Trading Activities
For the past 3 months, Malaysia's economy and stock market were severely impacted by the outbreak of COVID-19. During February, I was still in buying mode which includes addition of Public Bank (1295) & Astro (6399). This quickly became a mistake as both stocks were considerably cheaper during subsequent market downtime.
Hence, my trading decision after March was centered around the following questions
1. Whether the business model of the company can still sustain post-COVID19?
I believe companies where their future survivability in doubt are Airasia & TWREIT.
2. Whether there is still a growing potential for the company, or I have to sell now to preserve cash?
Stocks that I subsequently sold were Symphony Life (1538), BAT (4162), YOCB (5159) & FIAMMA (6939)
Summary list of stocks bought/sold as follow:
