KUALA LUMPUR (Aug 12): theedgemalaysia.com highlighted six stocks with momentum at Bursa Malaysia’s noon market break on Monday, with three showing positive momentum and three stocks showing negative momentum.

The stocks with positive momentum were:     

  • Mikro MSC Bhd (KL:MIKROMB) — up one sen or 3.70% at 28 sen  
  • Affin Bank Bhd (KL:AFFIN) — up two sen or 0.62% at RM3.24
  • Malakoff Corp Bhd (KL:MALAKOFF) — up seven sen or 8.28% at 91.5 sen

  • Barakah Offshore Petroleum Bhd (KL:BARAKAH) up 2.5 sen or 50% at 7.5 sen

The list of stocks with momentum is generated using a proprietary mathematical algorithm highlighting stocks with a build-up in trading volume and price. The algorithm differentiates between stocks that exhibit positive (+ve) momentum and negative (-ve) momentum.

This list is not a buy or sell recommendation. It merely tells you which stocks are seeing higher-than-normal volume and price movements.  

The share price may move up or down from this point. But the “+ve” (suggesting a rising price trend on volume) and “-ve” (suggesting a falling price trend on volume) indicators should give readers a better idea of what the market is buying and when to sell. Note also that momentum generally only persists for a short period of time.

However, each stock has an accompanying fundamental score and valuation score to help readers evaluate the attractiveness of the stocks if they want to ride the momentum.
