INITIATING COVERAGE

Media Chinese International Limited RM0.875: Buy
Ride this dragon Shariah-compliant

Initiate coverage with a Buy call and RM1.22 TP. We like Media Chinese International (MCIL) for its dominance in the Chinese newspaper segment. With growing circulation, it will be able to capture a larger share of newspaper adex. Trading at an attractive 10x CY11 PER (lowest among the media stocks) and offering a decent 5.3% net dividend yield (highest among peers), MCIL offers value. Investors can also expect M&As or higher dividends for more upside potential.


Technicals
The FBM KLCI rose 10.81 points to 1,505.33 on Monday. Its resistance areas of 1,505 and 1,541 will cap market gains, whilst the weaker support areas are located at 1,474 and 1,500.

Trading idea for today is a TAKE PROFIT call on RHBCAP.
