hi petracot, please can you analyse the 2Q results? thanks.

Posted by petracot > 2012-08-10 12:25 | Report Abuse

The 6-month loss is RM40 million, but this include paper loss of RM38 million of tin inventory write down to current tin price. The actual loss is only RM2 million. Below are personal thoughts:

MSC is a pure mining company. Cyclical volatility is the basic nature of this type of operation. Currently, tin price of around USD18,000 per tonne is below average cost of production of around USD22,000. The current market situation is mainly due to lack of demand for tin as result of global economic slowdown. In 2 or 3 years time, when the world economy picks up, tin price could go as high as USD30K to USD40K. MSC earning could be RM1 to RM2 per share

MSC has been in the tin operation for the last 100 over years and will be around for a longtime. If one can hold out this present difficult time, there will be handsome dividend awaiting. By the way, iCapital owns about 2.9 million shares in MSC and I believe they are still holding it.

Base on 2009 crisis this counter drop nearly at 2.00 until today also not recovery yet.So OSK analysis actually can be considerate as fire alarm.

I bought at RM4.60, now drop at RM3.20. Should I keep?

Posted by Namoyaki Takarajima > 2012-10-31 13:05 | Report Abuse

Aiyohh! 4.60 when did you bought it? Sunny, Tin is on a downtrend at this moment. London Tin & Shanghai Tin also down. Johotin also down. This downfall is NOT due to their companies performance but due to the Tin global impact. Wait for a while if you are in a strong cash-position.

for those who bought at rm4.xx, I'd recommend buying in more to average down the buying price

Posted by sh2383jbt > 2012-11-27 22:47 | Report Abuse

Agreed with petracot, hold it for tin price up, it is only commodity stock in msia, good potential. Average it if u still hv bullet.
