63 is next resistance.

highest level since Karken issue.

not reinsurance but takaful bz. MNRB name only reinsurance but their takaful bz is what is growing leaps and bounds

Etika to be injected into MNRB?
MNRB to be insurance subsidiary of Maybank?

extension period is free money for BA. no loan and no depreciation charges... almost as good as profit less OPEX

long term holders, pls buy BIMB but not for short term play as we don't know the Rights Issue impact. BIMB is strong hold for long term.

BIMB is most under rated. they grew too fast but may have capital adequacy issue soon if they keep growing at 15%. Good problem but may require a rights issue, hence the weight on the stock.

tq Niki for the insight.

Gong Xi Faa Cai... bet big on Genting and you will make a fortune.

Brent, once above 80, will be on uptrend again.

the last time #Contrarian said "quickly buy" sarcastically, price moved up to 2.60 levels... Will it happen again?

tq #beluga

After delist all the project go to major shareholder. don't need anyone to report to. now company already too messy. might as well delist like Serba Dinamik.

go see Rapid list of properties... even food court stalls are part of their asset.

woi #titan buta ka... U compare one of world largest Glove player vs Rapid. go dig hole and Bury ur head la..

BAs contract DCR is not based on oil price.

relax la. price should be btwn 0.65 to 0.75 times book. Still got money to make. enjoy.

sorry, guys. let's hope for a better week next week. anyway, it's still on uptrend technically. so let's hold on tight. The ship will sail again. Better I stay quiet. have a good weekend.

Hahaha... sorry if I JINXED BA...

finally it's not tracking Brent or Crude price based on today's market action.

for giving up control of a Bank, LTAT can't sell cheaply , and they will end up like BPlant... makan the shares back.

#aklobi... enjoy ur profits ya. I will hold on for the GO, hopefully.

if Swak wants to do anything or ask anything, it must be this time. better ask for 51% vs just 20%

consolidating at this level... once pick up steam will run.

#aklobi.... he was just being sarcastic to my post... he didn't mean it. anyway, we all respect TheContrarians view as his points are valid, too based on public info.

mtg to brief Swak tomorrow?

Few things for BNM to consider in allowing Swak to take above 50% in Affin are
1) is it better keeping Affin in LTAT or Swak
2) is it worth keeping BEA in Affin as major shareholder above 20% or allowing Swak to buy them out.
3) is it better to allow a large shareholder to restructure Affin or many shareholders and go nowhere.

with LTATs 29% and BEAs 23%, Swak will get more than 50%. the price must be attractive for BEA and LTAT to sell. or else they will be stuck for longer term. Swak will undertake to pare down to lower stake at later date once Affin is restructured and ROI improves.

MBSB and MIDF done at Price to Book of 0.8 times

BPlant & Bstd GO cost abt 1.9B to LTAT.
LTAT has abt 690M Affin. at 2.80 to 3.00 can pay off the GO Loan. Not sure if LTAT need more money to pay DV to their contributors/army.

anything below 3.00 doesn't achieve LTATs objective.

who are shareholders of Kenanga?

any deal has a chance to be terminated so if U a long term investor, it is best to trim as the price goes up and the balance for the KILL.. if the deal gets terminated, u still have the position to buy when it drops. this is simple risk management.

so harm trimming ur position a little if U had bought cheap. EPF also sold UMW before the GO was announced..

to answer why EPF selling.
If U had 1M shares bought at avg of below 2.00 wouldnt U sell at least 5% or 50K shares at 2.40 and reduce position. sell another 5% at 2.60 and so on. this is called trimming position.

Brent Oil closed very strongly. May see a good run in ALL O&G stocks.

#kmchua, don't U think SP Energy may just acquire BA at some point. they have the means and plan to go big in FPSO.

I agree with U Niki...but I think some say when Brent is high the chances of extension will be great and no issue of default by their clients.

also with new Akai can be a sweetener.

LTAT will not be able to sell the balance shares if they miss the opportunity now.

also for Swak why pay premium to buy a block just to get 20%.... on LTATs side might as well sell at higher price with control.

#contrarian, I agree what's reported is 15% but why does Swak Gov want to remain the 3rd largest shareholder when they have a "once in a life time" chance to be the largest. the sale of 15% is just 330M shares, which is not enought to pay LTATs debts.

surely there will be a deal its just at what price and will there be a GO... let's wait... no risk its a bank anyway regulated by BNM. unless u don't trust BNM than don't buy shares.

look at the Fundamentals and not where it was before.. NTA just 1.60 and we are not sure if the NTA is real as Yu plays up everything. can a property company at NTA of 1.60 trade at 29?...ini semua Gila orang punta kerja.

this stock is not even worth 50 sen. better stay away.

tq Niki

this is so scary. is this legal?

just saw page 108 of their recent Annual Report.. 1.2B worth of properties clasified as inventories but registered under JV partners name. So they paid 1.2B to their JV partner but title not registered to YNHs name. what accounting is this. can someone advice.

not Crude but Brent. sorry for the mistake.

After the slight blip last week due to margin calls, BA has resumed its uptrend. A break out above 54 will take it to new post of April 2023 high again. Crude is doing well, too, and is poised to break 80 convincingly this or next week.
