Q4 2017 net profit = 12,115
Q4 2016 net profit = 4,031
A growth of 201%

This is the correct comparison.
Not compare Q4 2017 against Q3 2017.

In conclusion, OTB ego is toooooooo big to admit mistake and cut loss!

Posted by Zhuge_Liang > 2018-03-02 20:00 | Report Abuse

Not true.
OTB strategy is to buy and hold.
If wrong, there is a cut loss level to get out.

The most important part in long bars is China long bars price, currently is around rmb4200 is on uptrend after CNY construction resume and winter steel production reduction is extended ( like Tangshan city, major production city) if attractive enough for Alliance Steel to export, Alliance capacity is a less worry, just m2c

When I see "sifus" and analysts writing articles to promote "Buy" call, I sell. When I see "sifus" and analysts writing articles to promote "Sell" call, I buy. Provided the company is not loss-making and has decent fundamentals and prospect, this has worked well for me so far :)

This author is revealing half-truth. Regulated short selling is allowed in Malaysia. Besides, although there are vested interests in those promoting steel sector, there are equally vested interest in those who called others to sell in order for them to collect at lower price. This is due to the fact that long term investors are not willing to release their shares to these new collectors

After all, if everyone is able to see the same value of a stock counter at the same time, then do you think there is any potential for the growth in price of the counter? Thanks to those who fail to see the value of the stock earlier, the stock can conti ue to grow

brightsmart, i have not performed any short selling as i am not eligible. But certain institution and licensed individuals do. Bursa Malaysia website clearly displays this information and the short selling regulation will be relaxed to all individuals soon subject to approval.

I agree that G Soros is smart and bright, but I highly doubt whether you are even half as bright and smart as him. No offence but just my 2 cents

Malaysia’s Steel Export by Country
http://seaisi.org/seaisi2017/file/file/full-paper/Malaysia%20Country%20Report.pdf

Asean 41%
Korea 14 %
India 8 %
Japan 4 %
Taiwan 3 %
China 3 %
Australia 3 %
EU 3%
USA 2% ---------------------------------- HAHAHA (negligible)
Others 19%

Plus, import figures of steel are much larger in Malaysia compared to export figures of steel, so Malaysian government's imposing 15% tax on import of steel bars or products into Malaysia has a much greater impact on malaysian steel makers.

brightsmart,

Your view on Masteel is incorrect. You have not done your homework correctly prior to presenting your opinion.
===============

and if you think this stock gives you good value for your money, to buy or hold, good luck to you. I have given you my opinion.

ps....this stock already given two bonus issues, do not neglect to do the necessary adjustments in your calculations

ps....steel as its raw material? what are you smoking or you commenting about Choo Bee?

Agreed not all of them come true.
I will be happy as long as I make money year after year.

Buy Hengyuan at 5.95, target price is 15.00.
Sell them at 17.48.
At least this stock came true.

Thank you.

not vested in masteel, but still i applaud your confidence for defending your points even though some of them might be incorrect.

1. David is correct in the sense that Masteel uses mainly scrap iron (besi buruk) to manufacture Rebar.

2. the big 4 rebar manufacturers are not exporting to US, and they are protected by anti-dumping measures in the local front.

If you can read mandarin i suggest you to read up on leoting's blogpost.

Good luck.

“The impact for us can be nothing but positive because higher steel prices are good for us,” Chief Financial Officer Marion Britton said in a phone interview, adding that Mississauga, Ontario-based Russel has operations in both Canada and the U.S. and does very little cross-border trade. “We are not impacted like a Canadian steel mill because we don’t ship anything to the U.S.,” she said.
