Loss-making Sugar Bun Corporation Bhd (SUGAR : stockcode 7036), which was queried by Bursa Malaysia on Oct 30 following the recent surge in the prices of its securities today tumbled by almost 30% (dropped by RM 0.88) from last Friday’s closing of RM 2.94 to RM 2.06 at lunch-hour closing wiping out almost RM 96 million of it’s value.

As expected, stocks which are not fundamentally sound are the most vulnerable. Furthermore the stock with 109 million floating shares are easy target for speculators (to make money) who are preying on the easy-target man-on-the-street. I was really cautious and uneasy with the newly announced exercise by Sugar.

Nevertheless people who jumped in earlier and managed to control their emotion and made money by profit-taking should be smiling now.

Always remember “Bulls & Bears make money but Pigs get slaughtered”
