Deal Fellow Investor,
Where from here?
Yesterday well over 2300 investors attended The Phillip Capital
Investment Conference at the Istana Hotel KL. The ball room was a full house
and hungry investors came to discover opportunity. There were many.
17 prominent speakers gave us their take on what to expect moving
forward.
Charts were presented showing slowing growth worldwide, high debt to GDP
in almost every country, interest rates worldwide approaching zero and even
negative, and increasing deflation. Brixit was discussed and its effects on
Malaysia.
Brixit should have little effect on Malaysia as the UK is not a major
trading partner. If there is a Brixit that should hit the pound and it would be
cheaper to buy a house in the UK or fund your children’s UK education. A few
Malaysian property companies such as S P Setia would suffer as well as Genting
and YTL Power. We hold none of these for clients.
The general mood of the speakers was caution. Some recommended
buying high dividend shares in established companies. With growth slowing we
should focus on stable income to at least beat inflation. Reits were mentioned
as well as high quality consumer companies.
One speaker mentioned that with the onslaught of negative news, increased
foreign fund selling, gloom and doom and low participation by the retail crowd
the market could turnaround if the news flow turns a bit positive. Another
words wait for less bad but do not wait for all the news to turn positive as
that would be too late.
Mr Ang Kok Heng, CIO of Phillip Capital spoke about known unknowns or
potential black swans that can devastate a portfolio. He said we can
never know all the details of a company and to protect ourselves we must
diversify and look for deeply undervalued shares. Anything can happen at any
time.
Another way to minimize risk in this atmosphere is buy deeply undervalued
companies.
He shared some examples of 2 deeply undervalued companies driven to
attractive valuations that offer relatively low risk. Both were trading at less
than ½ of book value. They are possible privatization candidates which
could result in windfall profits.
He also mentioned that never in the history of the KLSE which opened for
trading in 1973 has there ever been more than 2 down years. Currentlythe
KLSE has been down for 2 years so statistically since 2014 and 2015 were
down years the odds favor that 2016 will be a recovery year.
Investing is a probability game and the best we can ever do is make sure
the odds are in our favor before we risk our capital.
Invest well and grow your wealth,
Bill
