Interesting. Most suitable for passive investors wanting exposure to momentum stocks. Beats buying and monitoring the basket of 50 stocks individually. Perfect for the newbie with not so much capital. Some confusion of expense fees, is it total 0.66%?

Annual Management Fee 0.50% per annum of the NAV of the Fund.
Annual Trustee Fee 0.04% per annum of the NAV of the Fund.
Annual Index License Fee Minimum of USD10,000 per annum or 0.12% per annum of the average daily assets under management, whichever is higher.

Rev 138,650 | Loss 33,160
Looks like still sinking, even lower rev than prev qtr.

@metaverse has a point or two, but comments all over the place on non-contextual stocks/matters.

I agree, lots of promises from YTLP, plenty hot air to bid baloon; company operations do have sound fundamentals, capable management in place. However not much in way of numbers to match, no great track record.

Question remains what value this stock will return to minority shareholders, being highly controlled by YTL parties. Skim yields off rising PER, that's pretty much it. Enjoy the roller coaster up...and down.

@amilytay @c328
One needs to approach Ai cautiously. Yet to see any initiative from SCICOM, in fact they could enhance their ticker quality by putting out a professional Nasdaq-style quarterly slide deck.

Next report due late May'24 for qtr ending Mar'24
One of few counters paying dividends every quarter, pretty decent yield ~7.4%(TTM). Price upper bound by 1.12~1.16 levels. Still pretty decent PER 13, not bid up by speculators. Stable, slow and steady.

Hmmm, me thinks to go in at this point. O&G is on a deficit supply capacity situation, so up is the way to go. Yinson is about the only O&G MY counter to still dribble sideways, most others already start moving up. Seems to be bogged down by selling, KWAP, KWSP? Not sure, but any biggies selling either bought long way back 2022 or have other needs for funds. There is a cost basis of about 2.44~2.55 (2024) so no one is selling unless running away scared. Trading day 26APR22024 likely smaller fish selling off more than the big boys. A few sessions more, this stock is likely upward 2.60 range and beyond. If 2.30 breaks down, a visit to 2.10~2.00, probably short lived. Anything lower is going to be all hell break loose situation, back to pandemic levels.

Did a bit of deep dive into their website, after all sweet 2.5b song playing out on TheEdge. Turns out a rather organic grown Chai Leng Park company with flavours of Thailand and Taiwan largely run by accountants. True Penang people company, even got mention Sui Wah ( I thisnk this was supermarket at one time).

Very grand char-koay-teow coming into big league. Sadly website very basic, never pay much attention to PR.

The company is far from a multinational standard, lot of work. Expect organic pain growing into the Billion ringgit club. Never pay decent dividend, all goreng from EPS and revenues. Not inspired. Got good analyst call from Kenanga.

Hard luck everyone! Tiger survives 9.50 support for today. It's a pretty deep trough to next level, I spy and parking some ammo for 9.10/9.20 and even lower to 8.90 if the sellers are determined.

Tiger is in many local institution wallet, they will sapu more than sellers can dish out...

Agreed 1.08 price point places this counter as undervalued. Low participation by inst funds; KWSP & Eastspring listed 2%+ ea with most concentration to insiders. Drivers for higher prices upward of RM1.80:
- more institutional take up
- harnessing Ai into their offerings

For now, one of few counters paying consistent dividend (high) every quarter. So entry at 1.08 is a good deal for long term accumulation & compounding.

@Good123:
tak mau kasi jatuh hehe

Bagus! now we know VT pain point for now is 0.50, swing up to 0.6xx; plebs be guided accordingly. Ride this wave of their embarkment exercise. Looking at the weekly chart, the initial dump from high 0f 0.90 was also down to about 0.50. Then they steady the ship back to sub-high 0.77 before proceed another sell-off down to 0.50 again. Let's see how high this next wave up can go; me thinks lower than 0.77 and current 0.61...

@AlTugauw you are spamming rhetoric about palestine; all your post list in profile is total 20 items, all about this subject. Pls keep to the spirits and decorum here. This is not a geo-political discussion. I am sure many here are sensitive and know about moral issues.

Goin on a rhetoric in particular about that offending country, if you use some part of that unused mind of yours, you'll discover many things are intertwined, and that the many comforts of modern living YOU enjoy has some touches as well. You would be unwilling to go back to cave days, because that's where you will end up if doing a thorough and detailed evaluation.

@FlexiJ, stop spamming all about some Mrs Valdez; I checked profile, some 25 posts, all same subject, no value add to discussions. This thread, it is nice informative and stick to subject of YTLP.

YTLP is a gem of a company that stands out and shines as a true global player-to-be. They have built a credible foundations on power generation, now branching into data centers and green power exports. Makes for a formidable entity that's a gem on the KLSE. Much potential in future. Nice to have will be consistent dividends and good quarterly slide decks from the company itself. KLSE sorely needs companies like this.

Not exciting qtr results; 7 sen dividend, padan with price. Last year was 16.5sen div?

BJFOOD had in recent year embarked on outlet expansion. Another round of impairment losses to close unprofitable outlets? Wooing an irrational crowd bent on misguided boycott is an impossible goal. The attrition is permanent for many segments. Gives rise to competitor opportunity, and if well executed will continue to eat away market-share.

reported RM42.6m loss, of which RM10.5m is one off from disposal of Jollibean interest. Still the question remains for the remaining ~RM32m. This means BJFOOD is non-profitable operations as is. Sales need to pick up to tip this loss over; perhaps some painful cost cutting may yield some profitability. Still out in the woods, wait for next qtr results before making any conclusions.

I agree with @speakup comments; Berjaya VT company, so "kind" to investors at large. The effects of boycott still remains to fully be priced into the numbers. Previous reports BF have expanded new outlets at many, capex usually 2~3 yr turnaround now will be further impacted by boycott. The situation also impacting SB internationally. Better to be sidelines till it is clear the numbers with dividends payout shift.

BJFood opened many new stores, may need some time to earn back those capex. However on back of higher turnover, reporting markedly lower profit is a red-flag. Not logical, since they've raised prices (which incidentally may have crossed barrier threshold for many consumers) yet unable to mitigate currency and inflationary increases? This alone points toward some serious shifts in price/profit model...past history off the table? Or is it typical shuffling around?

Personally I stopped/reduced Sb consumption, taste and quality gone down, also the service is erratically different in various outlets. I visited one outlet and ordered some pastry, requested for regular cutlery only to be told not available. Well moments later adjacent table got non-plastic cutlery. Their service quality is at whims of the staff, too playful at times as observed. I think structurally they better shape up.

86/87 is fundamental value, lower makes it a good buy. Likely will drift lower on overall weak sentiment. Base support at 72, if breaks this then it's in wilderness...

I think one cannot form a clear picture until Pavilion BJ is fully on board and revenue numbers reported, might be a while. Anyone have idea when reporting will fully include PVBJ?

price discovery in downward spiral... like someone said: Best not to try catch a falling knife.
Numbers looks fuzzy, no clear stewardship, expect low, very lows to be hit. Their management also reporting quality is very poor...so take your chances. EPS and DPS is your guide, do the maths to figure out how low it can/will go. Forget IPO numbers, semua kena goreng ady.


To be fair, the Farm Fresh brand is gaining foothold in chilled milk sector.. see it all around everywhere in Klang Valley. If the management efficiently manage and report transparently, maybe they can grow to rival market leader. Susu cap junjung still leads the way.

Quality stock, potential waiting inside. High dividend is reflective of AIMS disposal; on positive side, disposal was to facilitate onboarding partnership with DigitalBridge? This new partneship potentially opens up regional/international earnings to come. Company is well managed; PER bit on high side, could taper downside a bit. Accumulate on dips.

Bit of run-up (probably hindsight to this dividend/deal) from Nov'22. I figure any dips should find attractive bottoming at 4.50~4.75 levels. Per consensus price calls, likely to be brief on downside before recovering to current levels.

@DouglasLiu to get started with new hire in such an endeavor? Tough going I would think. Getting teamwork to work in synergy will be the bigger challenge.

US company in question is a startup, having crowd-funded their product, not really an established concern with vast experience and deep pockets. US consumer market facing mountains of inflation driven issues, not quite the boom. Stormy journey for successful completion of contract. On other hand if the product is well received, scaling production up will be challenging.

Still doubts abound in many areas.

Look at the profile of the Board of Directors, little to no Engineering/Manufacturing background at all.

Read a blog article highlighting potential of this company on purported new RM100m/yr business. Some numbers floated. The idea that a reputed US company selected a company of this profile sniffs out lots of hidden can of worms. That company probably is an outlier in EMS, since EMS is typically an engineering and manufacturing endeavor, neither of which has been evidenced for this company. In fact news items point to mainly software IT projects, most recently some banking Blockchain project in Cambodia, Enough red flags waving all around. It's well and good if they deliver, but likely window dressing goreng counter.

Based on recent comments, it is clear the price is a control by VT group, prudently advised to skirt regulatory requirements yet within the law. Still unsavory tactics. Without doubt the crown jewel in this counter is the Starbucks franchise.

Bit of speculation is only way to look at this, fundamental valuations easily matter less whenever they're up to intra-company maneuvers. 2023 price-action exhibits a point of control RM1.00. However 2022 volume profiles indicate a lower floor at 0.60, which I think will be a reasonable downside target. Simply accumulate at these lower points if you have patience, VT will surely want to reward insider EOS etc at RM1.00 levels, so a revisit definitely on the cards. The lower lows and lower highs trend continues, expect more downside. Mar qtr end results to provide headwinds.

Haha,
@KimSua .. next support level 0.575 (weak) and 2nd 0.540 (stronger)

Seems we're on same technicals. 0.575 is the peak from Feb'22 while 0.55 is a Dec'19 followed by multiple peaks throughout. These should hold. If shoots below 0.54 and remains there long then a re-think is probably prudent. Otherwise, fill your bags people, opportunity abound.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mm6bX_W6CCk listen commencing 06:00 onwards; good take on world energy

OIl and gas is set to shine in years to come, imminent shortage of processing capacity expected due to geopolitical policy focus on ESG discouraging investments in oil/gas. Reality points to ESG as another political agenda, many comments suggest renewables are simply nowhere in replacing world appetite for oil. This underinvestment will probably come to haunt everyone sometime soon.

Major shareholders pump price up for some bag-holders as they step the price in stages, need cycle down to reap some low hanging fruit. Same for all Malaysian listed companies. Armada did a high of 0.725 recently, some bag-holders bought in at 0.69 (try looking at volume profiles). Sure to have some panic sell, but many will hold on... after all the funadamentals of this counter are still good; industry outlook is shining. 2023 pattern suggests 0.59 as a major holding point, juicy liquidity for some to drive prices down to shake holders out. Perhaps a visit to 0.55 momentarily will do it. Going below 0.54 staying thereabouts may mean a new dynamic in play, time to re-strategize.

".. additional assessment (“Notice”) dated 13 July 2020 for the sum of RM1,812,506,384.64 for the year of assessment 2018 by the Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia (“IRB”) .."

There's an announcment from TNB wrt; I wonder how does this impact TNB share price? Court hearing is 19th Sep 2023.

Almost RM1B revenue FY22; preceding 2 qtr likely on track for RM1B mark this FY23. Q3'23 should cement this target achievable. Moreover full MCO pandemic recovery should already be in now. On the back of such revenue, expected they will try maintain ratio, so share price to increase and perhaps higher dividend amount. Now they declare div 6mo each, sweet if they go on to pay quarterly dividends, exceeding 50% payout ratio. Overall a good accumulate counter.

Substantial shareholder disposal thus far absorbed by market; holding 1.00 point of control (volume focus formed since Jan'23). If this does not hold, then 0.825 represents entire 2022 support zone, accumulation point. Starbucks still pretty busy, no issues etc.

concur with @TreeTopView trend is intact if viewed on weekly. Fib levels being followed, though depends where you pull the peak/low from. My fib view is derived from the major downside move 30th May 2022 till 27th Jun 2022. Looks like the play is along these technicals, bearing in mind past couple of weeks was continued outflow of foreign funds. When they return... probably onward to 13.65 the very least. For near term moves, looking to accumulate at 9.25/8.99.

The US FED is still hawkish; US inflation is sticky; labour numbers stubborn. Weighs down Asian markets somewhat.

PBA is semi social in nature since the government is at peoples mercy. Raise rates and election time payback and opposition ready to pounce. Explains why Penang has lowest rates.

I think they have made mistake, should raise rates slowly bit-by-bit over few years. IMO people there simply waste a lot of water since it is so cheap.. witnessed many places especially passion to wash car at home and at hawker centers.

One way is to raise the rates but state government can provide some form of subsidy to slowly reduce over time. At least the disparity will not be so great.

One observation, if you look back at charts over long term, dividends ex date almost always shows a significant sell-off correction. Possibly a pull-back after Mar'23 before it continues to march upward slowly. Current move may taper off 10.50?
