Maybank may have a bullish breakout

Maybank has just broken above its strong horizontal resistance at RM9.30. Its target is likely to be its next resistance at RM10.00. The run-up would coincide with the announcement of the ex-date for its 33-sen dividend which was proposed in February. The likely ex-date will in in April.

Based on technical consideration and the fact that Maybank is a fairly attractive banking stock (here), the stock could be a good trading BUY.
