[NATIONAL DAY 2018 SPECIAL] WILL THIS SLEEPY UNDERVALUED FINANCIAL STOCK BE PRIVATISED NEXT? (PART 2)

-
Dear readers, A HAPPY NATIONAL DAY 2018!

as shared in Part 1 of the post with the same title, I will be sharing with All of you the name of the stock which could just be about to get privatized. And who knows at a privatization price which could be quite decent above the current trading price of this little sleepy stock.
Never mind that this stock is currently undervalued at Price-to-Book ratio of 0.675; since there are so many stocks on SGX which are similarly undervalued but their share prices have not performed in a compelling manner.

But the most compelling reason to me is how the controlling shareholders have been increasing their stake in this stock such that as at Nov 2017 their stake in the company was 29.1% but as at Jun 2018, their stake in the company has grown to 29.995%, just a little shy of the 30% mark which would trigger a mandatory general offer.

So what is the name of this stock?

Well, the name of this stock is none other than …….

SING INVESTMENTS & FINANCE

I append an article here on the major stakeholder’s stake in the company a at Nov 2017

And here is the link  to an SGX filing which shows that the stake has now grown to 29.995%.

A possible privatization on the horizon?

Especially when this stock is undervalued?

And if a privatization comes, a good exit offer?

WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT DBS AND STRAITS TIMES INDEX RIGHT NOW?

Image
Dear readers, it is another week for the Singapore stocks markets. So, what are the developments for Singapore stocks this week? Let us find out from this post today. First, of all, the Straits Times Index (STI) closed the week ended 3 May 24, at 3,292.93. This is a resistance level and I believe the STI will be testing this resistance level going ahead. At the current level, the STI is in a neutral region.  But what is interesting is that the STI ETF (ES3.SI) is trading in an Overbought region. Based on historical trends, most of the times the STI ETF is Overbought, the STI ETF and STI is likely to correct next, hence investors vested in the STI may want to take note of this. On the broader front, the STI stocks are trading in neutral RSI region, except for DBS stock which is trading in an Overbought region. This is inevitable as DBS stock is currently trading at one of the highest levels in recent years. That's it for my insights for Singapore stocks markets for the week, catch

HOW TO INVEST BETTER WITH DECREASE IN INTEREST RATES ?

-
Image
Investing in a falling interest rate environment can present unique opportunities and challenges for investors.  As interest rates decline, the prices of fixed-income securities such as bonds typically increase, leading to capital gains for investors holding these securities. However, falling interest rates can also lower the yield on fixed-income investments, reducing the income generated by these investments. Additionally, declining interest rates can make it more challenging for investors to generate a reasonable return on their cash and fixed-income investments. In this article, we will explore several investment strategies that can be effective in a falling interest rate environment. Consider Long-term Treasury Bonds: Long-term Treasury bonds are highly sensitive to changes in interest rates, meaning that their prices tend to rise when interest rates fall. Investing in long-term Treasury bonds can therefore provide investors with capital gains as interest rates decline. Howev

Image
Millennials, also known as Generation Y, are individuals born between the years 1981 and 1996. This group of individuals has been characterized by their unique attitudes and perspectives towards work and career.  Millennials have been known to value work-life balance, meaningful work, and personal development more than previous generations. This has led to a shift in the traditional workplace dynamics and a reevaluation of what it means to have a successful career.  One of the defining characteristics of Millennials is their desire for work-life balance. Unlike previous generations who were willing to work long hours and prioritize their careers above all else, Millennials value their personal time and well-being. They are more likely to prioritize activities such as travel, hobbies, and spending time with family and friends, even if it means sacrificing career advancement. This focus on work-life balance has led to Millennials seeking out jobs that offer flexibility, remote work

Dear readers, today is Labour Day and I wish all employees a Happy Labour Day 2024! As we celebrate Labour Day today, I thought it is timely to know how Labour Day comes into about. Let me share these with you as follows. Labour Day is a public holiday in many countries around the world that is dedicated to honoring the contributions of workers and the labour movement. The origins of Labour Day can be traced back to the late 19th century when the labour movement in the United States began to advocate for better working conditions, an eight-hour work day, and higher wages for workers. The first Labour Day parade and celebration took place on September 5, 1882, in New York City, organized by the Central Labor Union. The event was meant to bring together workers from different trades and industries to demonstrate their solidarity and demand better working conditions. In 1894, Labour Day was officially recognized as a federal holiday in the United States by President Grover Cleveland,

HOW TO USE POSITIVE THINKING TO ATTRACT WEALTH?

-
Image
Positive thinking is a powerful tool that can be used to attract wealth and abundance into one's life. The Law of Attraction, a universal principle that states that like attracts like, suggests that by focusing on positive thoughts and feelings, individuals can attract positive outcomes and experiences, including financial prosperity. One of the key ways to use positive thinking to attract wealth is to start by changing one's beliefs about money. Many people hold negative beliefs and attitudes about money, often stemming from childhood experiences or societal conditioning. These beliefs can create blocks to abundance and prevent individuals from attracting wealth into their lives. By consciously choosing to shift these beliefs to more positive and empowering ones, individuals can open themselves up to receiving wealth and abundance. One effective way to shift beliefs about money is through the practice of affirmations. Affirmations are positive statements that are repeated
