Tiger doesn't understand why shares soar and plunge, and quite honestly Tiger doesn't give a toss about these man-made type of dramas - dramas which are full of faecal matter, to put it delicately.
But how things change... the news of the premier's son, Mohd Nazifuddin Najib, looking at buying into Eastland Equity (formerly known as Furqan Business Organisation Bhd) made its way into the jungle, making even the likes of Tiger take notice.
And making it more heroic, Nazifuddin is thwarting the bad guys Teh Soon Seng and co from coming in to Eastland Equity, a report from a news agency said.
Overheard at the stream near Tiger's lair, "And just what does Eastland Equity do?" a Sang Kancil (mousedeer to you foreign types) asks.
In quick unison a school of ikan haruan answered, "Owns the Renaissance Hotel in Kota Baru."
Sang Kancil, almost fell into the stream, "You mean they have a Renaissance in Kota Baru?"
(We will discuss the merits of living in Kota Baru another day)
Tiger now understands why Eastland Equity's stock surged from below 50 sen late last month to more than double, to RM1.18 at the close, in what many would call a meteoric rise.
But then again Tiger concedes, Tiger knows little of how the human brain works and why humans would fight over Eastland Equity. Seriously what are Nazifuddin and Teh fighting about? The hotel in Kota Baru? But it can't be doing that great... it's in Kota Baru for crying out loud.
The company share price thanks to Nazifuddin and Teh, has surged way ahead of its net asset per share of 73 sen.
