  • 1. kebanyakan bank provide service ni as long as ada cds account anda registered kt dlm system bank tu. ada fee sikit, klu transfer dari savings acc cimb ke cds acc di cimb investment, fee cuma $2, klu savings acc cimb, cds acc investment bank lain $2.50
    2. dulu 1 lot 1000 unit, utk galakkan retail investor, govt tukar ke 1 lot 100 unit tp investor usually still guna 1 lot 1000 unit lg
    3. jika ada yg no. 1 kat atas, jika subscription gagal, automatic fund akan refund balik terus ke savings acc cimb lps tolak fee tu.

    • Base on previous year financial record, the IPO is a bit expensive but I read somewhere that the earning should be better for 2013 & beyond & the PE will be the same or better with other company in the same industry. If it come out to be true, then the IPO will be good.

  • For rig businesses usually long term contract. So upside is steady stream income. Downside is if the daily rate go up, difficult to change contract. Exploration and Production wise according to Wood MacKenzie globally the spenditure will be flat not growth of 10-15% Capex by oil companies. Nevertherless there will frontier of deep watet exploration such as Indonesia. If UMW is using the proceed to venture into deepwater drillship, might more upside there. According to report by Maybank KE, positive in oil and gas sector for Malaysia. I believe it will be ok similar to westport. But this coming budget might have local effects. It depends alao in progress of marginal/ small fields Risk Contract in Malaysia
