The Star says there have been rollovers of the 4 counter shares again and again till a broker house withdrew the support by ending the facilities to the goreng people..

Chong! Look! I can tell if forummer got talent or not! So I wont waste time arguing with someone that I feel not to my level! And arguing means for me is supported by facts that I can learn something new! Criticism aside I can only accept from forummers that I regard highly of! It's a principle of argue to disagree! Some people cant argue well and resort to personal attacks, this show how low the intelligence of the person!
2014-04-30 20:16
fortune, in real world we face politics, in cyberworld also we face politics
very sad
2014-04-30 20:17

2014-04-30 20:30
just because some had missed the boat,,now they are taking advantage of the present situation to push down stocks..we came very far from past few years, market is gaining strength, to break the next levels...if market go down badly, then it is going to take a lot of TIME,, to gather the strength again..not easy
2014-04-30 20:37
Sing the same song for 365 days that market will drop, sure will strike one day. But it is the no shame to claim that ' i told you so ' is the worst part. Anyway this is how fortune teller works, dont they?
2014-04-30 20:38
Just a correction in the small cap index la..haih what to do..it went up too voraciously and now people are rethinking its valuations. I am bloody unlucky because I bought many new stocks right at April after profiting from my older ones. Now I kena. Have to hold only la

Shocks continue as Malaysian penny stocks sold down
BY YVONNE TAN
At the close of the market, the FTSE Bursa Malaysia Small Cap Index shed over 200 points to close at 17,390. The drop in the small-cap index reflected the poor sentiment across the broader market where some 728 counters finished the day in the red while only 192 ended the day higher. There were 256 stocks that remained unchanged.
PETALING JAYA: A day after four small capitalised stocks hit limit down, the shocks reverberated across Bursa Malaysia as penny stocks saw a major sell-down yesterday.
At the close of the market, the FTSE Bursa Malaysia Small Cap Index shed over 200 points to close at 17,390.
The drop in the small-cap index reflected the poor sentiment across the broader market where some 728 counters finished the day in the red while only 192 ended the day higher. There were 256 stocks that remained unchanged.
Among the small-cap stocks which fell the most were Stone Master Corp Bhd plunging 41.23% to 33.5 sen, Tiger Synergy Bhd which was down 10% to 14 sen and Wong Engineering Corp Bhd which finished 14.53% lower to 73.5 sen.
On Monday, four penny stocks, namely Visdynamics Holdings Bhd, MNC Wireless Bhd, Solution Engineering Holdings Bhd and Industronics Bhd, hit limit down almost simultaneously in the afternoon session, drawing queries from Bursa Malaysia.
According to a dealer, the four companies each had a block of shares that had been rolled over a few times.
“The was no real money coming in to pick up the blocks. The bubble finally burst after one stockbroking house out of several, stopped the line of credit,” said the dealer.
At the close yesterday, Visdynamics and Industronics remained in the red finishing 41.49% and 15.58% lower respectively while MNC and Solution Engineering recovered some earlier losses, ending the day 16.67% and 7.69% higher respectively.
Industronics in its reply to Bursa Malaysia on its unusual market activity (UMA) said it was currently exploring a proposal which involved an internal reorganisation of the group while MNC said it was not aware of any explanation for its UMA.
As far as links between the firms go, Solution Engineering is 10.8% owned by Industronics, an electronics company which has Danish national Christian Kwok-Leun Yau Heilesen as its chairman.
Interestingly, Kwok is being bandied around as being the common person involved in all four stocks.
The 30-year-old Kwok, however, said he had divested all his investments in Malaysia several months ago.
“I have not been to Malaysia for several months now ... I sold all my investments several months ago to investors from Macau,” Kwok told StarBiz when contacted.
Kwok, together with Raymond Yip Wai Man, used to own about 15% in DVM Technology Bhd and he also held a stake in Industronics, which he has since divested.
He is no stranger to market controversy.
In 2011, Kwok, who is based in Hong Kong together with Yip, bought into DVM after which they requisitioned an EGM to remove several directors from the company.
The boardroom tussle never happened. Instead Kwok and Yip sold out of DVM.
Not long after that, DVM’s share price plunged to 13.5 sen after reaching 25 sen earlier, its highest in five years.
This current fall in the shares of small-caps is fast stoking concerns among traders, suggesting to them that the party could be over.
Despite the fall in certain small-caps in the past two days, the FTSE Bursa Malaysia Small Cap Index is up 10% year-to-date.
It has gone up significantly compared with the benchmark FTSE Bursa Malaysia KL Composite Index which is up 0.4% since the start of January.
Some analysts feel that there remains some upside for the lower-liners as bigger-caps and blue-chips are still expensive and offer comparably less returns to investors.

This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....

wasted my 17min. They don't even know what actually happen. If they did their homework and take their time to read the affected limit-down counter, they'll learn that shark who have been pulling the string to raise the share price decided to pull out after it was discovered.
And what did Bursa do, ask the management of the company to explain what happen. Their job so easy, I also can do. Just issue UMA.
