SPH   

SPH

SPH used to give more div then ST. But i think SPH is not as def as ST in such state of economy.

 

Haha! Both ST & SPH are among the bluest of blue-chip stocks here trading at ~ 2x nav, consider defensive and resilient at the current environment, have directors buying in from open market recently, cannot have gone insolvent unless during wars......

How to choose? Well, u'll may have to look at its eps and gearing closer for a guide base on current trading price. I'll go for both if I got extra cash, if only one then this one loh.

 

which one offers higher div? they u buy that one lor...

Based on its business, SPH will definately not beneficial from economy recession.

The market is all battles... every day, every week...

And all the small battles along the way make up the whole war...

In such an utterly  unpredictable war against an unpredictable adversary as the market,
to win the war, it is important to win as many battles as possible...

The greatest lesson to learn is to preserve your capital to fight (battle with the market) another day... 

 

No pain no gain. AK hv to stick to my own trading rule, when to cut loss. Likewise, for both OUB(cost 10.30) n DBS(8.00), last few days released them together with SPH. Also reduced weight on BS n SPC.  

Diff trader hv their own trading stretegy, they some learned fr others n d others self experiences.

I also cut lose at 2.7 today. I think it may further drop! May wrong decision.

Market driven loh, even defensive counters also not spared. AK had cleared it at 2.70, with losses.

SPH stock is directionless now.

 

FY07 07/19 = 26 cts.

FY 08 08/19 = 27 cts.

Now, need to wait until mid Mar ds yr for d 1H div loh.

Unfortunately, it just hits AK cut loss pt. Had q to unload, still qing.

Above no call for anything, just AK stretegy, esp at current volatile market sentiment. Some previous methods can't be used again liao. Cheers.
