Don't think there will be special dividend. Like rc15 mentioned, the 1.08 Narra is the special dividend. Bear in mind that HLI was around the RM5 region when this exercise was first proposed. It's now 8.50 as computed by ericoconut.
However having said the above, I have noticed that HLI still have a share premium reserve of about 152M after the capital distribution. So I guess further goodies are possible though unlikely.
Hi, I read report that Narra will double their capacity soon. Does anyone know when or has a link to that report? I read a report that the 0.23 EPS is based on 75% of the current capacity, so the EPS for full capacity should be much higher. I did have the report, but mis-placed it. Appreciate if someone has the link to post it here for everyone's benefit.
There is a famous quote " when america sneezes the world catches a cold" ; US market influences the world market. You can correlate the ups and downs of the US markets ie; Dow Jones, S&P and Nasdaq indexes with that of Malaysia's bursa. US market had a sharp fall in October; they call it the "Red October"; and Malaysia market followed with a sharp fall. But now the US market had a sharp rise yesterday, the bursa should follows; so says the theory. But historically the trend is there. Hope this answer your question ko2004bb.
novice168 , generally what u said may be quite right when US sneezes the world catches a cold ...but there are bouts in history that the world decouple with US or industrial world . When US is pursuing a low interest rate policy it also releases a lot of liquidity to the world .so the world dances according to US s tune, but when US recovers interest rate will gradually rises , then billions n trillions of loans in US dollar for investment in other higher yielding currencies and equities would have to be reverse...this will lead to a possible situation of rising confidence in US n repartraition of money back to USD . meaning uncoupling of emerging investment and investment in US .. are we not that far from this scenario ????? maybe !!!!!
You are right. Happyman. US market is doing well now, and money is flowing back. However, the correlation of the ups and downs of stock market vs bursa is quite evident. As you can see in the recent weeks' pattern.
Determining the correlation coeffient of the US market and our Bursa is not an excact science as evidenced by the current hike in the CI as against last night drop in both the Dow and S & P. However short of any noteworthy domestic development our KLSE generally take it's cue from the US market.

I predict Narra may come down tomorrow; many may want to cash in on the profit. Narra may rise later when more news on how the business is doing; the EPS and expansion status. Make your prediction; just for fun.
My apologies, it's 448M new shares and not 348M as stated by me earlier. Got my figures wrong. Narra will be under tremendous selling pressure but am expecting it to rebound back above 4 once the dust settles. Predict that it might go to as low as 3.50 if CI drops heavily tomorrow.
