Without prejudice or disrespect to any parties. Beryaya led rail group consortium submitted the RFI proposal on 15 Jan. Based on My HSR announcement only short listed company or consortium will only be invited to submit the RFP proposal after evaluation. Berjaya rail group has team up with multiple partners. IJM, MRCB, KTMB, Hitachi Rail, Hyundai Rotem and Deutsch AG unit DB { GMbh } engineering. Whereas YTL group is said to partnering with China CRRC { world largest rolling rail stock manufacturer } under I belt 1 road project initiated by the Chinese government. Soft loans and financing is undertaken by CCB { China Construction Bank} which is involved with ECRL. At this point we can only guess the group that has the expertise and proven TRACK record and deep pockets will be the winner in this beauty contest. Based on latest news announcement Berjaya group returned to the black in the first quarter { Sept 30} with a profit of RM 15.8 million against a net loss of RM - 16.4 in the same quarter last year. Financial wise Berjaya led group of multiple partners needs a huge cash injections from 5 or 6 it's partners. The HSR link cost is estimated anything between RM 100-120billion. the total outlay may even exceed RM 200 billion for the 10 year timeliness. We are not privy to the terms and requirements. We can ONLY make our own calculated guess. Just sharing my own 2 sen view & ideas
The Indonesia HSR rail link between Jakarta - Banding was financed by China Development Bank and a state run fund KCIC { 60 % Indonesia and 40% balance hold by China Railway Engineering} most likely the HSR rail link may take a leaf from Indonesia
Backtesting 2.42 ......, resistance turned support. UBS Group AG increased stake again .... good news, Lets see if YTL can scale to new ATH if can break out of 2.48 decisively.
HSR hardly make money.. how much ticket it needs to sell? cheaper than air ticket? BUT it surely helps landowner/construction/stock market make money instantly..
Landmatter is under State jurisdiction. HSR a federal project but needs State approval. HSR rail line runs from Singapore right thu Johor, Malacca , N. Sembilan , Selangor, PutraJaya , KL { DBKL } . Any project of this scale needs political aid to push thru
UBS has acquired around 6.51% or 713,836,073 units of YTL shares starting from late last year. Are our local IB investment fraternity missed out something which UBS has spotted hands on. Or is UBS analyst know something which we are not aware of
Zhang bro, i tak bergengkar dan juga tak berniat to do so. I just state the facts, thats all. Anyway its just my humble opinion. Be it ytl bjland mrcb or abc, we all are responsible to our own hard earned money. Only we know ourself the best. All the best to all! Cheers!
After visiting so many stock, ytl and power still my most favorable stocks because the most I gain... Because many billions dollars project as Catalyst with full participation from foreign fund..
This readers in the forum mostly practising high standard in sharing the comment... World peace... Wait for Chinese New Years Angpow from Tan Sri Yeoh :)
Agjl - HSS Engineering Bhd will be another big winner regardless of whoever wins the HSR project. The most prominent engineering company in Bursa. Just sharing TQ.

Further, MQ Research sees YTL and YTL Power as potentials to be added to the MSCI Global Standard Index in the upcoming index rebalancing on 13 February. Read on for an excerpt of MQ Research’s report dated 26 January 2024…
Company background: MQ Research hosted meetings with YTL’s executive chairman Tan Sri Francis Yeoh for MQ Malaysia Corporate Day in Singapore. YTL has a 56% stake in YTL Power (YTLP MK, not rated), which is developing a 500MW Green Data Centre (GDC) park in Johor, and is partnering with Nvidia Corp to build a 100 megawatt (MW) artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure centre.
Improving cyclicals, growth opportunities: Management sees steady earnings contribution from its utilities division (approximately 70% of revenue) and improving prospects for its cyclicals (e.g. cement, construction, hospitality). YTL is a bidder in major infrastructure projects such as MRT3 and KL-S'pore High Speed Rail.
Growth opportunities in Johor: Phase 1 of the RM1.5bil GDC will commence with 48MW coming online this year. YTL has secured SEA Ltd (32MW) as an anchor tenant. Tan Sri had indicated of a similar partnership that Nvidia has with Lambda and CoreWeave.
ERL extended for 30 years: Following seven years of negotiation, the Express Rail Link (ERL), 45%-owned, has received a 30-year extension for its concession. The new agreement comes with a profit-sharing mechanism, with the government entitled to 30% of earnings when internal rate of return (IRR) exceeds 10%. MQ Research notes ERL fares were unchanged for years since 2002, despite scheduled increases in the original agreement.
RM4bil proceeds from unlocking of assets: In the last three years, the group generated RM4bil proceeds from the sale of its Electranet stake, Dama cement plant and Genting landbank. Management has identified potential RM15bil worth of landbank in Malaysia to be unlocked.
Potential inclusion into the MSCI index: The next MSCI rebalance will be announced on 13 Feb. Macquarie’s Index Strategist sees YTL Corp and YTL Power as potential additions to the MSCI Global Standard Index.
Financials and valuations For 1Q24 ended Sept, YTL Corp's revenue rose 16% year-on-year (YoY) to RM7.5bil, while net profit grew to RM522mil (vs. RM37mil). Utilities earnings grew 300% due to improved PowerSeraya margins and stronger Singapore dollar, while the cement division benefited from higher vol and stable selling prices. The company is trading at 14x FY24E price-to-earnings ratio (PER) (Bloomberg’s consensus).
MQ Research sees YTL and YTL Power as potentials to be added to the MSCI Global Standard Index in the upcoming index rebalancing on 13 February.
