USD is expected to appreciate 10 % if they implement 5 % tariff on imports. On the bright side, our exports will still be 5 % cheaper after the tax.

Paperplane being one of the top 20 Stock Pick winner has 1 week advantage bcoz his closing date for 2017 contest is 6/1/2017 whereas others was 30/12/2016. Salute to Icon8888 & Luvluv for picking their stocks on 30/12/16 eventhough they are also top 20 winners.

maybank should be trading at rm2.50 now (but unfortunately EPF, Khazanah, PNB, LTH are all supporting the price from falling in our smart retailer's hands)

Mr Speakup, when i am doing my financial study in the University, the professor told us they is the issue of compounding of interest and business retaining earnings, which are the 2 major point driving up the earnings of companies.

That he say, in long run, you will see the share price of good company will always go up.

I still remember the lecture the respected professor deliver to us, a few years back.

What killed the market in 98 was not the weak Ringgit, it was the high interest rate, which was a wrong policy by the Anwar led Ministry of Finance (mahathir accused him of purposely doing that to destabilize economy)

The government has learned the lesson, so this round they just let the RM falls without increasing interest rate

And it turns out everything is fine.

Presumably, high interest rate is a component to defend the RM

Planeplane, Latitude seems to be a better choice, since a major part of their exports are sourced in Vietnam is produces much better rubber wood than Malaysia besides cheaper production environment and possibly more cordial look by Trumpet...

1 to 5....... waiting for that day........all will cook in a pot yahooo

So far, the extreme measure like to force exporters to convert 75% of their proceeds into Ringgit, did not act as a catalyst to strengthen RM. The strong oil price (above 50) also does not help much.

Should Bank Negara raise the interest rate to catch up with the FED, this will at least flatten the up-trending curve if not having a solid pull back.

One thing to look for is whether Yellen will change her hawkish tone during the FOMC from targeted 3 times rate hike in 2017 to "Due to unforeseen global risk, we are not in a hurry to raise the rate, etc..." Then we might see a meaningful retracement of the USD.

If bank negara hike rate the domestic market will doom and if cut another rate food price will up ( inflation ) and ringgit will weaken..

Compare USD/MYR chart with Malaysia Exports figure/chart from the link below, and you will see how co-related it has becomes. Meaning, to achieve higher Exports, MYR needs to be weaken. http://www.tradingeconomics.com/malaysia/exports

@twobits, the target price of 5 is based solely on USD/MYR. DXY is on its uptrend to test 106 and 112.

speakup is right,bursa now really overvalue,maybank should be below RM 3,yet at RM 8.20 now is after a few times of bonus issues and the price should be more than RM 20 including dividends since 1998.the present govt scared to raise interest rate because many big govt bodies are tied to stocks. only interest rates can cause the downfall of bursa
