Don't think they will declare dividend like that this year...

Even if they pay dividends, you'll still have to ask, where did they get the money to pay the dividends?

Some companies can actually neck deep with debts, with negative cash flow, and still they have the money to pay dividends... They're heavily financed by the banks, or money from new issue of shares and so on.

Ya.. Zelan strong support is at 0.79 - 0.80. Lionind strong support around 0.65 -0.66.

I aim for both Zelan and Lionind. These 2 counters good for swing trade.. buy at low price den sell for profit.
I bought Zelan at 0.795 and lionind at 0.66.

You bought any Zelan shares today when drop?

neither me. if still give 4 sens, KNM would become dividend top pick jor

better becareful bcos alot of hidden news/info of alot companies whether in debt or have serious problems, it would hide from outside world/market until cannot tahan then only disclose. insider know but investor dont know.they know upfront and we dont know. invest blindly will be severely damage later on

better find out more indept first before going in to invest in the companies.

KLK 1Q result out, EPS drop to 6 sen from 27 sen. Cash generation capability remain very strong.

I bought LIONIND at 0.665 just before CNY. Want to unload it yesterday if it rallied further but it went south!

I'm glad I unload my SIME.... made 15% profit....

European markets open RED.

DJIA future still green: 7,548.00 +41.00

At what price you bought SIME ?

Alchoholic still there. But market share has been eroded by Guiness Tiger.

It is a bad bad quarterly result, especially during 4th Q whereby CNY approaching should register brisk sales and good profit, instead a poor poor 4th Q result.

It cannnot sustain anymore special dividend without earn enough (EPS).

Another problem is smuggling activities that eroded the alcoholic sales.

ESSO? don't know meh?
Refiner for Exxon Mobil in Malaysia.

I think the profit margin for breweries has eroded since 1 year ago due to intense competition. Last time 1 carton usually about $110-130,
nowadays since before Chinese New year till now $88-100
I'm quite interested to buy Carlsberg stock but still feel unsure.

This post has been edited by sharesa: Feb 18 2009, 09:01 PM

so i expect Carlsberg share price to plunge on tomolo!

it has been surging up from 3.6x to 3.80 for no reason!!!

with poor quarterly report + no special dividend, its price must go down!!!

Since late 2-3 years Carlsberg result is deteoriating while Guiness still hold on its profit quite strongly, it just sum up the market share issue.

Infact Guiness is giving out around 40-46 cents pa (sustainable with EPS), while Carlsberg is struggling to give generous dividend (while some special dividend are given based on accumulated profit/cash not from sustaintable EPS).

Margin is squeezed since 3-4 years ago when gov raised the alcoholic tax.
