If you look at defensive stocks didn't go down in US stocks yesterday. These are staples like Nestle, Unilever, P&G, Campbell Soup etc .... It's a play on expectation on recession.

But my bet on Glove is for coming recession. Glove is used in healthcare, food processing... which are staples industry. Meaning good or bad times ... ppl need these products and services. I'll going in next week.

From USTR's public opinion on the tariff, the hospital association said to have difficulty finding alternative to syringes suppliers outside China. I am hoping USTR will delay syringes tariffs and replace with gloves instead for this Aug. They extend the review for 2 more weeks on the matter. We will know in 14 Aug.

They might increase the tariff to 50 percent as medical industry provide positive comment on alternative supplier

Yes. I saw USTR asking for public opinion on the tariff. They mentioned whether 25% or higher. Never mentioned lower tariff. Meaning to say 25% as the lowest tariff. They extend the review for 2 more weeks on the matter. We will know in 14 Aug.

Market overreaction so called the analyst plant visit. My China friend work in Intco told
me China government want them to ready enough medical glove to deal with the next pandemic, so there will be no local shortage of medical glove if that time coming. This is main purpose, they learn from experience. Analysts didn't tell you this as their purpose is to influence the price down so they can collect more Kossan. Demand of medical glove will in uptrend, will not come down.

From Hartalega forum I share it here:
The only fear of China gloves is them undercutting in ASP. Lets think this logically.
TopGlove ASP is $17. Operational Loss
Hartalega ASP is $21. Operational Loss
Kossan ASP is $16. Operational Profit
China ASP is $16. Operational Profit
Logic 1:
Is China operation so cost effective and "special" that they are still in operational profit although selling at lower ASP?
Answer is NO. If that is true, then Kossan should be in operation loss like other Msian gloves company. Since Kossan is making operational profit, this can only mean LOWER ASP are STEALING ORDERS from HIGHER ASP glove makers. Demand being limited, hitting the right volume will make operational profit. China "high tech" operation is NOTHING SPECIAL. Hartalega and Kossan have automation in their production. They are also very "high tech".
Logic 2:
Can China expanded production capacity kills Msia glove makers by stealing orders with lower ASP?
Answer is NO. Four biggest Msian glove companies had already cut production capacity in 2023/24 to reduce losses. So if China expand bigger, the higher FIXED COST will bring their operation to losses. Glove is a thin profit margin product. It's balance between ASP and VOLUME to be profitable. China cannot afford to lower their ASP further (Back to Logic 1: China "high tech" is not special).
Logic 3:
Then why China expanded their production capacity?
Bcoz of covid, ALL glove makers expanded their production capacity. China had zero-covid policy which extended the life of their expanded capacity. China will make losses if TopGlove and Hartalega lower their ASP to $16. This will easily kill of China glove makers. It is all about GETTING THE VOLUME ORDER or demand increases. If China is smart, they too should reduce production capacity (But apparently, they are not).
China only has ONE tactic ... throw price. But US tariff of 25% in 2026 will kill them. If Donald Trumps win, 60% tariff will definitely kill them and we don't need to wait until 2026. Lets hope Trump wins.
US market covers 30% of global glove demand. But higher tariff will improve Msia glove ASP significantly and GETTING 30% of the GLOBAL VOLUME ORDER.
$16 x 1.25 = $20.
Msia just need to sell at $19 to kick China's order out of US.
China glove will definitely go into LOSSES with LOWER VOLUME.
As for 70% of the global market, Malaysia can just follow China's price to be competitive.

KENANGA is your best friend I know. They always down play glove. By the way, the chart for 'DEMAND' does not account for Malaysia cut production capacity in 2023/24. Also other player like Thailand and China cutting production. Their valuation is the most ridiculous bcoz they don't take account on cash holding in Kossan and Hartalega.

Trump win has this effect
1) 10% tariff on every imports and 60% tariff on China. That 50% difference which more than 25% tariff in 2026. And we don't need to wait until 2026 for the effect.
2) Allow export of US Natural gas which will lower global price. Msia gloves use natural gas as energy.
3) Higher US import tariff => Higher US inflation => Higher Rates => Higher US dollar. Kossan and Harta export to US for USD.
Msia glove sector is the best bet for Trump win.

If Kossan release Q1 in 21 May 2024, then the Q2 result will be out 21 August. I don't why they keep moving their release date. It's very annoying.

American Hospitals Association wrote a letter to USTR to reconsider the tariff on medical products from China. This part of the letter:
"The AHA urged the USTR to only impose tariffs if it demonstrates sufficient manufacturing capacity outside of China to make choices among manufacturers a credible option. "
Gloves are easily available outside China. .. as in Malaysia. :)
So if USTR may reduce the tariff on other medical products from China, will USTR apply 25% tariff on China's gloves as early as 2025? Knowing US need to collect tax to pay their debt and reduce their fiscal deficit.

Now I'm observing 28 June. USTR is collecting opinions from their industry players on the tariff hike. I'm hoping they want it to be earlier than 2026. Old and bigger players may want to kill their small/new players in US. These new players has been "disturbing" their profit using China's gloves. We'll see. Can only hope.
