Armada can still perform during pandemic when oil price is historical low. moving forward can only be better. buy for midterm sure no problem. Main focus is not about how much profit it generate, is more on the amount of cash armada is creating every quarter. the debt had been reduce substantially for the past 3 years from 11bil ++ to 8 bil ++ it seems armada is generation at least 1.5bil cash each year. This is very healthy performance and looking at this rate, the debt level will get lower very soon. this year TP 0.6 is not an issue, looking at goreng price to TP 0.8.
I agree Armada's positive operating cash flow is prudently used to reduce its loans by RM 1 billion each year hence its interest costs are also down. Though its past impairments and depreciations ( around RM 900 Million in year 2020) of its assets were bad for Armada profitability but it generated cash flow to pay down its loan too. There is no information available in Armada financial report of its remaining OSVs values which are more susceptible to oil prices fluctuations which affects its charters business.
Whenever I buy more, it drops in value. And this time it lost almost 20% over two weeks. Harder than usual.
I warned when I did it at almost 50 sens lately.
But seems that this downtrend is now broken and we can resume way up. Have patience.
By the way, Investor King was right. My bid for 48 sens was 'unmatched' even though stock was trading at 47 sens. I complained and got no reply. But I have shares for premium.
Despite the recent sell-offs in oil, investors are warming up to the energy sector, which bore the brunt of last year’s shock of crashing oil prices and oil demand. The energy sector has been the top performer in the S&P 500 index year to date, despite the price routs last week and earlier this week. Some exchange-traded funds (EFTs) tracking oil prices have surged since the start of 2021 as investors turned their attention to industries expected to benefit the most from the economic recovery. Energy is one of those, and analysts still see upsides for energy stocks and ETFs.....
Suez canal looks bad. Oil price soared. A bit of a panic.
But everything that wedges can be unwedged. Especially with unlimited resources. Sooner or later ships will resume sailing the canal. And things will return to normal.
Long term players - better to wait for earnings and moving averages to move into all positive. Put impairments into span of 2 years ago.
Yes. Horrible news struck sooner than expected. Container ship refloated. Traffic through canal to resume. Oil plunges. But that is just short term moment of joy. Long term prospects for this ship unchanged. Those who sold - CONGRATULATIONS.
You guys slap yourselves hard, again if it didn’t wake you up. The grounded container is still there and will remain for a week or so. What happens to ARMADA tomorrow?
I foresee our daily new Covid-19 infections will dropped to 2 digits by end of April 2021, on that time Ho Sei Liao, our KLSE will spike up to break above 1,800 pts !
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
