STI up; Cosco Corp hits 4-year low

Singapore shares rose on Monday as positive data from the US instilled optimism and boosted investor confidence, while shares of Cosco Corp tumbled to their lowest in more than four years on disappointing earnings.

The Straits Times Index gained 0.4% to 3,383.25, while the MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan rose 0.9%.

Shares of Cosco Corp, a unit of China's maritime conglomerate China Ocean Shipping (Group) Co, fell more than 6% to $0.815 after the company posted a 65% drop in its first-quarter net profit.

COSCO management has not diversified its opernations like YZJ.

Perhaps, the directors should change the CEO.

Capitalise on Cosco demise? Will it happens? i doubt? Short it then? Or may be a good buy at 60 Cents or below?
WB:-

1) Rule # 1, do not lose money.
2) Rule # 2, refer to # 1.
3) Not until you can manage your emotions, you can manage your money.

Cosco blokes have already made their money years ago - it was a darling pre GFC and since then the new team is really there to keep the company going.

Need not try to hard - its a Ching co - how much can you trust them especially when there is minimum trust even between their own people?

Cosco still not doing well...

Cosco Corp's 3Q net profit falls 61%

Cosco Corp (Singapore) said its third quarter net profit fell 61% to $16.4 million from the same period a year earlier due to lower contributions from dry-bulk shipping and shipyard operations.

Net profit attributable to equity holders of the company fell 84.1% on the year to $4.2 million in the third quarter.

Cosco Corp, a subsidiary of China's state-owned maritime conglomerate, China Ocean Shipping (Group) Co, said its profit for the first nine months of the year dropped 68% to $26 million.

The company's order-book stood at $7.2 billion at the end of September, up from $6.7 billion three months earlier.

Cosco Corp shares closed at $0.79, down nearly 12% so far this year, compared with a 1% gain in Singapore's benchmark Straits Times Index.

Recently. Heads are being chopped at 央企. PetroChina, now this.

Read that 央企 a lot of 太子党. Which are naturally anti-reform due to vested interests.
