Beijing State media reported today that the total number of H7N9 bird flu cases increased by 14 yesterday to 77, the biggest one-day increase in new cases to date. But it is not pandemic yet.

Unreasonable price increase without a proper reason maybe pose a risk those who are risk averse, unless of we are missing something? Anyone who has traveled to China lately can update us the situation on the ground?

The highest recorded price for supermx is 2.20 during the early stages of the breakout. If the problem gets bigger the price should increase correspondingly.

It is sad indeed China is facing another Evian flu problem. What china uses is medical grade rubber gloves. Topglov and Supermx produce them and they should see increased sales. Whether China is keen to use
nitrile gloves is not known. Hartalega and Kossan which specializes in nitrile gloves may also benefit if the problems spreads to other countries.Ruberex do not produce medical grade gloves. The price increase is mere speculation!

Game over!

Drop in oil price does not confer any competitive advantage to MAS. All players in the industry benefit equally. MAS has an unenviable track record of short changing minority interest and no one is keen anymore. Be wise, don't get burnt the second time!

Huayang has seen better days. Wait for retracement correction and do factor in the election madness that is upon us.

This is a strange company that bags many contacts but its share value does not reflect that. Don't be fooled by this contracts. What matters is their earnings and cash position.

Financial Sustainability = 1 / 3
Performance Changes = 1 / 3
Cash Position = 0 / 4

Total Buy Vol = 81,700
Total Sell Vol = 17,600

Price moves up by 18.0

Someone is trying to pull wool your eyes.
Don't let them make money at your expense!

MAS has a low trust factor. I will use my money for Dom Pérignon instead.

Stock investment gurus tell us that there are 3 scenarios where you should sell your stock;

1. The stock becomes grossly overvalued and is at risk of correcting downwards
2. When a better, undervalued investment opportunity comes along which you need to free up funds for
3. When a company's long-term business fundamentals are compromised, affecting its intrinsic value.

If any of the above three scenarios crop up, you should seriously reexamine that company and decide whether it might be better to sell its stock. If not, then continue to hold on to your winners and watch their value, stock price and dividend payouts increase over time year after year and only consider selling them when one of the three sell scenarios happen.

I have never heard any Gurus saying you should sell when an election for house of representative is imminent. I am told a lot of investors will be dropping their stocks like a ball in the next few weeks. Why is this happening in Malaysia?

I like that.

Despite affin's glowing report on HAIO, there seem to be no buyers for this stock. Every day it drops by 2-3 points.

Something is not right about LBS. You sell land and get a lot of cash. Yet no one wants to buy this stock! What are we missing here?

Rubberex does not make medical glove! It is just being speculated. It will drop by 5 points today and rise again by 5 points tomorrow morning. Don't get into the speculators trap.

Buy Topglove or Supermax. They produce real medical gloves.

It seems China has handled the outbreak quite badly. It is now escalating to other regions in the north. All hell will break loose when a first case is identified in Hong Kong. Hang on to you rubber glove stocks.

Huayang has dropped by .10 today. There was no fundamental reasons for it to move up that high last week. Cashing-in before the nomination day?

All the analysts had a buy call last week. But price did not move up! What happened? ALAM is on a downtrend? Any bad news? Or is it GE has finally started to affect all the politically connected counters?
