Strategy : Simple Investment Model 1-2-3 (SIM-1-2-3)
 
If you want to trade or invest during the turbulence time like now, the suggested investment strategies may help you to make profit. This strategy had been suggested during 2008 and early 2009.


My advise will be : get ready to invest and most of the time we won't be able to know the market can go down to which level. What we can control is our investment strategies. But before we move on to investing, it is good to know the following:

1. Know the amount that set aside for investment.

2. Know the potential risk/losses that you willing to take. (worst case scenerio, at least to hold shares for 3 years and still enjoy good dividend yield paid by the company that you choose to invest)

3. Know the number of counters you ready to invest. (also depend on your investment amount)

4. Know the number of quantity in each counters you ready to invest.

5. Use dollar cost averaging method by applying Simple Investment Method (SIM) 1-2-3

Assumption:
1. If economy continue to deteriorating, the equity market may drop up to 20-35%.
2. Whenever economy recover, individual counter tend to rebound 20-50% from the bottom.
3. Invest in Index counters or suggested fundamentally good company with reasonable dividend yield and low gearing .


Let us divide our investment amount into 6 portions:-(1+2+3=6) and only one counter is selected ( Industrial Commercial Bank of China, stock code 1398.hk listed on Hong Kong Stock Exchange. The illustration for investment strategy for SIM 1-2-3 are as follow:-



Highlight:
1. Use your own strategy which you feel more comfortable instead of trying to guess the right timing to enter market.  
2.The above investment strategy allow you to exist either in 1st investment or 2nd investment whenever there is a technical rebound take place and the portfolio is still making money.

INVEST INDONESIA: BANKING

Indonesia drops plan to lower foreign ownership in banks

PETALING JAYA (Feb 15, 2012): Malaysian banks with stakes in Indonesian financial institutions no longer need to sell down their holdings as Indonesia is reportedly not going ahead with a plan to limit ownership.
According to a Reuters report yesterday, Indonesia's state deposit agency (LPS) said the country will not implement a planned regulation to limit ownership in domestic banks because it does not want to scare away potential foreign investors from the sale of state-owned Bank Mutiara.
An analyst with a local research firm said the move will stimulate interest in banking stocks with Indonesian exposure like Malayan Banking Bhd (Maybank) and CIMB Group Holdings Bhd.
"Right now, it is status quo. It is difficult to pre-empt anything yet," she said.
Analysts had previously expressed concern about the Indonesian move to implement the bank ownership cap as it will hurt the Malaysian banks' earnings.
CIMB climbed 15 sen to 7.31 and Maybank added two sen to RM8.52 yesterday.
The move to drop the controversial plan mooted by the central bank last year should give greater certainty to foreign investors looking to buy banking assets in Indonesia and lead to greater consolidation in the sector.
The plan had thrown a spanner in mergers and acquisitions dealmaking in Indonesia's financial sector and led to worries about the need for existing major shareholders to sell their stake to below 50%.
Currently, Indonesia allows foreign banks to own up to 99% of local banks.

Maybank's Bank Internasional Indonesia (BII), which is one of Indonesia's top 10 banks, has 344 branches, almost the same as Maybank's 386 branches in Malaysia.
Maybank holds a 95% stake in BII, which contributes less than 10% to the group's earnings.
CIMB's Indonesian unit, PT Bank CIMB Niaga Tbk, accounted for about 30% of CIMB Group's pre-tax profit for the first nine months of 2011. CIMB owns a 97% stake in CIMB Niaga.
Both banks had previously said the income from Indonesian operations would continue to grow.
"This is positive for the banks with exposure to Indonesian banks, as well as investors. Previously, investors were trimming their shares as they were worried that ownership cap will impact their future returns and earnings," said an analyst with another broking house.
A banking analyst said the latest development may also re-ignite interest of local financial institutions to buy into Indonesian banks.
According to recent reports, RHB Bank had expressed its intention to acquire an 80% stake in PT Bank Mestika Dharma for RM1.16 billion. And Affin Holdings Bhd may revisit its plan to acquire Indonesia's PT Bank Ina Perdana.

Combs & His Stock Picks

Berkshire Takes Stakes in Visa, Intel as Combs Buys Shares (1) Nov. 14 (Bloomberg) -- Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway Inc. took stakes in CVS Caremark Corp., Intel Corp. and Visa Inc. as investment manager Todd Combs builds his portfolio. Buffett’s firm also had holdings of DirecTV and General Dynamics Corp., the maker of Gulfstream business jets and Abrams tanks, Omaha, Nebraska-based Berkshire said today in a regulatory filing today listing U.S. equity holdings as of Sept. 30. Berkshire reported an increase in its Dollar General Corp. stake and a decline in its holding of Johnson & Johnson. Buffett and Combs drew down Omaha, Nebraska-based Berkshire’s cash hoard in the three months ended Sept. 30 as U.S. stocks headed for their biggest quarterly decline since 2008. Buffett, 81, said earlier today that he bought more than $10 billion of stock in International Business Machines Corp. this year, with most of the purchases made in the third quarter. “American companies look very cheap compared to investment alternatives,” Buffett said today in a CNBC interview. Berkshire invested $23.9 billion in the third quarter as Buffett, the chief executive officer, acquired Lubrizol Corp., took a preferred stake in Bank of America Corp. and broadened the stock portfolio. Buffett has accumulated the biggest stakes in Coca-Cola Co. and Wells Fargo & Co. in his more than four decades running Berkshire. Combs, 40, is assembling a group of stock picks of his own after being hired by Berkshire last year to take smaller stakes than Buffett. Berkshire held 5.66 million shares of CVS Caremark Corp., the largest U.S. provider of prescription drugs, valued at $190 million as of Sept. 30. The 2.29 million-share holding of Visa, the world’s biggest payments network, was valued at about $196 million. The stakes in satellite television provider DirecTV, chipmaker Intel and General Dynamics were all valued at between $170 million and $200 million as of Sept. 30, according to the filing. Shares of each of Berkshire’s new holdings have advanced this quarter.

Bloombeeg News: Buffett & IBM

Buffett Buys IBM Near Peak, Echoing Bet on Coke’s Global Growth Nov. 14 (Bloomberg) -- Berkshire Hathaway Inc.’s Warren Buffett, who spent more than $10 billion on International Business Machines Corp. stock, paid near-record prices for the shares, recalling his winning 1988 investment in Coca-Cola Co. Berkshire began buying IBM shares this year after Buffett read the Armonk, New York-based company’s annual report and saw the firm “through a different lens,” the billionaire told CNBC today in an interview. IBM had doubled in New York trading in the 27 months prior to the Feb. 22 release of its yearly 10-K filing. Coca-Cola had doubled in the four years through the end of 1987, and has risen more than 10-fold since. “I think he looked at Coke through a different lens back in 1988,” said Jeff Matthews, a Berkshire shareholder and author of “Secrets in Plain Sight: Business and Investing Secrets of Warren Buffett.” In IBM, “he sees a business that supports the world’s IT infrastructure and has a lot of room to grow over the next couple decades.” Buffett, 81, acquired IBM shares as the stock’s increase this year prompted at least five analysts to remove their buy recommendations. IBM has risen 28 percent in 2011, the biggest gainer in the 30-company Dow Jones Industrial Average. It is one of six firms in the index whose stock is recommended for purchase by less than half of the research shops that cover it, according to data tracked by Bloomberg. IBM becomes Berkshire’s second-biggest holding behind a stake in Atlanta-based Coca-Cola valued at about $13.5 billion. Buffett, Berkshire’s chairman and chief executive officer, invested about $1 billion in the world’s biggest soft-drink maker by the end of 1989 and made purchases of almost $300 million in 1994. ‘A Behemoth’ “When he started to accumulate the Coca-Cola stock it was like, ‘Boy, this is very unlike Buffett because of the valuation,’” said David Rolfe, chief investment officer of Berkshire investor Wedgewood Partners Inc. IBM “is a behemoth, compared to even where Coke was back then. But it is certainly a company that can grow.” IBM climbed to a record on Oct. 14. Buffett said he acquired most of the stake in the three months ended Sept. 30. IBM has 16 analyst ratings equivalent to hold, compared with 15 buy recommendations. Coca-Cola, which is also in the Dow, had 17 buy ratings compared with 4 hold calls. IBM is focused on services businesses as it enters its 101st year, and the firm has targeted expansion in Brazil, India and China. Coca-Cola, the world’s biggest soft-drink maker, has boosted per-share earnings eightfold since 1989 by buying back stock and expanding in regions including China and the Pacific. IBM’s Strategy Buffett highlighted IBM’s opportunities to expand outside the U.S. and the company’s track record of executing its strategy. The $220 billion company is targeting operating earnings of at least $20 a share by 2015, from a projection of $13.35 for this year. IBM spent more than $100 billion on dividends and buybacks since 2003. “They are thinking about the shareholders,” Buffett said in the televised CNBC interview. “They treat their stock with reverence, which I find is unusual among big companies.” IBM appointed Virginia “Ginni” Rometty last month as its first female CEO. She takes over from Sam Palmisano, who increased earnings by steering the company toward software and services and disposing of some hardware businesses such as PCs. Buffett drew down Berkshire’s cash and invested $23.9 billion in the third quarter. That included $6.9 billion of equities, $5 billion for preferred shares and warrants in Bank of America Corp. and the acquisition of Lubrizol Corp. for about $9 billion. IBM is trading at about 14 times earnings, compared with Coca-Cola’s 18 times, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. “The ability to go out there and find distressed investments becomes a lot more difficult when you got to put $10 billion to work,” said Tom Lewandowski, an analyst with Edward Jones & Co. The IBM investment is “a growth play, it’s an emerging-markets play.” To contact the reporter on this story: Andrew Frye in New York at afrye@bloomberg.net .

Plantation / CPO: Golden Agri Res (E5H.SI)

CPO price move back to RM3000 level. Therefore, we can see plantation counters to move up in tandem with the CPO price movement.

If the CPO prices can maintain at average RM2950 - RM3,050 level, i believe some of the plantation counters still can make huge profit.

Estimate Golden Agri 2011 EPS= SGD 0.08. Therefore, during negative sentiment, GAR  tend to trade at 7X PER and during good sentiment, its share price may trade up to 10X PER. ( Price range from SGD0.56-SGD0.80). Near term target price @ SGD0.72 based on 9X PER.

Good Luck!

China Banking Sector (Part 2): Very Attractive? Cheap Valuation?


( Please refer to Table 1 )
The prices of banking counters from China has been dropping since the peak of Oct 2010 and almost touching March 2009 level. Based on 6-10-2011 prices, most of the banking counters are trading at 5x-7x PER.( cheap valuation when compared to Malaysia banking counters and some other Asia banking counters).

Maybe is time for us to positioning our investment portfolio  in China Banking sector for time horizon of 2 years. Start to accumulate China banks from this level and expecting a investment return of more than 20% p.a
if you hold for time horizon of 2 years.

Assumption is made based on prices rebounded back to 10x PER (reasonable level). During good time,China banking counters tend to trading at the range of 13x-16x PER.
