PETALING JAYA: HCK Capital Group Bhd is acquiring a third plot of land measuring 1.234 acres within the Setia City BizPark in Bukit Raja, Selangor, for RM19.35mil.
In a filing with Bursa Malaysia, the property developer said it had acquired the plot from Bandar Setia Alam Sdn Bhd.
'With the acquisition of plot three, the total and combined cash consideration for the acquisition of plot one, plot two and plot three now stands at RM57.99mil.'
HCK Capital said the proposed acquisition aligned with its strategy to expand its land bank in prime growth corridors of Selangor, enabling future property development with high growth potential.
'The land is located within the established Setia City BizPark, a mature commercial precinct in the Bukit Raja region, which is well-connected by highways and surrounded by established townships.
'The strategic location and strong demand for commercial properties in the area are expected to enhance HCK Group's earnings over the medium to long term.'
The proposed acquisition is subject to the usual risks associated with property development including regulatory approvals, market demand, construction risks, and changes in economic conditions, it added.

Bursa Malaysia rises in anticipation of corporate results, Fed meet

KUALA LUMPUR: Shares on Bursa Malaysia rose in line with other Asian markets as investors await the upcoming Jackson Hole Symposium for signs the Federal Reserve will slash interest rates at the next policy meeting. There is also growing anticipation for more buying leads on the domestic market as the corporate earnings season hits its stride this week. At 12.30pm, the FBM KLCI was up 7.36 points to 1,583.59, defying analyst expectations of a cautious wait-and-see approach to the coming week's developments.

Among the top gainers, Hong Leong Bank gained 28 sen to RM19.90, YTL Power rose 14 sen to RM4.34 and Gamuda gained 11 sen to RM4.71. YTL Power's parent company YTL Corp was up 10 sen to RM2.69.

Later this week, Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell will speak at the the Jackson Hole symposium where he would share the central bank's economic and policy outlook. Asian markets are looking forward to these events with China's stock markets among the most improved on Monday. The Shanghai composite index rose 1.18% to 3,740 and the CSI 300 was up 1.5% to 4,265.

Foreign Investors Extend Selling Streak To 6 Weeks, Net Outflow Eases RM566 Million

Foreign investors continued to pare down their holdings on Bursa Malaysia for the sixth consecutive week, recording a net outflow of RM566.1 million for the week ended Friday. The figure, however, marked a sharp 50% reduction from the prior week's RM1.14 billion outflow. According to Kenanga, foreign investors were net sellers on all five trading days, with daily outflows ranging from RM94 million to RM167.4 million. The heaviest selling was seen on Friday, followed by Thursday (–RM103.5m), Tuesday (–RM101.5m), and Monday (–RM99.8m). Wednesday posted the smallest withdrawal. By sector, foreign investors channelled funds into Plantations (RM77.7m), Property (RM52.7m), and Financial Services (RM42.2m). Meanwhile, the sectors facing the largest net foreign outflows were Utilities (–RM209.5m), Telecommunication & Media (–RM185.5m), and Healthcare (–RM152.7m). On the domestic front, local institutions extended their net buying streak to a third week, with inflows of RM760.5m, helping cushion the foreign sell-off. In contrast, local retailers turned net sellers, reversing five straight weeks of buying, with a net outflow of RM194.4m. Trading activity was broadly higher across the board, except for local retailers. Average daily trading volume (ADTV) rose +8.9% for local institutions and +1.5% for foreign investors, but slipped –3% for retailers. Market watchers say foreign flows will likely remain sensitive to global risk sentiment, with upcoming US economic data and geopolitical developments expected to guide trading direction
