1HFY18 results preview

We expect 2QFYE1/18 results, due this week, to track to expectations, with stronger QoQ earnings, fuelled by maiden contributions from FPSO JAK. We remain positive on Yinson, for its earnings growth and tender pipeline prospects as well as its cashflow strength. There is no change to our earnings forecasts, and SOP-based TP.

About the explosion

On 21 Sep 2017, an explosion occurred at OTB's sole central kitchen in Subang Jaya (Selangor) and there were up to eight injured. Investigations are ongoing and with down time at its central kitchen, OTB is drawing on its buffer/inventories at its outlet and also outsourcing suppliers. The financial impact is likely contained, in our view. Meanwhile, its FMCG operations (plant in Ipoh, Perak) are unaffected.

SECTOR RESEARCH

Aug 2017 adex: SEA Games and Merdeka led improvement
by Samuel Yin Shao Yang

Sector Note

Total gross adex growth in Aug 2017 eased 2% YoY, the narrowest YoY decline since Jun 2016. We understand that this was due to the SEA Games, Merdeka celebrations and a low base. We are hopeful that this signals a gradual recovery in adex sentiment as the YoY decline in private ad spend also narrowed substantially. While we await more positive data points, our 2017 total gross adex growth forecast is unchanged at -10%; 2018 growth forecast is +5% YoY. Maintain NEUTRAL on the sector.

MY: External Reserves, mid-Sep 2017

Reserves up and adequate
by Suhaimi Ilias

Economics Research

Total gross external reserves rose +USD0.3b to USD100.8b at mid-Sep 2017 (end-Aug 2017: USD100.5b) amid signs of portfolio capital inflows given MYR gain so far this month. Current reserves level is also adequate to deal with potential capital flow risk based on its ratio to IMF's Assessment of Reserve Adequacy (ARA) metric of 115%.

DJIA Index Bull Run Dissection & Banking Stocks in Picture
by Nik Ihsan Raja Abdullah

Technical Research

We analyse Dow Jones Industrial Average Index (INDU Index) chart since year 1,896. This gives us a clearer picture on how the market has evolved. Broadly, there were three major bull runs over the past century: 1) year 1942-1965; 2) year 1978-2000; and 3) 2009 until present; and the longest bull run lasted for 24 years. Judging from recent trends, we believe the current bull is still young, and the benchmark index could charge towards 25,000 over the longer-term.

NEWS

Outside Malaysia:

E.U: Euro-Area economy is on track for best quarter since 2015. The euro-area economy may have grown at the fastest pace in more than two years in the third quarter after an unexpected upturn in September. IHS Markit's index of private-sector activity jumped to a four-month high of 56.7 from 55.7 in August. Both services and manufacturing strengthened, with a gauge for the latter reaching a level not seen in more than six years. Markit said the economy showed a "burst of activity" in September and its surveys point to economic growth of 0.7% over the quarter. That would be the fastest since the start of 2015. Some companies raised concerns about the strength of the euro, but Markit said the currency appears so far to have had "only a modest impact on exports." (Source: Bloomberg)

Indonesia: Lowers interest rate for a second straight month. Indonesia's central bank cut its benchmark interest rate by a quarter percentage point for a second month in a row, taking advantage of low inflation to help boost growth in Southeast Asia's biggest economy. Governor Agus Martowardojo and his board lowered the seven- day reverse repurchase rate to 4.25%, the eighth reduction since the beginning of last year. (Source: Bloomberg)

Philippine: Increases oversight of bank real-estate exposure. The Philippines central bank will require banks to disclose more details on real-estate and infrastructure lending next year to improve financial surveillance. In a statement posted on its website, Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas said lenders will need to report more information on real-estate loans to mid- and high-end housing units and for low-cost housing. Banks will also have to disclose the specific use of commercial loans, according to the statement. "The reportorial enhancements form part of BSP's macro prudential toolkit and are being deployed to sharpen the BSP's assessment of banking-system exposures to the property sector," the central bank said.

Crude Oil: Holds gains as OPEC and Russia signal cuts working. The OPEC-led group implemented more than 100 percent of its agreed cuts last month and bloated stockpiles have been "massively drained," OPEC Secretary-General Mohammad Barkindo said in Vienna. Russia signalled it would be willing to extend supply curbs past the end of March if needed. Oil has advanced more than 7% this month on forecasts for rising crude demand and as U.S. Gulf Coast refineries continued to resume operations after Hurricane Harvey. Drillers targeting crude in America reduced the rig count for a third straight week to the lowest level since June, according to Baker Hughes. Brent for November settlement was USD 56.88/bbl.
