I have only two stocks for the past five years -- Genting and Focus. I invested GENM and Genting for RM2 & 3 respectively during the MCO period -- making a killing of course. I waited several years for 0.5¢ Focus mothers and daughters -- lowest price, so no paper loss, and only up. In April, invested GENM for RM1.52 -- paper profit, and waiting for RM3. My friends are old pros, but they all lost their shirt, so are you, haha:)

I knew exactly what Focus was -- a shark stock controlled by the XOX boss, who was previously in exile and controlling a small HK stock firm called Sanston. Many related shark stocks have this name like Fintec or Gocean. Why not invest in Fintec? Because it has no viable business as evidenced by the very poor gross margins. Focus's "net" loss does not tell the whole story.

Focus's net profits include paper losses/gains from investing in KLSE counters like Gocean, and expenses from opening up more F&B brands like the big F&B hub -- The Arch Galeries, next to TREC (opening in November 2025). If you live in KL, go and inspect the magnificent building and fantastic location, haha:) You have to look at the "gross margins" to see its dominant position in the F&B market!

Google AI:
"Warren Buffett highly values a company's gross margin as an indicator of its competitive advantage, or "moat". His rule of thumb is to look for companies that consistently maintain a gross margin of 40% or higher, as this signals pricing power and strong fundamentals."

Since at least 2019, the average gross margin is more than 50% consecutively (i.e., back-to-back)!!! No other stock in the whole KLSE has such a record -- you are welcome to give me one. If Focus did not choose the rapid expansion of brands, the "net profit" would be close to 50% of its revenue each quarter, excluding paper losses/gains! So, I might see you in The Arch Galeries for the RM12K/bottle tequila spirit:) You cannot plan to invest such a stock -- it came just the right time and place!

Why not the familiar Gentings and other blue chips forever? Because the first Genting investments are below 100% return. The only jumps of the 0.5¢ Focus mothers and daughters are 100% and much, much more -- the mother stood at 87¢ one time -- 174-times return, mind you?

Google AI:
"Yes, average investors can win in the stock market, especially when they adopt a long-term investment strategy rather than short-term speculation, but it requires patience, discipline, and a well-thought-out plan to avoid making emotionally driven mistakes like panic selling or timing the market. By staying invested through market downturns and focusing on consistent investing over time."

At least I have profits from Gentings to cover the Focus investment (just 0.5¢, nothing compared to Gentings) -- how about your investment plan -- not good, I suppose, hahaha:) Listening to the "retired" investor with no investment strategies will not help you! Five years and only had two counters means I planned carefully and seriously!

Oh, one last question -- how many of you have large numbers of Focus mothers and daughters? Not even the Morgan Stanley shark (most shares are 4¢ and above) had the 0.5¢ shares! If Focus is so bad, why did Morgan Stanley hold it for several years until the forced margin selling? You see, I know almost everything about Focus and the sharks. The 0.5¢ pricing is an insurance against the sharks -- something the retired, experienced investor cannot comprehend:)

You do not need to offer caution for others as most of them, despite my warnings, invested in daughters or mothers above 0.5¢! Now there are no other 0.5¢ investors. If we (my friend & I) do not buy, there would be no volumn:) We are more interested in 0.5¢ mothers now, and patience is the key!

A simple Google search can reveal how the Focus CEO addressing the declining F&B (short novelty) revenue, besides The Arch Galeries, is Oversea Restaurant branches -- e.g., the expensive spirits, supposedly from Focus, can be seen! Why Oversea? A search on the annual report shows that the same Focus CEO and the related sharks are controlling Oversea! Now, am I crazy to provide just actionable, reliable facts, or is it the BS retired investor?

From the writings, one can easily tell which one is more "rational" (providing more facts and analyses), and which one is a fool or crazy, mind you? If you do not like my comments, write more intelligent, knowledgeable comments against Focus -- do not just BS:) Everyone can do personal attacks, but only a few can do research work on the Internet, AI, and accounting reports.

Last, the main attack "declining revenue" does not mean there was no cash flow from the last quarter. The gross margin is 55.2%, so the real cash flow of RM7.59M is still cash! If you do not understand Buffett's gross-margin concept, you should learn it before the personal attacks!

He did not know how to go against the facts, so here are some "useful" questions for him to investigate:
1. The issued price of ICPS (or PA, daughters) is 5.5¢, and buying at the lowest 0.5¢ has no hope and will suffer further loss at 0¢, haha:)
2. The sum, about RM112M, was not kept in a bank account, and The Arch Galeries was not fully paid. The company saying the trustee account for the building has a surplus is fake news!
3. The ICPS conversion fund of about RM90M is fake, too!

4. The future rent income from The Arch Galeries (32 lots, a few for Focus brands) all goes for paying the building debt.
5. The 0.5¢ holders do not enjoy the benefits from the investors who paid more than 0.5¢!
6. Why should we care about the gross margin concept from a "foreign devil"?
7. Malaysia financial reports are all fake and controlled by sharks, just like 30 years ago!

8. The Arch Galeries will fail for sure, and forming "Lan Kwai Fong" with TREC is ridiculous as PAS will stop it.
9. The future, rich clients from TRX, like the senior staff from Ants, HSBC, Huawei, PwC, etc., do not like alcoholic beverages.
10. Focus Dynamics cannot force Oversea Restaurant to sell any expensive spirit as Chinese do not like wines or spirits.
11. The affuent residents in TRX and the surrounding areas are all Malays.
11. and so on...

I bet his replies are just insults that lack any useful information, fact, or knowledge, hahaha:) He even had the last insult wrong. As a top-30 shareholder of 0.5¢ Focus mothers, I can sell them at any time, but what for?

Did anyone here snap any 0.5¢ mother? How difficult, patient, and ready would that be? Most importantly, one must know Focus very well to commit. There are no such people, except my friend. So, in the whole of Malaysia, we are the only investors for the 0.5¢ Focus shares:) Hence, to convince anyone here to buy is ridiculous as you are all my 0.5¢ competitors!

There is a big investor who bought daughters from the very beginning, including perhaps 13¢ at one time, but I own most of the 0.5¢ PA:) No one competed at that price except my friend. I post continuously to remind my readers of the consequences of ignoring my warnings, 2-3 years ago, that all Focus shares would all smash to 0.5¢. This prediction becomes true now! My predictions on the diminishing Covid-19 and the success of Pfizer's mRNA vaccines are true, too:)

"Tui Bei Tu's" (TBT, "推背圖") 46th prophetic poem has predicted Xi Jinping's last and middle names ("習" & "平"), and his actual power status (as "公", not "帝," "皇," or "王") -- believe it or not!

The 46th prophecy's puzzles are similar to the 3rd one, which specifies the exact title/names of the first Chinese empress of the Tang dynasty:

日月当空
照临下土
扑朔迷离
不文亦武

The 1st phrase gives "日月空=曌," her official title. The 4th one contains "武," her last lame. So, the full title is "武曌." The 2nd phrase has "照," her maiden name!

FYI: "曌" was specifically created by the empress to mean just "照," her maiden name.

Utilizing similar character-puzzle patterns, TBT's 46th prophecy predicted Xi's last (白頭翁=習公) or middle (一人弓=夷=平) name, and his lordship ("公," not "帝," "皇," or "王") -- meaning no absolute power like Kim Jong Un. The first two phrases simply mean "習平公":

有一軍人身帶弓
只言我是白頭翁
東邊門裡伏金劍
勇士後門入帝宮

The 46th prophecy will predict the demise of Xi.

How accurate? Look at the real events that upset Lord Xi ("習公"): releasing COVID-19 in 2019 backfiring at him, failing many economic and foreign policies, weakening the PLA's support recently, etc. Biden said that you do not want to be Xi!

The last two phrases are everybody's guess. But the 3rd phrase's key characters "金劍," a Chinese magical sword (like Excalibur) controlling ancient sea monsters, may give you a clue -- could the psychics foresee the strange US submarines as sea monsters? Also, the South China Sea is east of China. If TBT is against Xi, the deeply allied Putin would not be blessed!

The official announcement of the firing of Miao Hua ("苗華"), a powerful rival to Zhang Youxia ("張又俠," "俠"="勇士"), who is a rival to Xi's power, is part of the fulfillment of one of Xi's two enemies -- "勇士後門入帝宮"!

Also, the external enemy of Xi -- "東邊門裡伏金劍," referring to the US Navy, including nuclear submarines or sea monsters -- will be strengthened under Trump!

Why does Xi have to go? The prologue of the prophecy says this:

黯黯陰霾
殺不用刀
萬人不死
一人難逃

If Lord Xi's ("習公," aka "白頭翁") reign is not checked, many Chinese will die ("萬人不死, 一人難逃"), causing a darkest moment ("黯黯陰霾, 殺不用刀") for China and its people.

Due to Xi (the slayer of the CCP monster), China is in deep trouble now, both in internal economic crisis and external military conflict against the West, especially the USA. However, I think the darkest moment has not yet come, probably 1-3 years away.

If Xi goes, China will most likely end up with a non-united country -- that is, fracturing into several states than one China -- so, likely no WW3:)

Interestingly, the deciphering can only be done by classical (aka traditional), not simplified Chinese as the authors are ancient Chinese!

For example, the "白頭翁" puzzle requires "習" (classical or traditional), not "习" (simplified)!

Still do not know how to get "習公" from "白頭翁"?

"頭" is not part of the word puzzle but a 3D positioning -- meaning "above of something."

"白頭翁" means to put "翁" ABOVE (means "頭" in Chinese) "白" and combine "習公" from the bottom up like this:

翁
白

Since Chinese characters are squares, it is not grammatically incorrect to read them from the bottom (though strange) and up! How is my classical Chinese, so far?

No one on the Internet can decipher the patterns of this prophecy because they did not respect similar patterns of the book. I am the first one to make a complete interpretation! From many rumors about Zhang Youxia, "勇士後門入帝宮" is partially fulfilled. High tensions are everywhere in the South China Sea, so "東邊門裡伏金劍" can happen anytime!

How come, crappy modern Chinese, again? You are too old and out of date, hahaha:) Cannot handle modern Chinese, nor is good at classical one -- ask your knowledgeable friends to write comments to avoid your low-IQ embarrassment, HAHAHA:) It is no need to read your low-IQ comment, HAHAHA...:) I am laughing to death -- help, somebody:) You are so funny and amusing and void of any knowledge. So, how could you profit anything from KLSE -- retired (out of money) "goreng hand"?

Hello, "retired old hand," I am queuing for 0.5¢ Focus mothers -- are you going to call the cops to stop me? Do not worry about the readers here as in the whole of Malaysia, we are the only buyers for Focus shares, haha:)

While waiting for the "retired (or senile) old hand" to give us further "enlightenment," my "original" TBT comments can really give the readers here some relief -- forget about Focus unless you study it diligently for at least several months. Do you worry about WW3? What would happen to my stocks? Would the world end? I do not take credit away from two Tang-Dynasty psychics, but I take credit for being the first to decipher their puzzles fully, and you are welcome!

Watch the real events about Xi's demise and the US Navy (or submarines) in the South China Sea. If the actual events are approaching to the 46th prophecy, the world, but not China, is safe, okay? From his childish comments, I do not expect the "old fool" to be able to comprehend the prophecy -- he has no clue about "Tui Bei Tu," haha:)

Man, "old hand" disappeared again from me -- at least his old pal, Zombie Kent, insulted me constantly for about two years:) But, Zombie Kent's comments seem to be no more! Tell your zombie friend if he has no patience in word-sparring with me, he has no patience for holding any stock. "Old hand" said I hide in Focus-WD, but the fact is they, the zombies, all disappeared from the original battleground, haha:)
