In uncertain time – dividend stocks and REITs prevail

The consistent uncertainty will continue and our direction will be dividend stock and nibbling banking, food, transportation, energy and healthcare.

Our top banks purchase based on valuation is Ambank, MBSB Bank (rewarding due to it dividend policy), CLMT REIT, LHI, KOPI, TMCLFE, YTLPOWER, BAUTO

Momentum swing we suggest Gamuda

Dividend and REITs oriented Healthcare, Energy, Transport and Food only focus

Buffet are holding huge cash pile and gold is getting reach USD 3,000.  We are not so smart like them but I think we can follow their foot step.  We will only buy the above categories and hold all banks. 

All new investment this year will put stable dividend as first consideration. In particular for the above categories which may be survival or AI, Automation, Climate change and trade war.

If there is any bluechip in this segment, is an added advantage.

Banks reported reasonable growth of profits and dividend

Starting with Maybank, CIMB, Public Bank, to RHB bank, Affin bank, Hong Leong Bank, Alliance Bank, Ambank and MBSB all reported increase revenues and profits.  Dividend proposed is also pretty good in overall.  Overall, our call to hold or mildly nibbling into Ambank, RHB Bank and now… MBSB.   We will add again upon to orrow market open.

Realignment of targeted stocks of Q1 2025

Changes to disruption of AI, Trump’s policies, Climate change and etc.  We are relooking into our alignment.  We have hold enough about banks.  Our four areas of holding as Healthcare, Energy, Transportation and Food are as below.

Healthcare – TMCLFE, Optimax, Apex Health

Energy – YTLPower

Transportation – AAX, Sime, Capital A, BAuto

Food – Kopi, LHI

We are not disposing any banks at the moment.  We will continue to hold.

AI will disrupt wide scale of industry and lifestyle as human history

The first thing in my mind will be the rich and poor.  There is no middle class, middle upper class, lower class and eventually the 1% will drag far away from the 99%.

The developed countries will have a bigger gap as they have the resources and talents. 

I think technology will still out shine.  But next will be back to the essentials like Food, healthcare, transportation, energy but properties may be a challenge as fallen birthday rate and flexible working style after COVID period.

Is something that cannot be avoid but I also don’t feel good about it. 

We are not in hurry to reposition our portfolio.  But we will keep an eye from today on energy, healthcare, food and transportation from now on.
