@Junichiro It's ironical that Genting dividend is non halal but Genting Chairman is a Muslim ex IGP Haniff who receives tons of millions of non halal casino monies each year. So what's the point of segegrating halal and non halal. Its meaningless.

KUALA LUMPUR (Dec 27): Bank Muamalat Malaysia Bhd on Monday (Dec 27) refuted a report of a cheque returned by Seremban Bank Muamalat for being not halal.

The bank stressed that cheques are not categorised as halal or not.

“As a banking institution, the bank accepts all valid cheques which have been completely and correctly filled,” it said in a statement.

It said the bank had contacted the customer in the case as there was a technical error in which the name of the association written in the cheque was different from the name registered.

Meanwhile, TA Securities analyst Wong Li Hsia said given that year-to-date (YTD) loan growth was already at 4%, the overall system loan growth in 2021 would likely exceed her forecast.

With this, she retained her "overweight" rating of the banking sector.

However, given the recent increase in banking stock’s share prices, she downgraded Public Bank from "hold" to "sell" as the total upside had fallen to less than 7%.

"Dividend yields across ASEAN are extremely attractive. If you look at just yields as a thematic, ASEAN does stand out as a viable alternative asset class," Anand said.

The dividend-yield thematic is also seen in Malaysia, where the KLCI is still dominated by old economy sectors like banking, telecommunications, utilities and plantation, according to Anand.

@stkoay @choysun yes, looking at the daily raise in price,, perhaps a juicy dividend in the horizon?

Posted by stkoay > 2022-01-04 20:32 | Report Abuse

@jeffchan1901....yes, I think 4Q EPS will be in the range of 16 to 20 sen, making full year EPS of about 70 sen.....dividend might be about 60/62 sen for full year ie 32 to 34 sen for final dividend.

Ringgit already depreciate to 4.19 against us dollar. If break 4.20, it may down further to 4.50

If reinstate tax for foreign source income and stamp duty with no limit in the future, the local currency may hit 5.00 against us dollar. Don't believe it, can try reinstate it and see the effects. Learn through trial. Jadi tikus putih.
