MANY PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND EPS AND PE RATIO, THIS IS A PROBLEM. THEY SEE THE EPS IS ONLY 4.41, THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT THE PAR VALUE OF MASTEEL IS RM0.50 AND THE PAID UP CAPITAL IS SMALL AT RM122 MILLIOM, WITH THE PROFIT OF Q2 OF MORE THAN RM10 MILLION, IT LOOKS LIKE THE PROFIT IS LOW COMPARED TO ANN JOO. BUT ANN JOO'S PAID UP CAPITAL IS RM522 MILLION AND ANN JOO DID NOT MAKE PROFIT IN Q1.
Only news to push steel counters now is to upgrade tp and good future outlook statement from analysts/fund managers, otherwise no other factor at current stage...market volume getting lesser, next week 31/8 off, US Fed comments this week & early nxt week, tomorrow dataran merdeka gathering for MO1, so with all these happenings what do you think of coming bursa market movement ? Perhaps for 2-3 weeks quiet and it will come back for Malaysia Budget play.
Normally end product price goes up first, then only follow by the raw material. (Current steel market)
For example, if rebar price is low, so the scrap steel will also be low. If the rebar price has gone up, then the scrap/iron ore will follow.
Unless there is shortage of supplies of scrap metal or iron ore, causing raw material price increased, the end products (rebar or crc) will increase then.
So, don't just look at one type of steel prices, it's better read all types of steel prices to get better pictures.
Also, take close look at current steel market development, the progress has been very positive since Mar 2016
I am still learning how steel industry works, please share & correct if I am wrong in any area. Wrong but corrected here rather than wrong or miscalculation in real money, hehehe
Annjoo and Cscstel are making fresh multi-year high. If a stock like Mycron is at multi-year high, I suppose Masteel will get there eventually. It also shows how undervalued Masteel is. Masteel's highest for the last 3 years is around RM1.15
