The dividend announcement saw foreign selling of 1,067,403 shares at 165 today. A clear indication of what is in store in coming days with negative investor sentiment. Probably the foreign investors are more interested in securing the capital than wait for dividends at the cost of losing the capital.

Ina difficult time giving a 5% DY at current market price is good (higher than a 1yr bank FD). A split is also pending.
My average cost for Samp is 120 so Div yield is higher and well worth it.

EPS 8.6 for 3 months. Even at this pace if they continue( ideally should improve) for one year will get 8.6 x 4 = 34.
Long share to hold long term. Can expect the same with HNB as well. Wonder why everyone is selling. 🤑🤑🤑

This is indeed a strange move from whoever the foreign shareholder/s,  Note the following,
1. Last 2+ weeks, SAMP price has oscillated between 145 (extreme drop on 11th, 1.26m shares) 250 (extreme rise on announcement of split on 29th, 14.48m shares).  Generally hovering around 168 in the last few days, averaging around 1m shares a day.

2. One would expect an immediate price rise from the dividend announcement of 8.25 (yesterday) and a high probability of buyers willing to pay 8.25 (or a reasonable %) upfront from 168 range, for the concerned quantity of shares (1m) that the foreign seller/s disposed.  Especially given the fact that the buyer easily make 5% within a month from dividend alone, the local retailer demand would likely have been present despite the generally red-state of bourse. SAMP also offer a solid NAV (281.94) increase of 2.4% and reasonable EPS (21.04), albeit reduced 35% due to the troubled times ending 9 months (31-12-2020).

In my opinion the sell at 165.00, helped keep the day and Sampath in the red.

Compare SAMP with HNB results. I think HNB did well during corona compared to its price HNB is worth buying for this quarter and shift to SAMP with upcoming results.

I believe a selling will make the SAMP to come down again after the split. Which makes the other banks look more attractive to long term gains.
