KUALA LUMPUR (April 19): theedgemarkets.com highlighted five stocks with momentum at Bursa Malaysia’s afternoon close today. Two stocks had positive momentum while three had negative momentum.
Stocks with positive momentum were:
Benalec Holdings Bhd – up 1.5 sen at 21.5 sen
DWL Resources Bhd – up 16 sen at RM1.26
Stocks with negative momentum were :
Redtone International Bhd – up three sen at 37 sen
Success Transformer Corp Bhd – up 13 sen at 94 sen
Ekovest Bhd – up 5.5 sen at 64.5 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.
