See? Have faith in the harimau. It will never let us (and EPF) down.
39 sen this quarter, that's the highest they ever distributed, even after accounting for all those new units under DRP. Hope this time they do not offer DRP to dilute the EPS and dividend any further la. Just take cash and go happy with it!

Dilution effect because number of shares increase.
If the company cannot maintain or increase ROE, the EPS will drop next quarter.

think got ppl goreng Maybank until dividend day then it will drop again. no logic to it's price hike today.

Maybank still a good buy below 8.

Grab now while you can.

It might be last stop at 7.8 before next level higher-stop.

u guys don't all in, spare some to top up after Q2 and Q3 report

What happen when the price is high? Top up also?

So you look for div?

Love this idea. I usually build up a few months bullet backlog and only enter to ensure I dont miss any great opportunity

When the bull breaks it's back on S&P500/KLCI + glove shenanigans blow over, MB with a relatively low beta is gonna plummet alongside with the market

I reckon when q2 comes out p/e <10, p/b may or may not break 1

Correcto mundo, what I mean by that is that when the market (KLCI/SP500) plummets, MB will plummet alongside, because it has a relatively low beta which indicates that it correlates with the market movements very much.



At this point, it's only systematic risk that can bring down MB back to my buy targets, MB has too little idiosyncratic risks.

PS: Does anyone know how to get rid of the probation status? It's incredibly annoying having to restraint myself to only 3 posts a day. Is there any admin I can contact regarding this?

By relatively low I mean a beta figure of around ~0.8-1, when the market crashes again, MB will inevitably crash alongside, however, the magnitude of the crash may be slightly less. I think you're confused because you thought a low beta meant that it carried extremely low volatility. It's low, but not THAT low.

Hi, i feel you, i am in the exact situation just like you are (from the perspective of MBB holder @8.4 (received 64sen divi) and YTLREIT @1.23), yeah thats just how red my portfolio are right now.

I believe we share the same principal, long term/dividend investing, so I think these are the tough and trying times that will tempt us into panic selling and realized unnecessary losses. Maybank has shown recovery to 8.1x after MCO, and I believe as the backbone of Malaysian economy, it wouldnt be that bad in the medium to long term holding it. If you feel like exiting for more interesting stocks, then I think im not in the position to advice you what is the best way out.

Alternatively, I’ve just started investing in Apple (NASDAQ), not much, just a little bit, but if you have an eye for long term, you can invest in tech giants, or maybe indexes like QQQ, ARKW and ARKK on the US stock market. I think their market makes more sense and the growth of tech giants are more interesting as opposed to the local shares here (expectedly slow for a 3rd world country, so its not a fair comparison).

But hey, thats just my 2 cents, I could be entirely wrong. All I can say is to resist temptations as good as you can (glove stocks are overvalued and may not suit a value investor much more, “tech” counters are essentially manufacturing companies supplying other tech giants only, pharma companies in malaysia at the moment is really speculative at best to me)

For me i just invest majority of my money in Wahed aand Stashaway. Let the experts handle my money. Everyday see my money growing RM50 also syok. Back in March i got paper loss of 22% but had since all recovered with me doing nothing but just continueing to deposit.

Hi, I would love to share with you!

Allow me to share this video, that I've made few days ago, purchasing 2 AAPL share via Maybank global trading platform.

Hopefully no one reports me for promoting my YouTube channel (got reported and warned once before).

The video is 23 min long because I want to bring the real life and RAW experience of buying shares, so feel free to skip to minute 16:49 if you just want to see how i bought them via Maybank platform.

Feel free to ask further if the video doesn't answer your questions.

Cheers and have a great day.

If me, I won't straight away go into AAPL with the limited money to invest. Or just buy 1 AAPL share.

Remain will buy others smaller amount and few stock.

This help me to learn buy/sell and trade multiple enviroment and company.

With all in AAPL, you just sit down and monitor only. Nothing you can do or learn others.

how to buy stocks without paying fees?

don't lose all your money before retirement can liao
if the economy improves and people can pay their loans then yes it may turn out tto be a good stock

if that's your game plan you have to commit to it by doing DCA. there's was a guy here doing DCA for CIMB and Maybank everymonth same amount. if like that then can reduce risk of losing money

I have a question. If we keep on DCA on blue chip dividend stock then we will you sell it for money? It might be a huge amount in future one day and we will unwilling to sell it and procrastinate that tomorrow will go high again and tomorrow high again so sell later later....
