Valuation
DLady (closed at RM45.90 yesterday) is now trading at a PE of 27 times (based on last 4 quarters' EPS of 169 sen). At this PE, DLady is deemed fully valued.
Technical Outlook
Since October 2012, DLady has been moving sideways around RM46-48. Its indicators have weakened steadily, with monthly MACD hooked down & William %R at the 50-mark. A breakout of the trading range of RM46-48 will point the way forward for the stock.

Conclusion
Based on demanding valuation & technical weakness, I would rate DLady as a REDUCE.

Hi Alex, can you comment on DRB Hcom ? The share price have drop so much and i don't know whether to keep or sell. What is your opinion on the next support price? Please and thanks for the comment.
Hi lai,
Presbhd's financial results have been declining for the past 4 quarters. Its EPS is 6 sen for last 4 quarters. At curent price of RM1.57, the stock has a PE of 26 times.
Chartwise, it retraced RM1.00 from the high of RM2.40 to its recent low of RM1.40. That means it retraced about 55% of its gain of RM1.80 (since it rose from RM0.60).
Its strong support is at long-term uptrend line & horizontal line support at RM1.40 while its strong resistance is at RM1.70.
Given the high PE, you can afford to wait. At RM1.40-1.45, you can try to trade for rebound.
Hi andy
The market was waiting for Proton's new compact car introduction & a possible recovery for its slacking sales. Unfortunately, the well-designed car did not pull in the sales.
The chart seems to point towards further weakness. I see the support at RM1.50.
