Valuation

Kimlun (trading at RM2.04 as at 12:00pm) is now trading at a PER of 7.6 times (based on last 4 quarters’ EPS of 27 sen). At this PER, Kimlun is deemed fairly attractive.

Technical Outlook

Kimlun has broken to the upside of a pennant formation, ABCD at RM1.95 yesterday. Today it went above the psychological RM2.00 mark. Collectively, these breakouts suggest that Kimlun is continuing on its prior uptrend.

If we look at the monthly chart, we can see that the next resistance would be at the June 2013 high of RM2.05. Failure to break above this level could bring forth correction/consolidation at the RM2.00 mark. However, a break below the RM1.95 could convert this bullish breakout into a bull trap. In such a tricky situation, you should set a protective stop, say at RM1.90 (i.e. 5 sen below the breakout of RM1.95) to bale out in case the breakout turns into a trap.
