D＆O is mainly engaged in the manufacturing and sales of semiconductor devices, as well as the development of semiconductor application technology. The company operates in the semiconductor industry and exports its products to different regions such as Asia, Europe, and the USA.
D＆O Green Technologies Bhd (DOGT MK) is expected to see higher customer loadings and a stronger product portfolio in 2025, leading to improved utilization rate and profit growth. However, profit margin recovery is expected to slow down due to rising costs and operational challenges. The company's new PCBA module business is expected to contribute to revenue starting in the fourth quarter of 2024. Despite the challenges, PhillipCapital remains optimistic about D＆O's prospects and maintains a "buy" rating with a lower target price of RM3.00.

This is not a forecast or recommendation, just my personal opinion on the stock market in China. Despite many people having different views, I believe the Chinese stock market will continue to rise. Regarding the Communist Party of China (CCP), it is worth noting that they greatly value "face" and image. Given the tense situation between China and the Western world, I think China will spare no effort to maintain stock market stability, i.e.,...

I believe the event was quite successful and demonstrated the evolution of future transportation. However, when someone with significant financial influence claims it’s not good enough, it doesn’t really matter what the "little guys" like us think—the "big money" always prevails. I suspect that his personal political views have made him some enemies in the financial world. It’s unfortunate, but the truth is, the financia...
