duke21 Investors must think long-term which will result in substantial appreciation of the stock. The stock has become speculative with speculators treating the counter like a casino. Living examples of long-term stocks today Nestle, Kuala Lumpur Kepong and BAT. 30/01/2018 11:42
Jack Ma sucker should listen to me and take profit at 1.70. Still lofty valuation. Stingy on dividend. Pathetic growth , still can't leverage on Actis Group.
@nickengk... If you notice... PBB most of their terminals come from others especially paysys... So what gift mentioned should be correct... They gaining most market share through this acquisition...
Payment service provider GHL Systems Bhd has proposed to raise up to RM86.96m via private placement to third party investors to be identified later. The proceeds raised will be used for working capital purposes. (Financial Daily)
Problem with this counter is weak retailer... All want fast money... But nothing wrong with that... So far this Company still performing accordingly and now have better exposure in foreign country...
Hold on to your shares guys. Q3 results will blowout 1) Consolidation of Paysys +RM 2mil 2) Absence of M&A Paysys Cost +RM1mil 3) TPA profit increase from abolishment of GST increase consumer spending +RM1mil Q3 Min profit 9-10mil
This stock should follow the footstep of DSONIC, PRESBHD, MYEG soon. Overpriced as prospect is overblowned as usual by the IB. INITIATE STRONG SELL at fair price of 0.72 @ P/E 25x & P/B 1.4x. Current price of 1.60 and P/E 56x is excessive.
They r an established company, making good profit but they dont declare dividend. So retail investor have to depend on capital gain, but with that need to have liquidity, unfortunately right now there isnt much trading volume.
