Got several candidates for possible privatisation but don't know when the major shareholders will make the move. You must have deep pocket and patience. My first success was MAA (made over 70% gain), second was TA Enterprise (30% gain) and this month FGV (only 10% gain).

@ Jonathan, SCR minimum offer price has to be 95 sen because in the offer document they have to state that it is at a premium over the highest market price in the last 12 months. But RM1 would appear to be more appealing figure. If the RM1 offer price is not acceptable to the minority shareholders and they make noise about it then the offer price would be likely be revised upwards to RM1.10 because they don't want the privatisation to fail.

It's a SCR lah, LTAT not buying, go buy a copy of The Edge Weekly and read properly. In a SCR the minority shareholders vote whether to accept the selective capital repayment (SCR) which requires 75% yes votes. If the SCR is approved by the minorities Boustead will pay out to all shareholders except LTAT. Boustead will then be 100% owned by LTAT.

Once the announcement is made the market will trade at about 5% below the offer price. If the offer price is 80 sen, the market price will be around 76 Sen. If the offer price is RM4.50 ........ hahahaha.

Madam Leno, my company is in a dilemma, we bought 580,000 Insas at 0.65 and recently received a mere RM11,600 as dividend. Our problem is we are expanding our business, buying assets for our company. This leaves us with insufficient cash to take up our rights entitlement. What would be your advice. Our company thank you in advance.

In RSS you can't short sell unless there's borrowed shares available and has been deposited with Bursar's Securities Borrowing & Lending (SBL) Central Agency. In the case where Insas shares owners have purchased via margin and therefore pledged the shares to the broker/investment bank, the latter based on the margin agreement may have the right to lend Insas shares to the short sellers.

In Regulated Short Selling (RSS) there's an uptick rule where short sellers are not permitted to short sell at the buyers bid price, they would need to place their short sell bids above the buyers bid price and wait for buyers to buy off them. It would therefore make logical sense that after putting in their short sell bids they would promote that Insas is a good buy.

Ya, ya, ya, still before ex-rights date the lending banks/brokers would require the shares shorted be bought back or else how would the beneficiaries of the pledged shares get their rights entitlement.

Dear Insas comrades, I have done a bit of research on the short selling position of Insas (open position around 5 million at end of today). The lenders of the Insas shares to the short sellers will not be entitled to the rights issue (and free warrants) unless they request the shares loaned be returned to them before the ex-rights entitlement date. In order for the short sellers to return these 5 million shares they would have to buy back at whatever market price.

I am not clear on the rules of regulated short selling (RSS) but it seems that short sellers can keep on shorting so long as someone is willing to lend their shares. And the short sellers need not have to buy back to cover the short position unless the lender request bank the loaned shares. Any experts on RSS here?

For the past two weeks short selling of Insas shares have capped its upside. Don't know what's the game plan of the short sellers. It has accumulated to over 5 million shares. In order to short sell someone has loaned the shares and earned interest from the lending. Who is this lender?

All the time rights could be sold to anyone even in those days when hard copy of the Provisional Allotment Form had to be split into broad lots before selling. At that time excess rights application was only confined to existing shareholders but this restriction has since ceased.
