hi,
this is consider a good news or bad news?GENM is no mocing since jun...wat's wrong?
thx
This' positive as it will generate better return than just RM5 billion cash in bank earning 2%.
I guess it's just them trying to flush out the traders, who wants quick trades gain. they prefer med-long term investors now.. Just wild guess...
GenM price was quite volatile in May June when I profit from the quick trade. So when it does moves, it does so rapidly..
If you have spare cash in banks, put some in GenM..
