0538 GMT - Singapore Exchange's strong operating data for the February-May period may bode well for earnings, RHB Research analyst Shekhar Jaiswal says in a research report. SGX's derivatives business remains strong, with derivatives daily average volume up 8% on year so far in FY 2024, the analyst notes. SGX has said its securities daily average value surged amid robust activity around corporate earnings, with its SDAV up 22% on year in May, the analyst says. RHB boosts its FY 2024-2026 earnings estimates for SGX by 1.4% each year, and raises the stock's target price to S$10.40 from S$10.00 with an unchanged neutral rating. Shares are 0.4% lower at S$9.53. (ronnie.harui@wsj.com)
