BJCHI.
When Oil prices went through the floor, the SP stayed strong. Even allowing for the 50 satang divvy, SP has gone from Hero to Zero. Any news? tia.

From what I have read, earnings aren’t as strong as what was previously projected for 2016, also seems like the troubles in Brazil are starting to affect BJCHI given their client portfolio.
DonMcMahon
Thanks. I missed that. Do you recollect the source, please?
I tried googling for mention of earning outlook changes, in the media when the the price came off so much. Other than Rig zone, nothing.

cimb securities and Kim eng research did a few pieces of research in April…I am a big fan of BJCHI but did feel the run up to the mid 7s was unjustified and was being pushed by market forces rather than fundamentals. I think now is a good accumulation opp in the mid to high 5s.
Don
That’s good of you to share. I’m switching to KimEng. I got the absolutely wrong explanation for the outlook for the SP, from my broker. I believe that the charts for BJCHI showed a more realistic outlook, ( i had little confidence in it, as daily volume was low). Do you read Thai, as online translation services do not work for me., re the Research reports. Tia.

This is kind of stock I have been range trading with good success. Buy in the 5s and sell in the 7s as a general rule of thumb.
