Jewellers are heaving a sigh of relief as the High-Value Goods Tax (HVGT) has been deferred, even if only temporarily. The government announced on Thursday (March 28) that the plan to implement the HVGT from May 1 has been indefinitely shelved as the Finance Ministry had not presented the Bill in Parliament yet.
Yes, Poh Kong is confirmed on the the uptrend track now. On 29Mar2024 it was a small signal to catch this stock. It's a clear signal for Poh Kong today which was ignored previously. Hope to break historic high this month.
Poh Kong share price historic high was around RM1.60 in August 2020 with the gold price at USD2030, USD 1 = RM 4.19. Now USD 1 = RM4.73, GOLD price is USD2340 per ounce. In comparison, notice that the USD appreciates against RM by 13% and the gold price is increased by 15.2%.
Yes, gold inventory is RM858million according to latest quarterly report. At RM1.02, PohKong market capital is only RM410million. Poh Kong is at very low price with gold business that hedge against uncertainty esp escalation wars now.

@Goldberg Nice to hear from you. I wait queitly for YTLP if the share price is around RM3.6 to RM3.7. YTLP is a grade AA stock. Crescendo is also a great stock.
Thanks Bro for your warm regards. Yes, YTL is a solid stock that is taking a breather after a massive run up. Crescendo is still running but Poh Kong will start sprinting to Rm1.60. Just my 2 cents.
Gold intrinsically is a natural hedge against sticky inflation. Look at your typical breakfast menu (commodities market for coffee, cocoa and orange juice at all time high). Energy prices are at elevated levels (crude oil above 90 per barrel) supported by both supply and demand equations: Supply side = rising geopolitical tension, disruption at russian refineries Demand side = strong manufacturing data in China & US (latest PMI) indicates strong demand for industrial metals (hence, energy consumption)
Gold is best hedge against geopolitical risk (Israel-Iran, Russia-Ukraine, China-Phillipines, China-Taiwan, Venezuala-Guyana. etc)
US debt levels at all time high. Huge budget deficit + election year heightened uncertanties.
Massive buying of gold from Central Banks of China and Japan. Both countries have been net seller of USD treasuries and buyer of Gold.
Also, watch out the Global money supply. Money supply is increasing, higher risk of currency debasement. Hence, more demand for Gold as a hedge.
The price of gold was RM280 a gram six months ago. Today, the price is RM355 a gram. The investment in Gold with Maybank/UOB bank are making profits as well.
The issued shares by Poh Kong is larger than Tomei.
I remember that the Gold was RM33 a gram back in 1990 but the price went up until RM355 today. It was RM33,000 per kilo as compare to RM355,000 today. It multiplied by by more than 10 times. Too bad, if the person still keeping that RM33,000 in the bank. The house, farmland or shop lot may not have appreciated by 10 time during the same period of time.
A piece of gold of 1 Kg is not that big the size. If a house fetch around RM1 Mil means it is equivalent to 3 pieces of gold bar (1 Kg each). Good if anyone still keeping that gold bar since then. A friend was telling me that he has more than 1,000 grams of Gold with Maybank through the gradual investment over the years.
Gold Hits New High as Central Banks Ramp Up Purchases
China’s central bank added gold to its reserves for the 17th month in a row in March
WSJ, Updated April 8, 2024 at 4:00 pm ET
June futures on the New York Mercantile Exchange have gained 4.4% over the last week and nearly 11% over the last year. Gold closed at another record high Monday, driven by central bank purchases.
Massive money printing(either paper money or bond), high inflation and escalated wars contribute to the gold price going up steadily. PohKong at RM1.13 is absolutely at very low price.
Malaysians pawning their gold possessions for quick cash, at the same time other Malaysian are still buying gold.
Despite the sky-high gold prices, Malaysians continue to buy the precious metal. Heritage Jewellers Sdn Bhd salesman N Murugan said people continue to purchase 916 gold jewellery, with no significant increase or decrease in the number of buyers.
“People usually purchase it for weddings, sometimes as much as three to five pounds of gold. The price for 916 gold could even surge up to RM500 per gram in the days to come,” he told FMT Business.
Jewellery in Malaysia is typically made from 916 gold, comprising 91.6% pure gold and 8.4% other metals. 916 gold traded at RM373 per gram yesterday afternoon.
Meanwhile, home-baker Janice Sillas, 39, lamented over the hike in gold prices as she wanted to purchase gold for her upcoming wedding.
“I have no choice but to buy gold at the current high price. If it keeps increasing, then we can’t purchase gold jewellery in the days to come.
Bitcoin is just some fictitious number generated from NOTHING by the computer. As such, its value is also NOTHING. It has NO PHYSICAL EXISTENCE. Investing in bitcoin is just a GREATER FOOL GAME !!! Don't be a GREATER FOOL, please. Thanks.
Gold prices are back in positive territory as the latest data showed most elements of producer price inflation in the U.S. economy cooling more than expected.
WOW!!! Gold is USD2392 per ounce even the US inflation is slightly up 0.1%. Escalation in war, massive money printing and dedollarization take charge now.
