rebound back in 1-2 days :D
What price is a good  buy....
0.67 is 1 year low. Unless there is bad news brewing, it should not be staying at that level for too long. Just my 2 cents.
BTW, it' s not just Yoma.  I cleared all stock exposures.  Have a bad feeling.
Yoma crashed this morning, there was a big sell down when mkt opened.   
I cleared off everything though it didn' t hit my stop loss as I didn' t understand why there was selling, but get out first then analyse later.
Price is now supported by buyers.      I wanted to get back in, but decided not to, don' t feel good about this mkt.
It' s really your call.      It' s a Myanmar play, a lot of property investment and long term should be good if it is well managed.
 
Good time go in now? 0.695!?!
Oh, and there is that illusive dragonfly doji as well, all these (5 dojis, hammers) happened within the past 7 trading days.

Chartists would be watching the action, in a downswing that started in early June (following the sudden spike on 23rd May), with 5 dojis, two inverted hammers, signifying bullish reversal of the downtrend.
Let' s see how the price perform in this week.
The more I dig into the financials, the more I like about this co.  It' s got great potential, which is why the fund house is buying into it.  I think it' s a win win for the co, fund house, and us shareholders.
See the low debt.     
See Balance sheet, virtually half of their assets are in land.   
The hottest play in the region seems to be in Myanmar and this co. has a property play.
