No comment from me especially on buy/sell bottom down same as before, since day 1 in the forum. Otherwise the 90% will stuff the big dead cat into my mouth for encouraging you guys to buy/sell and suffer with me, lol

Please kindly google on harta dividend history to find out more. The "sufferer" of harta shareholder here cannot influence, drag you guys to suffer with me on my holding in the company shares. Otherwise get hentam by the 90% here, lol

No justification here on the overall dividend gain, otherwise the 90% may tell me to harakiri with holding harta stock later on, lol. Annual report clearly stated dividend policy commitment to distribute a minimum 60% of harta annual net profit still remain. Proposed final dividend 3.5 sen per share single tier with total dividend for the year 57sen per share, total payout of RM1.9 billions, payout ratio of 60%

AGM 1st September 2022 , Sime Darby Convention Centre

Already received Harta Annual Report 2022 via post....notice of meeting resolution to approve 3.5 sens dividend

Continue guys...holland in closing shop in RM1 in....still interesting for me to follow up on the 90% comments here, at least to fill up my leisure time...I will be the same stance as you Quirkyway, dont interrupt the 90% here, lol

Windy1974
As a forumer, if you are here to argue why Harta is not a buy yet, great. I think so too. However, if you aren't sure where to invest your money, or your alternatives are Gpacket, Serba, or 90% other KLSE companies, then i would say you are better off in HARTA.
However, if you are here to savour the sufferings of HARTA shareholders, then i would like to congratulate you being like the rest 90% of i3 forumers. Your endings have been decided because you are just the 90%

Clearly understand the meaning of 90% by windy1974

Suddenly appeared in forum for filling up my time reading shareholders opinion on harta shares and giving my comments/feedbacks considered promoting harta during downturn with me suffering dragging others in buying the shares suffering with me...gosh must not interrupt you guys shouting RM1 closing shop going down to holland etc etc, probably may follow up with telling me to harakiri with my shareholding of harta stock goin downhill...lol

Thumb up Quirkyway..definitely toxic here

Yes toxic all these time with all my comments consist the words of "please buy harta shares" to those intelligent shareholders out there, lol...truly those words automatically appeared in all my comments in the forum ....probably blabbing my good old days gain till now still receiving dividend just like any ordinary shareholder out there is toxic

In that case, dropping from RM23 plus to RM2 now continue rolling down will put me to the front page harakiri instead of suffering soon...lol....all those years i must be the standing kayu shareholder with my portfolio...lol

Dearly me....i myself dont know Im in pain now due to owning harta shares with all my comments intending to drag people to buy more harta shares and so called suffer with me...no wonder the old timer forumer here said i3 is a toxic forum for all

Not doubt China is the king of mass production, conquering the share market...but is it correct to assume that all the markets worldwide are opened to China goods. Even India now putting a ban on China low price smartphone at certain price level. Trade barriers between China and US still exist, disagreement especially on the Taiwan territorial state still rise between the two big powers. Lots of possibilities, lots of uncertainties....

Shareholders are no nincoompoop easily influenced by anybody in the forum here. It is a forum of agree to disagree  on the ongoing in harta shares with supported facts, though some may just pluck them out from the air, lol.... and it is up to the intelligent shareholders out there to make their own decision on their portfolio.

Businesses...share markets....the up and mostly down for most...everywhere worldwide the same at this moment.... not just gloves sector, Bursa Malaysia....it is up to each shareholders in handling their own portfolio...like Quirkyway said never turn yourself to a god of gamblers, betting down to your last underwear, lol

Dearly me...comparing mask and condom with medical gloves.... the manufacturing process must be exactly the same in that case, easy peasy like the doughnut business. Besides the correct method of the whole tedious production process, the end products are subjected to FDA approval in the US and the relevant authorities in each country. The whole container may get detained at the port upon failure passing the neccesary testing. Now ESG comes into place, great emphasize on labour issue, another requirement to be strictly met by the manufacturers. Therefore the government involvement on this aspect is much needed. Not many tomdicknharry can handle the business of manufacturing gloves, that is why we can see the exits of those new players. The fate the future of the gloves business, being one of the biggest contributer to the country revenue, is much to be seen with lots of possibility and uncertainties ahead them. New players are lots, China US with the same obstacles of cost hike labour issue in their very own country but surviving the business long term, well we will just need to wait and see. And by the way guys, number zooming down is beyond anybody control, it is the share market afterall .....wealth depleted due to harta shares, lol...yes those shareholders and bosses must be slowly turning to beggar on the street soon.

Truly agreed...when it comes to global supply demand, competition and cost hike, there is nothing much the company can do except adapt to changes in the market scenario and come out with the strategic plan to overcome every big hurdles ahead them. My trust still remain on the management in steering the company towards the right path during this difficult period.

We just cannot have it all afterall...i hope the government will understand the predicament the industry is facing now at this moment, for one at least try to expedite the foreign workers recruitment in the industry. It is afterall contributing so much to the country revenue in the past till as of todate.

Truly agreed...

N guys the big chunk in my retirement fund is a one off amount derived from selling during those peak price...just to be clear otherwise i may mislead anybody here again on the gain in harta shares.

But..shrobin...my portfolio is full so far with adequate harta shares in hand...definitely no spare bullets to buy more....will just see how low the price will continue to drop in the coming days

True...harta is a win win for all...good returns to the shareholders (frankly a big chunk to my retirement fund), contribute to the country revenue and community/society as well, continue creating jobs for the younger generations and during the pandemic together with the big top 3, donated millions of gloves to the gov. How can harta not being the most respected darling shares in my portfolio.

Dear me....did I misled anyone here on the one off tax payment to the government...hopefully not affecting any of you guys decision on buying/selling shares here.

https://www.nst.com.my/business/2022/05/794973/hartalega-hit-cukai-makmur-posts-first-ever-quarterly-loss

Saddening though...pity those 4 top gloves manufacturers millions donated during pandemic plus the windfall tax to the gov, yayasan hartalega contribution to the community, thousands of jobs provided by hartalega to the younger generation, called me a moment of being sentimental, I am happy looking at those happy young faces of 3 races including the foreigners working in such a good environment company. Now they are called laosai kings, goin down to hollands despite company still making money, of course not as superb during the pandemic period when everybody laughing all the way to the bank.

I am excited as well, we have new forumer now, like windy 1974 with some sensible interesting opinion here, learning and still learning. You guys are definitely funny with those new pop up words holland lao sai, lol...not that boring agreed to disagreed on the ongoing of harta share price

Laosai king, lol

Yup...all gloves manufacturers with their shareholders will be getting their bankruptcy notice soon....lol

Thank you for reminding the one way ticket to Holland holding harta shares, lol... agreed to disagreed....it is I Me Myself know well my investment fund, shares portfolio

Goin to timbuktu in the coming days is another story...like I said harta no nincoompoop with more than 30 years in the industry and shareholders is definitely not deadlog handling their share portfolio

Purchased harta shares day one was due to its good reputation, follow up by the pandemic time of humangous profits was the perks plus the bonus shares plus the consistent dividend along the way was the attraction to stay...simple as it is for small potato long term investor

Long term shareholders holding those couple of times of bonus shares as well, neednt explained further on the gains upon selling/ buying besides the perk price of rm20 plus during those good old days...yup long term shareholder definitely are at loss looking the price zooming down now...lol

Long term investors short term investors...in the end of the day it is all bout the wealth accumulation consistent dividends received throughout the years from a good fundamental company..neednt announce to the world how one work around their share portfolio their gains, short term or long term

Guys, I am just a naive sentimental investor under FIRE movement, no intention to encourage anyone to buy or sell. Just my 2 cents opinions on a respected darling shares in my portfolio as a long term shareholder. Just recently took part in the forum for leisure learning among you experts out there in the shares market. Lots of learning indeed

You guys are talking as if harta is the only one stand alone company that faces problem during economy downturn. Supply demand cost hike labor issues are the headaches for all the industries worldwide, even the mighty big China. Harta is no newbies in handling all these problems, it is all bout surviving the downturn and face head on the ongoing competition. My bet still on Harta though not down to my last underwear...lol just within my investment fund lol....

Off from KLCI, noted. Labour issue with Brightway, court case noted...by the way what is it to do with Hartalega. The main point here, is Harta off the map of the glove industry when it is assumed to be off the KLCI soon??? Is Harta profit down to RM1 like the predicted share price as quoted by you guys out there. Peak price of RM20s is a extraordinary time making gigantic profit during the occurance of the pandemic for the first time for both harta and the shareholders. During IPO, the company operate as usual, went through the up and down of operation cost hike along the years then move to peak time and then down as of today, same as all the industries struggling during economy downturn. We are talking bout across the board here in the share market, red most of the days, no big winners for all. Shareholders favor good  fundamental long financially stable company with a great management behind it. Harta has proven well its performance since its inception in 1988 even before the IPO up to now with good balance sheet and return to investors. To be able to withstand and overcome the big hurdles now, i will just leave it to the intelligent investors out there on their decision of investing their hard earned cash.

Great, we have another sensible investor here Medusa in our discussion,  agree to disagree in the forum now.  Like  I said, shareholders and harta bosses are no nincoompoop in their decision making during this bad market condition. No doubt we all know the market is down, lower asp with supply more than demand. We are talking bout the economies of scale concentrating on one major location. During this difficult period, of course those small factories will be closed to save cost,  transfer the much needed fund to operate the main major location. The management is no deadlog, when the going gets tough, the tough gets goin....apply to shareholder as well. Whether it is a temporary closed down or not, we may just pose the question in the coming AGM.

Khatulistiwa, though i do not really understand all your lengthy comments here.. dont be dismayed, you still have your hundred over thousands of wealth, not down to your last underwear, lol...cheer up, like harta we are all survival of the fittest disregard the up and down in the stock market which is beyond our control, every tomorrow is a blessing, life is not just moving around the stock market.

No comparison when it comes to china mass production, quality wise is also another consideration to look into ...please keep in mind supply and demand work hand in hand...US is one of the biggest market, look at the trade between China and US, the ongoing in Taiwan, how stable the trade between these two major big powers so far. We are weighing in lots of uncertainties lots of possibilties lots of opportunities here...time will tell. A very long time indeed looking at the condition of the market now. I trust harta is ready for all these in the coming days, surviving the hardship and maintaining its position in the market.

Bosses and shareholders of harta are no nincoompoop in their decision making looking at the unfavourable market condition now. Still goes back to survival of the fittest.

Yup..those investors only look at their every quarter dividend including the latest humangous amount in their account during all those years of investment  plus the bonus shares plus the extraordinary shares profit made during the peak of RM20 plus, it is indeed a saddening journey for all the investors all those years.

Thumb up Mini2021....we are in a public forum, not a forum of  managing our shares portfolios to accumulate wealth.  It is a forum of agree to disagree on maintaining/buying/selling harta shares based on facts figures, black and white supporting articles, history and background of the company, not creating noise picking up from the air the numbers and news.

Investing fallacy No 2:  Influenced by the "noise" on your investment decision. Always invest based on fundamental.

It is I Me Myself shares portfolio. In the end of the day I am looking at the total value of my diversified investment fund, still as good as before with harta still kicking and alive, dividend received consistently since day one.

Dearly me, what makes you think shareholder not selling at RM20 plus during peak time. Otherwise manouvering the figures of the portfolio will not exist in each long term shareholders vocabulary.  Long term shareholders are no deadlog, otherwise they wont called themselves as long term investors investing their hard earned cash in a shares portfolio for long term accumulation of wealth.  Cut off losses is when the company goin down under with no fundamental good financial background, not able to survive at all during the market bad times.... is there any news harta closing shop or harta is the one and only company suffering during the overall bad economy. It is red across the board every now and then in the shares market, it is either you retired from investing shares, looking at the devaluation of our saving with our currency continue rolling downhill or  stay invested, hoping at least  maintain our value of wealth in the coming days.

Couple of cents dividend every quarter or worst case scenario yearly, lama lama jadi bukit. Intelligent investors out there no dead log, shares are and up to investors to manouvre around the figures. This is of course provided the company is still kicking and alive with good financial background to survive long term. Survival of the fittest long term, guys

Why not invest/stay invest in Harta as it is still part of a respected darling stock of the investors' portfolio with lots of possible positive outcome in the future. Setting a glove business is no tomdicknharry job, you can see the exits of those new players. As for the market shares seized by the china players, with the big global powers infighting/wars..time will tell in competition wise. The up and down in supply demand, it is a disposable essential healthcare product with ongoing needs globally continuously. Fittest of the survival, guys...ready to roll in full speed when the time come in the coming days...probably long but still worth the wait, stay invested in the shares. There is no guarantee in share investment, we can only bet (not like god of gambler though, lol) based on the fundamental, that is why we only invest within our tabung melabur, not down to our last underwear, lol.

I think intelligent investors out there are not all the sorts of FOMO, all in type...it still goes back to fundamental of investment. The fundamental of Harta is a open book,  year to year performance report with solid financial background. As for the coming days, companies all across the board globally are facing tough time weather through hardship of cost hike, esg, competition etc, not just Harta.  For me the small potato shareholder, the main point of my investment is long term sustainable return. Time will tell, survival of the fittest. I maybe wrong or otherwise, in the end of the day it is only my non god of gambler investment fund, not daily monitoring looking at the number greet bye bye to earth heart attack fund, lol. YOLO guys.

Shares in my time capsule, definitely not flying to timbuktu with the ongoing in the shares market now, lol

Day one 2008, passed through the norm, peak price and the low price now with cost of investment recovered long time ago. Not much affected by the up and down coz no god of gamblers like you guys making big bucks short term, lol.

Shares held since day one....up and down dividend bonus shares, this one respected darling shares has definitely contributes to my retirement fund so far. Even under such market condition, still surviving with dividend received as of to date, it is definitely a keeper in my long term investment portfolio. Being top spot in the industry of a essential healthcare product and staying resilient throughout the years, lots of possibility ahead with the global uncertainties, chances of war between china taiwan with the involvement of US in addition to the ukraine russia ongoing war, ongoing pandemic/endemic monkeypox etc.  Time will tell.
