Another day of selling down for this counter. I think the selling down is overly done and could be due to the Flooding at Danshui Plant caused by Super Typhoon Mangkhut.

The company says All employees are safe from the hazards caused by the Typhoon, and the majority of the production facilities at Danshui Plant are not affected. However, the flash flood has caused power outages and this has resulted in temporary work stoppages at the Danshui Plant.


The management is currently trying to assess the full impact of the flooding on its production lines at its Danshui Plant and plans to resume production expeditiously.

The Group's insurance company has been notified and will be assessing the claim and damages in due course.


 I think this is an unwarranted event and most probably a once-off case !

 At the current price of 63 cents, yield is pretty solid at 7.5% base on yearly dividend of 4.73 cents (HK$0.27) .

 PE of 7.5x. I think Net cash per share 30.5 cents ..Zero debts. NAV 45.3 cents.


From TA point of view, it is on a Downtrend mode patterns, looks rather bearish!

Today the volume bar seems to be high and could be an indication that Supply could be exhausted!

Short term wise, likely to see a throw-back reaction to take it higher to cover the Gap at 66 cents. Resistance is at 70/73 cents .


Immediate Support is at 63 cents . Next support is at 60 cents .

I think fair value is about $1.10. Let say we factor in another 20% discount that will be giving us a value of 88 cents .

Not a call to buy or sell.

Simple and Good Investing Idea

I think good investing does not require too many fanciful ideas and strategies. Just one simple no-brainer strategy that can work effectively through time and allow us to sit back and relax to enjoyr the reward of the investment that is working effortlessly to achieve our investment goal of getting 8-10% gain( passive income).


This simple strategy is to invest in a low cost ETF( Exchange Traded Fund)  such as the STI ETF (ES3.SI) or NIKKO AM STI ETF(G3B.SI) 


This method of operation is to buy into STI ETF whenever it is in an oversold condition and to sell off and take profits whenever it is in an overbought condition. 
For example, one may use the  indicator such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to determine overbought ( above 70 ) or oversold condition( below 30).

One may plan to buy and selling of units in several batches whenever in oversold or overbought conditions in order to get the best average price.


For example you may plan to buy in at different interval or whenever the Oversold situation happen .

In any one year, there will be three to four such window opportunities of overbought or oversold conditions to operate by buying or selling units of the ETF. At the same time, we can also kept some units always to receive dividend income and for their long term growth in price appreciation.

With discipline and patience , one should be able to get good average returns per year in excess of certain % by this one simple strategy of investing in one single ETF .I think This simple one strategy is safe and allow one to sleep soundly at night without worry of negative news affecting individual stocks in one's portfolio which could crash the share price of the particular stock the next day. This is because even if one or two of the component stocks in STI ETF of blue chips should collapse in share prices, there will be 28 others to diversify away the risk of the entire portfolio collapsing at anytime.

As for younger folks who just started out working and does not have enough cashflows and savings , one may start to spread out the different batch of buying or applying the Dollar-cost-averaging method by investing $1000 at 6-8 different batches that would be able to achieve  lower average costs per unit. 

the example are as follows:-


1. When the index price is $2.00, your $1000 will be able to buy 500 shares.
2. When the index price is $2.50, your $1000 will be able to buy 400 shares
3. When the index price is $2.90, your $1000 will be able to buy 344 shares
4. When the index price is $1.66, your $1000 will be able to buy 625 shares
5. When the index price is $3.00, your $1000 will be able to buy 333 shares
6. When the index price is $3.20, your $1000 will be able to buy 312 shares
7. When the index price is $3.50, your $1000 will be able to buy 285 shares

Total = $7000 / 2799 shares = $ 2.50 average cost per unit.

By using this method, you will be able to make a profit once the stock market rises above this low average price.


Just sharing.
