You're right about that. Typ...Hi la papillion,<br /><br />You're right about that. Typically investors use the current dividend yield as a gauge. Probably its also good to check the track record of dividend payouts of the company itself. But I guess its still not a foolproof way of ensuring dividends can be sustained. Do visit my blog when you're free and give your feedbacks too.<br /><br />Thanks for the insight :)<br />secretinvestorshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02516160455880025991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-58870764984679606742014-12-27T11:00:17.947+08:002014-12-27T11:00:17.947+08:00Hi secretinvestors,

What I did is actually the same thing as that formula, it's just that I used the 0th dividend instead of the 1st.<br /><br />But having worked out the formula, if u take dividend/price to get the yield, I now know that the yield calculated has certain assumptions that nobody talks about. It is based on a zero growth dividend model, paying the same dividend (as used in the calculation) until infinity. <br /><br />If ever the dividend changes, esp if it decreases, or if it doesn't give dividend till infinity, the valuation will fail. That's the most Impt takeaway for me :) la papillionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01372278083694506953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-2962869822394617452014-12-27T10:26:11.973+08:002014-12-27T10:26:11.973+08:00Hi,

I ...Hi,<br />Nice post there regarding the DDM model :)<br /><br />I guess a quick way to look at this based on the 'standard' zero-growth DDM formula is probably just the dividend yield. If the rate of return required is 5%, then any dividend yield above 5% is what we want. DDM zero-growth model: Sum = D/r. Rearranging them becomes D/Sum = r. Substitute Sum with Market price and if we want a return greater than required return, it becomes D/P > r --> Dividend yield > r. <br /><br />Your conclusion about how sustainable is the dividend and whether there will be special dividends or dividends cut is very true. Great post there. Will follow your post from now :)secretinvestorshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02516160455880025991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-75184029730657539422014-12-24T13:22:26.473+08:002014-12-24T13:22:26.473+08:00Hi K,

It's not that hard to track it and it allows more flexibility than any software out there, if there's any. You can check out Investment moats...he did a dividend tracker, and maybe he might have such a spreadsheet template already out.la papillionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01372278083694506953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-59923831105562202172014-12-24T11:18:13.571+08:002014-12-24T11:18:13.571+08:00Hi,

I am using iOCBC and it just tracks your market price and buy price to give you are P/L% excluding dividends. <br /><br />Thanks.<br />KKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01096331252046081022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-31022379474976274972014-12-18T13:25:36.088+08:002014-12-18T13:25:36.088+08:00Hi Halcyon,

However given the recent slowdown in the regional aviation MRO sector, I'm reckoning SIAEC might not be able to pay out 20 cents of dividend this year. I am guessing it will range between 16-18 cents, depending on their next 2 quarters.<br /><br />Disclosure: I'm long SIAECHalcyon Tomorrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00668088955262278037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-3594628148209741362014-12-16T15:59:13.568+08:002014-12-16T15:59:13.568+08:00I come in to seek opinion on today's share pri...I come in to seek opinion on today's share price of Sembcorp Marine.

Thanks for your comments, very valid.
I sa...Hi M,<br /><br />Thanks for your comments, very valid.<br /><br />I saw the formula, but I don't really understand it, hence I used my own. At first, I also don't understand why using the standard formula gives $20 and not my calculated $21. But thanks to your pointers, I think I do now. As you've rightly pointed out, I calculated my first term as the 0th yr, but the standard one didn't. Thanks a lot for that :)<br /><br />And you're right. It's easier using the formula than my own, but as I've mentioned, I've problems understanding it (most sites don't derive it), so I'm hesitant to use it. <br /><br />I think a starting point is 5%. I use it for planning purpose actually. For any investment I put in, minimally I want to get is 5% (dividends + capital), hence that discount rate. We can aim higher..8%? 10%? But 5% level is what I'll be looking at. If the price falls cheaper than that, I know I'll be hitting at least my min.<br /><br />la papillionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01372278083694506953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-42431307988021811562014-12-08T20:43:20.463+08:002014-12-08T20:43:20.463+08:00Hi SMK,

This formula is easier to calculate than your example..<br /><br />2. IMHO, we should expect more than a 5% returns in investing the stocks that you mentioned.<br /><br />Just some comments.<br /><br />MAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-23700733311704788952014-12-08T17:50:40.321+08:002014-12-08T17:50:40.321+08:00Kudos on using something a secondary school studen...Kudos on using something a secondary school student can understand. :)<br /><br />I guess most readers will miss out on the importance of the last 2 sentences.SMKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10968938425811827200noreply@blogger.com
