Senators Still Undecided on Tax Reform. Yesterday, the ways and
means committee had a meeting to tackle the Tax Reform
Acceleration and Inclusion Bill. However, the team did not reach any
decision according to committee chairman Juan Edgardo Angara.
Discussions in the meeting included the proposed taxes on
petroleum, sweet beverages, and ways to cushion the impact to the
poor. The proposed tax on the sugar sweetened beverages poses a
risk for consumer stocks like URC, LTG, JFC, and PIP as it will
definitely affect the margins of these companies when the
additional tax measures are passed.
Logistics Faults to Surface in Shift to E-commerce. With Singapore
taking over the chairmanship of the ASEAN next year, plans to focus
on e-commerce initiative to improve regional trade, and the
possibility of exposing infrastructure and technology gaps in the
Philippines arises. According to PSBC chairman Loh Chin Hua, the
Philippines are lagging in terms of infrastructure and technology
which are essential factors for the success of the logistics industry;
this poses a threat for logistic companies in the Philippines such as
2GO, LBC, and CLC which is to conduct its IPO listing on August 8.
However, the growing e-commerce trend is also an opportunity for
SSI which has the largest brand portfolio among retail companies.
