  (Somewhat confident outlook from management) The company reported a 30 percent increase in profit. Real Estate and Vietnam business contributing to the uplifting of profit. The company is guiding better profit compare to last year. Overall I think it is a good start to the new financial year after the lifting of covid restrictions in Singapore. The company is in a net cash of 155m about 49.5c cash per share even after the big purchase of Bideford Building. Asset value stood at $1.265.

  (Credit : Mark Möbius LinkedIn,I forget to take a snapshot of the book cover🤦‍♂️) The book titled “The Inflation Myth and The Wonderful World of Deflation” by former legendary Templeton fund manager Mark Möbius discussed the topic on misinformation of inflation. The book was published before the current inflationary madness plaguing the world.  Another term to describe inflation is currency debasement.
