This blog is not responsible for your losses, nor does it share your gains. Whatever you read here, please read it with a pinch of salt. YOUR ACTION IS YOUR ABSOLUTE RESPONSIBILITY.

The reasons are as follows:

It is a small-cap stock; its paid-up capital is only RM90 million.

It has a strong balance sheet with over RM80 million in cash as at 31.12.13

It has no borrowings 

Its current ratio is over 2 as at 31.12.13

Its par value is 50 sen

It has a dividend policy of giving out 30% of its earnings as dividends

It distributes a comprehensive range of ICT products comprising of notebooks, personal computers, printers, software, network and communication infrastructure, servers, and enterprise software from more than 30 leading principals such as HP, IBM, Cisco, Asus, Microsoft, Apple, Dell, Oracle, Epson, Samsung, Buffalo, Adobe, Juniper, Blue Coat, VMware and Lenovo.

It has more than 3000 outlets to sell its more than 3000 products.
In our modem world of ICT, computers, PC tablets and smart phones are no longer luxury items, they are necessities of life. Mobile devices, especially smart phones and PC tablets are increasingly in demands. This trend is sure to continue as new technology comes into play.

High Speed Broad Band 2 (HSBB2) and Budget 2014 will boost the demand for ICT products. 

The company is also involved in cloud computing and enterprise systems which every business needs. Cloud computing is popular in Japan and Hong Kong. Malaysia will be next.

The founders of ECS are still managing the company.

The company is expected is do well this year. Growth will come from its business in smart phones and other mobile devices. 

Keep a close watch on this counter. Presently at around RM1.28, it is a laggard, cheap and lowly priced. 

When it finally moves, drive into the market and load up your trunk.

Buy at our own risk.
