植耀輝: 美股變數仍多宜審慎 公司改名利股價?
阿思達克 11-11 10:49
耀才證券研究部總監植耀輝稱,美國總統大選隨著拜登進行全國演說宣稱勝出而稍為變得明朗化,不過接下來特朗普會有何行動,對當地政經局勢又會否帶來影響仍值得大家留意。事實上即使拜登勝出,但其面對的挑戰亦相當嚴峻,單是今次大選有約一半選民投給特朗普,如何修補這撕裂關係已非易事,而且投票予拜登之選民,不少皆抱著「Anyone but Trump」心態,所以實際支持度恐怕並不高,未來施政亦肯定舉步為艱。

最大挑戰還是如何處理疫情及中美關係。輝瑞(PFE.US)及BioNTech(BNTX.US)公布新疫苗消息無疑一大利好,但此病毒本身已出現多個變種,是否有效仍有待觀察。至於後者更須「步步為營」,若與中方過於親密則增加早前醜聞可信性,維持現況又可能與現時市場預期有所落差。總之,在明年1月20日新總統正式就職前,情況仍然相當複雜,投資者樂觀的同時,亦宜為情況轉差作一定打算。

近來花了不少篇幅談美國大選,亦該跟大家談一些輕鬆話題。上市公司改名時有發生,特別是當公司控股權易手,改名某程度上是反映公司未來業務之大方向,例如灣區發展(00737.HK)前身為合和公路基建,前大股東合和在出售其控股權予深圳市投資控股公司後,易名亦是相當合理;另外,當公司業務轉營,或想突顯重心業務,亦會透過改名加深投資者印象,近期擬改名之晶門科技(02878.HK)便是一個例子。

該公司早前建議將中文名稱改為晶門半導體,理由在於「令本公司之企業形象及身份更符合本集團之業務發展,特別是在大中華市場之發展」(通告內容)。晶門科技主要從事設計、開發及銷售專有IC產品及系統解決方案,於2004年上市,上市至今業務基本上沒有大變,而業績表現則較為波動,近五個財年均錄得虧損,今年上半年則由虧轉盈。筆者認為集團將名稱由「科技」改為「半導體」,似乎是希望令更多投資者留意到公司業務,畢竟不少與半導體相關之股份均熱炒,但晶門卻是「斯人獨憔悴」,交投疏落之餘,IC產品市場競爭其實亦相當大,所以即使改名,亦不宜有太大寄望矣!

不過有時候改名又真的對股價有正面幫助,友誼時光(06820.HK)上市時名稱為FriendTimes,或者是英名名稱未能吸引投資者目光,故該公司更改一個中文名稱亦合理。而該公司於三月初宣布有關消息,股價當時未見太大反應;但到正式改名5月15日後,股價開始有所異動,由2.78元起步,不足兩個月累升近五成!不過其後走勢開始無以為繼,加上業績表現未如理想,結果現時股價又跌至只得2.23元。

由此亦證明,改名一時三刻可能會吸引到投資者目光,但即使名稱創意無限又或霸氣十足,只是如公司未能交出應有成績表,股價縱升亦難以持久。
