• razo2 : this is not true. this clearly shows that PCE is lagging by a lot. last CPI reading oil is at 75. today oil is back at 82. it will show in the MoM reading sooner or later. that is why the market is doubtful about the federal government, heck even some of the new members are doubtful of themselves.

• ZnWC : I am not a holder of HPL stock. The share price has already been affected by the arrest of HPL's MD due to retail investors started panic selling. It is natural for anyone who hold HPL's share to feel anxious.
  My investment decision largely is based on the fundamental of the company and the corporate governance is part of it. The long term catastrophic effect will be determined if there's any criminal or malpractice in the running of the company. At this moment, it is too early to tell.

• bubbleberrygum : hmm. imo, how impactful ong Beng seng's arrest / case will have on HPL's stock price will depend largely on how closely the public associates ong with HPL. if ong can be distanced from HPL and seen as a separate entity that is different from the stock or company, then, I feel that HPL can still thrive even if its main head is charged. but, however, if the public cannot separate the two, and sees OBS as a direct representation of the co and vice versa, then, I feel that the share price will be negatively impacted for a reasonable amount of time. at least more than a year to recover perhaps. if ongs successor is also from the ong family, then  shareholders' impression won't be much changed I feel and it'll be difficult to renew their confidence in the stock I feel.
  imo, realistically wise, I feel the impact will be medium-term and that yes, although the reputation of hpl will be affected, I feel that if a brand new management totally unlinked with OBS steps up, this can distance hpl from obs and renew shareholders' confidence in hpl and revive shares again. hence, I feel that the impact is more medium term than long term. furthermore, the properties under hpl are still good properties like intercontinental etc. so with a continuous solid performance, investors may still be keen in them. however, there is a risk of it losing revenue due to lost business deals bcos of the corruption matter
