It is soon going RM2500/MT, local contractors who did not make order previous quarter will cry. Whether you believe or not, Malaysia rebar is still among the cheapest countries in the World.
Please check historical records before saying it is too fast. Many members here have been holding for more than 3 months when price was around 1.65-1.75.
it is possible to hit 3.50 if next and subsequent quarters show promising performance. but i think the price might only hit rm2.50 - 2.80 by end of this year
VenFx. I really like your projection. Haha. If Q2 EPS is 5 cents, Q3 EPS is 15-20 cents, then adding these on top of the 16.2 cents EPS in the past 2 quarters would give 36-41 cents. With continued uptrend in steel price suggesting an even better Q4, this is achievable. It's about time these steel counters break PE 7-8.
MrPauper, 'only' RM 2.50- 2.80. Haha. XD I also think this range is more likely (maybe almost guaranteed with the current price trend), with some hope that it can cross the RM 3.00 hurdle.
And, thanks for the advice earlier to grab more just before it went even higher.
Let's calculate in a simple way: Eps: 4.6+8.67+7.54 + (7 Sen forecast +assumption) = 27.81 Sen Take average pE8 8*27.81sen = rm2.22 will be our first target price Potential gain from rm1.90 still have 16% upside Let's say 1.75 is first support , Risk :reward = 15sen :32sen In term of risk to reward ratio, worth to give a try ~ Ride on the uptrend~ It's One of the gem in steel industry ~

Southern Steel?
Hong Leong Bank Quek Leng Chan wanted to privatise Southern Steel at RM2.10 some time ago. However, there was opposition and they bidded up Southern Steel to over RM2.20. So the privatisation failed.
A similar case is Perak Corp which was offered to take private at RM3.90 but substantial owners rejected it thinking it was still too cheap a price. So the deal was called off. Subsequently Perak Corp crashed more than 40% to RM2.20.
Coming back to Southern Steel. After the privaisation failed the price crashed by 50% from RM2.20 to RM1.10.
Reasons were due to China Steel dumping. Hopefully, with the help of Malaysian Govt putting a restriction on cheap steel imports from China plus the impending implemention of massive public construction works the fortunes of Southern Steel will turn for the better.
Apart from Prestar, Southern Steel are the 2 steel companies that give good dividends year in and year out
Southern Steel is also one of 3 Long Steel makers apart from Masteel & Ann Joo Steel. With the Construction of Highways, More Highrise Condos, MRT & Bullet Train the demand for Long Steel will Surge further.
I personally hope that it will cross rm3 by this year end too with some help from the exceptional good performance in q3 and a sustainable high asp coupled with reasonable cos and robust demand. Even if it is just rm2.40, i think a 100% return for a year isn't too bad a return.. hahaha.. letz celebrate together coming this year end
As for calvintaneng, the day you posted your recommendation on 2 jan 2015, ssteel price was around rm1.10. It was on a downtrend until the price slumped to as low as around rm0.70 in march 2016, equivalent to almost 40% loss. I don't know who will ever hold a stock for 40% paper loss without cutting loss with everyday have to hope for the price to turnaround. If i am your follower that time, i think i would have jumped down the bridge. You are more like writing a hundred of posts, when the price really jacked up then came out to claim credit. Maybe i should start to highlight a few stocks too hoping one day i can find some followers hoping they wont jump down the bridge
On the other end, i think credit should really be given to leoting and few others for being spot on in identifying the potential of uptrend in the steel industry, particularly long steel. Although i only started noticing leoting's blog posts after i bought into ssteel based on its improving fundamentals, he is really convincing in providing those affirmative information which is not easily available as an ordinary fa investor and i thanked him for that
profit margin = 100 x (profit / average selling price) profit =average selling price - cost of goods sold Hence, profit margin /100 = ( average selling price - cost of goods sold ) / average selling price
John Lu Sochai calvin give 100 stocks...when one of the stock jump after soany years of his call, he will jump out and claim credit..low life. 18/08/2017 02:14
Agreed to Venfx. Teck stocks have been running since the beginning of year, not much meat to eat there, those good one with great results already fairly valued.
