Have You Heard of Spiking?

My Sweet Retirement 2 Comments

Recently, someone posted a screenshot that shows insider trades. It got almost everyone in the forum thread asking what is this application and how did they get the information.

I finally found out what application it is. The application is called “Spiking” and you can download it from the app store for iPhone and Google Play store for Android users.

If you didn’t know, Spiking is actually a homegrown app. Spiking allows investors to track the stock transactions and portfolios of investors. Interestingly, they classify investors into “Blue Whales”, Millionaires and Billionaires. Read More

Tai Sin Electric Revenue Fell Due to Prevailing Uncertainties In The Market

Share price of Tai Sin Electric fell today 4.5% today to S$0.425 after releasing a set of weak results. Tai Sin Electric reported revenue declined 12.86% from $320.91 million last year to $279.65 million.

In my previous post (My Personal Analysis of Tai Sin Electric Limited), I mentioned about Tai Sin Electric’s revenue and profits are very dependable on the construction sector which is cylindrical. Not withstanding the slowdown in the property market and continued economic uncertainties, revenue declined across all its business segments (Cable & Wire (C&W), Electrical Material Distribution (EMD), Switchboard (SB), Test and Inspection (T&I)).

In current 2017, net cash from operating activities was 37.4 million. Cash flow for Tai Sin Electric is still going strong despite gloomy economical conditions and it has been growing since 2012.
