Time dotCom needs more TIME?

After 2 days of suspension and an announcement, Time dotCom (TdC) slides 18% to RM0.63 today. In conjunction with that, TIME - the mother of TdC - also join-in to close down 16% to RM0.435.

Actually, what is so bad about the announcement? Prior to the outcome, both counters jump up in anticipating of good news. Anyway, it looks like investors are jumping blindly before this.

The announcement by TdC:-
  • Buy Global Transit Communications (GTC) for RM106 million, the wholesale Internet service and back haul provider
  • Buy Global Transit Ltd (GTL) for RM105 million, which owns 10% of trans-Pacific submarine cable
  • Buy AIMS Group for RM128 million, owner of network-neutral data centers in the region
  • Capital repayment of 2 sens-a-share
To finance the acquisitions, TdC will pay RM90.9mil cash and the rest in new shares. The deal was expected to enhance TdC's earnings straight away, transforming TdC into a regional telco player, and over-taking other competitors.

Why still falls after such a good news?
No one knows the main reason behind. And, Finance Malaysia makes the first comment regarding this, and the main reason was - No More Story. In other words, all the good news have been factor-in before the announcement, and as such, No More Story will be bad news for this company. The last investor who jump in will be the hardest hit.

It was not surprise, because the deals involved so many parties and people, the so called "insider news" would have leaked out much early. Investors keeps on pouring in their hot money to participate, but, the smart one has started to cash out.


By looking at the deal carefully, there was new shares being placed out.
The question is at what price?
And, how to determined the price?

Ah...ha... According to it, the price of new TdC shares that will be issued to the vendors of the companies is 72.3 sen each, based on the 5-days volume-weighted average market price of TdC shares. You get what I mean? If the shares shot up and traded actively before the announcement, the price of new TdC share that will be issued would become higher.

Good Luck on your next target...

"You Can Keep Your Existing Health Insurance"

I wondered about this statement at the time Obama made it.  Clearly, by changing all the rules of health care insurance and mandating conformity, it was unlikely that the vast majority of Americans would not find themselves forced by 'The Affordable Care Act' to have to deal with a completely different health insurance plan and completely different set of health care providers. I now understand what Obama meant.   He was speaking to his immediate family and (politician) friends.  They are exempt from the "Affordable Care Act."  Clearly what he meant to say was: "if you are exempt from Obamacare, like me and my family, you can keep your existing health insurance."  He never meant to mislead.

Why Gold and Silver? Why Online Store?

Are you first time gold and silver buyers? Why don't you invest in these popular metals? If you did so, you have had a wonderful investing experience after 2008 global financial crisis. But, do you really understand these metals? Were they really precious (especially now)? Traditionally, gold and silver were one form of exchange. Because of the invention of fiat money, they were being turned into some short of "back-up" currency , in case our fiat money system go burst. It's natural when things go wrong, gold and silver tends to appreciate in value. In other words, people hold precious metals to preserve the value of their assets. 3 Reasons Why Gold and Silver... Still hot in demand , especially by emerging affluent Chinese. Traditionally, Chinese loves gold. They bought it for events such as new born baby, new year, wedding and even funeral ceremony. Strengthening USD ??? Yes. It's a correct reason also. Why? Because of news that US going to stop QE3, USD is str...

Things We Now Know

The poor are losing ground in the new Obama world.  The facts are showing up even in the halls of collectivist extremes like the New York Times.  The rich are getting richer and poor are being locked in place.  Big government is throttling the economy and the hopes and dreams of lower and middle class Americans. Today's Wall Street Journal's article by Simon Constable lays out some of the simple and obvious facts of the Obama era: "The richest 20% of households account for 38% of spending, according to government data for 2011, the latest available.  Compare that with 2003 when the top earners spent 26% of the total."  The article goes on to say..."it could get even worse."  It will. Who really benefits when the regulators strangle the banks?  Do banks really need to get much more conservative in their lending practices?  Why does the government know best?  How far can you stretch the FDIC guarantees before American banking is simply a subsid...
