please do think very carefully


see two macro picture


1. In Peninsular (West Malaysia )

there is a 52% diesel price rise

as such all industries will be impacted by a corresponding rise of 5% to as high as 30%

these will see higher cost

1. property
2. construction
3. construction material
4.logistic that send goods by lorry or ships

5. consumer food and drink which are bulky

6. Toll road owners
as lorries now see higher operation cost by 52% they will make less trip so less collections from till


others




2. By Nov 2024 if Trump gets elected he will impose 10% tariff (tax) for all and for China it will be 60% tariff

so all industries related to export to USA will be hit

two things will hit all


a universal price rise caused by rise of diesel 52%

a universal tariff by USA from 10% to 60%


that is why it is of utmost safety to go invest in East Malaysia stocks which got no 52% diesel rise there

and palm oil export is more to India and China (not USA)

Diesel rise, the lorries will rather forego the business just to save on fuel cost? They won't try to find alternative ways to charge back their customers, and just cut the trip (and lose the business)? If their biz totally screwed up by diesel cost and they close shop, will someone else who can make the cut takeover the biz?

Regarding taking less trip, that is cost optimization. Whether diesel rise or not, companies would already aim for cost optimization with less trip, not a new concept. Perhaps some would've only just woke up and realize they need to optimize their trip to save cost. I leave it to your imagination how many vehicles would be in this category

Chow Kon Yeow Misses Event After Being Stuck In Traffic For 9 Hours On North-South Expressway

A combination of public holidays, including Malaysia Day, Prophet Muhammad’s birthday, and school holidays, led to a massive traffic jam on the northbound lane of the North-South Expressway on Sep 14, 2024.

Penang Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow was among the many travellers affected by the gridlock, causing him to miss an important banquet in his constituency.

Chow had been attending the launch of the 100th Malaysia Agriculture, Horticulture, and Agro-tourism Exhibition (MAHA 2024) in Serdang, Selangor, officiated by Prime Minister Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

According to Oriental Daily, during the Zhongyuan Festival banquet, Penang Chinese Town Hall Vice Chairman explained Chow’s absence, noting that the Chief Minister had been caught in traffic for nine hours on his way back from Selangor.

WCE will have a new plan from Banting, Selangor to NUSAJAYA, Johor. I found the news from Oriental News Paper, refer to the attached link.

My question: Will it cause the share price to remain dropped as last time during the construction (Share Price: RM0.21 - RM0.27, for may years).

The Public-Private Partnership Masterplan 2030 (PIKAS 2030) launched in September signals the Government's intention to expedite infrastructure expansion by leveraging on private sector resources. Key potential projects (which probably never made public headlines) highlighted under PIKAS 2030 include the Kuantan-Singapore Expressway, expansion of the West Coast
Expressway (Banting-Nusajaya), Klang Logistics Corridor, Kuala LumpurKlang Expressway, and Pasir Gudang Expressway among others.

In the long run its definitely a good news
If they could expedite completion of existing sections before embarking on the extension towards Johor, it may not dampen the near term prospects so much

Posted by DestinyL > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Banting to Johor is a long long way to go, perhaps another 5 years at least lol
But it is exciting to think of perhaps Banting to Port Dickson to Melaka to Johor

Sector Focus: Despite the ongoing market volatility, we believe the weaker ringgit at RM4.375/USD could lift sentiment in export-oriented sectors such as Gloves and Technology. Additionally, the Plantation sector is likely to trend positively in line with the CPO price rally, while the O&G sector could benefit from the rebound in oil prices amid unresolved tensions in the Middle East. For defensive plays, we favour the Consumer sector, with companies like MRDIY and 99SMART being attractive options.

Stocks to watch:

Plantation: JTIASA, SDG, *SOP*
O&G: *DELEUM*
Gloves: *HARTA*
Consumer: *MRDIY*
Technology: *NATGATE*
Construction: GAMUDA
Property: IOIPG
