STI was at 1589.86 then...

1688Market

""If not for the SARS scare, STI should be at a 5th wave new high by now liao. My chart showing some Blue chips have peaked already. How high can STI go before we see 1400-1450 again? hehe. . Penny stocks may be grossly overvalued by many Standard Finance yardsticks but then hor, it's supply vs demand that determine share prices. Since trend for penny stocks is still up, just sit until weekly chart shows wanning strength. Me still sitting on my penny stocks bought in May/June. Didn't buy any since then. Waiting for the Ah Peks and Ah Sohs to take over soon.

Bluesteel,

How high can it go?

For the time being is 1717.89 ....good enough??

My take is once the blues correct, the favourite second-liner third liner pennies will charge ahead. The market is in bull mode and the music has not stopped. Just buy and hold and forget about looking at which counters move today and tomorrow. And don't chase counter. Play those which have not moved up - not logistics not banks.

SINGAPORE, Oct 7 (Reuters) - The Singapore economy should see a rebound in 2004 with gross domestic product growth of between three to five percent, but unemployment will worsen, Deputy Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said on Tuesday.

"Next year should be better. Barring any unexpected shocks, our very preliminary estimate is that in 2004 the economy should grow three to five percent," said Lee in a speech delivered at a labour union conference.

Lee said the unemployment rate was expected to reach or exceed 5.5 percent by end of the year. The jobless rate stood at 4.5 percent at the end of June.

Economy better, unemployment higher. Mathematics interpretation - So economy is inversely proportional to employment. Lay men interpretation - the rich gets richer, poor gets poorer.

This is very healthy. I think there is another round of tech search particularly on disk drives related companies (hugh increase of corporate data residing on digital storage) before the blue chips move to another level. Also the expected excellent Q3 GDP figure are mostly contributed by the turnaround of the manufacturing sector.

I find this line of reason rather spurious. Why did not mention that the LT P/E of Singpore market only around 16X? 22-25X P/e is definitely on the high side - how many SGX companies achieving growth of 22 - 25% this year? Those that do the prices already ran up.

SINGAPORE (AFX-ASIA) - ING Financial Markets said Temasek Holdings, an investment arm of the Singapore government, may eventually sell its 28.80 pct stake in DBS Group after deciding to directly invest into regional banks rather than use DBS as vehicle.

"We have long heard from Temasek and from others in the Singaporean political sphere that one of the holding company's ambitions is to develop a pan-Asian bank, which would help in the development of Singapore as a regional financial centre," it said in a research note.

"However, Temasek's recent acquisition of Indonesia's Bank Danamon and bid for competitor Bank Internasional Indonesia with two separate partners -- neither of which is DBS - calls into question the group's strategy going forward," it said.

"We were told by a senior official recently hired by Temasek that the holding company's plan for a pan-regional banking platform remains intact - but that DBS is no longer part of this plan," it said.

"We are not in general sorry to see DBS free from governmental pressure to expand abroad by acquisition, given that the aggregate result of its previous deals has been a tremendous squandering of shareholders' money," it said.

But with Temasek pursuing its own investments into regional banks, ING said it is wondering whether Temasek's interest in DBS will be divested to another party.

"Temasek may be planning to just let DBS go its own way, with eventual divestment of its remaining shares into the market. There are some signs of this apart from the comments about another regional platform," it said.

"The Ministry of Finance and Temasek have concentrated all their holdings of DBS within a single Temasek-controlled entity within the past month. This could be a prelude to a disposal of DBS altogether, or to a merger with another bank."

Remember the MAS aim to have only 2 local banks in Singapore ??

DJ MARKET TALK/SG: Earnings To Boost Sing Mkt Outlook -DBS

07/10/2003 14:19

[Dow Jones] DBS Vickers says scope for Singapore market to rise more, despite fairly-valued 18x PE, as good prospects for earnings upgrade; expectations of above-4% GDP growth next year, increased capacity utilization for electronics/transport sectors, and bottoming of asset cycles should boost outlook on earnings. "We believe this rally has room to run as investors start to price stocks on 2004 estimates." Expects investor interest to alternate between blue chip cyclicals and small cap growth shares.

DJ Singapore Dollar Up Late; Govt Upbeat On 2004 Econ
07/10/2003 16:27

SINGAPORE (Dow Jones)--The Singapore dollar was stronger Tuesday after the government painted a more cheerful picture of the domestic economy for the rest of this year and gave its most upbeat assessment yet for 2004.

At 0800 GMT, the U.S. currency was trading at S$1.7230, down from S$1.7290 late in Asia Monday. It traded between S$1.7225 and S$1.7255 intraday.

The U.S. dollar started off on a quiet note in Singapore, trading around S$1.7250, mirroring its retreat against major Asian currencies overnight, dealers said.

It traded sideways through much of the morning session, but slipped to its session low of S$1.7225 around midafternoon as some market participants in Singapore took profit on the U.S. dollar.

Deputy Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said in a speech earlier Tuesday the economy was on track to achieve growth of at best 1% this year after a "positive" third-quarter gross domestic product expansion.

Lee also said economic growth is expected to accelerate to between 3% and 5% next year as the global economy recovers.

The upbeat assessment suggested the Monetary Authority of Singapore would be less likely to undertake further monetary easing when it makes its next monetary policy statement Friday.

The MAS will publish its monetary policy statement at 0000 GMT (8:00 a.m.), coinciding with the release of the government's advance estimates of third-quarter GDP.

The perception that easing was now less likely prompted market participants to buy back some Singapore dollars that they had previously sold to guard against such a policy move by MAS.

Overnight, the U.S. currency is expected to trade between S$1.7200 and S$1.7280 against the Singapore dollar.
