This time, shortist will seek for new low. Better stay away and see. A swing will only happen after huge volume sell down. So far, low volume moving down, more to go down.

Really, nothing to say right, now move to politic issue about PAP supporter or Anti PAP. Temasek is not belong to PAP, GIC too. If 1 day, Lee Family walk away from politic, PAP collapse or break into 2 parties or lose the support from Singaporean. Temasek and GIC are still there, these 2 investment holding are belong to Singapore. It is like world largest fund norway sovereign wealth funds, it is belong to the country and managed by the government. Which party are elected to be the government, they will be the party to manage the fund.

Gone case?  I am talking more about if investing in NOL is a right choice from present till next 6 month to 1 year time. Based on what NOL has now, the company can last  about 2 years till their notes or bond expiry and require to refinance. The 4 billion of borrowing is a poison now and will be the burst 2 year later if NOL fail to pump in cash and the cash will be burnt off by the interest and continue loss making Based on the cash position, business operation condition and etc, NOL need cash,  close to 400 million gain sales of headquarter are used out, there are not positive assets can be sold. The company cannot make profit, but loan has to be served. Right issue will come any time, once it come, share will be diluted(it may not 1 to 1, it may be 1 to 2 or to 4, to raise more cash), share price will drop. Temasek is not charity hub. As what they did before, they may only take over those right which the existing shareholder don' t want or unable to pay and increase Temasek stake. NOL may not gone case, but existing shareholders benefit is gone case.

The fat guy enjoying his million dollar annual salary, He was awarded with million dollar shares since his first day in NOL. After 3 years of his effort, NOL is still the same. He may be thinking how to cash out all his shares now since he may be kicked out from the Group soon.

The more you understand the shipping market, the more you will know chance for NOL to survive is hard, chance for NOL to boom again is almost zero. New container shipping volume under the order in past 2 years will be 16%. World GDP is only 2 to 3% per year. It doesn' t include the new order of new vessels to order with cheaper price in next 2 years.   " Unfortunately, when companies go bankrupt or when their ships get arrested and sold, they do not go away but continue to trade with lower capital costs, thereby prolonging the depressed freight markets." This is the real facts. This is like property bubble, once bubble  burst, it take decade to recovery. The bad news to NOL is P3 are profitable, when competitors managed to be profitable, they will beating the price and occupy more market share. P3 network is fail but doesn' t mean NOL  can survive. Maersk and MSC shipping capacity is equal to G6 total capacity, nothing is changed. |

As we approach midyear 2014, shipping&rsquo s economics remain stuck in the doldrums with little or no recovery in sight. The surplus of ships to cargoes has been aggravated by the delivery of a massive orderbook of new ships that followed the boom markets of the middle of the last decade.   The surplus has affected every market with the possible exception of gas, both LNG and LPG. It has hit the wet and dry bulk and container markets especially hard. The effect has been severe as few ships in these markets generate a profit after operating expenses, debt interest and amortization.   Numerous public companies have gone bankrupt as have many private ones. The German KG funds have been almost completely wiped out and created huge losses for German shipping banks. The average age of the world fleet is at an historic low, meaning it will be around for at least another decade. Unfortunately, when companies go bankrupt or when their ships get arrested and sold, they do not go away but continue to trade with lower capital costs, thereby prolonging the depressed freight markets.   Furthermore, a majority of the fleets in most sectors trade in the spot markets without any period charter cover in the false expectation that markets will recover or secondhand values will increase. This ignores the fact that shipyard capacity remains high, and in countries like Korea and China shipbuilding has now become a strategic industry supported by domestic banks funding the construction phase and government funds backing export credits &ndash all without any secure operating income from charters.   Blind Capital   Unfortunately, this rush to order new ships has been fueled by an influx of new money, both equity and bonds, from private equity and hedge funds that are gambling on rising ship values and not the long-term revenue streams from operations.   The vast majority of ships on order today have no contractual employment and no evidential income other than indications of future ship values referenced back to the boom years of 10 years ago. Some have likened this influx of new money to what Walter Bagehot in the mid-nineteenth century called &ldquo blind capital&rdquo : &ldquo Credulous capital, ignoring risks, flooding into unwise investments.&rdquo   Tellingly, there is no sign of any investment interest from mutual funds or institutional investors such as pension funds or life insurance companies, which are usually averse to short-term gambles. The speculative day traders have fun playing the rumors and the price volatility of the publicly traded companies.   Especially surprising is the activity of some of private equity funds in buying distressed bank debt at marginal discounts. If a shipowner cannot service his existing bank debt, how is he going to service the new owners of the debt when they have much higher expectations of return on their investments than simple bank margins?   It has been said that some of these funds are looking for default so they can convert the loans to equity, take over the ships, and sell them for a profit. The track record of these deals so far is not good, and the current focus on newbuildings only prolongs excess fleet capacity and lower freight rates, which are the key metrics of the shipping industry.   The list of publicly traded shipping companies on U.S. stock exchanges is the worst performing of any sector. Original equity has been emasculated by secondary offerings and huge secured debts that in many cases exceed the current market value of the ships that are the security. In the past 12 months we have seen the emergence of new forms of &ldquo junk bonds&rdquo with double-digit interest rates that rapidly escalate on default and look more like the cash advance lending that proliferates among the poor. This junk is surprisingly not shown as debt in the borrower&rsquo s balance sheets and is ironically termed &ldquo perpetual.&rdquo   No Evidence of Increased Demand   So while new money is finding the shipping industry, what is the outlook for the services it provides? The freight markets for most ship types remain severely depressed because of the excess capacity generated by the newbuilding orders that followed the brief boom of 10 years ago and then faced the financial crises and the global recession that still envelops the world today. Yet it is reported that some $40 billion of newbuilding orders were placed in the first four months of 2014.   This current reckless activity in ordering hundreds of new ships will only extend further the bad markets and push any balancing between supply and demand into the next decade at the earliest. The claims of fuel economies for the new ships will not force earlier scrapping as the older ships have less capital invested in them and can be maintained to operate until they are at least 20 years old.   There is no evidence of any increased demand for shipping, except in the gas sectors, and the newfound resources of oil and gas in the U.S. will have a negative effect on crude oil shipments. This may well be compounded by the new pipelines between Russia and China, the reduction in consumption of gasoline in China, and the expansion of &ldquo fracking&rdquo in Europe. The U.S. will reduce its imports of crude oil by at least 50 percent in the next 10 years and convert its trucking fleets to natural gas by 2025.   It unfortunately will take several years before the current influx of new money faces the reality that it is operating income that makes a business and not the fluctuating values of the operating assets. &ndash MarEx   |

Potential? What Potential can NOL has? 16% of new vessels are going to be delivered in next 2 years which imply minimum 1 to 2 years for the industry to suffer except P3. All containers are crazily looking for money to fill their loss and to look for survival. http://www.maritime-executive.com/article/OPED-The-Shipping-Recovery-That-Never-Arrived-2014-06-04

http://www1.chineseshipping.com.cn/en/indices/scfi.jsp Those shipping journal always very positive, picked up steam???? If there is picked up steam why the freight rate is dropping and demand a rate hike. Don' t be fooled by all these news which always saying rate hiking due to demand, instead, the rate drop till too low and require a wake up call to all shipping company that they need to cut their supply.   So far, only Maersk shouting for rate hike will be materialised like in  2012. So, basically, Maersk seldom do it since 2013, because they are profitable.

long term long term. Down to below 30cents, I doubt so. DMG is in play what to do, a lot of disappointments will happen. They are holding insider news, they know what happen. How I wish Gallant is covered by DBS.

The loss that NOL made cannot be covered by any asset sales. The loss is just too huge, we are talking about billion of loss. In SGX, you can' t find any company can make loss this way but still listed there. Only reason, again, Temasek.

To retailer shorting, who shorting NOL is not wise, because retail shortist have to pay heavy interest and commission. But for Fund managers or brokers or other BBs who have the special account will be different, they will have absolutely sufficient patient to deal with the shorting giant case like NOL, this is to short a billion market capital company. I will believe the possibility of right issue is high, short sell now and cover with right in the future soon. I am not vested and not shorting. Lucky, you post facts and believe your decision which I respect. But I am kepo to post negative facts is to let new comers to have other thinking and not to mislead by the one who continually posting positive till unreasonable recently. The fact is  NOL content huge risk and current share price doesn' t reflect the real situation that NOL facing.

Breakout to new low will not come in next few week. NOL will slowly down and move across new low 94, breakout to new low close to 70 to 80, it will happen in next 3 to 6 month, especially NOL fails to deliver again in next coming quarter, market will look at it cash position and heavy debt and punish it heavily.

G6 total capacity is about same as Maersk and MSC. Basically Maersk and MSC are 2 x G6 with same policy and consistency. No matter what G6 do, hardly touching Maersk and MSC margin since G6 are independent organisation with own interest. Yesterday shorting volume is 1237 lots, increase 50% compared to past 6 days total shorting volume. warning signal for next breakout to new low.

Johor population doesn' t support the project and most of the talents in Johor biggest city, Johor Bahru are working in Singapore. Iskandar project is pushed out due to the BN lossing the control of 2 biggest and developed state, Selangor and Penang in last 2 election and trying to find a new ground for bribe money. Housing development, so far is good(rely on singapore economic)  however, industry and economic development are not as good as penang and selangor. Let' see what is going to happen in next few years The main reason for supporting Gallant Venture is looking forward the opportunity in Indomobil which has 90% above revenue from here. Development of Batam and Bintan are slow which may not has any big impact to the revenue, l won' t put too much hope on this sector since building a airport or aviation center take many years to be materialise, this can only be used for speculating. However, Indomobil are the one to be looking forward, under Salim group control, can Indomobil perform as good as Astra International which is owned by Jardine C& C and achieve the similar profit margin is the one that I am looking forward. Market cap close to 1.7Billion with about 2 Billion annual revenue and NAV about 40cents above. Gallant Venture definitely is worth for investment. My price is 26.5cents, I won' t say current price 34.5 is a good entry price since I won' t add in any share with this price which doesn' t comply my earlybird principal.
