They do get affected because there is usually mismatch of tenure between the FDs and the loans. You will get lower margin for a few months.

Ya very strange. Maybe national team in action? Coz new PM met the funds early this week.

Anyway, good to time for me to exit my PBB positions. Will hold Maybank.

Yes, good stock. But the way it has gone up is like there was no interest rate cut n cure for Covid19 has been found.

Swing trader haha. PBB dividend ex date is 11 March, but I feel nowadays better take profit fast fast.

They haven't announced details. But looking at past years, ex date is early May and payment is early June. You must hold by ex date to get dividends. U can sell on ex date n will still get the dividends.

Ya, but remember that stock price doesn't stay still waiting for u. Secondly, on ex date price will drop to adjust for dividends.

At least he dare buy, you just comment only.. 😆

I like to imagine it like an open top barrel, half filled with water. Occasionally someone pours out the water from the barrel, that's the dividends. The water level in the barrel will fall. There is, however, a tap that continues to drip water into the barrel. That's the profits and the water level will go up again. Until someone pours out the water again.

Now the tricky part is that this dripping water is not very consistent one. Sometimea a lot, some time less. This is where investment skill comes in. U buy the barrel based on how u expect the tap will flow.

Looking at US rates, I think BNM will cut another time, probably by May.

Possibly in May. Save some cash.

Below 7 now..

Hehe.. Wrong statement.


Below 8. Too shocked.

Maybank didny issue any Drips last year.

Last was in 2018. 2019 no more. Price gone down too much I think.

The drip program was used to shore up Maybank capital, which will now come in handy for current situation.

Yah.. That's for financial year 2018. So far no drip has been proposed for 2019.

There was already no DRIP for the interim FY19 in September last year. Usually even for interim there is a Drip. So don't think there will be any for final FY19. And final FY19 dividend is 39 sen.

Back then it was a finance company. Malaysia had many banks and Finance companies back then. And there was no PIDM.

Nice

2019, not 2018.

But no, basically there won't be any final dividend. This interim is the final for 2019.

For large PLC AGMs usually thousands will turn up to register n collect goodies n food vouchers, but only a few hundred will stay back to sit in the meeti g itself.

Hsbc dropped nearly 10% today in HK. Not going to announce dividends to presrve capital. Any chance this will happen to Malaysian banks?

Sila bincangkan
