KUALA LUMPUR (July 2): theedgemarkets.com highlighted eight stocks with momentum at Bursa Malaysia’s afternoon market close today. Three stocks showed positive momentum while five showed negative momentum.

The stocks with positive momentum are:

Oriented Media Group Bhd (fundamental: 1.2; valuation: 0) up two sen at 35 sen

Kim Hin Industry Bhd (fundamental: 2.5; valuation: 2.6) up seven sen at RM1.96

Comintel Corp Bhd (fundamental: 0.55; valuation: 0.9) up one sen at 33 sen

The stocks with negative momentum are:

Homeritz Corp Bhd (fundamental: 1.95; valuation: 1.5) up five sen at RM1.51

D’nonce Technology Bhd  (fundamental: 0.95; valuation: 0.9) unchanged at 44.5 sen.

Jerasia Capital Bhd (fundamental: 0.8; valuation: 1.7) up four sen at 98.5 sen.

The list of stocks with momentum is generated using a proprietary mathematical algorithm highlighting stocks with a build-up in trading volume and price. The algorithm differentiates between stocks that exhibit positive (+ve) momentum and negative (-ve) momentum.

This list is not a buy or sell recommendation. It merely tells you which stocks are seeing higher than normal volume and price movements. The share price may move up or down from this point. But the "+ve" (suggesting a rising price trend on volume) and "-ve" (suggesting a falling price trend on volume) indicators should give readers a better idea of what the market is buying and when to sell.  Note also that momentum generally only persists for a short period of time.

However, each stock has an accompanying fundamental score and valuation score to help readers evaluate the attractiveness of the stocks, if they want to ride the momentum.

(Note: The Edge Research's fundamental score reflects a company’s profitability and balance sheet strength, calculated based on historical numbers. The valuation score determines if a stock is attractively valued or not, also based on historical numbers. A score of 3 suggests strong fundamentals and attractive valuations.)
