Normally they will sell oil
(1)Anasuria : 1 cargo
(2)Sabah : 2 Cargo


BUT
Q1: july to sep18 (when oil at high 85/barrel)

(2)Sabah:2 cargo

Oct - Dec18 (when oil at low from 85/barrel drop to 48/barrel)
(1)Anasuria :1 cargo
(2)Sabah :1 cargo

And let 436,000/barrel Oil flow to next Q (jan19 - march19)

its a joke to trade below recent high 1.24

PETALING JAYA: MMC Corp Bhd’s net profit for the fourth quarter ended Dec 31, 2018 (Q4 FY18) surged 59.8% to RM119.72 million from RM74.91 million a year ago due to the full consolidation of Penang Port Sdn Bhd’s result.

In a filing with Bursa Malaysia, the group said higher contribution from the Klang Valley Mass Rapid Transit Sungai Buloh-Serdang-Putrajaya (KVMRT-SSP Line) and

the absence of share of losses from Zelan Bhd also contributed to the improved earnings.
.....................

The group also saw higher share of profit from Malakoff Corp Bhd as a result of improved contribution at coal plants, lower depreciation, lower maintenance and finance costs, and higher contribution from associates investment.

.....................

Moving forward, the group said the ports and logistics division is expected to record positive volume growth across all the ports while the completion of acquisition of the balance 51% interest in Penang Port in May 2018 will reflect its full year contribution to the division’s financial performance.

“The acquisition allows the group to establish a strong foothold in the northern region of Peninsular Malaysia and complement the group’s strategic presence throughout the Straits of Malacca. Operational and cost synergies driven by MMC, would further improve the performance of its ports and logistics division.”

Maintain buy with a lower target price (TP) of RM1.37:

MMC Corp Bhd’s (MMC) current share price of 83.5 sen is cheaper than the value of its ownership in Malakoff and Gas Malaysia combined at 85 sen per share.

Effectively, the market is ascribing zero value for all of MMC’s other assets, with the most obvious mispricing being its port operations, which have generated steady earnings historically.

Going forward, we expect any negative news from the engineering segment to have little impact on MMC’s share price as its earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation contribution made up only 6% of MMC’s cumulative nine months of financial year 2018 earnings, with 87% from the ports and logistics segment.

reinstating GST...it starts as a rumor first...

on diversification, this is the simplest logic i can find:

say you have quality measurement rating of 1 to 10 for stock as indication of the potential return rate.

and, your threshold for buying is above 6

if, you were given 20 stock to choose, 8 have rating 6 and below, 6 stocks at 7, 3 stocks at 8, 2 stocks at 9 and 1 stock at 10.


how would you invest?
.....................

I think its better to go for the best 12 above than the 6 best stocks at 8 and above ratings.

Reason is at large capital its not 'worth it' to lose a significant sum as much as gaining it....

the importance should be more on preserving capital than gains.

as a rich man, the gains is more for pleasure than any meaningful consumption. For a poor kid its different, its life or death..either you make it or drown in the capitalist world.

Icon, i still think in reality you made much more than you had stated there...all your stocks like thong guan and johotin were flying...

Post removed.Why?

when capital is small...it was very easy decision making for me based on feel without detail study...but when capital gets big...i tend to get very worried at night...

ironically i have become super lazy to study in detail compared to when i had small capital...strange piece of brain i have

nice sharings there Icon, thanks

Libya unrest

“For me, the current major risk event for the oil market is the unrest in Libya,” Stephen Brennock, oil analyst at PVM Oil Associates, told CNBC via email.

“Oil production in the country has yet to be disrupted however I suspect it is a matter of when not if. General Haftar and his eastern Libyan forces are determined to seize Tripoli and with it comes the inevitable risk of supply outages,” Brennock said

I guess UP is the leader in RSPO

not UP meh? they are the one who made palm oil known to the world

walao lady sifu samo...this is the only thing missing in i3!

can we have lady sifu in i3 who do not fight?

capacity utilize only 42%? Then 150 M profit Jaks likely become 63M

Considering the costs of coal (1.4 Billion from EVN pocket per year), pollution, and the fact that hydroelectric does not incur these costs at all...

its very likely the above will be the reality.

CPECC may be happy with a return at long term bond rate....since they had probably gained indirectly by the plant supply scope from China.

Dear sslee, why a shortfall of 11% between Gross Generation and Net energy output? because of the below?

4. Parasitic load, transformer loss, line loss and own power usage.

I dont get it...are they then paid 0.015 $/kWh based on Net energy output?

ok...for defensive strategy they certainly makes sense...all of them having competitive advantage....brilliant selections....thanks little sifu.

all sounds logical....but for plantation isn't those already having thin margin (unlike UP) are the ones will be having explosive gains when turnaround? anything i missed?....but for defensive play its certainly good...as other plantation has to die first before UP

i think i will be buying one of these new stock you had recommended (already have harta and econ a little)...will know after i buy

Other than Econ, Harta...i did not expect at all the others from you...but looks good though...except QL

sendai could be a good buy at this price sifu qqq3...it can be explosive if business turns around well

The equity has grown by just RM45m from RM910m to RM970m, or just a CAGR of 1.2%


Its total short and long-term interest-bearing debts has increased by 132% from RM537m in 2014 to RM1248m in 2018, in just 4 years. Yes, RM1.25 billion, a huge number. The increased in the short-term debt of about 300% is particularly a red flag to watch.

mind boggling

guess the management who can consistently find reinvestment opportunities at higher return than cost of equity...'much better than what the market perceives' judged by the current market cap over equity...is the true winner

in a crude manner (with a fixed debt to equity ratio)...

ROE x EQ = COE x MCAP

MCAP/EQ = ROE/COE

someone need to create an id - 'Tun & Botak' power

all happened when Tun & Botak sit and makan2 that day...

sifu Punter....what are heavy in your portfolios now? other than econ..what can we buy after the recent project announcements

agree PH will never reinstate GST....

but that is a big bonus if it happens - perhaps it will happen by next election

the current Fundamentals of Myeg are said much better compared to the time when GST was there

i doubt much retailers are in here to say 'everybody is buying'..its more like those in the know are...

most importantly...to execute all these projects...you need an enormous steady stream of foreign workers for years

since whatever projects cancelled earlier had been revived...

it is only prudent to reinstate GST to support these enormous spending

think about it

70% of ECRL revenue will come from cargo load: Daim

19 APR 2019


KUALA LUMPUR: Cargo load will be the more profitable sector for the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) compared with passenger ridership as the rail link will provide a land bridge that will boost freight transactions and cut travel time significantly between Port Klang and Kuantan Port.

Council of Eminent Persons (CEP) chairman Tun Daim Zainuddin (pix) said that cargo load would contribute an estimated 70% to revenue versus 30% for passenger traffic due to its shorter travel time and greater reliability as a mode of transport.

“The ECRL provides a land bridge between Port Klang and Kuantan Port, shortening travel time between the two ports by some 30 hours.

“As a result, ECRL provides for a faster alternative transfer of goods between the two ports compared with the much longer sea route,“ he told Bernama in an interview Thursday.

He was responding to questions on the supplementary agreement signed last week between project owner Malaysia Rail Link Sdn Bhd and its joint venture partner China Communications Construction Company Ltd (CCCC) to manage, operate and maintain the ECRL rail network which would be built at a considerably lower cost.

Daim, the special envoy to Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, who managed to finalise the ECRL deal after nine months of negotiations, said the rail link would also connect Kuantan and Port Klang with the various industrial hubs, seaports, tourism nodes, and East coast state capitals.

In the process, it would stimulate new growth along the ECRL corridor, as a result of which would require reliable transport for the transfer of goods and passengers.

“We are expecting the cargo load to be the main contributor to the ECRL, but as development along the rail line and in the east coast increases, passenger load will also automatically increase,“ he said.

As far as passenger traffic is concerned, “we are talking about people visiting their relatives and about tourists being provided with an alternative mode of transport to the east coast”.

“In that sense, we have to ensure that ticket prices are kept affordable,“ he said.

To boost passenger traffic, he said the Pakatan Harapan government decided to re-route the ECRL so that it passes through Putrajaya Sentral, which is a far-sighted move as it will connect the east coast to the federal government administrative centre and “this is important for businesses.”

“This will also help increase passenger load for the ECRL,“ Daim, said, adding the ECRL would now pass through five states – Selangor-Federal Territory-Putrajaya, Negeri Sembilan, Pahang, Terengganu and Kelantan, under the renegotiated agreement as opposed to the original deal which covered only four states.

That means more people would stand to benefit from the spillover benefits of the ECRL project, he said. — Bernama
