Ytlpower-wb is definitely a gem cos it is negative premium plus long expiry date where as wct-wb's expiry is too near, u r like gambling with late uncle lim , if mom turn south , wb will 4low along d way , 2013 is right at d corner... think risk b4 profit.

Anybody buying warrants in Bursa is gambling. I like gambling once in a while too. Gambling of course take risk, the higher the better for punters; and usually the higher the risk the higher the return. In this case, I like WCT-Wb better because of its higher gearing at 10.6 times Vs that of 4 times of YTL Power Wb at today's closing prices. The underlying share WCT also is more liquid and has a higher volatility which is important for warrant punting. YTL Power Wb though has a longer expiry date of 5.6 years to go, it is not much of an advantage in view of its low volatility. Its higher dividend yield of 6% also is a negative factor for its warrant. Of course WCT Wb is riskier because of its higher gearing and shorter expiry date. But why the hell are you in warrant punting in the first place?
