The semiconductor sector continues to be favoured by analysts, especially the outsourced semiconductor assembly and test (Osat) providers.

The Osat companies have got it going with a strong sales pipeline and earnings growth prospect, anchored by their expansion roadmap and robust balance sheet, said TA Securities Research in its latest report.

“We also expect them to continue benefiting from the global structural growth in chip demand, alongside the ongoing acceleration in digitalisation and proliferation of secular technology trends like 5G, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, Internet of Things, robotics and vehicle electrification,” it said.

Not reliable person anymore. U-turn here and there just to save the share price… but the truth is out.. tesla performance likely not good moving forward

Just look at this news, you know how will Genetec be doing... down hill of course.... Genetec is highly dependent on below...

Elon Musk is considering a hiring freeze and job cuts of up to 10% of staff at Tesla because he has a “super bad feeling” about the state of the economy, according to an internal email seen by Reuters.

It’s silly to generalise all tech stocks for sell down. Some good ones like uwc, penta, vis, fpgroup, kgb, etc…can still hold/ collect..

Genetec going down…

Interest rate up or not... all countries are fighting to secure chips supply, and especially with the polarization between Us and China, Malaysia is in good position to benefit from it......

Interest rate up or not... all countries are fighting to secure chips supply, and especially with the polarization between Us and China, Malaysia is in good position to benefit from it......

its TP should be at least 4.60 - 5.0.. buy and hold for a year and you will be rewarded...

This stock is full of potential.... tech is backkkk.... onboard!

Tech is backkk....... on board the train!

Tech is backkkkkkk.... on board the train....

Also note that EPF has started collecting since 17 May 2022 and have bought 2.05mil of Sime shares...!

It is still a good buy... esp low price now..

It is a good bet on this news if it happens:
Sime Darby Holdings Bhd (SDH) announced that SDH and Ramsay Health
Care Ltd (Ramsay) have received RM5.67bn (or USD1.35bn) conditional,
non-binding buyout offer from IHH Healthcare Bhd to acquire 100% of their
50:50 joint venture Ramsay Sime Darby Health Care Sdn Bhd (RSDH).
Analyst is POSITIVE on the deal as it enables the Group to
monetize its non-core assets, with the proceeds may be partly used to pay for
SPECIAL DIVIDEND.

Even if this deal doesn't materialize, Analyst expects Sime Darby to ride through the wave and sustain earnings into FY23. Demand for new cars (2.5-3 months backlog) and industrial equipment (RM3.9bn orderbook) remain ELEVATED.

Also GOOD dividend yield of almost 6.0%! And also capital upside!

Good to collect when price is Low...

Shrinking profit margin is TEMPORARY matter, it will revive in medium term..

Don’t worry… u will see in the upcoming good qtr result in June soon and it will rebound

WASHINGTON DC: Malaysia is expected to garner RM14.62 billion in new investments from the United States (US) following the Trade and Investment Mission (TIM) led by Senior Minister and International Trade and Industry Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali.

Azmin said many US-based companies had expressed their commitments to expand their operations and footprint in Malaysia during his 10-day US TIM which began on May 8.

"We are going to make some major announcements in the next few days in terms of the total new investments that have been committed by these companies," he told Bernama and TV3 reporters here, Tuesday.

Thus far, Azmin had met several high-technology (hi-tech) companies such global semiconductor company Texas Instruments Inc. and global materials supplier to the electronics assembly and semiconductor packaging industries Indium Corporation, and he is scheduled to engage with more hi-tech industry players on his next visits to San Francisco, Seattle and Los Angeles.

Labour weighs on planters’ earnings (TheStar 28.4.22)

United Plantations Bhd, which is among the first planters to release its 1Q22 results, saw higher CPO prices as a double-edged sword to its profit.
A sharp 121% increase in the WINDFALL TAX of RM20.4mil REDUCED United Plantations’ net profit by a fifth to RM59.69mil in 1Q22 from RM74.83mil in the same corresponding period in 2021. Revenue, however, increased by 60.87% to RM642.91mil compared with RM399.65mil, due to revenue in the plantation and refinery segments.

On a quarterly basis, the plantation group’s net profit TUMBLED by 61.1% from RM154.15mil in the immediate preceding quarter (4Q21) while revenue jumped by 22.34% from RM525.50mil in 4Q21.

An analyst with a bank-backed brokerage said “IT WILL BE NO SURPRISE if more planters were to announce similar 1Q22 results as United Plantations despite enjoying record high CPO ASP in recent months.”

TSMC posted a 45% jump in quarterly net profit on Thursday, boosted by booming semiconductor demand during the Covid-19 pandemic that has led to a global chip crunch.

The company, which also has customers such as Qualcomm Inc, has previously said it expected strong growth to accelerate in coming years due to robust demand for chips that power everything from smartphones to cars and lifted capital spending for this year.

TSMC's revenue for the quarter climbed 36% to US$17.57 billion, above the company's prior estimated range of US$16.6 billion to US$17.2 billion.
