Me too are puzzled why certain individual label it " pump & dump". Reminds me of YTLP in their early bull run { a few individuals keep asking people to sell and dump the shares } from the 2.10.... right to 2.50.....3.50.....4.00..... Now the price is 4. 35 { even after the pull back}

Ditto @LubeTrader and thank you.
Digress from Affin
Artificial Intelligence will be the next big thing in Sarawak. Abundant natural resources and political stability. No earth quakes. Cheap Environmental Friendly Electricity ✔ Clean crystal clear water ✔ Vast tracts of land ( which can be cheap). Already in motion to groom talents - top scholars from Malaya are welcome to pursue their tertiary education in Sarawak FOC. UEC recognised. In fact there should be no worries on talents (unlike in Malaya) because Sarawak controls its immigration. Import from China and the whole ecosystem will be inundated with Engineers. Customs and Culture sensitivities are not an issue, can designate free zones like Dubai. I don't know, but I am invested in some Hornbill companies to preserve and growth wealth for the next 2 generations. 😁

Just to add on Sarawak State is the largest producer of natural gas in Malaysia. Previously sale of natural gas is channel directly under Petronas but now the distribution of natural gas is reverted back to the Sarawak State government under the purview of Petros { the gas aggregrator for the state licensing, distribution and retail} 13 multi national companies have received their licence from Petros. Another 3 more applications is still pending.

Why is it done on the open market? Not direct transaction at fixed price? Between 11.20 to 11.22am just now, I noticed several blocks of 500k units changed hands.

LTAT sold 4.95% to Sarawak state. Additional 20% comes likely from thier Boustead own shares portfolio. Abang Johari wants 30% stake in Affin. Strong possibility he collecting from the open market

The 3 mid tier bank's listed share price on Bursa. Affin at $3.33, Ambank $ 5.01 and Alliance bank at $4.46. In terms of bank assets, network, EPS or loan growth. Affin is quite close to their peer. But when come to share pricing. Affin as a group is a poor cousin vs it's peer. Not a buy call just my own view looking at the statistics

Posted by Bursino > 2 months ago | Report Abuse

Noted. Confidence deficit. A new owner and management can help mitigate long held stigma attached. Continue to hold.

Posted by Jonathan Keung > 2 months ago | Report Abuse

Today Affin bank $3.40 +7 Ambank $5.17 + 16, ABMB $4.47 +1. Still lots to catch up

Not a good day for Affin. Traded today low at 3.17 despite their Qtr marginal result announcement

Posted by Plantermen > 2 months ago | Report Abuse

Affin share price has underperformed vs it's peer {despite the strong undertone sentiment in banking stocks} the lack lustre result in Affin qtr announcement is not helping either.

What's happening in Affin is just pure speculation and the stock will eventually tank

Posted by LubeTrader > 2 months ago | Report Abuse

Certainly looks like it will return to the price range before the hoo-haa. Ruined its reputation in the process. Many are ruing not offloading their holdings when price was at its peak because for a bank stock like Affin, opportunity like this may never come again perhaps not in the short-term.

Posted by Jonathan Keung > 2 months ago | Report Abuse

Not looking good for Affin. Key support 3.00 breach

Posted by Bursino > 2 months ago | Report Abuse

It all depends on the time horizon. Still a safe bet for a specu-vestor. Affin Bank will grow and recover for sure. Unlike many other counters which will never recover after a crash.

I think Sarawak is likely to pay a fair premium to takeover Affin. Sarawak 's revenue for 2024 is expected to surpass last year's RM13.1 billion .

"These major projects that have been implemented and undertaken by the Sarawak Premier’s administration does not include two other major acquisitions which are currently under negotiations, namely the taking over of MASwings and Affin Bank, which will definitely cost Sarawak billions of ringgit.

Now let us ask ourselves, how did Datuk Patinggi Abang Zohari managed to source such a colossal amount of money?

The answer is very complex, but to make it sound very simple - it is with a stroke of genius that his administration has managed to impose a five per cent SST on oil and gas productions in Sarawak. Since the imposition of the SST in 2019, it has contributed RM14.7 billion as of October 2023....
