Yes, the recent sell down due to this and the fact that almost 50% of Global Investment holdings are in AT1 bonds and these bonds have dropped in value due the Credit Suisse saga where AT1 bondholders were wiped out.  These are lumped under Bank Contingent Convertibles (page 2, in purple).  Not feeling comfortable with this and hence has liquidated all my holdings, taking some losses.... sigh.

In that case, why did the stock price fall by 20%? And the recovery this morning is only 4%. Also, I noticed quite steep decline from 0.14x to 0.12 in the past weeks. What are the issues? It cannot be just because of interest rate hikes, right? I looked at their portfolio - seems OK. Anybody can share their opinions? (Note: Vested investor)
 
 
Chialat, I reinvest dividend
Announcement just came out. I believe 2.33% of NAV is wiped out.

Global Inv holds European bonds that provide cash flow to fund the dividends. Credit Suisse shotgun marriage to UBS resulted in higher risk since some bond holders were wiped out first but not shareholders. That created more uncertainty as established rules were overwritten by Swiss authorities.  Hence i think this affected Global Inv.

Shares buyback is a way for a listed company to reward its shareholders by reducing the number of floating shares, thereby potentially increasing the earnings per share.
It is also a way for companies to buy back their shares when they feel that the shares are undervalued. This could be used as a signal for investors to take note.
We have identified 3 Singapore listed companies with significant shares buyback that you should take note of.

I think there is a blackout duration before results announcement that company is not allowed to perform share buyback.
I think it is something like 2 weeks blackout period.
Should be earnings announcement soon.

While the listing rules do not expressly prohibit share buybacks in any particular period, Mr Tan said that as best practice, companies should refrain from share buybacks during the two weeks immediately preceding the announcement of quarterly financial statements, and one month immediately before the full-year financial statements.

Company no buy back share for 2 days already.
Break Through  0.145 
This company is more like a unit trust or fund. It invest the capital for cashflow.
Over the years, the share count had increased as sharecan opt to receive dividends as shares or cash.
So the share price has been trending down as their yield cannot improve much with the additional capital from new shares.
The share repurchase will help keep yield up.
So, investing in its own share would make sense instead of investing into limited options outside.
In current low yield environment, their own share has much better yield.

It means the company has no better use of the money, it thinks itself is a better investment than all others. It make sense though as price is lower than Net asset.
