Noble Group was one of my first few purchases from the open market. Actually I do not remember now the reason why I bought Noble. Perhaps some hot tips? But during the days of the 1,000 shares per lot time, Noble was the first counter that I held more than a single lot size.
When I decided to embark on my dividend investment journey, Noble was the first counter that got the cut because of its low dividend payouts. I exited Noble with some profits when it was still a low $2+ stock.
Not that I am paying particular attention to the stocks that I have in the past, but Noble was always in the news. Muddy Waters, Iceberg reports and the non-stop procession of bad news keep Noble in the forefront of financial news.
Now the CEO had left and the Chairman is abandoning ship. And the issue of 1:1 rights at massive discount to the current share price. This is a sad story of a commodity giant turning into a penny stock.
Well, you win some and you lose some. I also cut off Raffles Medical which is turning into a big mistake now.....
