KUALA LUMPUR: Bursa Malaysia looks set to kick off the new year within the current level, with the FBM KLCI fluctuating between the 1,490 and 1,510 range.

Rakuten Trade Sdn Bhd vice-president of equity research Thong Pak Leng expects global funds will return to the Asia-Pacific in 2023 and expects Malaysia to benefit from the spillover effect.

“As we enter 2023, we are optimistic about the local market and expect participation by local institutions will increase, given the improving local economy and corporate earnings.

“Furthermore, the reopening of China will certainly inject some excitement into the regional economy including Malaysia,’’ he told Bernama.

He said Rakuten Trade is maintaining its 2023 year-end FBM KLCI target at 1,800 despite global equities markets in cautious mode given the heightened market volatility and still unresolved Russia-Ukraine war.

An analyst said the equities markets are set to be greeted by the Chinese purchasing managers’ indexes (PMI), which could affect first-day performance.

He said despite the country being hit hard by the surge of Covid-19 cases, it is gradually moving away from zero-Covid policy and will reopen the borders from Jan 8.

“Equities markets are sensitive to any worrying PMI figures,” the analyst said, adding that the US non-manufacturing PMIs are also due this week.

At home, the first Monetary Policy Committee Meeting will be held on Jan 18-19 when Bank Negara Malaysia will decide on interest rates and provide an up-to-date overview of the economy.

KUALA LUMPUR: Bursa Malaysia dijangka memulakan tahun baharu pada paras semasa, dengan FBM KLCI turun naik antara julat 1,490 dan 1,510.

Naib Presiden Penyelidikan Ekuiti Rakuten Trade Sdn Bhd, Thong Pak Leng, menjangka dana global akan kembali ke rantau Asia Pasifik pada 2023 dan menjangka Malaysia mendapat manfaat daripada kesan limpahannya.

"Dalam memasuki 2023, kami optimis mengenai pasaran tempatan dan menjangka penyertaan daripada institusi tempatan akan meningkat berdasarkan ekonomi tempatan dan pendapatan korporat yang bertambah baik.

"Selain itu, pembukaan semula China sudah pasti akan menyuntik sedikit keterujaan kepada ekonomi serantau termasuk Malaysia," katanya kepada Bernama.

Beliau berkata, Rakuten Trade mengekalkan sasaran FBM KLCI akhir tahun 2023 pada 1,800 walaupun pasaran ekuiti global dalam sentimen berhati-hati berdasarkan ketidaktentuan pasaran yang meningkat dan perang Russia-Ukraine yang masih belum selesai.

Seorang penganalisis berkata, pada minggu depan, pasaran ekuiti dijangka menerima Indeks Pengurus Pembelian (PMI) China pada Sabtu, yang boleh menjejaskan prestasi hari pertama jika angka merosot.

Beliau berkata walaupun negara itu dilanda oleh lonjakan kes COVID-19, ia secara berperingkat beralih daripada dasar sifar dan akan membuka semula sempadan mulai 8 Januari.

"Pasaran ekuiti sensitif kepada sebarang angka PMI yang membimbangkan," kata penganalisis itu, sambil menambah PMI bukan pembuatan AS turut dijadualkan pada minggu depan.

Dalam negara, Mesyuarat Jawatankuasa Dasar Monetari (MPC) yang pertama akan diadakan pada 18 hingga 19 Januari apabila Bank Negara Malaysia akan membuat keputusan mengenai kadar faedah dan memberikan gambaran terkini mengenai ekonomi.

Pada asas mingguan, indeks utama naik 20.81 mata kepada 1,495.49 daripada 1,474.68 minggu lepas.

Di papan indeks, Indeks FBM Emas naik 112.26 mata kepada 10,701.55, Indeks FBM Emas Shariah melonjak 230.83 mata kepada 10,938.55 dan Indeks FBMT 100 berkurangan 118.61 mata kepada 10,419.80.

Indeks FBM ACE naik 33.41 mata kepada 13,015.02, bagaimanapun Indeks FBM 70 berkurangan 172.34 mata kepada 5,308.33.

Mengikut sektor, Indeks Produk Perindustrian dan Perkhidmatan meningkat 2.86 mata kepada 181.78 dan Indeks Perladangan melonjak 229.45 mata kepada 7,084.68.

Indeks Perkhidmatan Kewangan berkurangan 122.72 mata kepada 16,501.31 dan Indeks Tenaga merosot 5.56 mata kepada 776.19.

Jumlah dagangan mingguan turun kepada 10.56 bilion unit bernilai RM7.70 bilion daripada 13.33 bilion unit bernilai RM7.85 bilion pada minggu sebelumnya.

Jumlah dagangan Pasaran Utama merosot kepada 6.51 bilion saham bernilai RM6.42 bilion daripada 7.56 bilion saham bernilai RM5.73 bilion minggu lalu.

Jumlah dagangan waran naik kepada 2.43 bilion unit bernilai RM360.02 juta daripada 1.54 bilion unit bernilai RM328.58 juta sebelum ini.

Jumlah dagangan Pasaran ACE berkurangan kepada 2.82 bilion saham bernilai RM1.05 bilion daripada 4.23 bilion saham bernilai RM1.78 bilion minggu lalu.

Bursa Malaysia dan pasaran derivatifnya akan ditutup pada Isnin sempena cuti Tahun Baharu.

Founder and group managing director Tan Sri Leong Hoy Kum said the group will continue to scout for and acquire new land, supported by its confidence in the M-Series of affordable homes and backed by healthy balance sheets.

KUALA LUMPUR: Mah Sing Group Bhd is optimistic about the property sector’s prospects in 2023, as robust demand for its recent launches of the M series properties enabled it to achieve RM1.69bil in sales as of Sept 30, 2022.

The developer is on track to achieve its 2022 sales target of RM2bil and has set its sales target for 2023 at a minimum of RM2.2bil.

Founder and group managing director Tan Sri Leong Hoy Kum said the group will continue to scout for and acquire new land, supported by its confidence in the M-Series of affordable homes and backed by healthy balance sheets.

“Beyond 2023, the mid to long-term outlook remains positive, backed by strong fundamental demand for properties due to the young demography.

“Demand for houses from first-time buyers should remain sustainable,” he said in a statement.

Leong said with its strong balance sheet and healthy liquidity, the group is continuously on the lookout for suitable land parcels to further strengthen its M series portfolio of projects that recorded very healthy take-ups.

He said the resilient demand is driven by continuous economic growth and healthy employment conditions,.

He noted that Bank Negara forecast the nation’s gross domestic product to expand between 6.5% and 7% in 2022 and 4% to 5% in 2023.

The reopening of the nation’s borders on April 1, 2022 also helped to boost property buying sentiment, while the employment condition is stable with the unemployment rate at a healthy 3.7% level.

“Although Bank Negara increased the overnight policy rate (OPR) by 100 basis points year-to-date to 2.75%, the current rate is still lower than the pre-pandemic OPR range of 3% to 3.25%.

“Many believe that properties are a good hedge against inflation.

“And with the recent news of expected increases in house prices due to construction costs hike and inflationary effects, many house buyers are choosing to lock in their purchases now,” Leong added. — Bernama

KUALA LUMPUR: Aktiviti memburu saham berharga murah mendorong Bursa Malaysia dibuka dalam zon positif pada pagi urus niaga Khamis.

Pada 9.38 pagi, penanda aras FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI (FBM KLCI) meningkat 5.55 mata kepada 1,475.10 daripada 1,469.55 pada penutupan urus niaga Rabu.

Menurut Rakuten Trade Sdn Bhd, walaupun terdapat aktiviti memburu saham berharga murah, sentimen keseluruhan masih agak membosankan kerana bursa tempatan sedang mengalami konsolidasi yang sederhana.

"Namun begitu, kami masih berpendapat bahawa ekuiti tempatan sudahpun matang untuk pengumpulan dan indeks dijangka menunjukkan lantunan dalam masa terdekat. Oleh itu, kami mengunjurkan indeks berada dalam julat 1,465 hingga 1,475 hari ini.

"Sementara itu, kebimbangan terhadap permintaan yang lemah dari Amerika Syarikat (AS) menyaksikan harga minyak mentah merosot teruk dengan minyak mentah Brent lemah menjadi AS$78 setong dan ini boleh memberi kesan kepada stok minyak dan gas hari ini," katanya dalam nota hari ini.

Dalam kalangan saham wajaran tinggi, Maybank meningkat lima sen kepada RM8.76, Public Bank dan TNB menokok tiga sen, masing-masing mencatatkan RM4.31 dan RM9.40, CIMB meningkat tujuh sen kepada RM5.72 manakala Digi tidak berubah pada RM3.84 dan Petronas Chemicals susut lima sen menjadi RM8.40.

It said that with a diversified revenue stream as well as an improved and more efficient advertising solution for clients, Astro is increasing its competitive advantage

It said that it likes Astro because it foresees further contributions coming from further uptake of its new bundle packages (content and broadband fibre) as it provides more value and cost savings for customers.

In addition, it said that it has a better value proposition of Astro’s content as it aims to become the #1 streaming aggregator in Malaysia with more streaming service partnerships in the pipeline.

HLIB said that further recovery in commercial subscriptions (which provides a better margin) as international travel resumes for Malaysia.

It is no surprise that the relaxation of pandemic restrictions and the resumption of economic activities helped to drive the growth and recovery in adex seen in 10M22 vs 2021. However, as revenge spending by consumers normalizes following the diminishing base effect and weakening consumer sentiment caused by inflationary risks, advertisers could be more cautious on their ad spend. We therefore downgrade our sector rating to NEUTRAL. There are no changes to our calls and TPs for Astro (BUY; TP: RM1.15), Star (HOLD; TP: RM0.31) and Media Prima (BUY; TP: RM0.54). Top pick for the sector is Astro.

Adex improvement. Unsurprisingly, Malaysia’s adex environment saw vast improvement in 2022 compared to 2021 as the country transitioned to endemicity on 1 Apr, allowing the economy to completely reopen. Based on Nielsen’s data (see Figure #1), 10M22 adex grew by 12% with total industry adex reaching RM5.3bn (10M21: RM4.73bn), following the country’s full reopening of economic activities. All segments registered YoY growths except for in-store media (-66.4%). Top 3 biggest improvements were seen in the cinema (+9.2x), digital (+33.6%) and radio (+29.4%) segments. Notably, we are seeing a bigger shift away from newspapers as a major advertising segment into digital as the gap between the two has widened further (newspapers vs digital adex for 10M21: RM722.3m vs RM815.2m; for 10M22: RM863.8m vs RM1.1bn).

Bleak sentiments. MIER’s latest Consumer Sentiment Index (CSI) and Business Conditions Index (BCI) for 3Q22 came in at 98.4 and 99.8 points respectively, which are both still below the 100-point optimism threshold (see Figure #2). While the QoQ improvement is noted, it is still too early to consider that as indicating optimism. With an uncertain economic outlook for 2023, any decline in consumer spending could negatively impact advertiser’s sentiment and thus lower adex spending. Other than that, the RAM-CTOS Business Confidence Index reading for 4Q22 came in at 46.2 (see Figure #3). This has declined for two consecutive quarters, with the latest reading below the 50-point neutral mark (i.e. >50 is positive, <50 is negative). Firms surveyed stated rising costs to be the main challenge faced with the weakening economy coming in second. Should inflation remain elevated, costs could remain higher for longer and hamper any improvement in business sentiment.

Weakening USD against RM. The USD has begun to come off its peak while the RM has regained its strength post GE15. Should the USD continue to weaken relative to the RM in the following months, this will help ease elevated newsprint costs which is a positive for Star Media, as its print segment might see margin improvements, whereas Astro might see lower hedging costs as the group regularly hedges its USD exposure.

2023 Outlook. With the merits of economic reopening mostly reaped in 2022, the base effect would start to diminish this year. A key dampener to consumer sentiment would be the rising cost of living which would lead to consumers cutting back on discretionary spending – this may in turn cause advertisers to be more cautious with their ad spend as well. 4Q22 adex should be stronger as advertisers spend more freely for the Christmas and Chinese New Year periods, as well as coming off the back of the FIFA World Cup. However, looking further ahead, there is a lack of clarity on the trend of adex following the fluidity of global economic events. For these reasons, we downgrade our sector rating to NEUTRAL (from Overweight). Top pick for the sector is Astro (BUY, TP: RM0.95) as we believe that following the recent selloff, most of the negatives facing the group have been priced in. Moreover, the stock has a projected FY23-24f dividend yield of 9.8%.

PROSPECTS FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDING 31 JANUARY 2023
Through the New Astro Experience, we are committed to realise our vision to be The Entertainment Destination
for Malaysians encompassing:
 delivering the best content experience across all platforms;
 becoming Malaysia’s No.1 aggregator of the best streaming and lifestyle services;
 enhancing local content with more premium Astro Originals;
 seizing opportunities for adjacencies in digital, broadband, advertising and commerce; and
 leveraging digital, data and technology to reimagine our business models.
Going forward we are continuously investing in our transformation for long term and sustainable growth, focusing
on content, broadband, streaming, customer experience, data, addressable advertising and technology to better
serve customers. Alongside progressive user interface and experience enhancements, we are committed to making
kids’ viewing safer. An increasing number of global streaming apps have been integrated onto our flagship Ultra
Box and included in our new Astro TV packages, for the best big screen viewing experience. We expect to
continue aggregating the best streaming apps and adding on lifestyle apps which are relevant for Malaysians in
the near future. Addressable Advertising is gaining traction in the market and is being enhanced with a unified
audience measurement on Linear, On Demand and OTT. We expect Addressable Advertising to have increased
industry adoption over time and to continue growing into the future.
75% of customers’ viewing is on local content, driven by our strong pipeline of Astro Originals and signatures
including One Cent Thief and Gegar Vaganza S9, while blockbuster movies such as Abang Long Fadil 3 and Air
Force the Movie: Selagi Bernyawa and Mechamato the Movie are topping local film charts. As Malaysia’s Home
of Sports, we are currently bringing Malaysians the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 showcasing all 64 matches live
to our customers in 4K UHD with High Dynamic Range (HDR) and HD. Astro Fibre, our own internet service
launched in March, has seen encouraging traction especially across broadband-content bundles, and was recently
made available to enterprise customers. We expect Astro Fibre to grow for the rest of the year.
On 16 November 2022, Astro won a landmark anti-piracy case against a commercial establishment in the Klang
Valley area. This is encouraging as it creates awareness and rightful content consumption behaviour. Ongoing
efforts with authorities will continue and the Group expects results of these to be accretive.
Macroeconomic conditions including uncertain global growth outlook, rising interest rates, inflation, as well as
global geopolitical events with ongoing implications to supply chains; are expected to have an ensuing impact on
households and businesses. The Group maintains a cautious outlook and will monitor business conditions, whilst
prudently managing costs. It expects market volatility to remain in the shorter term, both in terms of foreign
currency volatility and interest rates, and will be managing these with hedge instruments over time.
