I started serious Investing Journey in Jan 2000 to create wealth through long-term investing and short-term trading; but as from April 2013 my Journey in Investing has changed to create Retirement Income for Life till 85 years old in 2041 for two persons over market cycles of Bull and Bear.

Since 2017 after retiring from full-time job as employee; I am moving towards Investing Nirvana - Freehold Investment Income for Life investing strategy where 100% of investment income from portfolio investment is cashed out to support household expenses i.e. not a single cent of re-investing!

It is 57% (2017 to Aug 2022) to the Land of Investing Nirvana - Freehold Income for Life!

SembMarine slumps to 2-month low on weak margins

[SINGAPORE] Marine and offshore engineering company Sembcorp Marine Ltd dipped to a two-month low on concerns over weak operating margins, while the Singapore benchmark index was flat.

Sembcorp Marine shares fell as much as 3.3 per cent to S$4.35, after reporting disappointing operating margin for the third quarter despite a 12 per cent increase in net profit.

Operating profit margins for the quarter dropped 4 percentage points to 10.1 per cent from a year earlier, while S$0.4 billion in orders were added to its total order wins of S$3.9 billion for the year to date.

"We are concerned that SMM's margins will be under further pressure in the coming quarters and years," said analysts at Religare Capital Markets Ltd in a note.

  1. SMM down today but Sembcorp is up today. Is there a buyback involved? If not, results looming might be good.

  2. Don't think so.

    Last buy back at 4.8227 was on 4 Sep 13.
