Stock market still depressed.

Heavy selling for the whole week at local stock market.
Oil & gas, plantation and property sector share prices plunging more than 20% from recent high..
Looks like stocks is entering a bear market with everybody in a panic mode selling their holdings and asking question later..

Liquidate more than RM500k of stocks for last one month..
And the selling has not subsided with KLCI down by 1% at 1768 : 1001 losers dominating 64 gainers in the local KLSE market.....      Happy trading...

KSL continues uptrend. Tambun. PJDev. Glomac.

KSL shares price continues to rise to new high hitting RM3.00 level
Over a month it has appreciated more than 30 % from RM2.30 range
Was accumulating from 2.30 range, 2.60+ level.
Even at 2.80 yesterday I was buying: And contra off at RM3.00 today
Best performer of the month in my portfolio...

Tambun continues to inch up from 2.20 to 2.50 range registering >13 % gain in price
PJ Dev (nta 221) continues to be in the limelight and soon will hit the RM2 mark
Glomac shares price has gone from 1.09 to 1.20: Sold too early, wait for it to come down at 1.07

Been busy doing some property investment and learning some new skills in metal welding and building renovation. Someday I would like to show my competence in welding simple window frames, door frames, steel doors and pet cages, LOL. No major skill, no intent to open a metal foundry (ha ha), just a fascination with how welding fuses two pieces of metal together, that's all...

My property investment is doing well although I must say I invested late after all the easy money has been made by property gurus. Nevertheless I'm pleased with the R.O.I. ranging between 100 to 300% on the capital outlay...

My stocks portfolio also has performed over the time I allowed it to remained virtually unmoved.
Top performer is Tambun purchased at 69c which has yielded a gain of almost 200% at market value of RM2.00
Next is HapSeng bought at RM1.70 now valued at RM3.15 with a gain of 86%
Third on the list is PJ Dev purchased at 98c with a market value of RM1.60 (unrealised profit 60%)
Then there's the 30% beyond gain performers like Scientex, Tomypak, the 20% profit gainers of MHC, Luxchem...
Not forgetting heavyweight blue chips (buy and forget) counters of DIGI, Maxis, Maybank which has regularly given me handsome dividends.. Yawn....

Notice the top three performers are related to the properties sector and that is where I'll be looking for another set of winners. I like Daiman, KSL, Tropicana, WCT, UOADev, TA
There are just too many companies I would like to take a position in but I'm down to 20% cash (80% invested). And I need cash to do short term trade, for daily profits or weekly gain...

I'm beginning to fancy REITS (SunReit, PavReit, CMMT, IGBReit) for their not-so-lofty pricing and their attractive dividend yields > 6%  and I opine that at current pricing, you can buy-and-forget these counters: Appropriate for people with no time to monitor stocks price movement and those who wants better yield than 3% bank FD rate...
For short to mid term, I trade Malton, L&G, TDM, Insas, Pantech, TA, WCT, KSL, TGuan, YTLwb

Bank Of America. Shares price double up.

Share price of BAC continue to rise after the release of US banks' stress test last Thursday. It was hovering at USD 5 last November and got a lot of attention from investors & traders alike who started accumulation from December...
It was selling for USD 8 last week before the release of the bank stress test result and thereafter rose to close at abt USD 9.80
Congratulations to those who bought in early and held todate. Happy investing ...
