The unexciting 4QFY8/16 results was within expectations.
While the rising USD/MYR may lift Top Glove’s share price, we caution
that the latex price is also on the rise and our EPS forecasts have
already imputed for stronger quarterly earnings ahead. We trim our
FY17-18 EPS forecasts slightly by 2%/3% and introduce our FY19 EPS,
projecting flattish 3-year (FY16-19) net profit CAGR. TP is raised to
MYR4.25 (+4%) as we update for its latest 5-year rolling fwd PER of 16x
(from 15x). Maintain SELL.

Outside Malaysia:
U.S: Fed says several FOMC members saw rate rise
relatively soon. U.S. central bankers debating the merits of raising
interest rates last month described the decision as a close call, with
several saying a rate hike was needed “relatively soon,” minutes of the
September meeting showed. “Several members judged that it would be
appropriate to increase the target range for the federal funds rate
relatively soon if economic developments unfolded about as the committee
expected,” the minutes from the Sept. 20-21 gathering in Washington
showed. “It was noted that a reasonable argument could be made either for
an increase at this meeting or for waiting for some additional
information on the labor market and inflation.” (Source: Bloomberg)
U.S: Job openings fell in August to lowest level this
year. Job openings in the U.S. declined more than projected in August to
the lowest level this year and hiring cooled from a month earlier, a
Labor Department report showed. Number of positions waiting to be filled
dropped by 388,000 to 5.44 million (forecast was 5.80 million), from a
revised 5.83 million in July, according to the Job Openings and Labor
Turnover Survey. Monthly decline was biggest since August 2015. Hiring
decreased to 5.21 million from 5.26 million; the hiring rate held at
3.6%. Some 2.98 million Americans quit their jobs, little changed from
July; the quits rate stayed at 2.1%. Layoffs declined to 1.62 million
from 1.64 million. (Source: Bloomberg)
U.K: Housing market strengthened in September after the
shock inflicted by the Brexit vote faded and a shortage of properties for
sale persisted. The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors said its
house-price gauge rose to 17 from 13 in August as an increasing number of
real-estate agents reported appreciating prices. Values continued to
decline in central London, home to the priciest real-estate in the
country. The housing market endured a rocky first half as a tax surcharge
on investment properties and the decision to leave the European Union
kept buyers at bay. (Source: Bloomberg)
China: Passenger-vehicle sales surged 29% last month, led
by small-car makers Geely Automobile Holdings Ltd. and Mazda Motor Corp.,
as consumers seeking to beat an expiring tax cut helped clear inventory
on dealer lots. Deliveries of sedans, minivans, sport utility and
multipurpose vehicles to dealerships rose to 2.27 million units in
September, the state-backed China Association of Automobile Manufacturers
said. (Source: Bloomberg)
