Re: Philippine Stock Market Investing
Good Day mga ka-Symb..
Just recently got into stock market with the activation of my account with COL financial. As I am planning to invest 5k every month (yun lang kaya ng bulsa ko... hehe), there has been a buzz between these two companies - LRI(LaFarge) and MEG(Megaworld). May I ask for advise from experts here as to which one is better you THINK for the long term?
Based on the news, i've recently read, they are both performing well. As I am not a member of TRC(TrulyrichCLub) yet, but planning to be a member, which do you think would be a better option between the two? (TRC approves accounts for 10 days daw, so medyo matagal bago maging member).
Since MEG offers a boardlot of 1000 and LRI with 100. I cannot diversify my 5k between the two.
Please I need your help mga master....
share ko lang ung nabasa ko from other thread..
~ sorry vacation mode, kakabalik lang . anyway ngayon ko lang ulit nakita ang psei ulit . . .
~@xtianzy any gusto mo idiscuss bro?
~ whats my take on the index?
ans. "its a cycle of life" . sa balita lagi sinasabi dahil 1. mahina ang piso 2. unemployment is up 3. laggard ang US economy . . . paulit ulit ko lang po na sinasabi na talaga ang month of June ay profit taking month. lahat talaga nagbebenta mga investor lalo na mga for-en-jer our index had dropped 1000 pts in the past few weeks. sa pag aanalyze ko ng charts nya, marami nga talaga siya binutas na support level, and malayo nga ang retracement niya ulit . . . for me this week, i can smell that the index can still go down to 5.9s level before stabilizing and by august hahataw na ulit tayo hangang 8s level . . .
inuulit ko " NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE ECONOMY " Tinatakot lang kayo.
bubuhos din ang ginhawa sa August . . . kung madami na kayo paper loss ngayon let it be. patibayan ng dibdib, at wag bibitaw sa T-back ni vice ganda.
~ sure suscribe lang keo, book mark niyu din
~ first topic that i want to discuss is . . .
What stocks to invest in . . .
(catfood's grading system)
categories:
a. actual price / no. of stocks
b. product
c. quarterly income in past 3 quarters
d. dividend play
e. p/e
f. activeness of stock
g. blue chip or not
scoring system:
0 = negative / no /
1 = positive / yes /
Ask yourself :
a. actual price - does my budget fit the bill? and how many no. of stocks can i buy?
most of us has a tight budget, being efficient in investing is a must.
e.g - (this example it doesnt reflect other factors involved in investing) if i have 10,000 piso money to invest, shall i invest it in stocks that are worth 1,000 piso or those that are worth 1 piso or 10 piso? which is better
My answer : i categorize the price range of stocks in 3 levels
Level 3 = 500 piso or more
Level 2 = 40 piso to 499 piso
level 1 = 39 piso less
* Some stocks has a minimum number stocks that you can buy, so better check it if it falls under your money
some might argue on this but i would say " the more stocks you have, the more control you have in your investments " so if you have 10,000 piso to invest choose the security that gives you more units . . .
* I make it my rule when i was starting : My Minimums back then
that if my chosen stock is level 1 - i make sure that i have no less than 100,000 units in my portfolio
level 2 = my minimum of 1,000 units
level 3 = my minimum of 1,000 units also
ok back to my grading system again . . .
so if your money falls "right" on the price of the stock
i score it "1" if not "0"
b. product - ask what type of commodity, service. does this stock do? do they make condos, etc, do they mine GOLD, SILVER, COPPER? Holding company? etc.
* do research on their latest achievements. are they on a boom or on a decline . . . are there new projects? be updated on the news !
* on M-O companys it is important that you know their product because on a daily basis the price of their product goes up and down all the time, with this additional data you can guage what will happen to the stock . . . good example is
stock: LC - lepanto <----- mines copper last month the global price of copper grew almost 25% and the effect is in 2 days this stock grew almost 50%
same with Oil companies - PCOR, PNX etc. if their is a oil price hike, their stocks shoot up
~ back to my grading system so this is a daily category if it is in a boom grade it "1" if not "0"
c. quarterly income - invest only on stocks with positive income for the last 3 quarters . . .
if it is a yes grade "1" if not "0"
d. dividend - does this company give dividend? is it quarterly or annually? is the ex-date given? how much . . .
* this is a bonus category for me, it depends on you if you want to include it in your grading system . . .
if yes = "1" if no = "0"
e. p/e - ok this is hard to explain, so i'll make it easy on some of you
example you have
p/e
BDO = 15
BPI = 42
MBT = 31
which of the 3 should i invest? which is much better? (in terms of p/e)
BDO is better why? easy term which ever is closest to zero is better to invest in . . . sometimes stocks are overbought and sold, and sometimes they have a big number of unit of stocks under them. . . . this makes the p/e larger . . . and this makes the growth slower . . . "in most cases" . . . my friend the fundamentalist will say your wrong . . . oh well
* so compare your chosen stocks with others on the group
score best in the group "1" yes "0" no
f. activeness of stock - does it trade everyday - more days = more opportunities to go up. done idle
if yes "1" no "0"
g. blue chips - "1" yes "0" no
get the total score
and choose the best in the group COMPARE
* NOTE THIS GRADING SYSTEM I MADE IS NOT INTEDED FOR YOU TO INVEST IN THE STOCK AT ONCE . . . MONEY MAKING IS A MULTIFACTORIAL PHENOMENON . . . So stop and think

sana makatulong
pwede ka mag-exit sa market anytime. Yung 10yrs na example nila ay long term strategy usually sa bluechips nila nilalagay. Iba naman pag trader ka, ito yung mga nakatutok sa market, tsupitero ang tawag sa kanila. Yung mga nagaabang naman sa gabi lalo na sa kalsada, yun yung mga tsupaero, dun instant gain 
sir malaking tulong!
