  1. Hi,
    I ma visiting from ArticlePinger.com.

    I wonder how can we trade stock using stock Rights? I know that there are some stocks giving Rights to the shareholders. But how can we profit from it? Could you share your knowledge about it?

    Is there a way to do Option Trading in Malaysia?

    I will come back to read your comments soon. :)

  2. Sorry Lee,

    ZL do not and don't know how to trade OPTIONS.

    As for stock RIGHTS ISSUES >>> They are only a FORM allocated to a share holder of the said stock. Rights are not WARRANTS until you pay for the warrant at a price fixed by the issuer aka the Company.

    These Rights Form have a very short life span sometimes 1 mth sometimes more. Any non-shareholder who wishes to buy such a warrant needs to buy the RIGHTS Form before expiry then only can the non-share holder send CASH for each warrant at it's fixed price.

    If you are a ahareholder and allocated a number of Rights Form you can sell off those forms in open market and forget abt the warrants.

    TQVM for your enquiries Lee

    Have a nice day!

    Regards,
    ZL
