Hi Dragon328 I may be wrong but I think the govt will have no choice but to go ahead with the HSR, esp if they do not have to fund it. Q1 had been bad! Oil price down, palm oil down, electronics down, no money for mrt3, etc Only a few bright sparks left in Bursa, but they all have gone too far ahead of themselves. Straight line up. A correction is most welcome. BTW I like Gamuda too. Common thing about Gamuda and YTL, these companies do not rely on Govt hand-out. They thrive both locally and internationally.
@cktay, the current government is keen to revive the HSR as this is the rationale thing to do to super charge the economy as huge construction work will flow through to various other industries. But the problem is no money. Here is where private companies with big balance sheets like YTL and Gamuda come in and bring in technical and funding partners from China or Japan.
But the sentiment is now spoiled by the coming 6 states election and threats of the green wave and Bersatu coming back to power. Dindin was the one who terminated the earlier HSR agreement with Singapore and paid out the compensation.
Let's hope for the best. I think I will hold on to my YTL., YTL Power, MCement, Gamuda etc altho my cost is very low. Only a bit disappointed with Genting and GENM. (Attended Genting AGM this morning)
dragon, i do not want to debate with you as well on PM. i myself bought YTL back to 2020 and hold until today bcz i see how under value it is. And i nvr hold stake in PM too bcz for me its alwaz too expensive no matter how attractive he is. But we as investor alwayz neeed to challenge our own judgement on why we buy YTL, why we don't buy other stock? through comparison at professional way, get away the bias we may have on the stock we hold, and with this our knowledge/information relates to the stock will be deepen and further fortify our belief/confidence on the stock we hold.
this correction is required, not such a big deal. already expected.
The state election will not have the impact on the HSR, neither it will have impact on the federal level decision making. Also, the earning majority are from oversea, the local political impact is almost negligible.
HSR from construction only contribute small fraction to the earning. The real earning is from the utility. That's the reason YTL is falls under utilities sector & their utilities earning are showing growth.
Just focus on the utility earning & the earning is from the oversea. The rest are just interference.
The strong rally in the US stock market may have a positive spill over effect to the world market including Malaysia. Let's see how the Malaysian market perform next Tuesday 06--06-2023
Foreign money is not coming into this corrupted, economic malaise-ridden country. The money is in safer more dependable markets like Japan...thank goodness I have more than six figures in the land of the rising Sun now, ever since my first stock purchase there in 2017 =)
YTL is also listed in Tokyo btw...but my most recent purchase is landlord Mitsubishi Estate for ¥1,638, with 7 🎌 winners already in the bag so far in '23.
dompeilee, You are knowledgeable as you even noted that YTL is also listed in Japan.
But we should realize that with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim ' s leading in the government, he has cleansed some of the corruption rubbish or at least reduced further corruptions. Our Malaysian government with his reign is much better and more efficient now . That's what the foreign investors would consider before they park their funds in certain countries.
Hopefully Japanese Fund Managers will also invest their money here.
@yong1985cm, my intention of putting up the comparison of Press Metal vs YTLPower was not to derate PM, but rather to highlight the possibility that YTLP may be re-rated to similar level of PM, both of which are great companies.
I first bought into PM when its first phase aluminium plant started commercial operations in Sarawak back in 2000s, and I have made almost 7x by holding onto it for few years. I admired the vision and bold decision of the boss and thought that the cheap electricity it capitalised on in Sarawak would give it great competitiveness against regional players.
Now I see another growth story in YTLP, just like what we have witnessed in PM. Don't miss the boat!
But there are always challenges in any growth story for a company. In the case of YTLP, it faced great challenges in the Jordan project during construction during Covid-19 times and then encountered counter-party challenges when it was about to complete the construction. The case is still pending an international arbitration judgement but Jordan needs power so YTLP's plant was required to run up anyway. Then Wessex Waters was hit by high inflation and high interest rates that eroded almost all its profits in past 2 quarters. These challenges test the wisdom of the management.
PowerSeraya is on high ground now as the electricity supply is tight and hence generation and retails profit margin is good. But before that, it was hit by over-supply situation that pushed it into losses for several quarters, and there was nothing it could do about it besides cost cutting and capital preservation. There will be challenges in the future for sure, eg. the RE power import by 2035, you need to get satisfied with the ability of the company management to deal with such challenges and ensure the long term growth and viability of the company.
I would love YTL more if the co. didn't have so MANY d@rned tickets outstanding! Reversals can also be huge, as can be seen from its decline after peaking in 2012 & in 2019-2020.
It was only one of a small minority of 723 LOSERs on the Tokyo market today( vs 3,285 GAINERs), down 2 yen or 7.4% on 100,000 volume. The highlight of my Japanese portfolio is speculative Katsuragawa Electric which soared 52 yen(8.3%) & a record 4 paper profits available to be taken if I so choose...So my prediction of a re-test of the Nikkei's 38,957.44 record within the year on my blog made in May seems to have a good possibility of coming true!=)
Fortunately, I shifted some of the funds from my partial YTL sales into Petron @ 4.53, which is performing beautifully... =) Those who have less than a 3-year holding timeframe for this stock, better not touch...
Dividend announcement end of August. Many ppl have no patience to wait so long. End of Aug result also may be nowhere near as stellar as May's results.
Saya mula beli YTLP lebih kurang 20 tahun yg lalu, kemudian mula beli YTL. Melalui dividend, saham yg diterima, pulangan cukup baik. Lagi pun, masa tak lama lagi adalah peluang dapat pulangan yg banyak.
In its latest research report on YTL out this morning, CIMB raised tp for YTL to RM1.28 while it upgrades MCement and YTLPower.
One surprise the report mentions about is that YTL put in the lowest price for MRT3 above ground civil work package at under RM11 billion. YTL partnering CRCC also bidded for the turnkey signalling package valued at RM7.0b to RM10b. These jobs will increase demand for cement as well.
