EPF does not determine the demand for gloves. Their competency is to raise the index stocks to make BN government look good! Where EPF leaves other institutional players will step in. Supermx is not an UMNO baru crony company, they have their strengths.

Not necessarily. Bursa has not been able to increase the retail investors for the last two years. It is being run by an overpaid CEO. Compared to its peers in the region some structural changes are due. Downward correction is imminent.

Anyone who knows LBS will know that they are famous for setting traps to maximize their gains. With the flush of cash they have no problem in taking the company private. On that day you will regret buying LBS. Stay away from the unscrupulous management.

Buy in haste and regret later. Protect your capital for now.

PAS is just playing to the gallery. It is all part of the job of politicians. Malaysians are the most practical people on Earth and they know what to do with their lives.

Well said lotsofmoney.

Selling in May and go away has much meaning in the US. Does it apply to Malaysia?

0.38 is the current support. Don't be surprised if it moves down further as the management lack credibility. They come to the market for funds and later try to keep everything to themselves leaving investors with nothing but useless paper.

The inevitable result of living in a connected world! Next Hongkong? Singapore? God forbid Malaysia?

The market will adjust the price accordingly. Digi is still one of the better counter in the telecommunication sector.

The first case of H7N9 illness was reported in Shandong Province, the Shanghai Daily reported today. The province is a major chicken-processing area in the country.

Two other new cases were reported in Zhejiang Province, which has currently has the most illnesses. Beijing and major eastern Chinese cities have closed live poultry markets and are taking other precautions to limit the spread of the new virus.

Nothing is natural in the stock market. Buying & selling can be fake. Malaysia is in uncharted waters. Protect your capital.

Any good news to support the price?

Do this sons/daughters really had a choice? When their fathers were humiliated and tortured they entered politics to defend their family honor. They have nothing to gain by entering into politics.

They should be given a chance to prove their worth. As long as they don't steal public money then it should be OK. Guan Eng, Nurul and Gobind has proven service record that speak for them. It is just a coincidence they fathers' are also in politics. They are also not part of the evil UMNO Baru.

One week of campaign show the feelings on the ground is now changing against BN. The unexpected is about to happen. Be cautious and Protect your capital.

Much needed sense of direction from chleong.

derrickinvestor, thanks for sharing the details. There is much resonance between your experience and the rest of us.

A good tip from chleong

"Average it if the price drop down & supported"

We are lucky to profit from chleong's wisdom without suffering much to learn it!

Yet another Gem from chleong

About 100 human H7N9 bird flu cases are estimated to have gone undetected on the mainland, according to university researchers who based the projection on people's rate of exposure to poultry in markets.

Other than severe cases, there are usually mild cases of influenza in which the infected may not fall ill, said Professor Gabriel Leung, director of the University of Hong Kong Public Health Research Centre.

RHB brokerage raised its fair value on Top Glove, the world’s largest rubber glove maker by volume, to RM7.11 from RM6.42. RHB lifted its fair value on Supermax, the world’s second largest rubber glove maker, to RM3.30 from RM2.68.

RHB also raised its fair value on rubber manufacturer Kossan Rubber Industries Bhd to RM4.15 from RM3.73 and the world’s largest synthetic rubber glove maker Hartalega Holdings Bhd to RM5.34 from RM5.07.

The research house said if the H7N9 outbreak worsens, Top Glove and Supermax would benefit most from the additional demand because of the firms’ spare capacity.

“Both Kossan and Hartalega, however, would not be able to reap the full benefit of the situation as both companies are already running close to full capacity,” RHB said.

chelong, you have shared the ultimate secret in making money in the market.

"buy when they support it at the lowest and hold, sell when they play up again"

I hope the readers here appreciate the profound observation you have made.

FatCat, can you push up the price to 1.10 so that i can sell mine?

Various analysts have done a more comprehensive review during the last few weeks and the market is not buying it. There is nothing new to support higher price. This is a politically sensitive counter and the price is being manipulated. Wait to see what happens when the traders take profit tomorrow. After nomination day, this counter will be heading south. Do your own research for what is worth than relying on analysts whose motives may not align with yours.

Old news

The price has stuck at .79 - 81 for weeks. Why should it fly now? Any good news from the government?

It is a question of supply and demand. If the demand increases as a result of H7N9 outbreak the demand will increase exponentially. Otherwise the demand will still continue to increase, albeit linearly, as people will be more health conscious and insist on using medical gloves. Either way you can't go wrong. You are still a winner. EPF does not determine the demand for gloves. Their competency is to raise the index stocks to make BN government look good! Where EPF leaves other institutional players will step in. Supermx is not an UMNO baru crony company, they have their strengths.

Abundance, what has Nissan's dividend got do with TopGlov

why? What is the news?

A worrying development in China’s H7N9 outbreak: There is growing evidence that the virus may have the ability to be transmitted between humans, especially close family members, and the Chinese government has admitted for the first time it’s a possibility.

What is the good news from L&G for it to move up?

Supermx is not one of component stocks of the FBMKLCI index.

It seems EPF is disposing midcap stocks to support blue chip stock so as to paint a rosy picture to the voters that KLSE is positive about a BN victory!

A very fair assessment by Kenanga research.

All indication point to the crisis in China will get worse before getting better. Time to support the glove companies and you will be handsomely rewarded in the long run.

China's top health authority confirmed that a family infected by H7N9 in Shanghai might involve human-to-human transmission of the new bird flu strain.

This is their first admission. But they need more conclusive evidence. Pandemic is usually declared when maximum damaged has been done. They may never, unless CDC and WHO force they hand.

roslaom "shaking off excess water; only then can eat"

what does that mean in simple English?

To add to diablo88 comment on temperature screening at airport

The main tool for spotting carriers at borders is infrared cameras to detect those with fever. Beijing is now reporting asymptomatic carriers (An asymptomatic carrier means a person has no symptoms, doesn't mean he is cured), which means the camera will fail. Thus border guarding will be extremely difficult.

When a first case is reported in Hong Kong all hell will breaks loose as HK is the international to gateway to the rest of the world. It will no longer be a China problem, it will be everyone's problem!

Life in China is tough. But the Chinese are resourceful people. This outbreak will help to improve sanitation and hygiene. Of course they will start using more gloves for prevention. This creates an importunity to invest in companies that produces gloves.

diablo88, the mass movement of people can exacerbate the spread.

I hope the Chinese learn that when you treat your animals so cruelly and uncivilized it only comes back to you.

Well communist government is not known to be liberal with information. The priority should be to save lives and contain the damage.
