PORTEK CRASHED more than 60% overnight to close at 20 cents on Tuesday (Nov 4) after it announced that the past year’s talks of selling itself had been called off.

Yesterday, it inched down half a cent to close at 19.5 cents, slightly lower than its cash per share of 20 cents.

That was when chairman Lam Choon Seng of the port terminal and container crane operator bought half a million shares at 20 cents apiece.

What is Portek’s position and valuation compared to other port players?

My humble opinion: the past few days were great opportunities to dispose of junk stocks that you have. - MacGyver

Last night, Cambridge Industrial Reit announced that UBS has bought 1,044,000 units of the reit.- Harlequin

Courage Marine's stock price most closely reflects the Baltic Dry Index as it is a pure dry bulk shipping company with mostly spot charters. – Eagle

KK Kuah, chairman and CEO of MTQ.

MTQ Corporation trades at a forward PE of about 3X and offers a dividend yield of around 6.7%.

That’s based on the company’s statement that its second-half performance could be as profitable as the first half when it enjoyed a 125% jump in operating profit.

Not bad for such tough times.

Its chairman and CEO, KK Kuah, spoke with analysts and the media yesterday at a lunch at the Tower Club.
