Sudden volume + bloodbath, guess who?

Respect to you for that cerubic. I too hot blooded cannot tahan these trolls. Should heed my own advise and stay away for the time being. Karma will do its job.

The only PM that was done was analysis by Terence, his is the author and he has rights on where he wants to share his research. If he doesn't want to share with you, then maybe reflect on your own behaviour abit la.

Also not everyone everyday sit on the side line only and dont buy, buy d where got money to keep buying? You buy too little is it? Or gambler for life?

@khatu This may not be the lowest point and no one knows where is it. Rebound may not come soon. Don't hold your breath. If you're holding your breath waiting for Harta to rebound, you may want to consider releasing some of it so that it's not so difficult to bear.

@cerubic some people are just aholes that goes around commenting about others' wife. Rude, no manners, and unethical. And then say other people sensitive. Real psychotic person, worse than Natsuko (which is a tall order to fill on its own).

Didn't comment for a few hours then sorok? Find friends in real life if you need them, not random stranger online that has different investment opinion as you. I've been here since Harta fell from the top to Rm6. I do my research before investing and don't have small balls and heart like some other people.

I also don't measure my investment result through daily share price gain, just FYI if its not clear enough.

If you got something productive to say then say it, if got constructive criticism then go ahead and state it, if not then keep my name out of your dirty mouth and fingers.

Not just courage khatu, patience too. Just got to wait out the turbulence if you believe in your research. But don't do nothing while waiting, do continue to keep track and be as objective as possible, set metrics and benchmarks for review to prevent biasness. The recent quarter results was fine for me, thought it is stabilising, but guess its not good enough for EPF. Let's see what happens next, ready bullets for when TG qr out.

When a counter's share price lost it's sanity, so does majority of the people commenting. Imma stay away from here where there's no constructive info to preserve my own sanity. Bang_miskin & Cerubic, hope to see you around when we have better days.

cheers cerubic, hope to see you here to celebrate when Harta is doing better. 2 years, or 3 years, or 5 years, who knows.

I think bang miskin meant it as satire. Those chasing serba & sapura though, hmm.

back to the DMs @terence :)

@terence775 @bang_miskin I thought the revenue drop was sort of expected since they can't sell into US which means they are mainly competing with China suppliers directly. I assumed the higher net profit is that they figured a way to cut cost to survive this turbulence, which is pretty good. I wouldn't mind Harta's revenue going down for the time being in order to bring back better net profit. It is really not the time to go for high volume with the current supply demand dynamics.

@Natsuko nobody said it was good, stop twisting words. It's NP improved from previous quarter, overall results didnt slide much since 2 quarters ago as well. Pakai mata bila baca, pakai otak bila cakap.

Yeah Supermax's QR is surprising. But TG will be accounting for cukai makmur next QR if im not wrong. Hoping for a good gross profit at least, that will be a good indication.

@i3lurker not everyone trade as full time job. Accept other perspective and way of life. Shit can be objective at times and subjective at other times.

As of 10.15am, it is error 404: bloodbath not found. If you ask me to wait till end of day/week to see bloodbath, I will ask you why not wait another year or two to see green sticks. :)

quiet*
Not commenting much because I'm trying to learn good english.

How low/high can it go - million dollar question. Gotta ask bomoh. If no have bomoh contact, better not try to guess, invest responsibly, stretch date line longer. Look at the industry outlook in combination with the company's performance in the industry.

on top of what bang miskin said, if you frequent this forum, make sure you dont get emotionally affected by the jokers that did not do any research whatsoever and are just screaming from their crack.

Its a bliss to invest with money i dont need. Look at these jokers screaming in pain for others' period.

bye khatu, i hope you dont come back.

@cerubic, unless they sound like our friend khatu here, then its all good. If someone follows khatu's call, then its 100% on them, not khatu.

@fortunefire, personal advise, please try to refrain from giving buy/sell call. You'd never know what people do with your comment, last thing you want is someone going suicidal after going contra based on your call and things didnt go your way.

@Destiny agreed, I believe we've found EPF's floor. They are not willing to throw below NAPS, slowly passing stocks to retailers at the 1.6~1.8 range.

"@Cerubic Nothing can justify dumping of 7% shareholding in the open market in 1 week's time. This is clearly a heinous deliberate attack on the stock price."

@matklse, really triggered my curiousity what is this manouver by EPF about. I have so many questions.
If EPF has no ill intention and this is not harta's fair value, they should try to recover at a much better price:
- Did EPF tried negotiating with the owner? Is that why the company is passing a sbb resolution?
- Did EPF tried negotiating with other IBs? Does no one want to buy Harta in large volume despite pricing it at average price of say ~RM2?

If EPF has no ill intention, but the fair value of Harta is this low, what is it that the open market is not seeing? As much as they have dumped, retailers have picked up, are we all going to lose money while the Kuans and EPF keep quiet?

So many information gaps, don't know why EPF did this. Is it to go below 5% urgently so they can transact with another party in private placement? Does the new buyer dont want to be known?

See?

He/she don't really share any opinion. Just rumors and fear mongering. Never anything solid. Unfortunately, even a broken clock is correct for twice in a day, and we happen to be in the time where their nonsense became fact.

@Cerubic, nah I will never buy dnex because of that trash of a person, full of manipulation. Watch for the other one named rr88 also.

LOL wtf is Indian fortune latest brief, khatu pulls the most random shiz from everywhere and put them into a comment.

Side note, for those interested to hear different perspective, check out FIRL Guys on YouTube, they've made a video on glove sector recently and the info coverage is pretty good.

Educated myself more on the China Taiwan tension, bang_miskin is probably right. US sent 5 more congress members to Taiwan and China responded with more drills. I think China is focusing on their property debt issue more now than actually getting Taiwan. Nevertheless, I personally don't think China will last long in throwing glove price down, let's see.

@Raymond look at where TG's cash reserve gone, share buy back at high price.

100mil units changed hands in the morning but no 10% drop. We may have found the floor (or at least very close to it). Either EPF stopped dumping or the 1.6 range is the first solid support.

LOL khatu, please stop. Let people talk normally.

@Cerubic, I share the same sentiment as bang_miskin, we have been whacked so many times that we really question where is the bottom. Every calculations and past trends can be thrown out of the window, it just doesnt make sense for Harta to be trading at this price with the latest financials that were just announced coupled with how the company has been run successfully in the past.

We're trading at ~16PE and merely 20sens above NAPS. Soon it will be cheaper to just close shop and realise the NAPS rather than continue business. Yeah, we may have seen one of the lowest EPS in 10 years, but to judge that the company will die and whack down the share price, that is just absurd.

If Harta is going to use SBB to acquire the remaining 200mil units from EPF, then I hope the share reaches RM1 or lower for the time being to reduce the sbb cost. I don't mind suffering a bit more short term for a better long term result.

EPF has another 220m units to throw as per today's disclosure. They cease being shareholder when they hold below 170m units, guess they are still holding above 170m units. Wonder how many they sold on 12, 15, and 16 Aug.

@bang_miskin
"Decided against it since I don't get back much anyway"
Pretty much why I'm still holding as of now. Will most likely trim if Harta ever rebound to RM3 though, been averaging down to not suffer as big of a % loss.

"6 months ago, I thought RM4.30 was the bottom. Just two weeks ago, I don't think it is possible that it will breached below RM2."
LOL, we thought so, ahh that was already so far away. Nothing makes sense right now, but looking from another perspective, sense depends on what we know. Maybe we know too little. It is all a gamble anyway. Just dont gamble with money you cant lose.

@GlovesOff, never say you cannot comment. Using back your example, what does that make you? Someone that comment poorly about anothers' wife in front of them to test if their love is unwavering?

LOL bang_miskin, long term investors in glove counter looks like gambler now xD

110million units today... my god

Based on last few days' trend, major dumping in the morning and then walling in the afternoon to prevent rebound. Let's see. Gain/loss out of the picture (makes no sense for me to sell now - cant do much with amount recovered), intrigued to see where this goes. Live and learn.

Yeah I wouldn't rely on "tomorrow", it has been a baddd few days. Announcement for 10 August just out, EPF only sold 5.1mil units out of the 32mil units traded. They still have plenty of chips to throw, question is, how low are they willing to go? Selling each share at below NAPS?

@Cerubic too bad they do not have virtual meeting that I can multitask listen to. Let me know if they share anything interesting & new.

32mil, 23mil, and then 48mil shares traded on 10, 11, and 12 August respectively. For each share sold, there was a buyer. Another 27mil units changed hands this morning, how long will this insanity last?

Wow no sharp rebound even at below RM2, can't say I'm not surprised at the slightest. If EPF is the one doing this, why not negotiate a deal with another institutional investor behind the scenes? Dumping shares in the open markets in the millions (units) for multiple days, that's crazy. We'll see if it is really EPF when the announcement comes next week.

Relax Cerubic, nothing we can change by commenting much here. Just share your opinion and walk away if no one wants to engage in a constructive conversation. If a random stranger wants to rely on i3 comments for their investment decision, well they have a hard lesson to learn anyway. That's what I've learnt from hanging around in this forum.

@charles average price @4.5, so it's about 50% now when only looking solely at capital. But after taking into account the huge dividend payouts in 2021, i think its less than that, lazy to quantify exactly.

Dropping another 50% means lower than NTA. Unless we're suspecting fraudulent reporting, i don't think that we have any indication about that...

There was windfall tax, just unlikely to have another round this year given that there's no more "windfall" for glove sector this year. Some people are just a bit slow on the brain.

There's no windfall tax if there's insufficient profit to be taxed, unless the government literally wants to kill these companies.

Observatory's comment on long term investors are quite true, maybe one should review their positions if you dont fit the description.

Also on the supply-demand equilibrium, I'm pretty confident some form of decommissioning would happen with so many new companies rushing in during the glove mania. I guess we shall see.
