FLOWS;

BUYS: AFG,  Armada, TNB

SELLS: UEMLand, Genting, MAS

Technical Stock Alert;

TopGlove (RM4.80) -  Rich valuation no longer warranted as the company continues to face headwinds in terms of margin compression as raw material prices remain persistently high and industry excess supply. Recent sell down from RM5.32 could continue to see further price erosion to around RM4.40 as current levels of RM4.80 only represent a weak support.

Puncak (RM1.57) - Price has fallen 27% from its recent high of RM1.89 after denying involvement in bidding for marginal oilfields. Despite this setback, we think there could still be further development in this space as the company completed the acquisition of two O&G related companies, Global Offshore Msia and KGL Ltd. We expect support around the RM1.60 awaiting future newsflows. Buy on weakness
