I'm still waiting for your facts and evidence to show that OSK manipulated the price to maintain it low.

Let's not accuse unless we have facts ourselves, am I right?
Facts/Evidence:
-JCY-CD expiry on 27th Feb.
- Price tested 1.50 on Feb 8th but retraced back to 1.21 by 27th Feb (JCY-CD expiry).
-Price continues to retrace back to a low of 1.07 and last week OSK announces new warrant JCY -CE and share price slowly trickles backup.
-Refer to historical price charts on tradesignum etc please during this time. I cannot be bothered pasting it here for you.
-Also please do some research on warrants and how intistitutions hedge, your lackof knoweldge is a complete waste of my time.
Now please give me my 2 examples of companies that have experienced 100x increase earnings and share price has not moved. Stop avoiding this question.

HDD prices will not maintain. This is not an assumption. If you track HDD prices before the Thai flood and now, you would know that once production for every supplier comes onstream again, HDD prices will without a doubt fall again. It may not be this year, but come 2013 HDD prices will be forced down again. While 2012 will not JCY is expanding to absorb the production capacity that will be shifted out of Thailand. This is a good way to cement it's reputation as a huge HDD parts supplier. A lot can happen in 2 years.see a serious challenge from SSD market, it is catching up and growing considerably as prices of RAMs drop. Who knows in 2013/4 what will the prices of SSDs be.
sorry these generalisations/assumptions are invalid unless you can back up these claims with facts/ evidences/ sources.

- A very BIG F for fail for you here and further evidence of your lack of knowledge in commenting on something you know absolutely nothing about.. JCY has already stated publicly that it intends to use 80% of the money to buy new machines. If they were shifting their production out of thailand, they dont need to buy new machines, they can simply move the machines out of thailand. And no they are not shifting anything out of thailand because their factory in Saraburi thailand sits on high ground with no threat of flooding. hence they were not impacted by the floods.
Below are facts and supporting evidence which proves you are not only wrong but do not have a clue.
FACTS/SUPPORTING EVIDENCE.
http://www.theedgemalaysia.com/highlights/...e-19-fold-.html"to cater for an expected increased demand from its major customers, JCY's board has approved
RM300m capital expenditure to expand its facilities in Malaysia, Thailand and China"
"Some 80% of the money will be used to buy machinery"
So I rest my case and will not be wasting anymore of my precious time because of your lackof knowledge and inability to research.
You know what, I'm pretty sure there is no way I can even hope to dent the mindset you've already casted over your general view. But here is some examples I wouldn't even bother to search but will just quote.
If a company is making losses for 1 year, how much % in profit did they make if the following year the company makes RM1k in profit compared to last year losses. IS it 1000% profit growth?
And just to clarify what you've quoted and admonished what I've stated about JCYs expansion (note: EXPANSION). I stated that JCY is EXPANDING to absorb the shift in production out of Thailand by other manufacturers. I did not suggest that JCY's own factory is moving out. So your 'a very BIG F for fail' comment is not valid.
It is reported in the Thai media, Thailand is expected to lose 10% of it's long term manufacturing tenants in the flood affected regions. These companies will probably look forward to set up base either in Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia or China.
So your 'facts and evidence' on OSK manipulating prices, is actually your opinion based on price charts on trade signum? Interesting. I'm sure the jury will be completely convinced.
But you're absolutely right on one thing which is the fact that you shouldn't waste your time on any of us (which don't know anything) anymore.
Cheers.
