If a stock drops in tandem with other similar stock, then no big deal..
BUT if one dropped much more than the others, then something BAD must be brewing....
....and insiders will sell first.

@jeffchan1901, noted, thanks.
YTLpower is trading near 52 wk high :p
It's a good dividend play....but due it's high price, yield currently is lower than MBB.

No other banks dropped this much today, probably insiders were selling on bad news......

Volume today higher than usual, the sellers must know something that other investors don't know yet.

April 15): JPMorgan Chase & Co led a surge in major bank shares after the largest US lender boosted its guidance for a key profitability driver for the year.

The stock soared 7.6% on Friday (April 14) for its best day since November 2020, to beat all of its S&P 500 Index peers. Bank of America Corp, Morgan Stanley, and Goldman Sachs Group Inc joined the rally, while the KBW Bank Index climbed by the most in three weeks.

The rally deepens the disparity between the stocks of the nation’s largest lenders and regional peers.

“Goliath is really really winning,” Wells Fargo analyst Mike Mayo wrote in a note to clients. “There is no evidence of a banking crisis except that it seems that JPMorgan has been a port in the storm.”

KUALA LUMPUR (March 17): Rakuten Trade said it will not be surprised if foreign funds make a U-turn back into the Asia market over the next couple of months, amid the erratic US market and the recent banking debacle.

Rakuten Trade head of research Kenny Yee said that investors are getting more risk-averse, seeing that the volatility in the US and Europe is increasing, and will shift their attention back to Asia, which they have been ignoring since the 2020 pandemic period.

“With their abundance of liquidity, they have been comfortable trading within their own market, but now with high risks there, I think they have no choice but to start looking at Asia again,” Yee said in the firm’s virtual media briefing on Friday (March 17) regarding Malaysia's second-quarter market outlook.

“There will certainly be a realignment of their portfolios. Some foreign funds will look to diversify their portfolios, especially for the financial sector. I think they are selling Western banks to look at Asia banks which, I say, are more stable and better capitalised.”

Why the other uncle is moving liao?

Haha :p

Unless there is high dividend payout from Gens, and GenB other entities are not negating the profits

Jokers who don't own stocks, please come later and tell us some good jokes ya.

So another knee jerk reaction for deep pocket to buy :p

Reiterate BUY, TP drops to MYR9.65 from MYR10.20, 11% upside with c.7% FY23F yield. We raise our COE assumption for Malayan Banking to reflect the persistent uncertainties in the macroeconomic environment. There is no change to our earnings forecasts and, as such, the adjustment of our TP reflects a lower implied fair P/BV. Maybank has a strong, established track record with respect to shareholder returns. In a range- bound market, its dividend yields should be the key driver of total returns.

Near-term challenges notwithstanding, we continue to like the Group’s prospects, underpinned by its M25+ initiatives. Our earnings estimates are left unchanged, alongside the introduction of FY25 numbers, with Outperform call and TP of RM9.70 retained.

Haha....good quote

We continue to expect MAYBANK to provide the most sustainable returns via its consistent market leading dividend yields (7%-8%) despite us toning down our numbers. This is further secured by the group’s long-term vision to ensure operational sustainability remains in check, and affirm its leading position in the market. MAYBANK is one of our 1QCY23 Top Picks.

FY22 net profit of RM8.23b (+2%) and full-year dividend of 58.0 sen came within expectations. Deposits competition will put pressure on profitability though the lapsing of prosperity tax and possible writebacks would translate to substantial growth in the coming year. Maintain OUTPERFORM but with a lower GGM-derived PBV TP of RM10.10 (from RM10.40) on more moderate FY24F BVPS. MAYBANK is still a Top Pick for 1QCY23 for dividend yield sustainability.

@Cslee1215, Agree !

MIDF Research maintains their ‘positive’ call on the sector.

“We believe that any weakness is a buying opportunity, especially given that banks offer attractive dividend yields,” it said.

Kenanga’s last call on the sector was ‘overweight’, noting banking stocks would be firmly held up by resilient earnings.

“(For those worried about the same issues here), look for banks that have lower portfolio investment risk, like Public Bank, and with high capital ratios like Maybank and RHB Bank,” Chua advised.
