Johor's special zone was initially planned by KJ during Pak Lah and the biggest mystery is that not many people know who was behind the Sarawak planning. Unlike those Sabah linked speculative counters they kept mentioning those big names like JP Morgan or Goldman Sachs but Sarawak never reveal who was their top investment advisors doing all these highly strategic planning and the footprint on Port and Banking etc looks very familiar 😁

The path of tech stocks are related to the movement of Venue.

"Venus revolves or orbits around the Sun once every 0.615 Earth years, or once every 224.7 Earth days. Venus travels at an average speed of 78,341 miles per hour or 126,077 kilometers per hour in its orbit around the Sun." (source: Caltech)

The Monday, April 8, 2024, total solar eclipse will cross North America, passing over Mexico, the United States, and Canada. The total solar eclipse will begin over the South Pacific Ocean.

Could a Hard Drive Supply Chain Crisis Push AI and Digital Ads to the Breaking Point?

Everything is moving to the cloud, especially when it comes to data. But the critical thing to remember about “the cloud” and “cloud data storage” is the fact that they still require cold, hard disk drives (HDDs) down here on Earth. Typically, these HDDs are found in vast server farms—like the 7.4 million-square-foot “Citadel” facility in Nevada.

The other thing to remember about cloud data storage is that the AI revolution is driving the need for more of it. This is why Google (1), Microsoft (2), Meta (3), AWS (4), and other tech giants are spending billions on new data centers. It’s also why cloud storage is getting more expensive, and why HDD manufacturers are releasing bigger drives. 50 terabyte drives are coming in late 2024.

Why the outgoing CEO tipoff the market the takeover price by Abang Jo is 2.4 so is he happy or not happy with the 2.4 takeover price? The answer is clear so unless the shares is officially transferred to the CDS account of Sarawak government or else it is more likely that the CEO is trying to heat up the price war and extract the best value for the public member of LTAT. It highly out of the norm that a resignation letter will include sensitive info such as the takeover price of 2.4 sighted by The Edge so for those who is late to the party the night is still young😁

It is such a surprise that EON Bank and Affin Bank shared a lot of similarities such as low ROE, car loans, no overlapping of branch locations and so on. If history is any guide, as long as some controlling block of a banking shares is available for grab whether it is in Hong Kong or Malaysia, those high end corporate raiders will join the party. If Quek Leng Chan was interested in EON Bank, there is no reason why he is not interested in Affin Bank. Tong Kooi Ong used to own a boutique bank so there is no reason he is not interested in Affin Bank. Last year Abang Jo was trying to bid for the licence of Digital Banking so at 2.4 he will be laughing all the way to the bank. EPF kept selling the shares but the share price kept going up so unlikely it was retailers in the market supporting the share price. Quek Leng Chan was trying to launch a hostile takeover of Bank of East Asia and it cannot be a coincidence that BEA is holding a big block of shares in Affin Bank. When we put all these small pieces of the puzzle, a big picture will emerge. So let's pray Tan Sri Quek Leng Chan is on the prowl again. Quek, founder of the Hong Leong Group of companies, will be stalking another prey — Affin Bank.

The proposed takeover of EONCap by HLBB has all the makings of a replay of the hostile takeover of Southern Bank Bhd (SBB) by the CIMB Group back in 2005.

industry observers say there have been indications that HLBB isn’t willing to pay anything above 1.3-1.5 times price-to-book value (PBV) for EONCap, based on its rather low return on equity (ROE) of 4.2% and return on assets of 0.3% in FY2008.

Thus, based on its 2008 book value (BV) of RM4.62, this works out to between RM6.15 and RM7.10 a share. EONCap’s projected BV for 2009 is RM5.05 — which means that the price that Quek may be willing to pay is anything between RM6.76 and RM7.50 a share.

Read the above news line by line to understand that a banking licence is a valuable commodity and a machine to print money. The banker can collect deposits from the general public and give out loans and pocket the difference as his profit so it is never in my trading career that a banking business changes hands with such low valuation.

Those who are late to the party the night is still young and it is acceptable to take the calculated risk as the cut loss level can be set at 2.3-2.4 ringgit with limited downside if the takeover price by Abang Jo at 2.4 ringgit turns out to be true but if this is a fair deal the upside should be around 6-7 ringgit and my calculations based on intrinsic value and technical chart are pointing close to this level.

Personally I set my exit point at 2.15 ringgit with current level if I remember correctly my profit is around 50% but I am pretty confident there will be a hostile takeover by some other banking tycoon to frustrate the deal.

EPF is a well managed institution and their selling is more likely related to ESG instead of the takeover by Abang Jo.

The bearish scenarios for crude oil and palm oil are due to the bullish scenario on USD so it is expected to see more downward pressure on commodities all over the world. When CPO hit all time high analysts said it was because of the Ukraine Russia War but this war is still ongoing so the collapse of CPO has nothing to do with the war but the movement of USD.

KLCI and Bear Market Dynamics:
Investors in the Malaysian equities market should approach current conditions with vigilance and prudent risk management, given the potential presence of a bear trap. Technically, the KLCI has been entrenched in a structural downtrend since 2014, significantly influenced by the collapse of commodity bubbles in oil (US$145 in 2008) and palm oil (RM8000 in 2022). These events, coupled with the close correlation between the Malaysian economy, MYR, and commodity prices, have contributed to this extended bearish period.

Navigating a Bear Market:
Successfully navigating a structural bear market necessitates a nuanced understanding of the underlying economic dynamics. While acknowledging the overarching challenges, astute investors can identify pockets of resilience and growth within specific sectors, such as those connected to development in Johor (UEMS) and Sarawak (Affin Bank). This strategic approach enables investors to prudently position themselves within the market, mitigating risks and capitalizing on potential opportunities.

Assessing the Potential of Sarawak's Banking and Mega-Project Developments

Privatization of Banking Group:

Unlikely: Privatizing a major banking group is a complex and sensitive undertaking with potential economic and political repercussions. While not entirely impossible, it's unlikely Abang Jo would prioritize this move given the potential risks and complexities involved.

Alternatives: Expanding the capital base and attracting strategic partnerships through joint ventures or minority stake sales might be more feasible and less disruptive approaches.

Potential Partnerships and Expansion:

DBS Collaboration: A collaboration with DBS, a leading Singaporean bank, could bring expertise and regional reach to Sarawak's banking sector.

Abang Jo's acquisition of Affin Bank is not a frivolous endeavor but a strategic move in line with his comprehensive plan. The earnest pursuit of bank ownership is driven by Sarawak's vision to establish a self-sufficient economy, intending to economically detach from the declining Peninsular economy, especially in Penang. The forthcoming extensive infrastructure projects in Sarawak are anticipated to yield significant multiplier effects on the local economy. Singapore's substantial purchase of power from Sarawak via an undersea cable highlights the region's potential as a power supplier. It won't be surprising if Sabah follows suit in procuring power from Sarawak. Additionally, with Indonesia's new capital, Nusantara, potentially seeking power supply from Sarawak, the strategic acquisition becomes even more pivotal. The acquisition cost below Net Tangible Assets (NTA) implies that Abang Jo is essentially acquiring Affin Bank at little to no cost, especially when factoring in the potential value derived from the separation of AffinHwang Investment Bank, a substantial player in the stock market.

Affin Bank above 2.15 is bullish and below 2.15 is bearish. Key dates to watch are around 27 Feb 2024 and 08 May 2024.
