HK's Li Ka-shing says property sales worst in 13 years
HONG KONG] Asia's richest man, Li Ka-shing, says his business has suffered its worst year in more than a decade as measures to cool one of the world's most expensive real estate markets take their toll on Hong Kong's powerful developers. "We only recorded about HK$4 billion (US$515.97 million) of property sales for the entire year, merely 15 percent of the total sales in between HK$26 billion to HK$27 billion during the past two years," Mr Li told the Guangzhou-based Southern Metropolis Daily in an interview published on Thursday - Reuters

listen to not what Superman say but observe what he do. This guy is not as "philanthropic" as Buffett

Completely agree. But unlike WB. , Superman is from "The man in the street" who sold plastic flowers. So that's why he is nicknamed as "SUPERMAN".
So any IPO from him, i think twice. No, correction, thrice. And why in Singapore and not HK is more than enough for me to be very wary? You say common-sense or emotion. It's up to you. i think either one is right is more than enough.
WB:-
1) Rule # 1, do not lose money.
2) Rule # 2, refer to # 1.
3) Not until you can manage your emotions, you can manage your money.
Truism of Investments.
A) Buying a security is buying RISK not Return
B) You can control RISK (to a certain level, hopefully only.) But definitely not the outcome of the Return.
NB:-
My signature is meant for psychoing myself. No offence to anyone. i am trying not to lose money unnecessary anymore.
