Philip cost is 0.688. Anything below this cost is safe.

last time I came here on 31aug price was 77sen. now only 67sen. Company buy back 20k or 30k per day. why the company cannot one shot buy 100k 200k to show the company is undervalue kah.

agree with your comment. Buy lower better safety margin than philip. and can sell before philip sell. 100% safest bet.

"On the tendering front, GKent recently submitted a tender for the Layang 2 raw water transfer project (c.RM120m). Additionally, we understand GKent has submitted pre-qualification tenders for multiple hospital projects (design and build basis) whereby some have been retendered from last year. Besides these, GKent is setting its sights on the KVDT2 (Dhaya Maju LTAT terminated as turnkey) once tenders are called. In our view, tender outcome for these projects could be further delayed due to Covid-19 resurgence."

This kinda assuage the common doubt that Gkent is a pure political company to have bagged those construction project, esp the mega ones. It might have at one point but now it has experience and track record to back it up. Esp on LRT 3 as a turnkey contractor. Once lrt 3 is done and dusted, it will be unquestionable regarding their capability.

Even with just water meter, Gkent can still make profit. Gkent can never turn red. Just more or less profit.

A total of 6.46% of shares bought back by company. I hope could reach until 10% so less people holding. Remaining mostly strong share holders.

More share buy back meaning reduce the number of shareholders.

KUALA LUMPUR: The government will proceed with the Kuala Lumpur-Singapore High-Speed Rail (HSR) infrastructure project.
Finance Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz, in tabling the 2021 Budget in the Dewan Rakyat today, however said the implementation of the project was subject to discussions with Singapore.
"The government will continue the HSR project as this project is expected to generate a positive multiplier effect to the country's economy," he said.

I am don't know about Parkson results, NTA, cash in hand and bank borrowing ? But I know that Gkent is cash rich with very little bank borrowing. Gkent has been making profit every year and not a single losses since listing. Meaning the accumulated profit since day one until now is a lot.

Oil Jumps by Most Since June on Covid Vaccine Progress
Alex Longley and Matthew Martin
Mon, November 9, 2020, 9:54 PM GMT+8·2 min
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/oil-climbs-biden-win-spurring-105416567.html

(Bloomberg) -- Oil in London jumped by the most since June as Pfizer Inc. reported a potential Covid-19 vaccine breakthrough.

Crude futures spiked following news the vaccine, being developed by Pfizer and BioNTech SE, prevented more than 90% of infections in a study of tens of thousands of volunteers.

Markets globally surged. WTI climbed more than 10% in New York, while global equities soared. It led to broader strength in the oil futures curve, with timespreads also moving sharply higher.

A vaccine “would be the most meaningful type of mitigator to the situation,” Saudi Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz Bin Salman said prior to the Pfizer announcement at a conference on Monday. “We’re still hopeful that vaccine is found and that vaccine or vaccines spread and hopefully mobility would be regained.”

Since Covid first emerged, oil markets have been steadily recovering from the biggest crash in consumption in a generation. Transport use in Asia has rebounded strongly, but the renewed resurgence of the virus in Europe has continued to weigh on demand in the region. The emergence of a vaccine would not only help regions suffering form renewed lockdowns, but could also help spur the return of aviation demand -- the hardest hit corner of the market.

The relief in the market was seen in the profits from turning crude into transport fuels. Gasoline cracks in the U.S. reached their highest since mid-October, while those in Europe also gained. Jet fuel was also gaining relative to the value of other transport fuels in Europe, Bloomberg fair value data show.

Prices had earlier rallied as Joe Biden declared victory in the U.S. presidential election and began preparations to navigate America’s pandemic-hit economy out of crisis, with potential shifts coming on a range of policies from fiscal stimulus to Iranian sanctions. At the same time, Saudi Arabia said that OPEC+ could extend oil cuts through 2022 as the group seeks to re-balance the glutted market.
