YZJ - Looking at the chart we can notice that the Supply has more or less exhausted with the indication of the super wide Volume bar reflected in RED. The volume bar has generally turned lower.
The Demand started to come in with the indication of the stronger buying interest accompany with the super wide Volume bar in GREEN . This seems that the ACCUMULATION process is on going.
Once BB has collected with sufficient amount of share, we can witness that the price had started to breakout of the Accumulation zone and rises higher.
ThaiBev - Looks like the similar scenario is happening over at this counter and we would see that the Supply has more or less exhausted with the indication of the super wide Volume bar reflected in RED. The volume bar has generally turned lower.
Hopefully , we can see Demand increases and price can breakout of the Accumulation zone in the near future!

From TA point of view, looks rather a positive sign as we have wintessed the Bullish pin bar being presented on the chart a few days ago after touching the lower portion of the Bollinger Bands and price has bounce off and risen above this Bullish Pin bar, looks rather bullish !
A bullish pin bar is an indication that the Bull is able to take control of the selling down pressure and emerge stronger!
Short term wise, it has been driven into oversold territories and seems that under value is surfacing for this Coffee powders maker + distributor.
Trading at PE less than 12x, I think a reasonable PE of 83 cents could be mase possible .
Not a call to buy or sell.
Pls dyodd.
Half year EPS of US$0.0176 , let's say full year EPS of US$0.0362 = S$0.046. Trading at PE 11.5x base on today closing price of 54 cents, zero debts, I think undervalue is surfacing!
I have added a bit at 55 cents yesterday.
I think a few days ago, Directo has purchased back some share.
I remember Super Group was bring brought over at PE 32x for $1.30 or $1.32 . I think EPS is about 4+ cents.
I think a reasonable PE of 18x that is $0.83 might be available.

Food Empire’s 1H2018 revenue jumps 12.9% with higher gross margin of 39.5%
Increase in revenue and gross profit to US$141.5 million and US$55.9 million respectively driven by sales volume growth in the Group’s key markets
Net profit after tax was flat at US$9.4 million due to higher selling and administrative expenses, higher manpower cost and exchange loss Group to continue its focus on new product launches and market diversification efforts going forward .
Gross profit was US$55.9 million, up US$7.5 million or 15.5% as compared to prior corresponding period. Similarly, gross profit margin improved by 90 bps, from 38.6% in 1H2017 to 39.5% in 1H2018.
In line with the growth in sales, selling and distribution expenses also increased by US$5.0 million or 26.2% from US$19.3 million in 1H2017 to US$24.3 million in 1H2018.
This was mainly attributable to higher advertising and promotion expenses coupled with higher manpower cost.
During the period under review, the Group recorded a foreign exchange loss of US$1.6 million in 1H2018 as compared to a foreign exchange gain of US$1.0 million in 1H2017.
As the Group is economically exposed to different markets, it will be affected by the fluctuation in currencies against the US dollar.
Pursuant to the above, the Group‘s net profit after tax for 1H2018 was flat at US$9.4 million. As at 30 June 2018, the Group’s balance sheet remained healthy with cash and cash equivalents amounting to US$41.8 million.
Commenting on the Group’s results, Mr. Tan Wang Cheow, Executive Chairman of Food Empire said, “The Group continues to perform well with growth registered in our major geographical markets of exposure. Going forward, the Group strives to continue with brand building, new product launches and market diversification efforts so as to derive new avenues for top-line growth and secure better value for shareholders.” Outlook Other than product innovations and ongoing promotional activities directed at enhancing brand equity, expansion of markets into new geographical regions outside that of its core operations remains a key focal area for the Group. Specifically in February 2018, the Group announced plans to open its second Instant Coffee processing facility in Andhra Pradesh, India. This venture, with the support of Enterprise Singapore and the Government of Andhra Pradesh, is slated to complete in 2020. Upon commencement, it should provide the Group with further growth prospects. -

PWLife REITs
Price has come down again after my previous post .
The current price of $2.67 is still trading at historical high.
Yield at current price is 5.00%.
I would likely wait for a min of 5.5% yield that is $2.43 before deciding to accumulate at this level.
Breaking down of $2.64 would likely slide further down towards $2.53 then 2.42 price level.
Not a call to buy or sell.

ParkwayLife Reit - It owns the largest portfolio of strategically-located private hospitals in Singapore comprising Mount Elizabeth Hospital, Gleneagles Hospital and Parkway East Hospital.
In addition, it has 45 assets located in Japan, including one pharmaceutical product distributing and manufacturing facility in Chiba Prefecture as well as 44 high quality nursing home and care facility properties in various prefectures of Japan.
It also owns strata-titled units/lots at Gleneagles Intan Medical Centre Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia.
Looking through their financial nos from 2013 to 2017, we can notice that its Total Revenue is generally rising at a CAGR of 4.3% from 93693m in 2013 to 109,881m in 2017. This is quite consistently increasing for the past 4 years which is quite encouraging/positive.
Total Revenue - is the sum of cash inflows, increase in operating accounts such as receivables and occasionally, unrealized gains generated in the course of Company's Business activities.
Next, we can take a look at the Total Net Income level which has only generated an returns of only 0.81% (CAGR) from 98.279m in 2013 to 101.464m in 2017. The Net Income seems like not growing much. Investor may want to take note of this.
The DPU has since a marginally increase from 0.107 in 2013 to 0.134 in 2017. An increase of 0.06% CAGR. The average yield for the past 4 years is about 0.122. Giving a yield of 4.38%.
This is generally below the 5to5.5 % yield expectation for investing in Reit counter.
NAV of $1.761, P/B is 1.61 times.
The Gearing % is about 40% which can be roughly calculated base on the Total Liabilites 705,881/ 1771,221 Total Assets . It is still within the guide line being set by MAS.. Generally, we would prefer gearing to be around 30-36%.
Ops cash flows seems quite pretty stable generating a Net cash from Ops is within 76 to 80m.
The current price of $2.63 which is trading above it NAV of $1.761 and it is also trading above its fair value of about $2.10.I think it is trading at a premium price level and investor may want to take note of this.
Looking through the Historical chart patterns, we can use it as a reference .
Strong support level is around $2.20 level. The next support level would be $1.80.

CapitaComm Trust investing idea
quote from our value investor : @Jeremyowtaip
For fundamentally good stocks, the more they suffer a fall in price due to worrying macroeconomic environment or temporary challenges specific to the underlying business, the more attractive it is. I have went through so many rounds of these same situations. And the way to operate is just to buy when the price keeps falling lower and lower. The crux is to spread out one's funds into several batches and buy only when price falls by at least 10% to 15% each time from the previous bought in price. No need to side guess where the price is heading next day, next week or next month. As long as price drops to the next buy in level, just buy one more batch. And keep doing this. This will lower one's average cost in the shares while building up one's position at the same time in the same shares of the fundamentally good business.
And if one has holding power and time, the fundamentally good stock will almost 100% of the time recover and make profits for the investor. I have operated in this way and has never made any losses before in any of the stocks I have first picked and entered over the past decade of my investing journey. As such, I can say it is 100% effective as I have never made any losses on any stocks I picked operating in this manner backtested with a decade of investing experience in several stocks I have operated like this. In fact, some of the stocks in my existing portfolio were bought and held over the past decade without selling a single share but just keep buying and accumulating whenever prices fall. And the share price has already gained in terms of good paper profits. One example is CapitaCommercial Trust which I am currently up by about 83% above my average holding price and having a dividend yield on cost of about 10%. I practise a buy-and-hold method and has not sold any single units of it over the past decade.
This buy-and-hold method works for a non-leveraged portfolio because the investor has holding power and does not run into any liquidity problem holding through the fall in share price of the vested stocks. However, for a leveraged portfolio, the investor must exercise careful judgment when using such operation method. It is not that this method of buying and building positions on falling prices cannot work in a leveraged portfolio. But, the investor working on applying leverage must realise that there is always a risk of margin call and he is not able to predict how low his leveraged portfolio value will fall especially in a bear market to trigger margin calls and force closing of his positions.
Therefore, buy-and-hold can work for fundamentally good stocks to make reasonable to good returns for the investor who can accumulate large positions while lowering his average cost in the good stocks capitalising on the occasional opportunities of falling prices. There should not be any fear of falling prices if the buy-and-hold investor is not using leverage since he can continue to buy and hold through falling prices for future recovery in share prices.
However, if using leverage, the investor must protect his leveraged portfolio from extreme price volatility swings which may hit margin calls and force selling. A buy-and-hold strategy can still work for a leveraged portfolio. But the user of leverage must be careful not to over leverage to operate always with a sufficient buffer to protect against margin calls and force closing of positions due to potential of extreme price volatilities especially in a falling bear market.
