EON: Is the worst over?

Background

Proton share price has broken above its medium-term downtrend line at the RM5.00 level in the w/e November 10, 2006 amidst news reports that the Government was contemplating selling off a stake in Proton manufacturing plant in Tanjong Malim. Since then, Proton has gained 30-35% (see Chart 1 below).

What about EON?

EON's problems are just as intractable as Proton's. From Chart 2, we can see that EON has broken out of its medium-term downtrend line (bb) in the w/e August 18, 2006 at the RM2.00 level. Despite the breakout, EON has moved sideway in a bottoming-out process (where the share price has been drifting in a slightly sloping channel). Yesterday, EON broke above the upper channel at the RM2.15 level (see Chart 3). With this, I believe EON share price is likely to move higher from now on. Resistances can be seen at the RM2.60, 2.90 & 3.00 level.
