm with this counter....

wow i didnt know that PBBANK used to give out bonus issues

what year was that?

Year 2003.....see link.

wow, another long term PBBANK shareholder!

our friend cherroy owns PBBANK-01 shares for 7 years (or maybe more) already, he bought it dirt cheap, 1.xx only

Ur forecasted FD & SD absolutely rite..recommended dividend payout 80 cts ..increase of net profit after Q4 result out today...there will be moving up trend my guess...

PBBANK owns 4.89% of LPI shares

wow i wish PBBANK & LPI will shoot up together on tomorrow

I'm hoping for FD of 35% & SD of 15% for PBBANK.....

Yup it was Pbbank-O1.

It may be once a life time opportunities, due to financial crisis which is very very severe at that time. To be precise it was 0.88 (I remembered because of this figure also ), but back then it is a 0.50 Par value share, it was being merged intp Rm1 par value shares year ago, so 2 shares become 1 share. It is nothing to shout about, a lot of people suffer significant loss during that year (1998) including me, not the like of subprime plunge in the August, (just a peanut if really want to compare, it is similar to housing stocks in US currently, to be more like to like comparison, housing stocks in US has already dropped more than 50-70% now) but market across even good stocks are dropping more than 50% and more.

It occassionally does give out bonus issue, but personally view bonus issue is not actually a 'bonus', your holding value is still the same, if price doesn't go up. Nothing changes much due to bonus issue alone.
80% of annual return over long term is almost impossible, but 1-3 years average can be, but not 5-10 years time. Long term (decades) of return rate 20% pa and above is considered very good already.

No one can foresee future, it is right that you may sustain a gain of 80% of annual return for now, it may not last when the market crash and you share drop back to where it was B4, then your 80% anuual return turn out to be 0% gain but dividend play an important role here whereby by giving 6% - 8% a year is still very much better then FD. It is true buying this type of counter achieving 20% pa is definitely a possible approach coz the div alone already cover almost half of the goal, if market is good the growth rate for this stock is definitely higher than you expected. At the moment i having 80% pa is calculated base on div, BI + appreciation of stock. Is the biggest gain so far in my portfolio.

You no need to tell me also I can read your mind la

Oh, the Q4 result already out? Still haven't got the time to see the results.
Maybe end of the month I will browse through the results.
These days I am watching closely at my counter to see if I have any chance to jump in.

PBBANK closed at 10.90 today

that is my initial wanted price

never mind, if tomorrow drop again, i'll buy somemore
(looks like it is a good tactic not to buy one whole lot sekali gus, especially during the current uncertain market)

yaya...i'm looking at 10.60! i wanna buy some when dropped further....actually 10.9 is a nice price also hehehehe

queue to buy PBBANK again @ 10.70

what a rememberance day in KLCI!

KLCI 1454.61 -51.10

alot of panic selling, especially call warrants, but PBBANK is just as steady as a rock!



i queued to buy at 10.70
but not sure whether it matches or not
will call back & check out with my remisier again on tomorrow

if not match, i will queue at 10.60 tomorrow

As long as fundamental still intact, nothing to worry especially on fundamental strong stocks. Only worry if Pbbank is going to report lower profit.

Can't blame those CWs holders, as expiry time become nearer and nearer, a lot of CWs are worth nothing. After all, CWs are meant for short term speculative purposes, once goes wrong, then pay the price but once get right enjoy the gain. It is not like holding stocks like Pbbank that you can ignore the market condition and hold it indefinitely.

Or at least until the market crashes, which will be when you need money for emergency surgery lol

(j/k) hope that doesn't happen

latest news,

PBBANK financial report is expecting a good news (atleast a 22% surge, based on the news i heard from FM just now)
the report will be out on next week, not this week
