can it go back to its legendary RM70+ ?

Yes, if all illegal cigarettes wiped out. Even the most optimistic BAT investor also not dreaming of this. Haha. Half way at 36 also we can laugh all the way to the bank!

Yes, OPR cuts will only push high dividend stocks like BAT up. Very soon BAT will be back to the 15+ ringgit range which was it's price at the start of the year.

BAT from red can turn green on the same day. It has done that twice in the past 10 days I believe. Goes to show it's rebound strength.

When times are bad, people are stressed and smoke more. If covid crisis can somehow reduce illegal cigarettes by 20% or more, it will do wonders for BAT. Govt also need tax money coz they spent so much on stimulus package already.

Bye bye 12 ringgit.

At first I also thought Kossan would perform well as the third big player with quite low PE ration after Topglove and Harta. But it has underperformed and the movement of its prices is very erratic compared to other glove stocks. It made me wonder what the hell is going on with this stock. Today I gave up and let it go. I hope I don't regret it but wish you guys good luck.

Wow, back in the green. Really amazing indeed!

Amazing it has clawed its way up to almost last close price. Market down close to 30 points and all big blue chips are down quite a lot but BAT pretty resilient. Guess I should have picked up more this morning. That's my greedy side talking..haha.

Wow, unbelievable. Congrats to those who bought cheap. I regret buying Kossan instead of Ruberex and Comfort. Sigh.

Good price to top up. Yeah!

Wow, drop so much. Now I'm tempted to buy back. Ding dong stock..haha.

In my opinion, I think this is the last call for BAT at a decent rate. Above 13 I don't think I dare top up more.

Yes, all the attention is on the Supermax, Comfort and Ruberex. I wanted to buy Comfort when it was around 1 ringgit but in the end went with Kossan the bigger player. I made the wrong choice coz Comfort has jumped up by 50% and Kossan is still ding dong. Maybe Kossan will fly later but I am tired to waiting.

Sold at 5.68. Tiny profit but as I expected this counter after go up then very fast come down. Tired of this yoyo glove counter. Gostan fits the name of this stock. Good luck to those patient Kossan investors.

Picked up a few more lots today. Keeping for long term. Fingers crossed dividend for next quarter is still decent.

Glove counter is good buy but prices are very high. I bought Kossan because I thought it has potential but it's growth is so slow that I am regretting buying it. If I compare it to Harta and Topglove which I also own a few, I think Kossan is pretty pathetic. Every week I am hoping it can break the 5.60 barrier but it is still stuck at that level. I hope other Kossan investors here can give me some optimism.

Hi Superman. Thanks for your 2 cents. Yeah, I hesitated yesterday and missed the opportunity. Below 12 ringgit I think it's still a good buy but now I really doubt it considering the volatile market conditions. Let's see if it drops next week. Sometimes greedy is good and sometimes bad. Haha.

Yeah, guess I am just not a big believer in judi business. Haha.

Shocking it keeps going up with practically zero business from casino and hotels. Guess I shouldn't have sold this judi counter earlier.

Question for those mid to long term BAT investors: Is it worth topping up more at current price of 12.60+ ?

I watched the news yesterday reported over 5 million ringgit of cigarettes that were being smuggled from Indonesia were discovered and stopped by police. Good job by our men in black.

The BAT upward trend continues today. Enjoy the show..

Yeah, seems stuck at around .95 level. Don't expect to fly so soon but don't expect it to drop much also.

Looks like it's on track for another strong close today. Wish I picked up more lots when it was still below 11. Damn.

Not a company that I like but the dividend yield looks attractive which is why I picked up some. Think it can go back close to it's price just before coronavirus crisis hit the market in Feb.

Am just waiting to get rid of this deadwood glove stock. Supposed to be one of the big 3 glove stock. Big 3 my ass!

Just before the back door government fiasco in Feb, BAT was already on its way to hit 16-17. Now momentum is picking up faster than I thought. Dividend should still be good at current prices but need to lower expectations.

Businesses returning to full swing. BAT picking up steam..

Good closing. Still a long way to go to get back to the 30+ ringgit range it was a year ago. I'll be a happy man if can reach half way by next year.

just change name to gostan ....haha...

Haha, you are right! Now it swing back up again. Tomorrow swing again. Regret buying this stupid stock!

All the big consumer giants are in the red. BAT the only one green and aggressive! Not sure why some skeptics are still doubting BAT's ability to rebound.

Slow and steady. Just watch it keep climbing.

Seems to be the most frustrating counter of all the glove stocks. Very erratic swings.

Up up then back to 5.60. What a joke.

This is one roller coaster stock. Up down up down. I gave up and some mine around 3.90. Sometimes I think it was a bad decision, sometimes I think it was a wise decision - a mystery. I guess time will tell..

BAT showing resilience despite MCO extension. Good things await for those who are patient with the sleeping ciggy giant.

I always trust Harta more than any other glove stock. Just when you think it's overvalued and price starts to come down, then it bounce back up again. This is one stock that is very reliable. My only regret is not buying more.

I expected better from Kossan considering how high Topglove and Harta have climbed. Seems to be something holding it back from climbing above 5.60. Disappointing.

Regretted selling mine just below 4 ringgit. I wonder why it rebound so strongly with pretty much zero business coming from gaming and hospitality sector and very likely to have not much business for the rest of the year. Hmmm.

Don't underestimate consumer stocks. People need to eat, drink, smoke even in bad times..

Rebound! No oil crash is gonna stop BAT from flying again for long. Those who still dreaming of 10 ringgit can keep waiting..

Hope it's not because bubble burst due to overvalued. Don't think I saw this sudden drop so far.

What's going on with the glove counters? All big drops this morning.

What's going on with the glove counters? All big drops this morning.

Thanks Najib Zamry for your 2 cents. For those who say BAT dividend will drop, of course it will drop just like every other stock. It will still be better than most.

Hey Najib Zamry. Please share if you find other good buys with high dividend payout. I regret not buying more Hai-O which also pays not bad dividend. Of course BAT still the best and I'm keeping fingers crossed next dividend payout is still decent. Hope BAT is a longer term keeper.

Hope illegal cigarettes will reduce during and after this MCO. Then it will fly..

Finally the sleeping BAT has woken. Hope it starts to flap its wings and fly soon..

Weird that it can't pass 6.50. Topglove is a hyped up glove counter just because it is market leader. Regret distributing my investment 50:50 Topglove and Harta. Should have been all Harta!

Finally on the surge. Common!

Beer counters bouncing back fast. Why BAT so slow? Not sure if recent rebound is sustainable or not.
