NOBLE GROUP STOCK: MY VIEWS AND EXPERIENCES

After the trading halt was lifted yesterday, Noble Group stock price went up to an intra-day high of $0.159 from the price of $0.15 before trading halt; however the stock price dived to a low of $0.11 before closing the trading day 14.1% lower at $0.128. With such a volatility ever after shareholders approved of Noble Group’s restructuring, I think it is better for investors to stay clear of this stock; just my opinion.

SINGAPORE STOCKS: WHAT’S NEXT?

Since my last update on my opinions of the Singapore stocks markets (you can read the post here ) , the Singapore stocks benchmark STI did not fail to disappoint Singapore investors with its continued lacklustre performance. As of 17 Aug 2018, the STI closed at 3,209.44 which is not far off from the 3,191.82 reached on 2 Jul 18.

I would continue to think that the STI would continue this downward movement to below 3,000 and thereafter to 2,880 on the back of macro developments. In fact, there is even more impetus to push global stocks markets including Singapore into more bear territory with the Turkish currency factor.

ONE VERY IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT THE SINGAPORE STOCKS MARKETS EVERY INVESTOR SHOULD KNOW…. NOW

Dear readers, yesterday the Singapore Stocks Market STI inched up by around 0.60% in line with the other Asian stocks as the China’s central bank took steps to drag the Yuan away from the 14-months lows.

Aside to the aforementioned, one must also note that now is the current reporting seasons by listed companies, a number of which are in the STI constituent stocks. Hence the bullishness of the STI is in part boosted by the performance of those stocks where investors help to push the share prices up due to good earnings performance.

IS THE SINGAPORE STOCKS MARKETS CORRECTIONS COMING? WHAT SHOULD INVESTORS DO NOW…. IMMEDIATELY?

Dear readers, for the previous week, the STI closed at 3,265.73 as of 3 Aug 2018. Though the closing was slightly higher than the closing of 3,324.98 registered on 27 Jul 18 (i.e. the week before the previous week), I would still retain my reading (as per my previous post on the STI here ) that the Singapore stocks markets remain in a position of non-bullishness. The STI, a barometer of the Singapore stocks may be making little gains here and there but the overall narrative remains bearish.

WILL THIS SLEEPY UNDERVALUED FINANCIAL STOCK BE PRIVATISED NEXT?

Dear readers, with the recent lacklustre stocks environment, I believe investors are already fretting what to do with their investments: to sell before the stocks markets head further south and get corrected?

With investors already busy fretting about these decisions, I believe investors have hardly time to think about whether certain stocks would get privatized and to buy them now before they are privatized at a good premium.

SEPTEMBER 2018 SINGAPORE SAVINGS BONDS: SOME GOOD NEWS!

Dear readers, the September 2018 Singapore Savings Bond is now open for application (date of application from 1 Aug 2018 to 28 Aug 2018). The interest rates of the September 2018 Saving Bonds is as summarized in the graph above. Before we go into reviewing the interest rates for this latest issue, it was stated on the Singapore Savings Bond website that the monthly issuance size of the Singapore Savings Bond programme has been increased to $300 million from this month. Before this increase of issuance size, the monthly issuance size had been $250 million, thus it would be good news for investors since the allotment per investor for the Sep 18 Singapore Savings Bonds would likely be higher compared to previous issues.
