Resorts World (RM2.33): Buy
Home is where the heart is
We maintain our Buy call on Resorts and upgrade TP to RM3.10. It stays one of our favourite gaming group as we believe that earnings will remain resilient even after the two integrated resorts in Singapore start operations. Also, there is lower risk of RPTs and cash calls on its cash pile, and rising M&A potential. It trades on low 8x 2010 PER ex-cash.

Technicals
The market still closed lower, despite some a mild rebound from earlier losses.
Daily Technical Outlook
The KLCI declined slightly to close at 966.60 yesterday. Investors
could buy on dips to the support areas of 944 and 966 as the KLCI is
poised to eventually attack the intermediate targets of 972.00 and
993.73 on route to 1,008.25 (2.62 extension ratio of this current
minor Wave 3/4C rise) as its next stop. This “rebound run” is still part
and parcel of a Wave 4 Flat (3-3-5) correction off its 801.27 (Major
Wave 3) low. As such, buy on dips while being sensitive to any
downturn in the KLCI, using 942 as its key short-term stop-loss point.
The resistance areas of 972 and 993 may cap market gains for now.
The overnight gains in the Dow last night may bolster confidence of
local investors today, and will see the KLCI moving back to higher
levels. Among the technical buy stocks that we like are: AIRPORT,
ASTRO, AXIATA, DRBHCOM, GENTING, KLCC, ORIENT,
PROTON, TENAGA, UCHITEC, YLI and ZHULIAN.

great potential to reach its stipulated resistance and target areas of RM2.34 and RM2.42. Stop-loss is at
RM1.63.
