Market Daily Report: Bursa Malaysia Bucks Regional Trend, CI Down 0.45 Pct On Mild Profit-taking

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 6 (Bernama) -- Bursa Malaysia ended lower on Tuesday, with the key index slipping 0.45 per cent amid a lack of catalysts and mild profit-taking following recent gains, in contrast with regional markets.   At 5 pm, the FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI (FBM KLCI) declined 7.97 points to 1,672.35 from Monday’s close of 1,680.32. The benchmark index started the day 1.91 points lower at 1,678.41 and moved between 1,667.82 and 1,679.26 throughout the day.  On the broader market, gainers beat losers by 624 to 506, while some 531 counters were unchanged, 988 untraded, and 11 suspended. Turnover improved to 2.66 billion units worth RM2.76 billion against Monday’s 2.53 billion units worth RM2.40 billion. 

1M by 28, possible?

1M by 28 , is it possible? After doing some thinking for days, I come to this 1M figure. Some might be asking "Why not 100K?" , or "Why not 1B?", or "Why not other figure?". Well 100K will be quite easy to achieve, while 1B will be too difficult and I was too lazy to come out with other figures. To be honest, 1M is not easy nor difficult. This is because as a salary drawing person , our net worth will not grow exponentially . In order to have our net worth growing exponentially, we will have to invest. My plan of course is to invest a big chunk of my money to stocks, so that I can earn from dividend, and also from the price appreciation. Money working for us definitely easier than we work for money. I'm 25 this year and so it means I have 3 years to achieve this and 3 years equivalent to 36 months or 156 weeks or 26280 hours. It also means that for each hour I need to earn at least RM39 to achieve this goal. Too bad I do not have much capital in hand...
