KUALA LUMPUR: Bursa Malaysia has issued an unusual market activity (UMA) to Kobay Technology Bhd due to the sharp rise in the price and trading volume recently.
@wsoh don't think we need any analyst to tell us its semiconductor trend now. look at data. up 16% you. semiconductor turnaround may be faster than anticipated.
since last post, unisem up 20%, kobay up 30%, sam up 20%, as usual rgt berhad just rebounded as well. fpgroup is now a very good value play with 8 cents net cash. MI haven't move yet but will believe MI material business will benefit the most.
top pick for me still goes to unisem for osat first to recovery, kobay in precision, MI for material, rgt for recovery, fpgroup for value play, abit of no brainer.

@wsoh keeping it here. Feb spending is increasing again 2nd half and 2025. some semiconductor companies have moved, like kobay, unisem, Sam. but personally, this may just be the start of the semiconductor trend. normally last for 2 to 3 years. personally still like Mi for their material business, kobay for turnsround (private placement at 5.50, crazy) and their RE business just completed expended, unisem (osat will recover first before others), sam and rgt for turnaround as well. fpgroup is dropping to quite "value" destination. $KOBAY / 6971 (KOBAY TECHNOLOGY BERHAD) $UNISEM / 5005 (UNISEM (M) BERHAD) $SAM / 9822 (SAM ENGINEERING & EQUIPMENT (M) BERHAD) $RGTBHD / 9954 (RGT BERHAD) $FPGROUP / 5277 (FOUNDPAC GROUP BERHAD)
