Very good stock
I wanted to buy Hyflux Trust or Cityspring for future retirement portfolio
I chose Citysping at 0.70 cts for 100 lots because I don't trust China related stocks
Did not regret it even if it goes below 0.70 cts

In short, under the current tight credit conditions, having high G will increase the risk of margin calls by the borrowers should credit conditions worsen. Though guideline is 60% or <, and with "Tamasick" backing, investors should still exercise caution when investing their hard earn $...just my 2 cts advice.
for reading regarding gearing ratio, from investopedia
Gearing Ratio
 |
A
general term describing a financial ratio that compares some form of
owner's equity (or capital) to borrowed funds. Gearing is a measure of
financial leverage, demonstrating the degree to which a firm's
activities are funded by owner's funds versus creditor's funds. |

The
higher a company's degree of leverage, the more the company is
considered risky. As for most ratios, an acceptable level is determined
by its comparison to ratios of companies in the same industry. The best
known examples of gearing ratios include the debt-to-equity ratio
(total debt / total equity), times interest earned (EBIT / total
interest), equity ratio (equity / assets), and debt ratio (total debt /
total assets).
A company with high gearing (high leverage) is
more vulnerable to downturns in the business cycle because the
company must continue to service its debt regardless of how bad sales
are. A greater proportion of equity provides a cushion and is seen as a
measure of financial strength. |
Could you explain further by the implications of having a high gearing? Thanks
