Most people have recently forecast Brent Crude to trade between USD 40-USD 50 ( not jet fuel oil ). Price may be trending higher now but whether sustainable is a big Q ?

well articulated on AA coming P & L qtr result.

Calvin. i am not bearish on the plantation outlook but just put in my 2 cents worth. THe windfall tax on plantations will kick in if the average price is above RM 2,250 per tonne for Peninsular Malaysia and RM 3,000 for East Malaysia. The rate is set between 4.5 % - 8.5% ( which means the Government will enjoy a sum of between RM 112 - RM 200 per tonne of CPO produced ). The planters also have to bear the increased cost of levy for foreign workers ( from RM 590 increased to RM 1,500 per head ). The minimum wage will be increased to RM 1,200 ( from RM 900 ) starting from 1st July. What i am saying not all plantation(s) will enjoy the full benefits. only the more efficient one will derive more compared to the less efficient ones

prices may go higher but the speakers ( Dorab & James Fry ) far too gung ho on their price projections. we need to factor in the reduced demand from China and INdia ( the world's two biggest user ) Bio-diesel will remains muted (despite government mandatory blending ) still funding & subsidies need to provide for bio-diesel production. US and Europe has more or less dropped Bio-fuel from their agenda. Car manufacturers are now moving in the direction of Electic ( EEV direction ) this is my personal take

MOst airlines hedge at least 50% of their fuel cost. AA last year hedge their jet fuel at USD 75 per barrel. THis year Brent Crude trading between USD 30 - USD 40 (Jan- Mar ). savings should be quite significant

last time they hedge 50% fuel oil at USD 75 .Brent Crude has recover from USD 28 per barrel to USD 38 per barrel. going forward most traders expect Brent Crude to trade range bound USD 40-USD 50 between now till JUne. Fuel oil is the biggets cost to an airline. Just to share

rotation play. pushing air asia now will go for AAX. just my intutution. cheers

trade within your limit and never trade beyond your means. opportunities to trade is always there. make the best out of it but not literally use the slang borrow , beg , steal. Happy trading and AAX fly to greater heights
( price wise )

no risk no gain. but always trade within your means. this is all i can say . good luck bros. cannot yam seng. price of beer increase

Keck Seng is a very consevative company. controlled by the Ho family members. Forex impairment means their Accountants used certain forex exchange rate to ascertain the differences. Keck Seng seldoms reward their minority shareholders even during the boom times.

KTC sold down because last qtr profit drop ( partly due to listing exercise )

Governments of the day knows the importance of the link between wall street and high street. They will do their utmost to protect and promote the growth of the country's bonds and equities. negative rates are one of the tools they are using to stimulate growth

nobody can tell you what's safe or not safe. Your ownself must decide. Warren BUffee admits he makes a mistake when he missed out on Microsoft !

timing is everything. great plans can be derailed by bad (wrong) timing.this is just my 3 cents worth. Happy Chap goh Mei

China is embracing solar energy (and Taiwanese Co's ) have the mover advantage. Electricity is generated mostly by hydroelectric power ( dams ), natural gase ,petroleum , Coal or Nulear sources. Solar power is classifeied as clean renewable energy. This is different from petroleum or diesel which is used to power our motor vehicles. Happy Trading

tq ( icon 8888) for the telstra tranlation. the other point i like to share is the investment tax credit (ITC) scheme. part of the reasons for the popularity of bio-fuel in the US was the ITC introduced in the early 2011-2012 period. there was a boom in the bio=fuel usage. with the green technology. US is pushing hard for the solar power. Happy trading

nothing wrong if the price moved lower. timing is everything. uncle khoon.

most private placement are parcel out to friendly third parties. pricing are based on the average traded prices ( 5-7 trading days ) . after price is fixed the quantum of shares issued out ( not exceeding 10% or 15 % ( whichever authorised limit based on their M & A ). After that wait for announcement. hopefully we get our ang pow. cheers

green is the in thing just be patient

Most FX traders have factor in the downtrend in Brent Crude. GDP is forecast > 4.5 % . If things work according to what the bankers predicted. MYR is undervalued at this point time. perception is everything. if Zeti replacement ( far below people expectation )then Ringgit may trade lower. Mind you Sarawak state election is around the corner. A big win for BN might bolster the fortune of the MYR. Not forgeting China Yuan and the Iran oil-deal. Happy trading

Companies holding excessive cash as reserve (means not utilizing it in the most diligent way ) cash rich doesnt translate into [profitability )

the tallest building will NOT be KLCC. this will be Menara 118 ( old stadium Merdeka site) later re-named as Ah Jib Gor ? any suggestion

uncle Koon may not be perfect. You may disagreed with his viewpoint but the bottomline everybody is entitled to his or her opinion. this is what we need. not 100% yesmen

we got screw by the national car project

i will still hold on to CIMB. Indonesia operations looking good (not as bad as what previously forecast)

Funds supporting. Ringgit strenghten ( double take ) currency & capital gains on index linked stocks. Cheers to the coming CNY

happiness ? depends what stage (of life ) you are in . NOnetheless, Mr Khoon just cary on what's best you are keen to do. afterall life is like a dream. some good ,some not so good. Cheers for coming Lunar NewYear

i just learn a new word MAPA fund. stands for mama and papa funding thier children. we are losing our best & brightest students ( cream of the lots ) to the idiotic funding policy. they are financing Perkasa, Tinju Ali, REd Shirt, whole lots of crabs, cow financing etc

this week already seen slow-down, institution's players eyeing China. Lunar New Year long break for China ( Golden week holiday )

CIMB have come out a press release no planned cash call ( main reason for the recent price sell down ) prices should stablised and perk up if incoming quaters result positive. Indonesia operations previously drag down Group.

I need to disagree that Mr Koon cannot be wrong. Even GOD make a mistake in choosing the choosen one. just stick to your own stye of investing ( knowing best in whatever you do ) and improved on others. Happy trading

3 kg ang pow ? wow your secretary WWF divas ?

FDI is working on their dollar signs. with Crude Oil rebounding and Ringgit strenghtening. FDI will play up the market cashing in on the renewed vigour of the Ringgit and the oversold KLCI. Blue chip particularly banks will be the beneficiary. this is my take on the market. happy trading

MYR rebound .good for banking stocks (attracts FDI)

this rto counter ( vivocom ) has potential.however dont expect it to pump up at this point of time. projects are there but need time to work out the numbers

FCV needs to ascquire and expand their ageing land banks. The el-nino is hitting FGV hard. some forecast their production has drop 40%. HIgher prices cannot compensate their lower volume. Inaddition, Eadle High Indonesia price is high compared to IOI acqusition ( BUmiutama ).

sharks are cunning. you wont know why hits you. penny counters are thier favourites

BNM is a toothless tiger. Zeti is on her way out !
