OCBC and UOB will rise in the coming week, on account of divestment plans being realised (read, Robinson for OCBC). Fat dividends await holders of these two banks. For the risk averse but nonetheless greedy investors, these two banks are ideal for accumulation now.

At this point, if I were a fundmanager, after pushing the price high high it is time to sell to the commonmen so that they will panic sell lower to me. heeheeheeheehee However at this point it is hard to determine what is a high price.

Sharenewbie - I'm just sharing the latest news. Agree with Panache that there should not be any market impact as we are already treating the case as SARS regardless of the lab test results which were unknown then (Sep 10?).

Mccool,

Your equation was just 1/3 correct. The impact of the positive result and subsequent mitigating measures were already been discounted in the market. Hence it wouldn't surprised the market.

The 2/3 of the equation would depend on the amount of leakages in contact tracings. It's not 100% fool proof and wouldn't ELIMINATE risk totally.

The final 3/3 of the equation would depend on the outcome(s) of those serving HQOs. As the infected person was only detected at the middle stage of infection, he posed a significant chance of passing the virus to others.

The 2nd and 3rd part of the equation clears after 14 calendar days from the onset of this event. Hence, risk premium prevails until the situation is crystal clear If one is a Fund Manager with millions from investors, do you think (from the point of risk management)he/she will take the risk and faces scrutinization if one part of the equation falls apart?

Further confirms previous analysis that the deaths were probably by the "overdose" of the bodies' immune system in addition to those supplied by the drugs?

Kim Eng says:

Singapore's August trade statistics will be released on Wednesday, September 17. We expect non-oil domestic exports to rise 14% from a year ago in S$ terms, compared to a 10% yoy increase in July 2003 (see Figure 1). Exports are expected to get a lift from the global economic recovery, which started around the middle of this year. Leading indicators of economic activity suggest that the pick up in global demand will accelerate towards the end of 2003 and into the next year.

Should be good sign. The mid cap and penny being rally for awhile and the next factor that can bring them to new high is through the rising index. Current pull back will give the index some up room while carrying the penny and mid cap up too... at least that is what I hope.

DJ MARKET TALK/SG: Initial SARS Test On HK Woman Negative
16 September 2003, 09:51



0151 GMT [Dow Jones] Some relief likely in HK as doctors say initial test on woman with SARS-like symptoms was negative; more definitive lab test now being done, results likely due by 0400 GMT. Woman hasn't been traveling, isn't healthcare or laboratory worker, none of her relatives are ill, so hopes may be fairly high this a false alarm; recent Singapore SARS case suspected due to man catching disease in a lab. But HK market may wait for definitive word given outbreak earlier in year caused much damage to economy.(RXM)

Hi Zombie, semitech not moving already.
Anyway, if marine, ship related sectors are the next big thing, should look into SinwaKS. Been overlooked for a very long time. Rated Buy from iOCBC but still under perform for quite awhile. Fundamentally good counter too.

OUTLOOK - Singapore stockmarket consolidation seen shortlived; STI to trend up
16 September 2003, 9:49

----by Daryl Loo----

SINGAPORE (AFX-ASIA) - The local stock market's current consolidation is likely to be short-lived, with the benchmark Straits Times Index (STI) set to climb towards the 1,750-1,900 points range next year, dealers said.

The market has made a healthy comeback in recent months, peaking at a year-high of 1,640.19 points on August 22 since hitting a year-low of 1,213.82 points in the midst of the SARS crisis in March 10.

But when a new confirmed SARS case was announced last week, the market tumbled 42.14 points in a single day on September 9, 2003, amid fears that the latest case could trigger another wider outbreak.

However, analysts and fund managers told AFX-Asia that the latest SARS scare should not cause much more than a blip on the radar screen, with the market expected to get back on track quickly now that the country is much better prepared to deal with any fresh outbreak of the killer disease.

ING Financial Markets research head Soong Tuck Yin said that its positive outlook for Singapore "still stands" despite the SARS scare last week.

In a recent research report, ING raised its 12-month STI target to 1,750 from 1,720, with United Overseas Bank, Keppel Corp, Singapore Press Holdings, Venture Corp and Neptune Orient Lines as its top picks for Singapore.

"The team has upgraded earnings and price targets for a number of large caps. We expect market EPS (earnings per share) growth of 17.70 pct this year and 21.00 pct next year," Soong said.

Citigroup Smith Barney is also bullish on Singapore stocks.

In a research note last week, Citigroup raised its 12-month STI target to 1880, based on an "improving economy coupled with reduced costs, which should drive strong earnings recovery in 2004."

Wealth management firm iFAST Financial's executive chairman Lim Chung Chun agrees that the Singapore market should trend upwards in the next 12 months, and he sees the index hitting 1,900 on the back of a recovering economy.

"According to the economic numbers that are coming up, the various Asian economies are seeing improvements, and corporate earnings should see decent growth," Lim said.

"Also, we're seeing an acceleration of economic activity in the Asian markets, which also means more foreign investments should start coming in," he added.

Kim Eng Securities research head Seah Hiang Hong said the latest SARS scare would not derail the Singapore economy's recovery.

"With external demand accounting for two-thirds of the economy, a bouyant OECD in the months ahead will bode well for export-oriented Singapore," he said.

However, Seah is cautious on the STI's outlook for the near-term.

"We feel that the STI is fairly valued right now and should stay below the 1,600 level in the short term," Seah told AFX-Asia.

He urged caution on the domestically-oriented blue chips and sees any rebound from here as a good opportunity to sell these counters.

Seah is recommending that investors seek out stocks that are dependent on external demand like Venture, SingTel, and small caps like Magnecomp, Goodpack and Fu Yu.

Morley Fund Management fund manager Kum Soek Ching said the ongoing consolidation in the market is necessary for it to be able sustain its uptrend.

"The index has gone up a lot this year -- around 30 pct, from the 1,200's to almost 1,600 -- so it's taking a much-needed breather."

"But I think the second half of 2003 is going to be much better due to good corporate earnings, and the market should start moving up again on the strength of the US recovery," Kum said.

She especially likes the offshore marine plays like Jaya Holdings and Keppel Corp, which are benefiting from a booming oil and gas sector.

[Dow Jones] Asia's small cap stocks still offer better value for money than blue chips, says JF Asset Management's Jeffrey Roskell; small caps "offer some of the best combinations of growth and value in the global equity universe. Smaller companies can grow faster than mature large caps due to their greater focus on a single business line." Favors manufacturing names which increasing international market share while using China as production base; likes those too with strong local market share, especially in India, Thailand.(RXM)
