Hit by double
whammy
|
|
It has not been a good year for UEMS thus far. Firstly, it
is affected by the slowdown in the domestic property market and the
delay in launching its Melbourne project, which led to a 33% downward
revision in sales target to MYR1b for 2016 (announced in Aug 2016).
Secondly, it is hit by an unexpected additional tax and tax penalty
claimed by IRB. We lower our earnings forecasts by -0.3% to -37% to
factor in the additional tax payment. Our RNAV-TP is largely unchanged
at MYR1.10. Reiterate HOLD.

Outside Malaysia:
Germany: Factory orders unexpectedly declined in
September, reflecting a slowdown in growth over the summer months in
Europe’s largest economy. Orders, adjusted for seasonal swings and
inflation, fell 0.6% from August, when they rose a revised 0.9%, data from
the Economy Ministry showed. Orders gained 2.6% YoY. (Source: Bloomberg)
U.K: House prices rose for a second month in October,
helped in part by an ongoing lack of supply of properties for sale.
Mortgage lender Halifax said values rose 1.4% compared with a month
earlier as the stock of homes available remained around a record low.
From a year earlier, values in the three months to October were 5.2% YoY
higher. That’s far below a peak of 10% annual growth in March this year,
but still “robust,” it said in a statement. The monthly increase lifted
average values to GBP 217,411 (USD 269,500). (Source: Bloomberg)
China: FX reserves drop most since January as a stronger
dollar helped spur capital outflow pressures and shaved the value of the
stockpile. Reserves decreased USD 45.7b to USD 3.12t in October, the
People’s Bank of China said. (Source: Bloomberg)
Indonesia: Economy grew in line with forecasts in 3Q 2016
as President Joko Widodo seeks to spur the nation onto a higher growth
path. GDP increased 5.02% YoY last quarter, compared with a revised 5.19%
YoY in the second quarter, the statistics bureau said. GDP rose 3.2% QoQ
in the third quarter from the previous three months. (Source: Bloomberg)
Crude Oil: Holds near USD 45/bbl before U.S. election as supplies
seen rising. Oil traded near USD 45/bbl as voters prepare to go to the
polls for the U.S. presidential election before weekly government data
forecast to show crude stockpiles expanded. Equities in Australia and New
Zealand extended gains as opinion polls showed Hillary Clinton ahead of
Donald Trump. Crude inventories climbed by 1.5m barrels last week,
according to a Bloomberg survey before a report from the Energy
Information Administration on Wednesday. (Source: Bloomberg)
