Positive CPO price sentiment likely to sustain into 2020

Plantation sector Upgrade to overweight: We are turning more positive on the plantation sector as we believe the current positive crude palm oil (CPO) price sentiment will sustain into 2020 due to supply constraints arising from potential palm production deficits in Malaysia and Indonesia, lower soybean output in the US and more positive demand prospects (arising from higher biodiesel mandates in Malaysia and Indonesia from 2020 as well as the spreading of African swine fever [ASF]). Given our more bullish stance on the sectorâ€™s prospects, we raise our average CPO price assumption for 2020 to 2021 by RM200 per tonne to RM2,400 per tonne, and upgrade our rating for the sector to â€œoverweightâ€. Our top picks are FGV Holdings Bhd (â€œbuyâ€; target price [TP]: RM1.42), Genting Plantations Bhd (â€œbuyâ€; TP: RM11.18), Hap Seng Plantations Holdings Bhd (â€œbuyâ€; TP: RM1.68), Kuala Lumpur Kepong Bhd (â€œbuyâ€; TP: RM24.37) and TSH Resources Bhd (â€œbuyâ€; TP: RM1.05).
