Uhmmmm... my speculation is it may hit 1.24-1.25 but I dunno whether it can go beyond that.. That's why I'm buying some shares(@1.18) and planning to sell when it reaches that price for a quick profit, while keeping some that I bought at cheap price for a long run. It seems like BB is still buying today.. I'm wondering who it is... and why they have such a big appetite to scoop the shares

@Orangejuice01: Yes, there are counters with better dividend return, e.g. REITs.. but they are subject to fluctuation of property & rental price. They are also affected when economy is not doing well. There are also a lot of counters with much better growth potential... But what I'm talking about here is: I want to have a company with steady profit, steady dividend, with some growth potential(just a little will do) Of course I'm not trying to imply that you only invest in this counter.. you have to diversify your investment. But, this is one of the counters for lazy investors. @edchai: Luckily I managed to collect quite cheap when the stock price was beaten down last year. Wanted to buy in several batches as the price was going down(was targeting another buying at 90 cents or below), but only managed to get 1 batch at around 94 cents. --> this one is using my CPF, as I prefer getting better return compared to the current CPF interest rate. A couple of days ago I added another batch at $1.18 because I saw increasing buying activity near resistance.. just for fun only, in case I can get quick profit if price goes up suddenly... hope I can make a bit of hongbao for CNY. But if price is moving sideways, I'm planning to hold longer. |

Completely agree and the company is in the midst of transforming its business model to make it more sustainable. I like the dividend payout every year and worth to consider to collect this stock using your spare cash especially when it price is low. | ||

Postal services cannot justify its ROI, a Sunset outfit that core competency has been out paced by international courier companies with faster speed and better services.... They now do everything but little value add/proposition. Collection agency are soon to be phased out by internet banking/ATM etc... Enjoy low economic rents but limited enterprise spirits. Have branch out to become Retailer of some merchandise but lack range and variety, cannot compete with 7/11 stores with limited openning hours poor services. long cue during peak hours and poor services. Better dividend return somewhere else.... better growth potential somewhere else |

This is one of the stocks to keep for long term... (I'm vested) If you're a passive investor, you can just park the money in Singpost and forget about it... just take a look at it every few years. They are doing well rain or shine... their earning is stable(increasing slowly) whether the economy is doing badly or when other companies are going bankrupt. Just look at their financial report from 2005-now if you don't believe me. The question is: how did they do it? Remember, they are monopolizing postal market in Singapore. They have steady income from postal services and they keep improving their process by investing in advanced machinery to automate the process. Although their core earning is from postal services, they are also diversifying into other areas. It seems that they are planning to expand into logistic business. Just look at their recent acquisitions. So.. they are trying to gain market share outside Singapore. They are quite generous with dividend as well. They steadily give 6.25 cents per share every year. This is good to keep shareholders happy and vested for a long run. They invest the other part of the earnings to expand the business to other areas. I believe in this company and the management from the track record. I'm saying that it's good for passive investors because of the good dividend and the potential growth in the coming years. It's better to put your money in this company rather than leaving your money idle in CPF or in your bank deposit. It has better return compared to CPF & bank deposit. Of course, only invest here with the money you don't plan to touch for a long term (if you plan to buy house or whatever in a short time, don't use that money to invest here). |

[WASHINGTON] The US Postal Service has reported a record annual loss of US$15.9 billion in the past fiscal year, prompting renewed calls for Congress to pass legislation to help. " It's critical that Congress do its part and pass comprehensive legislation before they adjourn this year," postmaster general Patrick Donahoe said in a statement. The agency has reached a US$15 billion borrowing limit. The fiscal year's loss is more than three times the US$5.1 billion loss reported last year, USPS said. The agency has repeatedly complained that its financial woes are partly the result of the funds Congress requires USPS to set aside for future retirees. |

SINGPOST's 2Q 2013 RESULTS OUT. Q2 revenue and net profit rose 9.1% and 7.3% respectively, but underlying net profit flat • Core mail business continues to be under pressure, manifested by a 3% decline in domestic mail volumes • New business and partnerships starting to show results • Expenses growth has slowed but still outstripping revenue growth due to impact of costs pressures from operations, inflation as well as investments in capabilities and resources http://www.singpost.com/download/AboutSingPost/SGXAnnouncement/q2fy1213_newrelease.pdf |

Yes. Agreed that nothing will be spared . However, if you entered at the right price, with the dividend yield of say 8% annually, and you hold for 12.5 years , you would have recovered the capital. Whatever market price in 12.5 years time is the gain. Dividends gain for holding it further (perhaps the company has increase its dividend payout over the years) is as good as passive income for the old age retirement,which can also be handed over to your next of kin. There is a caveat though, the stock need to be a blue chips such as SingPost which will be likely to be around for a long while. Even if it's price drop to the level seen in the last financial crisis , if you hold your breath through, it will come back to its fundamental value. Of course , I am not saying that you cannot buy and sell, if you are really good at technical analysis cum fundamental analysis, you can try to make some profits from the stock prices fluctuation, but for most people out there who need to work , it won't be easy for them to do so. Thus far, it seem to work for me, just stay with good companies and get in at the right price (you have to do your own homework and value the stock via technical and fundamental analysis) and not to be greedy..... |

The trouble with this type of dividend stock is when price goes up its dividend yield drops proportionately prompting people to take profit
