The call was made on December 14, when the closing price of Rs 706.4 was in effect. This price implied a 31.72% increase in value.

Due to the double whammy of declining growth and delays in structure simplification, as well as the delay and penalty from the regulatory end, the company's stock has significantly underperformed the market and its peers. Currently selling at a P/EV of 1.6x for FY24E, the company's shares attribute extremely little (implied 6x FY25 VNB) structural value to such a powerful franchise. According to the brokerage's opinion, Max Financial's share price will undergo a sustained re-rating after the company achieves progress on structure simplification and sees a rebound in growth. Emkay Global said.

The company's September quarter net profit increased by 29% to Rs 51.29 crore, compared to Rs 39.63 crore in the same quarter of the prior fiscal year.

Comparing the second quarter of the current fiscal year to the second quarter of the previous fiscal year, sales were flat at Rs 9316 crore compared to Rs 9325 crore.

The economy of Malaysia is expected to slow down in 2023.

According to statements made by analysts on Thursday, the economy of Malaysia will slow down in 2023 as a result of adverse external conditions and a slowdown in internal demand. According to Xinhua news agency, the Maybank Investment Bank Research said in a research that it anticipates Malaysia's full-year growth to drop to 4 percent in 2023 from the growth prediction of 8 percent in 2022. This is mostly reflective of a moderation in domestic demand. As pent-up spending from the complete economic re-opening evaporates next year, the research house anticipates slower growth in private consumption. This will be compounded by the effects of high inflation and high interest rates on the cost of living and real disposable income. It also forecasts a slowdown in the expansion of private consumption, which is expected to be in line with the reduced allocation for government operating expenses in Budget 2023. In addition, it was said that the forecast for slower global economic developmen

7-Day Wait for Vote to Fix Compound CETH Market Bricked By Update

A recent governance proposal to update the pricing feeds of Compound, a decentralized lending platform, was hampered by a programming error. Although the Compound ETH (cETH) market has "temporarily halted" due to the coding fault, Compound Labs assured users that their money is not in danger right away despite the front end's malfunction. On August 31, Compound Labs revealed that the code error originated from Proposal 117: Compound Oracle Upgrade v3, which had just been put into place to upgrade the oracle contracts on the Compound protocol to a new version that uses Uniswap V3 rather than V2 for price feeds. Compound Labs stated that it intended to use Proposal 119: Oracle Update to return to the prior price feed in response to the cETH market briefly freezing. Despite being created less than an hour after Proposal 117 was carried out, the new proposal must now go through a seven-day governance process before it can go into effect.
