Sunday, January 21st, 2007Most financial advisors will advising against contra trading or trading for the short term. They say that one should buy a fundamentally sound company and hold on to it, through thick and thin. However, I’ll like to show you the other side of the coin.
The problem with buying and holding is that you might not […]
Review: Sunpower
Sunday, January 21st, 2007FUNKY Said
“How about Sunpower….it has been tout as a medium risk high return stock (WILD CARD)…Care to analyse or review….Thanks….. “
If you haven’t noticed, the way I analyse stocks defies the norm. The basic reason is I don’t use P/E ratios, and stocks i invest in need to have earning growths.
I don’t know why sunpower […]
Review: Sino-Env
Sunday, January 21st, 2007Several people has asked me. “Sell”?
Here is what I will say. “NO”
Just in from the news, they are going to announce FY2006 performance on 28 Feb 2006. In my opinion, its going to be an extremely good result. Does that change your mind?
I’m looking at a 12% profit from my buy price. However, when we […]
Quick Lesson: Share Placement, the aftermath
Saturday, January 20th, 2007When I first started studying the stock market, it was my understanding that the more the issued shares, the more diluted the supply and demand effect will be. When my company, Raffles Education announced a 30,000,000 share placement, i was worried. I thought it would dilute the market. Whats more, the EPS will be much […]
Request: China Energy
Saturday, January 20th, 2007Extremely impressive performance since IPO. Offered at $0.83 a share, and currently trading at $1.210.
I did look at this IPO initially, but I decided against applying for it. Yes, you might say I’ve just missed the boat, and i’m stupid. But in my experience and analysis, it could have gone both ways. Here is why.
A […]
Requests: Various Companies
Saturday, January 20th, 2007A-Sonic
No offence, but i took a look at the 2005 annual statement, and i closed it immediately. There is no significant profit growth, and the EPS remained virtually unchanged. The industry has been growing alot but A-Sonic doesn’t seem to be able to capitalise in it. This is the kind of company to keep away […]
Quick Lesson: Contra vs Cash
Saturday, January 20th, 2007There has been some people writing to me, telling me they have lost big money on contra.
Just like to send out a note to all readers that all my recommendations are not contra recommendations, but recommendations for the short (not contra short) to medium term.
And I’ve never had luck with contra. Everytime I do that, […]
Review: Sino-Env
Thursday, January 18th, 2007Sino-Env’s stocks tested the $3.00 mark today. Reached a $3.08 high today. Doesn’t the following statement sound familiar to some of you.
“Sino-Env at $2.58, thats too expensive!”
I understand. Thats the kind of response i get when i tell my friends about this stock. Many will rather buy shares that are less than $0.50, as a […]
Review: Osim
Thursday, January 18th, 2007As requested by one of the readers, here is my take on Osim.
Look at this report.
2005 Annual Report
It looks really good. Turnover, profits and EPS has increased at an impressive rate. The company has been coming up with new products, and Singaporeans will know they are one of the most actively marketed companies here in […]
Quick Lesson: P/E Ratio vs EPS Growth
Wednesday, January 17th, 2007Yesterday I recieved an E-Mail from a reader, asking me to review a particular company, whose P/E Ration is extremely low, but growth is almost not consistant.
I’m aware that most professional research companies use P/E Ratios to pick out undervalued stocks. I find it amazing how these reports put so much emphasis on P/E ratio, […]
