AmInvestment Bank is forecasting the FBM KLCI to end 2020 at 1,670 points, saying a catalyst for a market rerating next year would come from, among others, a play on the ringgit driven by events such as FTSE Russell retaining Malaysia in the World Government Bond Index (with the next review in March 2020); a steep rise in crude oil prices given that Malaysia is a net exporter of oil and gas (O&G); and an end to the easing cycle with only another 25bps cut in the overnight policy rate by Bank Negara in 2020.

“In terms of sector, we are ‘overweight’ on banks, consumer, O&G and utilities.

Our top picks are Malayan Banking Bhd, Tenaga Nasional Bhd, RHB Bank Bhd, Westports Holdings Bhd, Kossan Rubber Industries Bhd, Serba Dinamik Holdings Bhd, DRB-Hicom Bhd, MMC Corp Bhd, MBM Resources Bhd and Guan Chong Bhd,” the firm says in a Dec 12 note.

Political instability is the main factors of the bearish mode. And MAYBANK is the only counter in my portfolios that are in negative position. Old Ma should give up his throne for a better Malaysia.

Well maybank is still #1 in msia..
It just need a better management to take company fwd

Posted by NavinShah > 2019-12-31 13:10 | Report Abuse

Yes, Now Maybank is No 1 bank in Malaysia but things can change in a blink of an eye. Political leaders and directors are hungry for power and money. How to have good management in Malaysia is not possible.

Posted by stocksyndicate > 2019-12-31 15:55 | Report Abuse

Political dictates the well being of country economy. Foreign funds are bigger sellers and only a change of leadership will bring back prosperity and confidence. MAYBANK are majority own by the government.

...Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) has issued its revised policy document on anti-money laundering/counter financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) and targeted financial sanctions (TFS), which will take effect tomorrow (Jan 1, 2020)....
No idea how effective is all the laws and guidelines, for sure it added extra works on reporting institutions. Perhaps should have a law requires all authorities to disclose annually on enforcement actions taken as well as outcomes achieved and cases remain outstanding to make a better country.

SARS-LIKE OUTBREAK SUSPECTED IN WUHAN
BEIJING • Chinese experts are investigating an outbreak of a respiratory illness in the central city of Wuhan that some have likened to the 2002-2003 outbreak of Sars (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome).

The city's health commission said in a statement yesterday that 27 people had fallen ill with a strain of viral pneumonia, seven of whom were in serious condition. However, the health commission said the cause of the outbreak was still unclear and called on citizens not to panic.

Maintain NEUTRAL. The modest growth outlook coupled with rising asset quality and interest rate risks prevented us to be more bullish on banks; this is despite attractive valuations, trading near -2SD to both its 5-year and 10-year mean P/B.

However, for long-term investors who favour sector exposure, we advise to adopt a selective stock picking strategy.

Our preferred pick is Maybank (TP: RM9.05) given its above-average dividend yield of 6-7%
