3 ways to evaluate Plantation Stocks

Koon Yew Yin 24 April 2022 

The best way to compare plantation stocks is to total up the FFB production for the last 3 months for each company and divided by its Market capitalisation. The reason is that all the plantation companies will have to report their profit for the quarter ending March before the end of May. Due the record high CPO price all the planation companies will report increased profit. Which will report the best profit in comparison with its market capitalisation?
