OSK Research upgrades Supermax, TP RM10

If this stock hit RM 10, this would be my ten bagger stock call. Since the company is focussing on organic growth, to generate winning streaks earning growth will not be on a smooth path. One also needs to be mindful that rubber price has been on the uptrend, soon cyclical costs like energy cost and macro trend like Ringgit strength and etc will come into play. I'm, however, still deeply satisfied with a six and a half bagger(RM 6 - 6.5). It's time to take profit and wait for correction to re-enter.

"Maintain Buy with higher target price of RM10.00 from RM7.94 previously," said the research house on Monday, Feb 22.
