Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp. (OCBC SP; S$4.89) – SELL

FY09P/E: 10.5x, P/BV: 1.0x

• If it breaks below the S$4.80 support level, sentiment may turn bearish over
the immediate term. Next support is much weaker at S$4.65, S$4.41 and
S$3.90.
• Technical indicators are showing signs of exhaustion. MACD has confirmed its
dead cross and stayed negative while RSI is still flat.
• Sell now ahead of the breakdown. Resistance is seen at S$5.15 and S$5.48
levels. Unless it can cut above these resistances to reverse the short-term
bearish trend, any intermittent rebound may not be sustainable.

OCBC Bank offers a comprehensive range of banking services and financial


solutions in consumer banking, business banking, international banking, global
treasury and investment management. The OCBC Group has diverse
subsidiaries that are involved in financial futures, regional stockbroking, trustee,
nominee and custodian services, property development and hotel management.

Meiban Group (MEI SP; S$0.145) – BUY

FY09P/E: 5.4x, P/BV: 0.4x

• The stock broke out of its consolidation triangle after taking out its resistance at
S$0.14.
• Both indicators are still showing positive signs.
• Aggressive investors could buy on weakness but put a stop below the S$0.12
level. The breakout could lift the stock towards the S$0.165-S$0.17 resistance
next. Other investors should just stand aside for now.

Meiban produces injection moulded plastic products for multinational customers


in the consumers electronics and computer sectors in the electronic industry, eg.
plastic parts in audio, video and hi-fi equipment and personal computers, printers
and computer keyboards.

Venture Corp (VMS SP; S$4.00) – SELL

FY09P/E: 4.7x, P/BV: 0.6x

• The stock has broken out above its medium term trend line resistance.
However, it is currently trading below the 30-day SMA at S$4.16. The next
resistance is at S$4.70.
• MACD is still marginally positive but RSI has hooked downwards. Mixed
indicators suggest that it is still in consolidation.
• After failing to close above its 30-day SMA after trying 3 times, suggest that the
buying momentum is weak. There should have been a rally after the breakout
of its medium term trend line but it appears that there is none forthcoming. A
breakdown below S$4.00 would likely see the continuation of a longer term
downtrend towards the S$3.60-S$3.65 levels next.

Venture offers high value-added and highly efficient manufacturing services to


MNCs using state-of-the-art manufacturing process technology and test
development capability. In addition, Venture provides an excellent range of pre-
manufacturing services including design, prototyping and engineering services,
as well as post-manufacturing services including after-sales repairs,
customisation and fulfillment logistics.

What we like
• Products have an indefinite shelf life. Due to the nature of APSI’s
products (burial and columbaria niches), there is no risk of
obsolescence and can be sold for a stable price indefinitely.

What we dislike
• Low traction. The stock has been faced with a lack of trading interest
which hinders any potential share price movement.
• Control of operating expenses remains a worry. Higher general

Recommendation – Maintain SELL


• We maintain our earnings forecasts as we believe it has already
factored in the decreased demand for pre-need burial plots and niches
in Malaysia.
• We maintain our SELL recommendation but cut target price to S$0.11
(from S$0.14) based on 2x P/BV, the industry peer average. This
translates to 24.1% downside.
