0403 GMT - Changes in various Singapore government policies are likely to drive earnings upgrades in certain sectors, including consumer and transport, says Maybank Securities' Thilan Wickramasinghe in a note. The consumer sector could see tailwinds from strong local fiscal support and a construction boom, he notes. The city-state is looking into transport policies related to autonomous vehicles and AI, which could improve efficiencies for transport companies and boost their margins, the analyst says. Measures led by Singapore's central bank to improve the stock market's trading liquidity and valuations have helped to improve inflows into small and mid caps, Wickramasinghe adds. Some Singapore-based companies likely to benefit include Sheng Siong Group, Singapore Exchange and Nasdaq-listed Grab. (megan.cheah@wsj.com)
