stock market invest trade forex money

Banks are now allowed to invest up to 25% of their paid-up capital in other listed or unlisted companies. Before, they are only allowed up to 5% in selected blue chips. This means that there will be very much more money in the market to buy shares.

 Blue chips have become very blue (expensive). Will the banks start buying blue chips now or will they push them down before they buy. Do they have the muscles to do that?

 What kind of stocks will they be looking into? Baby blue chips, dividend counters, or mesdaq counters? If you can figure that out correctly, the money is there for the picking.

Put on your thinking cap. Beat the banks. If you have a good idea, please comment.

Ben (Manager) 2008-09-04 08:46:57 Interim Dividend 100% Single Tier means that if the face value of the share is 10 sen, a net dividend of 10c for each share will be paid. The dividend is an interim dividend and is tax free because of the single tier taxation. "Think ahead Beat the Banks" was an old post reposted.

Thanks for the prompt reply deVillaine (Registered) 2008-09-04 19:56:52 Thank you sir. As i am a newbie here. Dont mind if I will ask you one more Q. Mind telling me also what it means so..." Share Dividend of 1 treasury share for every 40 existing ordinary shares"? it is about the YTLPOWR.

Ben (Manager) 2008-09-05 16:15:06 YTLPower has announced to give 1 treasury share for every 40 shares you owned. This simply means that you will be given 1 share for very 40 shares you have. Shares bought back by a company can either be sold, cancelled or kept in the company as treasury shares.

? treasury share deVillaine (Registered) 2008-09-05 22:24:50 Thks again. But why it is called "treasury share" as such? I know I should dig through the stock dictionary again...

Btw deVillaine (Registered) 2008-09-05 22:25:36 Ben Sir, you are being very much helpful.....at least for a newbie, this is where the answer comes...! Thanks

Ben (Manager) 2008-09-08 12:26:49 "A rose by any other name is just as sweet," so the saying goes. Don't worry why they are called "treasury shares". Just remember that these shares can be cancelled, sold or distributed as dividends by the management at their discretion.

Cool....! deVillaine (Registered) 2008-09-08 20:05:52 One more problem solved. Thanks sir.
