Epic Streak : Financial Freedom Runs to FOUR YEARS! [1 Jul till 31 Jul 2024]

 #47 IFCA MSC is sold, 2 days from its eventual peaking at 93c, for a hat3ricking round to finally exit at 81.5c on 1st July, handing the baton back to #8 Naim for a 19th sale at 8-year highs of $1.54 to perpetuate the burgeoning record. #51 Kuchai then took over for a 9th sale on the 3rd while #66 Eksons came in for a 2nd sale at 30-month peaks to secure 973 consecutive days on Independence Day in the US. #35 Kim Lun then closed out the week with a 2nd paring at $1.31 on the 5th:

#67 Glomac comes in for a 2nd sale at close to its eventual peak of 46.5c on Tuesday 9th July after the market holiday on the 8th, with #53 SKP Resources then taking for with its own 2nd sale on the 10th at $1.27. New #73 PeterLabs scores for the first time since June & August 2014 for a 15% return in mere weeks after bagging its dividend. New #74 [#41 in '23] & stockbroker Kenanga then performs a duet with #67 Glomac with sales at $1.19 & 45.5c respectively to reach 978 days consecutively on Friday the 12th:

Glomac then goes solo on Monday the 15th for a quartet of rounds before 3-year-repeater Cahya Mata S'wak features alone on the 16th with a prescient sale one tick from its year high of $1.50. #35 Kim Lun gets its hat3rick with the price soaring further, pared at $1.64 on the 17th while #65 MUI Properties tag teams with Japanese drug outfit Mochida Pharmaceutical, the new 76th scorer to inject life into the 982nd successive day in the marathon on the 18th, ceding the stage to #24 Hexza for its own hat3rick to close the week on the 19th.

MUI Properties then cements its own hat3rick after Hexza's on Monday 22nd July, with #8 Naim taking over on the 23rd for a twentieth round sale at $1.57-58, before pairing up with #24 Hexza with 21st rounds & 4th rounds at $1.64-66 & $1.08 respectively on the 24th, the former just 2 ticks away from its eventual 2024 peak!  MUI Properties returns for a duet with new 77th scalp Jasa Kita on the 25th, the latter having already paid out a 6.8% return in a large dividend. Jasa Kita then changes partners & tag teams with Hexza's 5th paring instead on the 26th to reach 988 days consecutively on the 26th, before going solo on Monday the 29th & wresting the honour of arriving at the 4-full-year milestone of the stock income marathon!  The last day of July featured a reprise of the MUI Properties/Jasa Kita duet as they continued to be pared down a 5th & 4th time respectively:

Ten straight days to go to reach a most gratifying unbroken chain of a MILLENNIUM of  stock trading gains! 

Epic Streak : Some Prominent Foreign Winners [3 Jun till 30 Jun 2024]

 June 3rd, a Monday, opens with another win, & complete exit, of #37 General Electric's 3rd & final free 'gift' spinoff, GE Vernova at under $178, ceding the honours on the 4th to new #58 & repeat winner YTL Power Int'l, partially sold at almost five times the cost of long-held shares[$4.955 vs $3.11 as @ the time of writing]. A duo of three-year repeat winner Kuala Lumpur Kepong[KLK],#59, & first-time-since-1999 scorer & new #60 Pintaras Jaya took up the slack on the 5th, before passing the reins to fresh #61 Malakoff on the 6th for an escape from shares held since 2018. New scorer #62 KKB Engineering then mounted the saddle for a 22% gain on shares held for over 2 years on the 7th to reach 955 days consecutively:

On Monday 10th June, I made another working trip to KL  & chose to dispose of  all my remaining original & dividend shares in #114 of '23 Salcon at just under 40c that day, then sold more of my margin holdings in #51 Kuchai a 6th time on the 11th at $2.16.  #47 IFCA MSC, which had surged over 50% since the first sale, was hived by me on my smartphone while waiting for an order at a Saudi Burger outlet in Sungei Wang on the 12th at close to 70c. On the morning of the day of my return train journey on the 13th, new #64 Petron M'sia featured for the 3rd year consecutively with a sale of half my re-acquired shares on the day before it went ex-dividend for $5.14 up to $5.19 , earning slightly more than the dividend that would have accrued from the sold shares. MUI Properties became the 65th scorer on Friday the 14th with an impatient too-early paring for a 5% return to clinch 960 days in a row:

After the Hari Raya Haji holiday on the 17th, the rare trio of new #66 Eksons, bought just a few days ago at 57c & sold for 58.6c,  #67 Glomac, a first time ever scorer, perpetuated the run in tandem with a 7th sale of  #51 Kuchai. Efficient E-Solutions, purchased twice in 2018 & 2023, was three-quarters sold at 27.5-28.5c on the 19th as new #68 & then handed over to a duo of  new #69 Oriental, which matched Petron's 3-consecutive-year feat & was 1/4 sold at $7.14 & Japanese bicycle manufacturer Daido Kogyo, sold for a 23% return on investment, to reach 963 days in a row on the 20th: 

Another duo of #7 YTL Corp & new #71 OSK Ventures Int'l, which joined the 3-consecutive-year club, scored on the 21st, the former a tenth time, elongated the run till the end of the penultimate week of June:

A premature sale of #49, S'porean takeover target & major listed insurer Great Eastern, was compensated for somewhat with a 2nd & final disposal at a touch above predator OCBC's offer of S$25.60 on Monday the 24th & then handed the reins back to both 11-time scorer  YTL Corp & 8-time winner Kuchai to reach 966 days successively on the 25th before YTL repeated as a solo act for a 12th round on the 26th. #8 Naim returned for an 18th serving of gain on the 27th before Japan Power Fastening took center stage on the last trading day of the month for a 55% return on shares bought a year prior & added to weeks before to assume the role of the 72nd winner reaching 969 days in a row:

Can Daiwa Heavy 大和重工 fulfill a bullish pennant target & beyond?

 

Epic Streak : Mickey Mouse Opens Merry May [1 May till 31 May 2024]

 1st of May was a Workers' Day market holiday, yet #38 Walt Disney was booted out of the portfolio in the New York trading session that night at a lower price of US$111.20 to attain 928 days successively, with Naim then sold a 12th time when the local market reopened on the 2nd & #41 BCB sold a 2nd time a third higher than the entry price on Friday the 3rd of May.

Superlon reached the half-century mark on Monday the 6th with a two-thirds exit of shares bought in 2019, giving way to a duo of Eversendai #33 & new 51st winner Kuchai on the 7th. Naim then retook the initiative with a 13th sale at $1.148 on the 8th.

                                     

Eversendai continued to barrel upwards, approaching 60c on the 9th & was sold at 58.8c for a hat3rick, then returned the baton to Kuchai on the 10th after OCBC Bank announced overnight a takeover bid for S'pore's listed insurer Great Eastern, in which the 51st scorer had a significant stake of 3,032,000 shares: they were sold a 2nd time for as low as $1.99 and as high as $2.19! #8 Naim then re-took the reins with a 14th sale from $1.15 to $1.17 on Monday the 13th:

Kuchai was disposed for a 3rd time on the 14th for $2.32, returning the baton to Eversendai on the 15th a day after it soared as high as 78c & was sold a 4th time above 60c:

On the afternoon I made a train trip to Kuala Lumpur to attend Tomei & PPB's shareholder meetings, rubber glove stocks soared incredibly on news of Biden's proposed 50% tariffs on Chinese glove exports & the next morning, I disposed of half of my long-trapped holding in glove bigwig Hartalega from 3.62 to 3.77 to clinch 52 winners, before #53 SKP Resources bagged 940 days consecutively on the 17th with a partial sale for an 8% return after earning one dividend:

Jeweler Tomei, whose shareholder meeting I attended the previous week, featured as new #54 on Monday 20th May while Naim reasserted itself the next day with a 15th sale at a 5-year high of $1.18. The Vesak Day market holiday fell on the 22nd, but the marathon made a forced march with a partial sale in Hong Kong of new #55 Kerry Properties on the 3rd ex-dividend day for a 5% capital gain & 943 days consecutively. Bright Packaging surged 20% unexpectedly on the same day & was pared for a 15% return on shares purchased over the past 3 years as winner #56 on the 23rd. A very rare trio of #16 TAS Offshore, #7 YTL Corp & #8 Naim were disposed again at 89c, $3.88 & $1.17 respectively to wrap up the week on Friday the 24th. 

   Sime Properties, 'stuck' since 2018 but paying many small dividends in the interim, exited on Monday the 27th for the 57th score before handing back to 51st score for a 4th & 5th round sale at $2.19 & $2.17 on the 28th & 29th respectively, further reducing the 2-year margin account outstanding interest & balance.  Gravity defying #19 Tenaga continued to bulldoze the sellers & was sold a 6th time at $13.20 on the penultimate day of the month, leaving it to 17-time winner Naim to close out the month on the 31st with 950 consecutive days attained!
