Ans: Misleading information ! Steel price is trading at ten year high !
China is putting "electricity rationing" policy into a short to mid term action. With steel products under limited production, global steel products like tubes and hardwares pricing will sky rocketing.
Many Steel and palm oil companies making record profit and their stock price is trading at single digit PE which is abnormal! Nothing wrong with the fundamental of steel and palm oil sectors , except that the Malaysian market is very sick. Absolutely no liquidity and no buying interest. Consequently, stock price continue to stay in doldrums.
Fundamentals of Hiaptek will prevail, it is a matter of timing only. Just need a bit of patience to wait. KLSE is bearish and it is one of the worst stock market in the world. Do not expect miracle to happen. Thank you.
In fact , when China decide to curb industrial production due to energy shortage and environmental concern steel companies outside of China stand to benefit tremendously. President Xi promises his people blue sky and committed to do it’s fair share in global climate change, All polluting industries and high energy consumption industries will be controlled . China has moved higher in the technology economy . All these means that China will no longer be the exporter of cheap and subsidized products to the world which include steel . . China may even turn importer in the near future. As a result , the whole market dynamics has changed. steel companies outside of China will enjoy stable and improved profit from now on. I have started accumulating steel stocks , a sector I never touched before.
Prices of steel rebar, hot-rolled coils rise as climate crackdown joins power cuts in China.
China’s recently aggressive push for climate controls measures by the industrial players has already favored the metal buyers. Adding to that were the later power cuts in the dragon nation.
Production curbs were used to tame the power usage by the industries. “Prices for steel rebar and hot-rolled coils on the Shanghai Futures Exchange also increased due to production curbs as major steel producing regions are restricting power usages,” said Reuters.
Every automotive OEM operates a little bit differently. However, in general, automotive OEMs purchase their steel more or less along these lines:
-1. RFQs for the next calendar year are sent by the OEMs, typically in August or September, based on current market conditions. Deals typically get negotiated and signed between then and the end of the year but can be as late as January.
2. New contract pricing goes into effect Jan. 1 of the following year.
3. OEMs have used multiple negotiation strategies with some using “should-cost models” and guaranteeing volume in exchange for a fixed price and others negotiating a discount off a published index price in exchange for volume (also at a fixed price).
Moreover, in response to RFQ requests this year, steel producers have taken a more divisive approach to negotiations. We have heard that, in some cases, automotive OEMs have two weeks to sign or risk not having supply.
All eyes will be on its Qtr results due out today or tomorrow. considering only one full month of 100% meaningful operations, if it can report abt half of previous qtr result, i.e PAT =RM30 Million, then I think this stock has future.
Hiaptek and Annjoo enjoy most steel counters can't afford with much lower iron ore price and process it by blast furnace to the custome made steel. This non-stop process result in saving electricity, efficiency and much higher profit margin.
Compare to last five years where Malaysia steel manufacturers production cost is higher than China market price resulted a lot of Malaysia manufacturers suffering heavy loses. At the moment the market in China already gone double compare to last year .So even if China steel price drop by 30% Malaysia steel manufacturer still making tons of profit ! What is there to worry ?
X Beltland John Lu @superman7181 then you better all in to see quarter result tonight. 29/09/2021 12:10 PM
This is share market, retailers are selling and some are buying .
Your friend is not the management staff ,he doesn't has the authority to read the financial report before official declaration .The result of profit is either very good or not good will be known this evening . What you said is your personal assumption !
Good indication ! something is brewing ! Profit exceeded 30 million ? ----------------- PAT doubles your estimation.
Very good result. PAT = 60.484 million despite 2 months plant shutdown for the factory at Klang. Blast furnace plant of Eastern Steel was shutdown for a month. Thank you.
