The recent renewed interest was also on news that Datuk Eddie Ong Choo Meng, who recently took control of Rubberex Corp (M) Bhd, has emerged as a front-runner to take over GPA.
Quoting sources, The Edge Malaysia weekly reported on Aug 29 that Ong is going head-to-head against data centre operator Regal Orion Sdn Bhd to take control over GPA.
Sept 1 (Reuters) - Gpa Holdings Bhd <GPAH.KL>: * PROPOSES DIVERSIFICATION OF EXISTING BUSINESS OF CO TO INCLUDE GLOVES BUSINESS * GROUP INTENDS TO BUY & COMMISSION UP TO 12 DOUBLE FORMER AUTOMATED GLOVE-DIPPING LINES IN STAGES OVER 24 MONTHS * INTENDS COMMISSION UP TO 12 DOUBLE FORMER AUTOMATED GLOVE-DIPPING LINES TO MANUFACTURE RUBBER GLOVES * 12 GLOVE-DIPPING LINES EXPECTED TO YIELD PRODUCTION CAPACITY OF ABOUT 3.6 BILLION PIECES OF GLOVES PER ANNUM
Check the above WHO website for daily infected and death. There is no sign the covid is slowing down. US, Brazil, India all 3 countries reported above 1000 death per day for each country. Its scary
FYI, we say goodbye to the resignations of BOD Mr. Sharifuddin Shiob as part of the co-founder of Rubberex based in Ipoh and Chairman Dato Abd Rahim. All strong men of Rubberex. Thank you for your services and we bid farewell.
kens88 - based on current Price to Earnings Ratio, Ruberex is among the most attractive...it also has capacity growth in the pipeline (end of the year). If you check my earlier postings, you will see why it is one of the more appealing Rubber gloves companies, although it is not covered as much by analysts and IBs. Flying under the radar, so to speak. Just my opinion...
The current correction is broadbased, not only confined to rubber gloves, although the latter is hard hit due to it's huge moves over the last few months. Frankly, the glove sector is the only sector we know will be making tonnes of money the coming quarters. Best of all, it is not rocket science to try to guess their earnings...easy also because you know they are running at full capacity...the only missing element is their Average ASPs (even then, it can be estimated)...In my opinion, there's still upside...of course there will be noise on vaccines coming up to disrupt things here and there...it's up to you ! Do you believe:
1) an effective vaccine will be produced by end of this year? 2) the companies will be able to make billions of shots within the year? 3) people will trust the safety of the vaccine? Hence, will they want to be jabbed with something unproven by time and proper testing?
"As a result, customers must now wait nearly 600 days for their orders to be filled, compared with a normal delivery time of 30 to 40 days, said chief executive, Lim Wee Chai."
US hits >50k new cases...first time in 20 days...and this hasn't taken into consideration Labor day holidays on the 7th Sept. Not to mention, autumn and winter is coming...
France and Spain also reporting new highs since their lockdowns...
"We have health centres calling us every day trying to get their hands on gloves," said Sebastien Lenoble, director of Netherlands-based Shield Scientific, which markets gloves for medical, industrial and laboratory applications.
"These aren't our usual clients. They're coming to us because they're desperate to find gloves."
Malaysia's glove makers struggle to meet booming demand By AFP September 5, 2020 @ 10:00am - NSTP / FAIZ ANUAR
PARIS: With no end in sight to the coronavirus pandemic, worldwide demand for surgical gloves – as for other types of personal protective equipment – is booming, leaving manufacturers struggling to keep up.
The global PPE market – from masks, gowns and gloves, to shoes and sanitising gels – is expected to balloon from US$52 billion in 2019 to US$93 billion in 2027, according to German market data specialist, Statista.
And, like other such products that were previously predominantly the domain of specialist medical personnel, the surgical glove has become much sought after even by the general public.
US-based Allied Market Research estimates that the global disposable gloves market amounted to US$6.8 billion in 2019, and is expected to nearly triple to US$18.8 billion by 2027.
Covid-19: Malaysia's Top Glove overwhelmed by international orders Spike in demand for rubber gloves: Top Glove to the rescue Top Glove now Malaysia's second-biggest company Just as worldwide shortages of masks and disinfectant gels have pushed up the prices of those products, single-use medical gloves have become increasingly difficult and costly to come by during the health crisis.
Malaysia is the world's biggest maker of rubber gloves, accounting for around 60 per cent of global exports.
And according to the Malaysian manufacturers' association MARGMA, worldwide demand is projected to rise from 296 billion in 2019 to 330 billion this year.
Given the surge, the industry is forecasting a shortage that is expected to last well into next year, MARGMA said.
Malaysian manufacturer Top Glove, which describes itself as the world's biggest producer of rubber gloves, said it is seeing orders for 11-12 billion a month, compared with 4.5 billion prior to the pandemic.
As a result, customers must now wait nearly 600 days for their orders to be filled, compared with a normal delivery time of 30-40 days, said chief executive, Lim Wee Chai.
In addition, with raw materials in short supply, production costs are also rising.
"The shortage of raw material for our nitrile gloves and the disruption to the supply or production of other material such as packaging materials due to the global lockdown, has caused an increase in the production cost," said Top Glove.
That would be passed on to customers in the form of higher prices.
While health experts argue that regular handwashing offers better protection against Covid-19 than gloves, the current boom for PPE is expected to pose another problem further down the line.
Environmental campaigners are concerned that millions of tonnes of single-use gloves will end up polluting the oceans.
This is so confusing...today all glove stock drop to the level on 17th August. 18th August everything rebound like crazy. With current sudden surge of covid19, will the miracle on 18th August occur again tomorrow? This is so difficult to decide for those who wants to sell and cut loss tomorrow, whether we should sell first thing in the morning or should keep? If keep but the miracles of 18th doesnt occur, we will cut loss more...
looks like panic selling today, why?....price range also big and today is the 6th day this counter down from 5.73 to today as low as 4.50 for RM1.23 diff. That big drop for such a strong QR result!

OPR TO CUT BY 25 BASIS POINT FROM CURRENT 1.75% TO 1.50%?
Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) is expected to make one final 25 basis point (bps) cut in the Overnight Policy Rate (OPR) as early as in the central bank’s next Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting on Sept 10, 2020 in anticipation of an arduous economic recovery path ahead.
Bank Negara to announce opr cut again... that means more retailer money going into Bursa.
