Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Cement And Aluminium: The Unsexy Backbone Of The Build-Out
Q: Has the stronger ringgit impacted import costs and export competitiveness for cement and aluminium players?
Inflation and currency moves create a mixed picture: cement mainly faces domestic demand with some cost relief when the ringgit strengthens, while aluminium exporters like Press Metal can suffer from a weaker dollar reducing export competitiveness despite higher aluminium prices, since most revenue is in USD and margins hinge on the dollar–commodity price dynamic.
Malaysia's Utilities Sector Powering Ahead
Q: Why do you maintain an overweight rating on the sector despite softer first-quarter results?
Because the sector has long-term structural growth, resilient demand drivers, and a multi-year investment cycle in grid upgrades, renewables, and storage that should sustain earnings growth beyond the near term.
Malaysia's Utilities Sector Powering Ahead
Q: What are the key catalysts that you think will drive earnings and growth going forward?
The sector fundamentals remain intact with earnings growth around 11% for the year, supported by demand from data centers, industrial activity, and ongoing grid upgrades, though some temporary outages at Malakoff and project execution risks could temper near-term momentum.
Tech Stocks : Correction or Something More?
Q: Is this as bad as it gets, or do you think the market could get worse before it gets any better?
The guest suggests that while there is ongoing volatility and a risk-off sentiment driven by energy prices and geopolitical tensions, a controlled or shallow pullback could be a healthy adjustment rather than a full-blown bear market, with some upside potential if earnings surprises remain robust and breadth improves.
Markets Rotate as Global Growth Diverges
Q: What's your view on China's economy, especially the equity markets?
China's equity market shows a divided picture: technology, EV, and supply-chain exposure benefit from policy support, while lower-margin, cyclical sectors face ongoing pressure as domestic demand and property-related weakness persist.
