Public bank is well-known for its good management, steady growth, high dividend payout, almost everyone knows about it. But yet, how many people has bought it? Simply because it is "too expensive", "too un-spectacular", "too common"?
Yes, for those people who like challenges, it might be a boring waiting game if you buy PBBank. If you make money from it, you have nothing to show off, cause almost all analysts recommended it. If you make money from the so-called high tech stock that even you yourself do not know what business it is in, then you can show off to your friends...hehehe...
Today PBBank hits the historical high of RM8.80. I told my course-mate that how nice if I was to have more stock investment knowledge and financial background by the time I graduated. I could have learnt more during my uni time! TIME is the money, TIME is the king!
Let's see what have happened today if I invested RM9080 in PBBank by the end of 2002:
30 Dec 2002: Bought 4000 units of PBBank at RM2.27
21 Apr 2003: Dividend 0.09 per share, receive total cash 0.09 x 4000 = RM360
8 Jul 2003: Bonus of 1 for 4. Total PBBank increase to 5000 units.
21 Apr 2004: Dividend 0.11 per share, receive total cash 0.11 x 5000 = RM550
26 May 2004: CONSOL OF 2 50SEN INTO RM1. Total PBBank becomes 2500 units.
17 Dec 2004: Dividend 0.40 per share, receive total cash 0.40 x 2500 = RM1000
1 Apr 2005: Dividend 0.50 per share, receive total cash 0.50 x 2500 = RM1250
8 Aug 2005: Dividend 0.20 per share, receive total cash 0.20 x 2500 = RM500
21 Mar 2006: Dividend 0.35 per share, receive total cash 0.35 x 2500 = RM875
3 Oct 2006: Dividend 0.20 per share, receive total cash 0.20 x 2500 = RM500
Total PBBank market value at 23 Jan 2007: 2500 x RM8.80 = RM22000
Total cash dividend received during this 5 years: 360+550+1000+1250+500+875+500 = RM5035
Total value = RM22000 + RM5035 = RM27035
ROI = (27035-9080)/9080 X 100% = 197%!!!!!!!!!!
That means the RM9080 I invested has now become RM27035. What happen if I re-invest the dividend everytime I got it? Surely I will have more than RM30000 now! How incredible!
If only I have invested in Public Bank.
