The 3 mid tier bank's listed share price on Bursa. Affin at $3.33, Ambank $ 5.01 and Alliance bank at $4.46. In terms of bank assets, network, EPS or loan growth. Affin is quite close to their peer. But when come to share pricing. Affin as a group is a poor cousin vs it's peer. Not a buy call just my own view looking at the statistics

Without prejudice. Cape EMS coming qtr result announcement may be bad or below what management has previously guided. The way their CEO disposing her shares doesn't give any comfort or confidence.

Just to add on Sarawak State is the largest producer of natural gas in Malaysia. Previously sale of natural gas is channel directly under Petronas but now the distribution of natural gas is reverted back to the Sarawak State government under the purview of Petros { the gas aggregrator for the state licensing, distribution and retail} 13 multi national companies have received their licence from Petros. Another 3 more applications is still pending.

Me too are puzzled why certain individual label it " pump & dump". Reminds me of YTLP in their early bull run { a few individuals keep asking people to sell and dump the shares } from the 2.10.... right to 2.50.....3.50.....4.00..... Now the price is 4. 35 { even after the pull back}

Look at how YTLP perform {never a straight line} on /off pull back. Set your target price and trust your own judgement.. Banks in Malaysia are said to be resilent and closely monitor by BNM.. Stability and most of all risk adverse vs banks operating in UK or EU

Not a buy call. Just my own take how the 30% or more is coming from. Please do your research before you buy or invest

Sarawak has 4.95% or below the mandatory disclosure holdings of any one party holding > 5.0 %. Premier Abang Johari has make public to acquire 30% stake in Affin Bank. LTAT has inked the MOU to sell part of their stake to Sarawak. The largest shareholders of Affin is LTAT 24% { minus 4.95% sold} HK based Bank of East Asia 23 %. Boustead holds 20%., KWSP 5% and other Glic linked funds holds 2 or 3%. We cannot rule out other friendly based parties to the Sarawak State has acquired more stakes in Affin Bank. It's always a number games to have majority stake in any companies

Without prejudice to any parties. owners who have pledged their company listed shares for financing will be hit hard. The banks will be pressing them to top up their margin financing or forced sales their pledged shares..... Banks are like licensed ah long

A bank profitability really lies on its own ability to tap into the "Casa" deposit base against the spread in the bank's lending rates. With the State backing the capacity to increase its "Casa deposit ` is enormous. Look at PBB operations their huge 'Casa deposit ` is always a plus for their profitability. Not a buy call on Affin just my 2sen own view on Sarawak State share buy on Affin acqusition. Remember in the past Sarawak have 6 local popular bank operating prior to BNM/MOF countrywide merger and consolidation

To be fair to all parties. Nitrite gloves and medical gloves have the highest margins. Whereas volume wise. commercial or industrial gloves is the volume leader but with the lowest margin { not to mention contract manufacturing.}

Without prejudice. Maybank IB issue the down grade after thier team visited China 2 glove manufacturers. Yes. Agreed China growing capacity in Glove production & manufacturing is a threat. But the fact we remains Malaysia is the home to TG, Harta, Kossan all household names in Glove production. I suspect more selling pressure will apolies on TG by IB's. Prepare for more volatility

Without prejudice. All the 9 banking institution group is govern and under the strict supervision of BNM { unlike the late 90's where the banking industry before the meger and consolidation initiated by MOF and BNM. The current institution share holder{s} group of AFFIN consist of LTAT {28%} that is Armed Forces pension fund, Bank of East Asia {24%} Hong Kong listed companies and a long time strategic investor, Boustead Holdings holds 20% and our local KWSP holds around 5%. Other insurance, IB's, unit trusts and Glic link companies holds betw 2 %-3 %. Not forgetting Sarawak State owned incorporated corporation recently acquired 3% of Affin banking group. Not much of a free float if you really digest their shateholdings

Affin banking group has a total of 115 bank offices operating in Malaysia. Out of the 115 only 4 branch office`s in Sabah plus another 4 in Sarawak. Tremendous scope for Affin to expand is reach in the 2 Borneo states. Sarawak and Sabah once was dominant in their own turf having household names like Hock Hua Bank, Bank Utama, Wah Tat Bank, Miri commercial bank, Bian Chiang bank, Kwong Lee Bank and Kong Min Bank. Even UOB {Founder Wee} started his initial banking group in Sarawak. Sarawak is a rich state but through the bank consolidation and merger. The land of the hornbills has lost all the above regional banks

Contrary to certain views. Most anaylst{s} believed and expect banking stocks to drive the KLCI I 2024. Banking stocks constitute 20% of the KLCi index. In addition foreign funds looking to invest in the market are most likely to make a go in this sector. Banks have displayed resilience and achieved solid earnings in the recent qtr earning result. Not a buy call but repost a review by Kenny Yee of Rakutrade. Another senior equity analyst concurred with his views and cited renewed optimism on the market. Please do your own research before you buy or invest

Affin Bank was a drag and a laggard in the banking scene despite with LTAT {Boustead} helming the ship. With a change in the ownership structure maybe Affin can now reinvent and grow it's business presence. Affin started off as Perwira Affin Bank in 2000 and later merge it's operation with BSN commercial. For better or worse time to see a new structural in their business direction

Without prejudice. If DFX can secure part of TM upgrading works. The coming quarter's result for DFX will be positive not forgetting DFX operations and profitability will rise in tandem. Just my personal own view
