Time for this burger to wake up........

 

STI make another new high. Aluminium continue to go higher.

AEI Corp annouce 2H results announced on 16 Feb 2008, 28 Feb 2009 and 22 Feb 2010. I will not know the exact release date of 2H 2010 result. I don't know when AEI Corp reach to NTA value, neither do I know STI will go higher or consolidate or correction.

I suspect interest in AEI Corp is low due to XD of 3 cents dividends and bad 1H 2010 due to falling price of aluminium. With the recovery of alumiunm price, hopefully AEI Corp share price will move up.

Before share buy back of 5.2m shares

EPS (1/2 year) = 1.755 cents

NTA = 20.628 cent (base on 1H 2010 figure)

Cash & equiv = $22.629m

Total shares = 256.39677m shares

 

After share buy back of 5.2m shares

EPS (1/2 year) = 1.7915 cents

NTA = 21.055 cent (base on 1H 2010 figure)

Cash & equiv = $22.629m (base on 1H 2010 figure minus share buy back cost)

Total shares = 251.19677m shares

So likely 2H 2010 profit should be good due to better gross margin + MTM profit (instead of losses) + lesser losses of disposal of Property, plant and equipment + no write down of inventory.   Company recently had buy back 5.2m shares at 16.5 cents to 17 cents on 30 and 31 Aug 2010.

Is now a good time to buy into this stock?

Looking at their price, seems very atractive..

 

There is a good reason to be bullish on AEI. It's here http://www.nextinsight.net/index.php/story-archive-mainmenu-60/903-2010-/2926-aei-corp-sudden-massive-share-buyback

 

Good time for me to buy this counter again, targeting price of Sgd. 0.20 in near term!

victorian2      ( Date: 15-Jan-2010 00:46) Posted: AEI did 2m. One large buy up in the afternoon taking out 13.5 & 14c alltogether for a 1.18m trade. clost with a sell down at 13.5c when all trades were done at 14c. Volume increasing by the day..... hope for a breakout soon

 

Thank you, I make a substantial profit from it! Is it still good to buy accumulating more at this current price level Sgd. 0.19? Alluminium price has gone up >80% since first quarter 2090 low!

victorian2      ( Date: 11-Jan-2010 12:26) Posted: Watch AEI....trading 7c below NTA. Cash per share 10c.. Half year results profitble with 3.9m. took a hit on the profit with writedown of aluminium inventory in 2009. Aluminium prices have gone back up 30%. On top of being profitable....there will surely be writeback of inventory values. AEI has decent exposure to Chinese market where demand is high and evident in its half year numbers...... Counter should do well when it's cheap.... technicals are nascent. MACD turning up......bollis are tight, williams on the low side and ROC right at the bottom.....turning up. good time to accumulate when price has not run up at all and accumulation in place at 12-15c for the last 4 months on decent daily accumulation. World Aluminium prices have gone back up 30%....... http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703585704574650561437547536.html?mod=WSJ_WorldMarketsRIGHTMoreInMarkets World Aluminium market leader Alcoa up 30% since November. Alcoa's earnings report Monday is likely to be a reminder that for now, a little bit of inflation is a good thing. Associated Press lcoa shares have rallied some 32% in the past month, and closed Friday at $17.02, compared with analysts' average target price of $16. Above, Alcoa's world headquarters in Pittsburgh. .The aluminum giant's after-the-bell report marks the unofficial start to the fourth-quarter earnings season, with more than 40% of S&P 500 companies to follow by month-end. Analysts expect the company to post a small profit of about $0.05 a share, according to Thomson Reuters. That would be its second straight gain after three quarterly losses. A year ago, Alcoa reported a loss of $0.28 a share. For the earnings revival, Alcoa and other metal and mining companies have rising commodity prices to thank. The weaker U.S. dollar, in which most commodities are priced, plus a rebound in global demand for autos and household consumer goods, has helped push aluminum prices to about $1 a pound from 60 cents last February, though prices remain below the $1.50 level seen in mid-2008. .Other commodities have similarly rallied; copper, lead and zinc prices more than doubled in 2009. Such gains would set off inflationary alarm bells during normal economic times. But these are not yet normal times. The severe, synchronized collapse of the global economy that skewered commodity prices sparked fears of the opposite, more pernicious problem: deflation. That cycle of falling prices and wages makes debts costlier and can prove more difficult for policy makers to combat. For that reason, economists have welcomed the revival of commodity prices. But for stock investors, bullishness may have gotten carried away. Alcoa shares have rallied some 32% in the past month, and closed Friday at $17.02, compared with analysts' average target price of $16. While rising prices are helping Alcoa for now, the company's longer-term prospects are clouded by overcapacity in the aluminum industry and by the risk that demand for metals could by hindered by a sluggish recovery. "There could be some disappointment" if the company doesn't report signs of improvement beyond aluminum prices, such as higher sales volumes, says Deutsche Bank mining analyst Jorge Beristain. Given aluminum's long-term challenges, copper or steel firms could prove a better gauge of the recovery.
