I am surprised YTLPOWR is @ 2.29, going up about 15 sen after announcement of 3.75 sen div.
If we look at the charts, YTLPOWR came down below 2.00 to as low as 1.70 in tandem with falling pound and then rose up with a rising pound.
It's current price movement seems unusual. I can only guess either some good news coming or some goreng activity till the obvious happens.
For the last quarter the conversion rate was 1:5.5
That's about 10% less profit contribution from Wessex for the next quarter results not to mention the asset value. Though the actual percentage will be known at end of March.
No plans to move in, not until the mother goes below 1.90.
Yes agree pound movement does impact YTLPOWER share price as almost 50% of the revenue was contributed by WESSEX WATER.
However, last time YTLPOWER dipped below 1.70 was mainly due to IPP WINDFALL tax.
As i have mentioned earlier, the catalyst for YTLPOWER at the moment is the 8 billion cash together with unconverted warrants which total up to be RM 10 BILLION.
So, they can buy up any power plants or water treatment plant.....So we can only determine after the acquisition news come out.
My view is YTLPOWER share quite hard to speculate as i remember one of my frend bought at RM 1.80 AND he sold off at around 1.95 as he told me it is at the peak liaw...
