As at 12.28pm, the counter was up 13.88% to RM19.36 after heading to the ATH level this morning around RM19.90 and was listed as the 5th most profitable counter.
At RM19.36, SAM Engineering shares displayed a market capitalization gain of RM2.62 billion with 841,300 shares traded.

Judging by the report stated on September 15, the company had closed two factories in Penang for 14 days for clean -up purposes based on the guidelines of the Ministry of Health (MOH).
It follows that some subcontractor workers at the plant tested positive after a Covid-19 screening test and were ordered to close for a while by the ministry.
