Things may at last be changing on the SET.

Change may be coming on the SET, with an investor/trader new rotation into highly undervalued alternative highest dividend choices, so long neglected.

The past few days saw a very large sell-off in some of the most previously active -way over traded- big cap stocks here. Which dominated volume for many
months,...

Stock market distortions -can be an unusual opportunity.

On the Thai Stock Exchange mkt. pricing remains as distorted as ever before seen; an unusual rational investor opportunity.

A few very large cap. stocks for long dominate trading and so move and distort the SET index. These spare command undeserving high p/e ratios of...

China vs. USA invest. Its all about comparative values.

A stock in solid finance theory is worth the present value (PV) of all its future dividends. US stocks have a dismal record/habit overall in providing high dividend yields to its shareholders.  Instead its entrenched modus operandi is "aggrandizement" ,at all cost.  As the bigger a company the higher the total compensation...

Some reflections looking back the past 27 years -on Thai stocks and Thaistocks.com

For many years in the past I regularly visited Thai listed companies in person. 

Often with its CEO or CFO. at times touring it factories/facilities, some 160 overall.  I endured regular traffic-congestion, even once in a Taxi traffic accident, and at times missed flights -and yes on rare occasion outright misleading statements by...

The biggest dichotomy on the Thai stock exchange yet just about never pointed out -neither by brokers nor the business press here.  Nor anybody else.

My Investor view/despite all the malaise out there.

My Investor view restated, despite all the malaise out there.

As many can sense here, my own current investor-view is much more tamed than the ultra bears. I believe in gold as an asset class for sure, but by far not only!  My preference/bias is to own a...

Dividends yields divergence.

Dividends matter!

As more and more smaller and mid caps got ignored globally for long -in good part due to ETF investors' obsession, normally the higher the dividend yield on those (smaller companies)... compared to the rest, balances things out.  But alas, in US/EU smaller & mid cap...

Qualitative not Quantitative. Jewels in the rough.

The SET bear market continues as I feared would come -and here posted so already some time ago.  A silver lining is starting to emerge.

Thailand has a newer strict defamation law in place, no doubt many are aware of, which is a real horror where you can't even point...
