Morning Friends & Gentlemen. Correct Observation! Something must be Brewing if Kobay Holdings & Koay Family Buys Tech & DC Stock Kobay almost daily?

Recommendation:
With Dow Jones & Nasdaq surging! Now is Best time to follow Kobay Holdings, Insiders such as Koay Family to accumulate cheap Kobay shares currently disposed by Norges Bank previously holding 4.09% due to portfolio rebalancing?

Kobay shares are tightly held by substantial shareholders comprising of 61.3% Private Companies, 16.5% Institutions such as KWSP, KWAP, Tabung Haji etc., 19.7% held by Retailers & 2.5% held by Individual Insiders (Koay Family). Since weak holders and retailers already flushed out and many substantial shareholder's holding cost is RM4 or above from last RM102 million PP? Apart from Norges Bank, not many are willing to sell at current price.

Operators will go for the lower hanging fruit of RM3 before next TP4~4.50. The next run-up will be fast & furious! Accumulate on any weakness and we wait for the Breakout to the next wave of buy by Market, Institution & Foreign Funds etc.

#Individual Insiders 2.5% 7,993,794 shares
#Institutions 16.5% 52,809,255 shares

Why Tech & DC Stock Kobay?

Subsequently, the fit-out process follows, during which newly built data centres are fitted with essential components like server racks, power distribution units, cooling systems, and security measures.

This is the phase where tech players like Kobay with exposure to server and server-related equipment will start to benefit.

“If we were to put a timeframe on this, our estimate would be the period of quarter four calendar year 2024 to first half of calendar year 2025, which is roughly the completion time for data centre construction jobs that started earlier this year,” said Kenanga.

Malaysian Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test services (OSAT) and Electronic Manufacturing Services (EMS) players may be relatively new to the server-related business, but they are well-versed in servicing multinational corporations (MNCs).

With a strong track record of capabilities and reliable deliveries, they are well positioned to excel in this expanding sector.
