More patience.. give until end Jan'18 for rebound above .90. Reasons: 1 It hold 70% mrkt share in msia. 2. Not a loss making biz. 3. Got expansion plan.
they're trying to scare people away. so they can buy it at cheaper price. that's why.. meico is under value now. It's a good time to buy. not sure why people are keep selling it.
Break support at 0.8. Next support 0.74. Release 100 lots to reduce burden. Still hold 300 lots.
Fund/major holder really want to kill all ikan bilis and later buy back cheap. This is not lousy cmpny but now become goreng counter. It may be insider game since they hold most of the shares.
warchest once the acquisition done - RM60 mill of cash flow out and add in RM60 mill of borrowings. good luck mieco 20/12/2017 11:54
warchest the owner basically using mieco to absorb the liabilities of SYF. 20/12/2017 16:13
warchest that's going forward Mieco may ended up paying for those liabilities 20/12/2017 16:13
warchest see the quarterly results of SYF announced yesterday - the board segment which Mieco is buying now for latest quarter turned from net profit into net loss. and going forward Mieco needs to fork-out RM60 mill for the acquisition via bank borrowings or rights issue as well as need to absorb additional borrowings of RM60 mill. This is not bode well with the future of Mieco 21/12/2017 14:43
