IJM Corporation Berhad now looks like one of those large-cap names where the market price may be telling a much weaker story than the underlying business. After Sunway’s takeover attempt lapsed, IJM’s share price fell back toward its pre-offer range, with the stock recently around RM2.31 to RM2.36.
