The strong support by the government through the relaxation and lifting of certain restrictions and regulations on property ownerships, have attracted investments in the Malaysian property market. This research studies the factors affecting the performance of 36 property firms listed on the Main Board of Bursa Malaysia from 2003 to 2007. This research employed ordinary least squares （OLS） method to represent all the variables comprising stock performance, return on assets （ROA）, return on equity （ROE）, debt ratio （DR）, net profit margin （NPM）, effective tax rate （ETR）, earnings per share （EPS）, and price earning （PE） ratio. Results show that ROA, ROE, and EPS have strong significant relationships with the property stock performance. Although it is a small sample size, some relevant changes and modifications can be included in future studies to obtain better results.展开更多
