The list of stocks with momentum is generated using a proprietary mathematical algorithm highlighting stocks with a build-up in trading volume and price. The algorithm differentiates between stocks that exhibit positive (+ve) momentum and negative (-ve) momentum.
This list is not a buy or sell recommendation. It merely tells you which stocks are seeing higher than normal volume and price movements. The share price may move up or down from this point. But the "+ve" (suggesting a rising price trend on volume) and "-ve" (suggesting a falling price trend on volume) indicators should give readers a better idea of what the market is buying and when to sell. Note also that momentum generally only persists for a short period of time.
However, each stock has an accompanying fundamental score and valuation score to help readers evaluate the attractiveness of the stocks, if they want to ride the momentum.
“Induction furnaces typically make rebar and as those furnaces are closed down, it’s created a shortage of rebar and the prices have gone up,” Power told Bloomberg Television. “The margins that are being made in rebar at the moment we don’t believe are long-term and as new production comes in, we’ll see those margins comes back to normal.”
While iron has tumbled this year amid concerns about supply, as well as projections demand may slow in China, rebar by contrast has soared. That’s a divergence from the pattern in recent years when they’ve moved in tandem, with Shaw and Partners Ltd and Liberum Capital Ltd flagging the shift. Spot ore with 62% content was at US$57.79 a dry ton on Friday, down 27% this year, according to Metal Bulletin Ltd.
There are signs of a possible shortfall with nationwide stockpiles or rebar in retreat, although analysts say that the trend may now be easing as other producers boost supply. Inventories of rebar in China have shrunk every week since mid-February and are now at the lowest since December.
‘Shortage of Rebar’
“The elimination of some induction furnaces has indeed led to a shortage of rebar in China,” said Xu Huimin, an analyst at Huatai Futures Co in Shanghai. “However, we may be reaching an inflection point as demand has started to weaken and supply is expected to increase.”
Shifts in China’s policy on coking coal have also been behind the split between iron and steel, according to Power, who said he’s seen a “significant change” in the relationship between the two. When coal surges, as happened last year, mills can respond by using more higher-grade iron ore to boost efficiency.
Iron ore’s slump this year has come as supplies increased, including from top producers Australia and Brazil, with Vale SA beginning a four-year ramp-up of its biggest project S11D. In April, Australia’s government said it expects output from the biggest miners to top demand, hurting prices.
Power cited stockpiles of ore held at China’s ports among factors that had hurt iron ore. “As the port stocks come down that will keep a lid on prices,” he said. “But once things return to normal, we should see it trade somewhere around where the global supply curve is.”
Leader Steel presently has plants in Bukit Minyak, Sungai Bakap, Kuching and Klang. “We are now preparing to start production. “We can expect this segment of the business to start contributing positively in 2018,” she added. On the first quarter ended March 31, 2017, Tan said the group expected performance to improve by a double-digit percentage over the same period a year ago. “The performance would be boosted by the rise in steel pipe prices and the lower prices of essential raw materials such as cold-rolled and hot-rolled coils. “This first quarter would be one of the top-performing quarters in the past three years,” she said. Moving on, Tan said the group expected steel prices to remain stable this year. Currently, the price of locally sourced cold-rolled coils is about RM3,000 per tonne, while the price of imported hot-rolled coils, which is not available in the local market, is hovering around RM2,500 per tonne. She said steel-pipe prices had been on the rise since the second quarter of 2016 due to the stringent conditions regulating the entry of imported steel products. “Since late 2013, imported steel products need to have product certificate licensing and a certificate of approval to sell in the country. “As a result, there is less competition from low-quality steel products from overseas. “The anti-dumping duties introduced in early 2015 for hot-rolled and cold-rolled coils from China are also beginning to produce results,” she added. For the 2016 financial year ended Dec 31, the group posted RM6.75mil in net profit on the back of a RM167.3mil turnover.
By kenaga - LSTEEL had been forming an ‘Ascending Triangle’-like chart pattern over the past year, while it staged a technical breakout from its multi-year resistance-turned-support level of RM0.535 (S1) last Friday on strong trading volume. Yesterday, the stock formed a second white candlestick while performing a technical gap-up, closing 6.0 sen (10.62%) to close at RM0.625. In tandem with that, the bullish convergence of MACD and strong upticks displayed by RSI/Stochastic further lay a hand on the bullish-bias outlook ahead, albeit being in initial stages of being overbought. From here, LSTEEL could look to climb further up towards RM0.63 (R1) and possibly RM0.74 (R2). Support levels are tied at RM0.53 (S1)/RM0.43 (S2).
"The FBM KLCI's support will be located around 1,760. Nevertheless, we think the trading focus will stay within the gloves, semiconductor and steel sectors as volumes have picked up among these industries," it said in a note. http://m.thesundaily.my/node/452034

@Hao1983. LSteel's revenue and profit looks promising. It's a good move they are going to produce "rebar" soon. Bought since last week and average at 0.62.
LSteel price has been running side way since break out from 0.53 sen level, on 20-6-17, a significant technical analysis has been formed which signal the bullish reversal candlestick pattern. A hammer is a price pattern in candlestick charting that occurs when a security trades significantly lower than its opening, but rallies later in the day to close either above or near its opening price. This pattern forms a hammer-shaped candlestick, in which the body is at least half the size of the tail.
A hammer occurs after Lsteel price has been declining trend, Hammers are most effective when they are preceded by at least three or more consecutive declining candles, possibly suggesting the market is attempting to determine a bottom and simply indicates that the bulls are strengthening. The true confirmation of the hammer candle can only be made when the very next proceeding candle closes with a higher low than the hammer candle.
A Gap occurs when Lsteel price breakout at 3/6/17. The gap is being filled on 20-6-17. A gap closing mean the continuation of previous uptrend pattern shall persist, this shall further stiffer the further upside of Lsteel price in near future.
We shall continue monitor the price movement for the next few days
