Should BIMB
restructure?
|
|
We would be positive if BIMB restructured, for there would
be several merits to this, including the prospect of higher dividends.
Such an exercise would nevertheless be neutral on valuations and it is
possible that Bank Islam, on a standalone basis, may not re-rate as
quickly without STMB to provide earnings growth support. While a
restructuring in the future cannot be ruled out, it is unlikely to
happen anytime soon, in our view. HOLD maintained with an unchanged
SOP-TP of MYR4.00.

Headline inflation rate dropped further in May 2016 to
-1.6% YoY (Apr 2016: -0.5% YoY) while core inflation edged up +1.0%
YoY (Apr 2016: +0.8% YoY). The drop was mainly attributed to lower
cost in “Housing & Utilities” as well as “Transport”, cancelling
the positive contribution by “Food” prices. No change to our 2016
headline inflation rate forecast at -0.4% and expect core inflation
rate at +0.5%.

Outside Malaysia:
U.S: Purchases of new homes declined in May from an
eight-year high as the housing market continued to display the choppy
progress that’s been a hallmark of the recovery. Sales fell 6% to a
551,000 annualized pace following a 586,000 rate in April that was slower
than previously estimated, Commerce Department figures showed. While the
report showed demand retrenched last month, the volatile data are showing
gradual improvement on the back of steady job gains and low mortgage
rates. (Source: Bloomberg)
U.S: Fewer Americans than forecast filed for unemployment
benefits last week, adding to evidence that the labor market is healthy
and stable. Jobless claims dropped by 18,000 to 259,000 in the period
ended June 18, a Labor Department report showed. It was the biggest
decrease since the first week of February. Hiring managers are finding
little reason to pare staff amid a dwindling pool of available workers.
Sustained low levels of jobless claims have helped to reassure Federal
Reserve policy makers that the recent slowdown in payroll gains will
dissipate. Claims in the prior week were unrevised at 277,000. Filings
have been below 300,000 for 68 straight weeks -- the longest stretch
since 1973 and a level economists say is typically consistent with a
healthy labor market. (Source: Bloomberg)
Germany: Economy is showing little sign that Britain’s
referendum on European Union membership is damping investment, according
to Markit Economics. A Purchasing Managers’ Index for manufacturing and
services was at 54.1 in June after a reading of 54.5 in May. While that’s
the lowest in two months, it’s well above the 50 mark that divides
expansion from contraction. (Source: Bloomberg)
Philippines: The central bank left its benchmark interest
rate unchanged in its first meeting since revamping its policy framework,
providing stability to investors in the face of possible market fallout
if the U.K. votes to exit the European Union. Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas
kept the overnight borrowing rate at 3%. The bank lowered the rate last
month and narrowed the band around it to make monetary policy more
effective. Policy makers are saving their firepower as incoming President
Rodrigo Duterte lays out plans to boost economic growth when he takes
office on June 30. (Source: Bloomberg)
