Especially BYD EVs :
We've finally got an answer to what happens when the world's largest car market, China, builds more EVs than it can sell at home: It exports them. Breaking news, I know, but that's just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. The story isn't just that Chinese automakers are exporting cars, but that they're exporting controversial zero-mile "used" EVs.

The whole concept here is a bit bonkers. If you haven't been keeping up, Chinese automakers were recently called out for registering brand-new EVs with zero miles on the odometer just to be able to count them as sales. Government incentives are then passed around and the ministries in Beijing are happy that automakers are "selling" tons of cars.
What a Scam...🤔

Evergrande of automobile :
Now, I know that you're thinking this sounds weird. Surely we can't be witnessing the inception of Schrodinger's cars. Even China's government smells something fishy going on, because it's summoned automakers like BYD and Dongfeng to discuss exactly what's going on and get to the bottom of how so many of its cars are being found on the used market, according to a new report from Reuters. No miles, no owners, no stories—just paperwork and a faint whiff of what could be subsidy fraud at a steep discount.

Here's how it allegedly works.

An automaker wants to pump up some monthly sales figures so they "sell" the car (at least on paper) to a dealer or other partner. They slap a registration plant on the car, take advantage of whatever government credits apply and quietly funnel the car into the used market where it gets listed as preowned even though it's brand spanking new. Automakers get higher sales figures, consumers get cheaper cars. Seems like a win-win, no?🤓

Malaysia's electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure is currently a significant bottleneck for wider EV adoption. While the country aims to have 10,000 charging stations by the end of 2025, the current number of charging stations, particularly outside of Selangor and Kuala Lumpur, is insufficient, leading to consumer hesitation. This lack of infrastructure, along with concerns about affordability and battery safety, are hindering the transition to EVs.
Here's a more detailed look:
1. Limited Charging Stations:
Malaysia has a limited number of charging stations, with most concentrated in urban areas like Selangor and Kuala Lumpur.
The number of charging points per 100,000 residents is far below what's needed to encourage widespread EV adoption.
There's a noticeable disparity in charging infrastructure distribution, with fewer stations on the East Coast and East Malaysia.
2. Concerns About Infrastructure:
Consumers worry about the availability of charging stations, especially during peak travel times and long journeys.
The speed of charging is also a concern, with many wanting faster charging options to reduce wait times.
There are calls for more charging points to be installed along major highways to facilitate long-distance travel.
3. Addressing the Issues:
Malaysia is aiming to have 10,000 charging stations by the end of 2025, but projections suggest a significant portion of these will be located outside of key areas.
There's a need for better planning and investment in infrastructure, potentially including expanding rest areas and implementing open toll systems to allow for easier access to charging.
Standardization of charging technology and policies is also needed to address concerns about battery safety and compatibility.
Government initiatives like tax relief for home EV chargers aim to incentivize EV adoption.
Companies like TNB are also investing in grid modernization to support the increased energy load from EVs.
4. Broader Challenges:
Affordability remains a barrier for some consumers, although tax breaks and potential localization of EV production could help bring down prices.
Concerns about battery safety and replacement costs also need to be addressed.
Local councils need to be more involved in deploying public chargers, rather than relying primarily on private charging operators.
The existing power grid needs to be upgraded to handle the increased demand from a larger number of EVs.
BAUTO...focusung on XPeng n Changan EVs sales n service first...as more people understand the Brands...sales volume will grow normally.

Hi Geary admire your discipline and consistency in forum. But so far I see Bermaz still not making progress from XPeng not to mention the missing in action Deepal. Long long way to go for Bermaz. Pity minority shareholder like us. Haizzz

Bermaz Auto (BAuto) has secured the distributorship for Deepal, a Chinese electric vehicle (EV) brand, in Malaysia. The launch of Deepal models, including the S05 (compact SUV) and S07 (mid-size SUV), is planned for mid-2025(Just the beginning).
These vehicles will be imported (CBU) from Rayong, Thailand, where Deepal is beginning assembly.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Distributorship: BAuto, through its subsidiary Bermaz Changan SB, will handle the distributorship, sale of spare parts, and after-sales service for Deepal in Malaysia.
Deepal Brand: Deepal is a brand owned by Changan Automobile, a major Chinese manufacturer.
Models: The initial models for Malaysia will be the Deepal S05 and S07, both SUVs.
Launch: The launch is anticipated for mid-2025.
Import: The vehicles will be imported from Thailand, where Deepal is setting up assembly.
BAuto's EV Portfolio: This addition expands BAuto's EV offerings, which already include XPeng(4th Quarter '24).
Market Context: The introduction of Deepal EVs comes at a time when the Malaysian auto market is expected to see a rationalization of fuel subsidies, potentially impacting consumer sentiment and demand. Plus EV's infrastructure bottleneck, etc...🤓

Stopping 'Auto Evergrande' in China! Fair Competition!?
China has introduced legal measures to halt businesses’ race to the bottom, as it continues to crack down on price-cutting practices that are hurting the economy.

The country’s top legislative body on June 27 passed amendments to a law against “unfair competition”, including one that prohibits platform operators from compelling their vendors to sell items at below cost price.

The amended law, state broadcaster CCTV said on June 28, will regulate “involutional competition” such as the “frenzied lowering of prices” on e-commerce platforms, and food delivery platforms’ use of hefty subsidies to wrest a share of the market.

Market Noise and External Pressure!
The financial media and social chatter can also influence sell decisions. If everyone seems bullish on a stock, it can be hard to sell, even when your analysis suggests otherwise.

Fear of missing out or herd mentality often overrides rational decision-making.
Moreover, investors may feel external pressures - from peers, clients, or even their own past decisions - to hold on.

For professional investors, reputational risk adds an extra layer of difficulty in justifying a sell.

Selling a stock involves confronting uncertainty, managing emotions and making decisions that go against ingrained psychological tendencies.

While buying is fuelled by optimism and possibility, selling forces an investor to assess outcomes, acknowledge mistakes and battle internal biases.

*It requires discipline, objectivity and a clear strategy, qualities that are difficult to sustain in the volatile world of investing*!

For these reasons, selling is not just a financial action but a test of psychological resilience, making it far harder than buying for most investors.
There are processes of buying n holding n trading, scalping, day n swing...depending on stock FA, dividend n earnings growth, bonuses, n most crucially profit takings or zeroing down cost of capital employed. It depends on esch person temperament, free cash n age...🤔🤓
