elf wow.U order ur gege vic down.Pull him by the ear?Just joking. S$100k?----If u have S$100k worth of cash ,u will roughly be able to borrow another S$350 to S$400k worth of good grade shares like STE,SPC and EK. Interest rate is 6% in spore.So for loan of S$400k u need to pay interest of about S$24k a year. But at the same time,S$400k of SPC shares will roughly yield u S$28k woth of divvy. cheers |

aiyah, not nece won't see us lah. it all depends. i'll try to make it for sure. and i'll order gege victorian down too. muah ahahaaa. then you two can educate me on margin. what is the % you have to pay on a loan, anyway? say the figure is 100k, what's the leverage and interests on that? (or pick any other figure; i took 100k for easier calculation. is 10k easier? or is there a dif interest for dif amounts?) anyway, no point thinking so far ahead to aug. life's in the here and now, so enjoy! (i'd put my signature emoticon, but i'm damn scared if i click on it, the page will freeze yet again....argh). |

wow! my jaws really drop. very fascinating ! my deepest admiration and respectful salutes to FA ' Supermen and Superwomen ' looks like one has to pour and comb through massive amounts of information : not only read annual reports , but also gather plenty of 'outside data' , deduce in between lines and do a lot of legwork. seems like you also need to have plently of reliable contacts to give u timely useful information. sheer hard work ! wow ! very fascinating ! no wonder top notch analysts in banks and financial instituions get paid millions of dollars! if we are to follow victorian's methology, we even have to do "on-site" inspection to get the feel of the ground first hand : the management, business environment, competition , effects of government rulings and regulations etc. one really must have herculean energy and stamina to through all these. no wonder warren buffet travels in helicopters. i suppose all these hard work rewards handsomely , being the early birds. wow ! reading elfinchilde and victorian's postings on FA and going through sentence by sentence engages my brain on over-drive. i could almost feel the heat on my head ! i could almost hear the screeching and smell burnt rubber tyres ! hahaha ! hope fumes does not come out of my both my ears ! hahaha ! its our great fortune that victorian and elfinchilde are sharing their thought processes ... and giving us a glimpse into the fascinating world of stock market . wonder if there is a simpler way to get started with FA . i suppose once we get into the motion things might get a bit easier. anyway, once again : my deepest admiration to FA exponents ! clap ! clap ! clap ! ( ... whenever i click on the emoticons , the page crashes ..wonder why ? ) |

zhirong, your account got debited at the time when you submit your application either via internet banking or ATM. The $$ will be safekept by the bank till the balloting result is announced. If you are successful, you don't get any refund. If you see full refund, then bad news i.e. you get none. However, sometimes they do refund you part of your original $$ (e.g. you applied for 2 lots but they are giving you 1 lot). In that case, high chance you get it although not 100%. That's becos you might only be on the reservation list. Unless you subscribe 100lots and above, most of the time you get only 1 lot. For the recent foreland ipo, they were quite kind to allot 4lots to successful applicants. For a 20+cents share, if you get only 1lots, ($200+). That's really peanuts even if the shares go up by 100% (ok, really kopi looi of $200). That's why it is kind of them to give 4 lots. It depends, I apply to those that I think is worth the while. Actually not much effort anyway becos I apply only to those that allow application via internet. Wish you luck in your foray to ipos. Pure chance and luck. |

Sorry I am still new abt IPO. If lucky get the shares, when is the exact date to pay for them? E.g China Yuanbao IPO closing date on 7 May. Start trading on 9 May. Is it pay on 9 May which is the first day of trading or 14 May? If It is over subscribe, I understand it will be subject to balloting but will u still get the full share amt or a percentage of it? Can anyone advise? |
