US REFINERIES BRACE FOR HURRICANE SEASON STARTING JUNE 2022. OIL CRACK MARGIN CONTINUE TO STAY ELEVATED AT THE TOP SIDE WHICH WILL BENEFIT HENGYUAN

For latest information, can join us at



As you know that I had been investing in Hengyuan Refinery for quite some time. I will continue to stay invested in Hengyuan as a hedge towards commodity inflationary prices, especially in the oil and gas industry.

Prior to the current development that is happening in the global stage, here are the reason for me to stay invested in Hengyuan

1. The 2 years of Covid19 had resulted in oil refinery closure. a total of 5 oil refineries in the US shut down permanently during 2021.

2. Reopening of global economy and air travel boost demand for refined oil products such as jet fuel.

3. Russia Ukraine on going war had resulted in Russian oil products getting sanctioned by the West, hence elevated the oil price further.

4. Moving into 2H 2022, there are more violent weather changes in the gulf of US, where weather reports are looking between 6 to 10 hurricanes which will start from in June, peaking in September and ending on November 2022.




As such event are lining up which will continue to push the oil refineries crack margin higher, or maintaining in a high range, oil refinery operator over the world that are not affected by oil sanctions or turbulent weather will be looking into mega earning season.

Hengyuan refinery will definitely fit into the context.




The price of Hengyuan had dropped from a peak of RM 7.70 to the current price of RM 6.30 is probably due to expiry of call warrants HENGYUAN C22

The exercise price of HENGYUAN C22 is RM 4.75.
As the price of HENGYUAN is above RM 4.75 now, the call warrant holder will be entitled for cash settlement after the maturity date of 30th May 2022.

Hengyuan is expected to post it's largest ever revenue and net profit for the 1st time, which will be 31st May 2022. With the crack margin sustaining at the higher range, HENGYUAN will be the darling stock of 2022.

IS HENGYUAN WORTH THE WAIT FOR A BIGGER AND BETTER RESULT IN THE NEXT 3 MONTHS?

For latest information, can join us at


Today HENGYUAN had released its quarterly result for the financial performance period of OCT - DEC 2021.

During that period, the crack spread of MOGAS 92 BRENT is averaging at USD 9 to USD 10.



The profit estimation back then from my calculation is around RM 175 million.

As per the official result, the profit is almost RM 180 million.

So moving forward, it is important to know whether HENGYUAN is worth for the next wait on the bigger pie of profit or you are just going to sell it off.

My previous estimation is based on crack spread average of USD 9.

According to the moving price chart, I can foresee that Q1 2022 average crack spread can be lingering around USD 12 to USD 13. Let's take USD 12.50 as a point of calculation.



Crack spread rate of USD 12.5 is approximately an appreciation of 39% from previous average of USD 9.

So most probably next coming quarter can expect earning per share around 80 cents to 85 cents.

I believe next quarter can be seeing HENGYUAN start to give huge dividend to the shareholder again.


HENGYUAN will most likely challenge RM 5 in the immediate term as the resistant line. If the prospect of oil refinery crack spread continue to remain elevated, then the chances of HENGYUAN running above RM 10 will not be a dream too big.

So it will be the investor decision whether it is worth the wait for them to see the bigger piece of prize.

HENGYUAN IS ON TECHNICAL RETRACEMENT OF AN UPTREND CHART

For latest information, can join us at



With the Russia and Ukraine war going on, energy prices especially in the oil and gas sector continue to stay elevated. Supply chain in the oil and gas sector continue to see higher margin with the higher energy commodities prices.

I would suppose that this will be the same for oil refinery company.

PETRONM had report the quarterly report with positive EPS that had shown the recovery of the oil refinery sector.


As you can see, PETRONM result is very good with EPS 22.4 and even giving out 20 cents dividend for the share holder.


HENGYUAN is going to report the quarterly report later today on 28 FEB 2022 after market hour.

Currently, the share price is on the uptrend, but sitting towards the support line of the uptrend.



I do not hold any insider information about the upcoming result of HENGYUAN.

However, with the positive oil price environment, and also a big margin in crack spread in oil refinery, it should be giving a good profit.

At the current price below RM 4.30 on technical retracement, do you think it is a good point to average down? enter into new position? add your investmet position?

IT IS THE TIME FOR HENGYUAN TO DRIVE A NOTCH HIGHER WITH RISING CRACK SPREAD

For latest information, can join us at



HENGYUAN REFINING COMPANY BERHAD (HENGYUAN - 4324) will be reporting it's quarterly report in a few days time.

With the rising crack spread margin in the overall industry, it will be safe to say that oil refinery company should be making a profit from their services as the margin enable them for a profit.


Above is the Singapore MOGAS 92 UNLEADED BRENT CRACK SPREAD FUTURES.

The crack spread trading almost to an all time high. The margin is sufficient enough for the company to report very high profit.

As you can see from past historical record, the current price can be considered at the high zone which can delivery promising profit to refinery company.




While every refinery company have their own fixed cost and overhead, HENGYUAN did delivery some stunning record profit back then which had sent the share price over to more than RM 20 per share.



As HENGYUAN price chart movement had finally broken away from the long term downtrend, the current uptrend in 2022 had just started, backed with high crack spread margin for the share to appreciate more when the company delivery the profit.

I do not possess any insider information on HENGYUAN coming quarter report. I got no idea if HENGYUAN can be reporting a big profit, or a big loss again. Technically speaking, it should be able to give a report back to the black. As a normal retail investor, I am still holding this share as prospect of the refinery margin improves.

PUNCAK to be lifted with speculation on MRT3 and high palm oil prices

For latest information, can join us at



One of the coming excitement for the construction player in 2022 will be tender of MRT 3 related projects. With estimation as high as RM 40 billion for the whole project, investor can expect a mixture of old players in the previous MRT 1 and 2 with a slew of potential new players into the segment.

Here, I will highlight the potential new player that could come into the tender of MRT 3 - Puncak Niaga Holdings Berhad (Puncak - 6807)

With the disposal of water asset to Air Selangor for RM 1.5 billion in 2016, the company had hunt for new asset with the cash load.

The 2 significant new portfolio added into Puncak is as below

1. Purchase of TRIPLC construction firm for RM 210 million in 2016 to boost the firm construction capabilities.


2. Purchase of Shin Yang's oil palm unit in Sarawak for RM 446 million.


Now looking back at the move to purchase these asset back then, it had proven to be a good and strategic move from PUNCAK to acquire such in order to penetrate into new market.


With expectation that MRT 3 tender for civil works to be out at Q2 2022, could we be seeing PUNCAK as one of the new player in the basket as they leverage their construction prowess through the acquisition of TRIPLC back in 2016.

Beside that, it should be noticeable that PUNCAK 90% owned plantation unit is also able to enjoy a higher return from ALL TIME HIGH FCPO prices.



With so much positive news for PUNCAK in 2022, it would give a positive momentum for the company share to move upwards. 

As the company share price had hit the long term resistant, can PUNCAK successfully break above the resistant line and give an upward rally?


The next few days will determine for PUNCAK chart trending. With hopeful news on MRT 3 and all time high palm oil prices, this will bring towards an upwards rally for PUNCAK, which is trading way below is NTA of RM 2.92

Can paper packaging company make a cut in 2022 ? KYM in focus

For latest information, can join us at



The recent higher volume participation in the KLSE equity market might signal a pre-CNY rally for most of the stock that had stayed low most of the 2nd half of 2021. As we enter into 2022, it is time to start hunting for bargain chips and turnaround company. 

1 interesting company that you could look into is KYM HOLDINGS BERHAD (KYM - 8362). The company is dealing with manufacturing of paper packaging and corrugated carton box.


According to industry analyst, the corrugated carton players in Malaysia will be looking at steady recovery post the lockdown from Covid-19 pandemic.


The demand will be underpinned by stronger e-commerce activities as more customer prefer to shop from online. This change of customer purchasing behavior will likely to grow even throughout the year as more customer adopt to this style of online purchasing.

Malaysia is a strategic country to produce and manufactur paper pulp for the packaging industry. In March 2021 last year, the largest paper pulp producer in Asia invest RM 5.4 billion to open new factory in Malaysia.



In the technical outlook, KYM seems to have bottom out and consolidated for sometime. The technical chart suggest that KYM could be looking for a potential chart break out from the downtrend resistant line. Breaking above RM 0.42 in a strong manner will suggest a new uptrend for the share.



What do you think of KYM in the short to medium term moving forward as fundamental outlook improve and technical outlook seems to bottom out and ready to jump up.

EDEN on the look out with previous low key investor entry from Widad and Dataprp

For latest information, can join us at



Will year 2022 be a good time for KLSE equity market? This question is for anybody to guess.

Want to share something that might be of your interest if you are an investor / trader that follow personality investing. Personality investing is a style of investment that follow a person where he had some good touch where stock can be moving up in aggressive formation after a while.

EDEN INC BERHAD (EDEN - 7471) could be a good candidate with a key touch of entry from Dato Wee Cheng Kwan.


Dato Wee Cheng Kwan entry into Eden at RM 0.12 for a stake of 8.25% is through private placement. The transaction is done on 24th Nov 2021.

To recap, EDEN is a company that is dealing with utilities (electric provider in Sabah) and also F&B business in Langkawi. However, the prime asset that EDEN is sitting on is the lucrative big industrial land in Pahang, which is near to Kuantan Port.

Partial of the land is being sold back to the government for the building of ECRL track which will cross through Pahang.

If EDEN is successful in monetizing the land asset through asset disposal, or joint venture from foreign MNC to build and operate factory, that will see EDEN making a windfall cash from the process.

So who is Dato Wee Cheng Kwan ? How is his past track record on his magical touch of hand?


Following is the info on Dato Wee Cheng Kwan shareholding in the past.

Save except for PRG Bhd where Dato Wee Cheng Kwan is a managing director, his entry into Widad and Dataprp do had magical touch.



Example for Widad, his shareholding in 2019, not long after, share price can see going more than triple from RM0.25 to RM 0.80.


As for Dataprp, this is needless to say. The share which is price less than RM 0.20 had went above RM 4.00 in 2021.


Now with the entry of EDEN at an all time low of RM 0.12, where can we see the landing of EDEN in the next 6 months? Currently, the technical chart would suggest that EDEN is already touching resistant line and might be ready for break out run above.



Can the magical touch from Dato Wee Cheng Kwan come again on EDEN ? Will EDEN be flying high like Widad to 80 cents or like Dataprp to RM 4.00 ? That is for anybody guess for now.
