Wolf Money(Jardine C&C)correction

Image
  (Image credit: Jardine C&C) After my holiday, the first agenda is a test purchase on Jardine C&C. The stock is under a lot of pressure due to economic situation in Indonesia. The competition by Chinese EV in Indo market and the removal of the company from the STI index last year also adds pressure to the share. During the month, the stock was down 16%. The confluence of factors caused substantial weakness in the stock price.  The company is trading at less than 8x p/e with a dividend yield of 5.2%. I am taking a small interest to keep myself interested. No crazy money involved. More detail at the end of the month update. God Bless.

  (Image credit: openaccessgoverment.org) Oh! MyGod(thos) I had the privilege of speaking to a friend who formerly worked as a developer for AI. Through the 2 hours of conversation. My knowledge of AI has been upgraded from the status of Noob. He is trying to develop an AI model for the education sector. I wouldn’t go further since it is still a work in progress. He hopes to get a running model by the end of next month.  The hottest job now in the tech space is AI developer. From our conversation, I got to know, an experienced developer makes $25,000 a month with one of the big tech. Even the junior developer is drawing a 5-figure salary. If anyone is looking for a career transition, a developer in the AI industry draws in top dollar. The conversation also sparked my interest in AI. I chanced upon Anthropic, Claude Mythos, the most powerful frontier AI model ever created. After reading and trying to understand the implications of Mythos, I walked away quite disturbed by the la...
