    These Jamaican Stocks Look Cheap — But the Market May Be Right

    🎙️ Ryan Strachan returns for Part 2 with Dr. Matthew Preston and Dr. Thaon Simms for a wide-ranging conversation on Jamaica’s stock market, investing, entrepreneurship, and wealth creation. 📈 Why are many Jamaican financial institutions trading at relatively low valuations? 🏦 Ryan argues that the market may be sending a message: banks and investment firms need to become more aggressive about M&A, investment banking, dealmaking, and creating new revenue streams. The conversation also dives into Carreras 🚬, Dolphin Cove 🐬, Sagicor’s proposed APO, JMMB, Lasco Manufacturing, the JSE Micro Market, Junior Market investing, and market makers. Ryan also explains why investors should focus on underlying value rather than market noise—and why stocks deserve the same long-term mindset many Jamaicans already apply to real estate. 🏠📊 The episode closes with a bigger lesson on entrepreneurship, opportunity in Jamaica 🇯🇲, persistence, relationships, and the extraordinary results that can come from simply being consistent for long enough. 🚀 📊 Highlights & Chapters: 0:00 - 1:51 | 🎙️ Ryan Strachan Returns for Part 2 1:51 - 19:48 | 🏦 Why Jamaican Financial Stocks Are Struggling 19:48 - 29:14 | 🚬 Carreras, Vaping Growth & Illicit Cigarettes 29:14 - 41:12 | 🐬 Dolphin Cove & Jamaica’s Need for Bigger Deals 41:12 - 49:14 | 📈 The JSE Micro Market & New Company Listings 49:14 - 1:06:10 | 🌎 Sagicor APO, JMMB & Finding Hidden Value 1:06:10 - 1:18:23 | 🏭 Lasco, New Products & Manufacturing Growth 1:18:23 - 1:29:37 | 💹 Market Makers, Junior Market & Retail Investors 1:29:37 - 1:42:57 | 🏠 Stocks vs Real Estate for Building Wealth 1:42:57 - 1:59:19 | 🚀 Opportunity, Entrepreneurship & the Power of Consistency 🎧 Listen to more episodes: https://limitlesspodcast.buzzsprout.com 🐥 Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/Limitless_pod 📷 Stay connected on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/limitless_pod/ 💲 Get exclusive insights: https://bit.ly/Limitless-MMJA-Discount 👍 If you enjoyed this episode, please like, subscribe, and share! ❓ Do you think Jamaica’s next major investing opportunity will come from financial stocks, the Junior Market, or a new generation of companies coming to the JSE?

    Is TransJamaican Highway On Its Way to $30?

    🚀 TransJamaica Highway (TJH) is up roughly 160% year-to-date—but after such an explosive run, how much higher can it really go? And with the possibility of shareholders receiving somewhere in the region of J$4 billion in cash, could TJH be heading toward its biggest dividend yet? 💰📈 In this episode of the Limitless Podcast, Dr. Matthew Preston and Dr. Thaon Simms break down one of the hottest stocks on the Jamaica Stock Exchange 🇯🇲. They examine TJH’s incredible rise from its original listing price to nearly $13, the surge in trading activity, institutional and pension-fund demand, and whether buying around $12 still makes sense. 🛣️ The conversation also goes beyond the next dividend. Could the Montego Bay Perimeter Road, future highway concessions, higher toll rates, and an expanded Jamaican road network create another major growth phase for TransJamaica? The guys also debate dividend yield versus capital gains, profit-taking after a huge rally, TJH’s massive buy and sell queues, potential stock splits, and whether this could become one of those Jamaican stocks investors hold for decades. 💎 Is TJH still a buy—or has the market gotten ahead of itself? 📊 Highlights & Chapters: 0:00 - 5:43 | 🚀 TJH’s 160% Rally and the Long-Term Run 5:43 - 13:22 | 🔥 Is TransJamaica Getting Too Hot 13:22 - 20:40 | 💰 Dividends Pension Funds and Institutional Demand 20:40 - 28:20 | 🛣️ Montego Bay Perimeter Road Opportunity 28:20 - 36:45 | 🌴 How New Highways Could Transform TJH 36:45 - 44:19 | 📊 Estimating Revenue From Future Toll Roads 44:19 - 49:16 | 📉 Profit Taking and Who Is Selling TJH 49:16 - 55:02 | 💵 Dividend Yield vs Capital Gains 55:02 - 1:01:18 | 📈 Buy Queue Valuation and Stock Split Debate 1:01:18 - 1:06:00 |  What TJH’s Rally Means for Jamaican Investors 🎧 Listen to more episodes: https://limitlesspodcast.buzzsprout.com 🐥 Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/Limitless_pod 📷 Stay connected on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/limitless_pod/ 💲 Get exclusive insights: https://bit.ly/Limitless-MMJA-Discount 👍 If you enjoyed this episode, please like, subscribe, and share! ❓ Are you buying TJH around $12, holding for the long term, or taking profits after the 160% run?
