Technical Stock Alert;
FAVCO (RM1.47): Volume has picked up recently with buying support seen at RM1.40 and MACD cut up. Recent transaction involved a RPT whereby FAVCO will be acquiring a crane fabrication yard in NSW, Australia measuring 11.6acres from Muhibbah Engineering which currently owns 55.57% of FAVCO. Purchase will be satisfied through the issuance of 31.678mil new FAVCO shares at RM1.5181. This would bumped up Muhibbah's stake to 62.25% based on an enlarged PUC of 210.8m shares. Given Muhibbah's net debt of RM945.95m or 1.43xnet gearing, Muhibbah could use this opportunity to pare down its stake in FAVCO to improve liquidity. FAVCO orderbook stands at RM701.5mil. Trading Buy with undemanding valuation of 6-7xPE and dividend of 4.08% .  Immediate upside target of RM1.62.
(TYK)

POSM (RM2.90) - we reiterate our call on POS which looks to be on a new leg up after breaking above its short term resistance level of RM2.90. It recently tied up with sister company Bank Muamalat to offer Islamic pawn broking services at selected POS outlets nationwide. A total of 50 outlets are targeted within a year. This form of micro credit financing could be a significant new stream of income to POS. The company's will go ex div of 17.5sen on the 15 AUG. Immediate target of RM3.20 . BUY
