KPJ has guided earlier that they will be building 3 additional hospitals over the next 2-3 years, hence this is expected and positive for its mid to long term expansion plan.

 

6) Market: is very oversold with RSI at 16.2% and trading into the support band of KLCI 1760 – 1780 from October 2013 to February 2014. Barring further shocks from externalities like oil, Ebola & the excessive forced liquidation in US & European markets overflowing into redemption of emerging markets, we expect the Malaysian market to gradually begin to find its footing.
