In the context of things this equity investment by GenM sends the wrong optics and the financial cost of it is not too significant ….as some will be used to pay bank loan and GenM will see some benefit of this. The key driver still worth watching how Empire Resort is performing …..Can anyone in this forum shed some light ? Is it improving and likely to be profitable in 2023?

On all this nice to have solid counters like Gamuda and Yinson to name a couple …with good governance ethics on the polar opposite we had Serba who pretty much had discounted share placements when the CEO wanted funding for his expensive holidays 😂😂

On the positive side ….think of the psychological side of this action particularly the timing….. price was rallying in anticipation of the results so best time to correct the price is now. Insiders will buy the shares the results are likely to be very good and price will rally again …..this time perhaps after 25 Feb! What the foreign investors make of this game who knows some of the institutions are very touchy on governance matters and this action may be costly. We also have Taurx in all this which big boss can use to activate price rise! The game goes on. Just sharing my thoughts!

Insiders pushed the price to above 5 and than dumped it knowing this announcement will be made …..there is lot,of insider dealing in this counter as there is lack of governance. This is not the first time! We had with Taurx …price shot up and there was massive selling of share in relation to cruise business not owned by Genting)

Run by crooks….can’t put it any other way. In companies that have good governance investment is only made if it is going to be beneficial to shareholders ….in this company the ceo and directors are not independent…that why we have the highest paid CEO….in an underperforming company that has delivered negativd shareholder returns over a considerable period …not withstanding CV19

Not surprised at all the price has retraced below 5. Let’s see what happens over next month or so. Normally when company is seen as a recovery stock with key indicators being bullish, you expect upward trend. With Genting nobody knows, this is because of the nature of shareholders. I recall few years when indicators improved and price rallied major shareholder dumped shares to cover losses from cruise business. After all share price is dependent on buyers and sellers if you dump shares in the open market the share price will fall no matter how good the underlying business may be. We had example of this with Tesla when shareholder sold shares to buy Twitter. This remains my biggest concern with Genting …..lack of proper governance.

Truly worthy performance would be for the share price to hit 5.50 plus before annual results …after all share price was 7 RM during 2019 before Covid hit.

Let’s hope the positive momentum is maintained and it is not a false dawn as previously. Many positive factors in play proof of pudding is ultimately in share price performance which can be impacted by insiders dumping shares.

Let’s be clear foreign investment has very little impact on share price …. M OST of the telling trades are local. Foreign asset allocation is low other than historical investment. Foreign investors have high threshold for governance which is a concern….when ceo earns more than CEO of Rolls Royce very complex aeronautical engineering company.

We are looking for excuses and rationale for Genting not doing well and conditions that will help the share price. Quite frankly so many positives have already happened and still the share price actually reversed from depth of CONDITIONS that were very bad. So there is no logic for lack of performance other than major shareholder, governance and lack marketing of the company….we expect CEO to be more active selling the company to shareholders unless you own 44 % of shares so no incentive what so ever. This is is an issue. I am big investor in the shares but patience after 2 years is running thin. In Developed markets proactive companies share Capital Markets day when they explain the actions being taken to the shareholders and market.

When will people realise improved business performance has nothing to do with share price movement particularly in Malaysian stock market. We know business performance has recovered well…and tourist numbers etc all up significantly, Chinese visitors up, political risk low, all other noted reasons for poor performance have been largely addressed…though debt levels are high. Cost control could be improved but major shareholder not concerned , governance is poor….a real catalyst is needed to lift performance …otherwise it will remain in doldrums ….

Genting on Bull Run! Really. If this is the Bull than I rather have tortoise. Bull run is when stock price moves more than 20% . Genting peaked around 11 in 2010/2011 ever since than even before CV hit it has been on down trend….we are all waiting for the trend to reverse. There are many resistance levels, it struggling to reach 4.70, than it will be 5.0 than 5.35 and so on..at each level there are many sellers…some playing the margin game and others who have held for some time …Genting need a catalyst.

Pang72…Genting has been in downtrend since 2010 ….it all depends on how you view the trend line and over what period! At its peak the price was 11+ and has come down before CV struck and ofcourse CV hit hard we know that….but the poor management performance precedes that….let’s hope we can turn the trend and benefit from business growth in the newer markets and the casino bet on Taurx! Let’s hope that sooner rather than later …!

Michael Chan …..44% is owned by ParkView Mgt which I believe is boss holding, actual 24 other main insituional investors account for only 13 % …of which Vangaurd holds 2.5% and Blackrock 1.8% otjers make up,the balance!

RISK 8888 there is a reason….it is private brokerage company! 44 % plus holdings and friends who don’t question anything …is a major governance issue…..share price is not driven by performance of the company but demand / supply of shares in the market …these can be controlled of you hav every big shareholding. Companies generally with small ownership holdings do much better ….than ones with large holdings and same management! No new blood or thinking ..personal,bank account.

It is good to to be optimistic but not at the cost of being unreasonable. I am supporter of Genting but feel the management are simply not with it ……the downturn began from 2010 …and since has been hit by external events like CV. But the downturn began much earlier. Why? Simple, the company is nit run like a proper shareholder company as the owner still holds large chuck over 40%! Therefore company is own by account, rewards himself with highest CEO payouts despite huge under performance ….his pay is more than some of the big international business ..eg take for example Rolls Royce U.K. aero engine manufacturer …a very technical company….yet the brilliant ceo earns less than half of Gentin ceo! Also buying companies such as Empire with suspect valuation….these are serious Governace issues nobody is willing to tackle! Let’s hope we remain lucky woth TauRx as I can’t see these guys marketing the company.

I hear so much illogical stuff….like Chinese tourists will make a difference, flushing out weak shareholders, window dressing, keep buy on weakness ….! The reality the share price is based on supply and demand more sellers than buyers irrespective of underlying business performance ..the price will drop. Here lies the problem, who is selling all the time? This is typical of share ownership with one single shareholder….most institutions keep,for long term investment….. so this constant selling is on instruction for sure ….

What happens to Dow has no impact on Genting share price if it had we would be well north of 5!

We are all waiting for long overdue uplift. Some folks here say what a recovery from 403 to now….but the price should not have gone to 403 in the first place measured against any metrics and forward outlook….which makes me wonder what sort of shareholders in play. The foreign institutional investors have small allocation to Malaysia ..and they are proper medium to longterm investors. In Malaysia we don’t have sufficient stats…if you go through local institution holdings the insurers funds under management but have small amounts allocated to Genting.

As an investor I want Genting to do well more importantly the performance and growth prospects should reflect the share price. Whilst share price is moving upwards but still does not reflect forward potential worth all metrics suggesting. Genting is under valued! Why is this ? One reason is the management are not very with it in terms of communicating to the market this could be because large shareholding by one owner ..not motivated …jsut watch U.K. s Rolls Royce the engine and defence company capital market presentation the CEO Erginblic was fantastic total command of the business and share price flies and will do more …this is lacking in Genting….Taurx is the real catalyst thst is needed …even here no updates no information etc…jsut lethargy

IMCK, the price never goes back to NTA….we know that….Genting shareholders are not your average investors …..first of all big chunk is held by insiders than we have many small holders who sell for small gains. Insiders need funds for other needs. A huge catalyst is needed to get Genting on major uptrend. Good Results not sufficent,
