Reader:
A senior of mine at work told me about your blog when we chatted about stocks. I mentioned Hock Lian Seng and he said AK blogged about it. I bought this because my broker told me it was worth at least 69c and that there was a special dividend. I paid 62c but the price has plunged. I wonder if I should hold or sell or buy more. If you are wondering, I just started investing this year and I don't know who to trust now.
AK:
Trust yourself. Trust no one else, not even AK. I have nothing against your broker and I think I know which brokerage he is from but don't trust him either.
Don't rely on others for investment tips. Buying something because it was a hot tip could end up burning you......
