On May 27, INTA announced that it had obtained the fourth construction contract of the year, obtained RM199mil from SimeProp, and received an RM942.1 mil contract in the past two months.
$INTA(0192.MY)$
The 24Q1 results were announced on May 28. Profits have been growing for 5 consecutive quarters in QOQ. The RM7.052mil contract is also the second-highest in history, and the performance is outstanding.
The most important thing for construction companies is to have enough construction contracts. Fewer construction contracts mean that future turnover will decline. INTA had fewer contracts in 2023, so it fell to a 4-year low. Although the 2023 results were excellent, the stock price did not improve without many new contracts.
Until the company frequently obtained contracts this year, the company's value finally blossomed, and the stock price showed strong performance this year. By the end of March, the company had a contract of RM1,766 mils, which is enough for INTA to keep busy until 2026. TA Securities Bank's target price is 62 points, and RHB-OSK also selected this company as the TOP 20 Small Cap 💎, which is expected to grow in value in the future.

MASTER delivered excellent Q1 results. Although the turnover grew by only 3%, net profit increased by 45.1%. Mainly because the increase in cash drives interest income and margin increases, I believe margin will continue to improve throughout 2024.
$MASTER(7029.MY)$
In 2020Q3, due to the impact of the pandemic, the company's 12-month TTM Net Profit fell to 10.4 mil. Over the next 14 quarters, MASTER achieved 12 quarters of growth and 2 quarters of decline. Recently, YOY has been growing for 7 consecutive quarters.
The opening of the Vietnam 🇻🇳 market in 2018 led to an increase in the company's turnover and continued progress in profits. Turnover growth has slowed in recent years, but profits have been growing by double digits for 4 consecutive years.
Due to limited information in the annual report and quarterly report, the author speculates that Master is continuously introducing novel machines to increase margin and do a good job of controlling costs. The continuous increase in cash brings more interest income, so margin has increased.
The main growth in 2023 comes from the solar energy sector, while the rest of the sectors experienced varying degrees of decline. Entering Q1 2024, solar energy is still the biggest contributor, and the electronics sector also grew by RM0.7 mile in QOQ. In the outlook, management mentioned that E&E electronic products are expected to recover, so they can continue to grow in 2024.

In the past, when the index soared, Bank 🐯 and Public Bank 🏦 took the lead. Unfortunately, PBBANK's profit YOY has declined for two consecutive quarters. YOY fell 3.5% in the latest quarter, causing the stock price to drop 2.6% this year (10 percent dividend was paid in March).
Therefore, in this round of MAYBANK and CIMB, the two bank stocks with the largest assets stormed the index. With TENAGA and Yang Jia Shuangxiong, more than two-thirds of the increase in the index this year came from these five companies.
$TENAGA(5347.MY)$ $YTL(4677.MY)$ $YTLPOWR(6742.MY)$
For the index to rise, the banking sector must perform well, because the banking sector accounts for 41% of the index. Yesterday, MAYBANK handed over its 2024Q1 results, growing 9.8% year on year. Turnover and profit are all record highs. Coincidentally, last quarter's PAT was RM2,388 mil, and this quarter RM2,488 mil. I also congratulate you 🎊 Malaysian Stock 888!
$MAYBANK(1155.MY)$
The total share of MAYBANK and CIMB indices is 23%. As long as these two companies stabilize and slowly rise, they can at least maintain the lower limit of the index. The remaining few bank stocks are assumed to be able to hand over single-digit% growth without lagging behind, and the market will basically stabilize.

Assuming the rest of industry, healthcare, consumption, and electricity...

In 2021, the price of shipping 🚢 skyrocketed, and it was hard to find a container. There was Malaysia's Glove 🧤 frenzy in 2020, and Taiwan also had the Age of Discovery in 2021. The three major shipping companies, Evergreen Shipping, Wanhai, and Yangming, skyrocketed 10-20 times. Meanwhile, Malaysia's HARBOUR also broke through a new high of RM1.73 in September 2021, and the single-day limit was up 30% on September 29, 2021.
⚠️ Container shipping stocks are cyclical stocks. They can only be in the short to medium term, not suitable for the long term ⚠️⚠️
Beginning in April, freight rates on European and American routes have been rising steadily, leading to a sharp rise in demand for containers in China and Taiwan. There are many factors that have caused the increase in freight rates 📈. One of them is that shipping companies are taking advantage of this opportunity 🈹️ and there is also talk of a wave of chives.
The picture above shows the stock price trends of Taiwan's Sanjiong, China's COSCO Sea & Air, and Malaysia's HARBOUR. Taiwan's Q1 has been released, and Q2 is expected to be better. Meanwhile, the Malaysian stock company HARBOUR is still awaiting Q1 results, and its counterpart SYGROUP has been trending very well over the past month.
$SYGROUP(5173.MY)$
The chart above shows the stock price trend over the past 6 months.
At the end of August last year, the Moo Moo community shared that Harbor's cash flow was very strong. At the time, the stock price was in the RM1.20 range. Since the Age of Discovery in 2021, HARBOUR has caught that round of wealth and kept cash for years...

There has always been a saying in the stock market that the Five Poor, the Six Terrible, and the Seven Turns Out. However, the author still believes that a brief downgrade/pullback for good companies is inevitable, so they will not deliberately open positions in May.
How hot is May 🔥 Naturally, everyone feels that it is not unusual for some popular stocks to rise 30-50% in the past month. However, this wave of bullish momentum has also benefited some single-digit PE companies that have been underestimated for a long time.
$CCK(7035.MY)$
CCK is a frozen retail food company from SARAWAK in East Malaysia. The company's branches grew from 72 in 2022 to 75. Sales in all countries grew steadily, and sales from Japan grew by almost 100% in 2023.
Although there was a one-time profit in Q3 2022 and Q4 2023, after deduction, the company continued to grow for two consecutive years. CCK has been in Single Digit Pe for a long time in the past 2 years, and is far behind its peers. Malaysian stocks are booming this time, and the value of CCK has finally blossomed due to the influx of hot money. The stock price has risen 42% in the past month.
Furthermore, the shipping company Harbor has been making huge profits in freight rates for the past 3 years, although profits in the past few quarters have been affected by falling freight rates 📉. Recently, however, business has begun to improve, and profit Qoq has recovered. Coupled with soaring shipping costs in Europe and the US, GDP recovery and export growth in Q1, HARBOUR, which involves transportation and integrated logistics, was also seen by the market, and its stock price has risen 22% over the past month.

Today, the glove stock once again became the most beautiful boy in the game.
The main reason was that the US escalated the trade war to a higher level.
Yesterday evening,
The US President's Office announced the latest round of import tariff lists for Chinese products, which has drastically raised import tariffs on specific products from China. The products involved are as follows:
1. Steel and aluminum (2024, increase from 0-7.5% to 25%)
2. Semiconductors (increase from 25% to 50% in 2025)
3. Electric vehicles (2024, increase from 25% to 100%)
4. Lithium-ion batteries (increase from 7.5% to 25% in 2024)
5. Electric vehicle battery components (increase from 7.5% to 25% in 2024)
6. Solar cells (2024, increase from 25% to 50%)
10. Medical syringes and needles (increase from 0% to 50% in 2024)
7. Personal protective equipment, including certain respirators and masks (in 2024, increase from 0-7.5% to 25%)
8. Rubber medical and surgical gloves (2026, increase from 7.5% to 25%)
This measure,
Nominally, in addition to encouraging the localization of American products,
It is also expected that it will allow American importers,
Shifting the source of product imports to Southeast Asia/South American countries.
Conceptually,
The beneficiaries of the Malaysian stock market are as follows:
1. Aluminum product manufacturer (extrusion/casting)
$LBALUM(9326.MY)$ $PA(7225.MY)$ $PMETAL(8869.MY)$
...

PA is an aluminum product manufacturer with manufacturing capacity to produce aluminum billets and end product stamping. The major customer is First Solar from the US. There are also quite a few investors who worry that PA is too dependent on a single major customer. This is a potential risk. The situation is similar to MAGNI.
However, since getting First Solar in 2018, the company has extended it for the 3rd time, and each time it is bigger than the previous contract. In January of this year, the company obtained an extension of the FirstSolar contract for a period of 18 months of RM1,076 mils. Therefore, performance is expected to grow steadily over the next 5 to 6 quarters.
Since the company only earned RM239k in the same period last year, surrendering RM12.436 mils of profit in the latest quarter increased the company by 5,099.2%. Although there is a foreign exchange profit of RM2.9 mil, there are also RM1.8 mil ESOS expenses, and when deducted, there is also PAT of RM11.5 mil or more.
The company's new production capacity was upgraded in March, mainly to meet the record high contract obtained in January. It is expected that next quarter, with the contribution of new production capacity, turnover and profit will rise to the next level.
$PA(7225.MY)$  
The company's net cash reached a new high in the latest quarter, reaching RM88.8 mil. Mainly due to increased profits, reduced inventory, and the collection of accounts receivable.

2023Q4 Genting Singapore 🇸🇬's earnings were not ideal due to unfavorable earnings. After that, the stock price fell by more than 20%, and the parent company also declined after the announcement of the Singapore results. Today's sales and net profit, which have reached new highs in recent years, are mainly due to the fact that Singapore and China were visa-free in February to drive profits.
Listed companies in Singapore only announce their results once every six months, but some companies voluntarily announce quarterly results. However, it will be very brief, usually only a few pages. The following is an explanation of Genting Singapore's Q1 performance.
$Genting Sing(G13.SG)$
$GENTING(3182.MY)$
According to the results announced in February, GenTing's profit was poor due to negative performance. Singapore has performed well this quarter, and GENM is not expected to be bad either. We can't predict stock prices, but net profit QOQ and YOY growth shouldn't be difficult; we'll know by the end of the month!
