I noticed someone keep collecting few lots or 20~25 lots basically every minute since few days ago... Maybe the upcoming MCO protocols are going to be good (at least not restrict too much) for economy sector, such as retail shops and malls
Technicals are looking nice now. especially after yesterday's rise in volume. the highest volume day in 15 trading days. Stochastics have crossed over and MACD tightening up. Short term Moving Average currently at 94.5, so I'm looking for that to break today or tomorrow.
Appears to be in a nicely controlled accumulation phase. With the Quarterly to be released in around 3 weeks time, my gut feeling is we will see a gradual move up on expectation of the results at least matching the solid last Quarterly.
Buying around this current price point seems to be a decent entry point, IMO.
I believe recovery themed stocks (like Aeon) will see even more upside when the vaccines are starting to be distributed in Malaysia, as SOPs of MCO are unlikely to be tightened anymore
Aeon really know their trade . I always find it pleasant when shopping at aeon. Know where to find things i need, know whre to pay, know wher to get vpuchers. When hlg say tp 1.17 i angguk n ciduk the shares la. 90 sen mur mur very good deal.
Next week is a shortened week due to CNY, so the market closes at 12.30pm on Thursday. Looking at the chart, I'd say there's more than a 50/50 chance that this will touch the Rm1 mark before the CNY break. The 94 to 96.5 region was always going to be a resistance area but 95 held well yesterday in an overall flat day on the market. I'd be hoping for a break of Rm1 after the CNY holiday.
Let's see how it plays out and that the overall market is at least marginally positive next week. :)
Hi traintobullland, I hope it does but I like to remain conservative in my views in an overall soft market environment. I'd say the overall market will be up a bit tomorrow but it won't surprise me if the market finishes a bit in the red. That's just the way of the market these days because of the country's current "challenges".
Aeon (M) ties up with Boxed for new digital retail ecosystem
Aeon Co (M) Bhd is aiming for its new digital shopping platforms to contribute 15% to 20% of its retail revenue over the next five years, according to chief executive officer Shafie Shamsuddin.
The group that runs Aeon Retail Malaysia has tied up with American grocery e-commerce retailer Boxed to build what Shafie calls a new online retail ecosystem, which is targetted to roll out by the end of the second quarter in 2021.
“We have 16 physical locations in Malaysia, where we can build fulfillment centres, together with Boxed technology. Nobody else has this capability currently in Malaysia, ” said Shafie in an online interview.
Shafie said the new online retail ecosystem will deliver options and personalised solutions to Aeon customers who can choose to visit the malls and get their groceries and goods delivered to them while dining in restaurants, or delivered to their homes or offices.
“Aeon customers will be able to enjoy unique user experiences. Aeon Malaysia is one of the largest mall operators in the country. We have a 10% share of the net leasable area, and as such have a lot of brands and choices offered by over 4,000 tenants. Our tenants will also be offering their products and services via our online platform, using Boxed solutions, ” said Shafie.
He said this year, the group will be working on integrating the Boxed technology with Aeon operations in the Klang Valley, before moving on to other Aeon operations across the country in early 2022.
Shafie said for 2021, the group has a capital expenditure (capex) of RM200mil where the bulk will be for renovations and maintenance for Aeon malls, and 30% will be focused on digital platform and transformation.
Aeon Malaysia is the pilot for Boxed technology outside the United States. “The Boxed platform can be applicable to Aeon companies globally. Malaysia is one of the countries that has the biggest Aeon presence in Asia, but it is not as big or complex as Japan. After implementing Boxed technology in Malaysia, we plan to roll it out to other Asean countries, ” said Shafie.
Boxed has signed an eight-figure US dollar deal with Aeon Malaysia to utilise its technology to accelerate Aeon’s digital transformation.
The two companies did not disclose the value of the deal, other than to say it would be a multi-year collaboration. Also present at the online interview was Boxed chief executive officer Chieh Huang who said the partnership with Japan’s Aeon Group was a “good marriage” where the integrated Japanese retailer had the resources and scale, while Boxed provided new technology.
“It has been seven and a half years. We built the business with millions of customers and hundreds of millions of dollars of revenue. “We built the technology – from the front-end software, inventory management system to the warehouse management system, and even the robotics," said Huang.
Our newest fulfillment centres are 100% automated by our own homegrown robotics, ” said Chieh, adding that there are very few companies in the world that has this kind of vertically integrated technology stack.
In August 2018, Boxed had closed a US$110mil funding round led by Aeon Group. It was reported that the two companies would collaborate on fulfillment logistics, robotics and artificial intelligence (AI)-driven data usage.
“When we first started the partnership, it was really for us to advise Aeon Group on our technology and their digital transformation. So, what we are doing here now has been an evolution of that conversation over the last two years, ” said Chieh.
Chieh explained that Boxed technology provide cost savings to its customers. “With Boxed technology, the benefits are time saving, cost efficiencies, as well as convenience, and addressing safety concerns in this Covid-19 era. We will also provide business-to-business services to our tenants and SMEs (small and medium enterprises). In the future, we will also provide financing to SMEs through this ecosystem, via the end-to-end solutions provided by Boxed, ” said Shafie.
However it goes, once news hit that vaccine arrived in Malaysia 2 weeks from now, retail sector is one of the recovery sectors investors will be aiming. Good luck to us all in stock market :D
CZ has a high premium, the risk of losing everything on expiry is very high. If you want to buy warrant clearly C1 is a better option, it is on sales for near 0 premium now thanks to CIMB’s malfunctioning market maker
@MYinvestor Remember not to hold on to an out of the money warrant for too long time, the time decay will press the price towards 0.005. In the semi-bullish scenario that Aeon has an uptrend through 1.15 or so, the price of CZ will likely be staying below 0.02 anyway, just like Bursa-C33 once did.
So far it seems to be playing out the way we spoke about over the weekend. The Rm1 "psychological barrier" should get over run, then we may have a bit of a traffic jam between 1.00 and 1.04 for a period. If 1.04 is broken, then I'd be looking at:
TP1: 1.08 TP2: 1.11 TP3: 1.15.
The 1.15 price point might be wishful thinking and may need the upcoming Quarterly to exceed the previous quarter's profit results. The upcoming Quarterly obviously includes the Christmas sales revenue but I'm guessing that won't add much more to revenue because of Covid.
Big Time undervalue...once Covid subsides and cinemas and restaurants in Aeon back to business the place will be packed like never before...people are tired of home and takeaways...its all about the experience, online sales no threat to Aeon..
HI Dongbei, in general terms I agree with your comments. I have no doubt that there is a place in our lives for online shopping but in most cases we like to go out and wander and browse. It's just something that we are programmed to do as humans. I even see it more relevant in Asian societies. As for your comment about people flocking back and packing out places, well I'm a bit less convinced about that, in the short term anyway. The vaccine is definitely a plus but I'm still not convinced it is the silver bullet to get things promptly back to normal . The economy will still struggle this year as it will take quite a bit of time to repair the damage we have already suffered before we can be positive and go into spending mode. IMO.
I'd be very cautious on the forward projections you read from various government departments, particularly for this year. Again, just my personal thoughts.
Funds managers starts to collect Aeon already..... preparing for recovery phase once Vaccine starts end of this month ... Better ride the wave before its too late guys... Opportunity is here
WenJun MACD also shows a bullish crossover, looking good 09/02/2021 5:04 PM *************************************************************************
Yes, correct, Wen Jun, a positive indicator. Tonight's news about retail opening up from tomorrow might give Aeon a bit of a knee jerk reaction to the upside. Personally, I like to see a stock rise nice and steady on solid volume, so I'd be more than happy with just a couple of cents rise tomorrow and some consolidating volume.
Took profit on previous uptrend support line @ 1.06~1.07, amazing trade!!! Hope to buy back with cheaper price when it backtest some previous resistance
I still see a bit more upside leading to the Quarterly in just over two weeks time. Whether the price can be sustained will depend on the performance of the quarter, IMO.
Looking at the 3 prior Quarterlies:
Jan to March Revenue: Rm 1.190B April to June Revenue: Rm 954 Mill. July to August Revenue: Rm 989 Mill.
Clearly the effect of the country's first MCO effected revenue for the April to June quarter. There was a Rm 35 Mill. increase in revenue in the following quarter.
It requires a Rm 11 Mill. increase in revenue in the upcoming quarterly to go back over the Rm 1B level.
If that can be achieves with a net profit equal of greater than the last quarter, then it could provide support and further gains.
There should be an announcement after the Quarterly to advise if they are retaining their 4 cent dividend.
