How to revive Singapore stock market

The Singapore government is trying to revive the Singapore stock market. In fact, there is no stock market crash in the Singapore, but the number of IPOs has declined, the valuation is low, and the liquidity is low. In my opinion, there is no solution to this problem. The Singapore stock market has became a cash machine for all investors for long time. Almost all stocks are priced based on dividends yeild, and Singapore does not collect dividend tax. Neither Singapore nor Hong Kong collects dividend tax. Hong Kong's dividend tax on mainland residents is a measure taken by mainland China to protect A-shares. The Singapore Straits Times Index has two major sectors and one special feature. The first largest sector is local banks, the second largest sector is real estate investment trusts, and

$Wilmar Intl(F34.SI)$   performance of the past 3 years is disappointing, but I like the company's management. The company first repurchased shares, and then the COE repurchased shares himself. The company's dividends are maintained same level within the company's distributable profits, so long-term investors can keep the cash flow income unchanged when profits decline. I am satisfied with the management's dividends payment decision and it is also within my expectations. As a small retail investor, I have no chance to communicate with the management. Tracking the annual and quarterly reports year after year allows me to feel the character of the management. Is it honest, does it cooperate with the market

$CapLand Ascendas REIT(A17U.SI)$  Temasek just acquired more units of Ascendas, bringing its holdings from 18.99% to 19%. That's not a move a significant shareholder will make if you're unhappy with the long term strategic direction or lack belief in the profitability of the entity, especially not before a quarterly earnings announcement.  Buy the dip.

Investment Reflection: M44U Stock – Navigating the REIT Landscape

On 30 August 2024, I made an additional investment in M44U $Mapletree Log Tr(M44U.SI)$  stock, a decision influenced by the current dynamics in the Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) sector, which has been under considerable pressure over the past two years. This reflection serves to evaluate the investment rationale and the broader macroeconomic factors at play. The Impact of Rising Interest Rates The REIT sector has faced significant headwinds, primarily due to the sharp increase in interest rates between 2022 and 2023, during which the US Federal Funds rate surged by 4.8 percentage points. The Federal Reserve's aggressive rate hikes were aimed at combating inflation, but they also increased borrowing cost

SG Stocks 🇸🇬🇸🇬🇸🇬

For the Singapore stocks, I usually focus on those blue chips only.

$Seatrium Ltd(5E2.SI)$  Seatrium is essentially a garbage, the glory days are long over. This isn't even a growth stock; it's a sinking ship in cyclical businesses.  When you factor in the stock consolidation, the pre-consolidation price was just 8.65 cents. It's simply a poor investment dressed up in a new packaging. Operating costs in Singapore are high, which makes it challenging for labour-intensive businesses to be profitable. Some people prefer to wait, hoping the situation will improve, but it could take years—or worse, the situation could worsen with no results or further complications. Why not consider other opportunities instead of wasting your hard-earned money here, just waiting endlessly?

My portfolio consists of the 3 Singapore banks (30%), Singapore listed REITs (30%), US stocks/options (5%) and the remainder Singapore penny stocks (35%). The Federal Reserve has confirmed an interest rate cut in September 2024. This decision is expected to have several implications for my portfolio. Risks - Market Volatility: While the rate cut aims to stimulate economic activity, it could also lead to short-term market volatility as investors adjust their expectations. - Currency Fluctuations: The rate cut might weaken the US dollar, impacting the value of my US stocks/options. - Sector-Specific Risks: Penny stocks remain high-risk due to their volatility and lower liquidity. Opportunities - Economic Stimulus: Lower interest rates can boost economic activity, benefiting sectors like bank
With talks of interest rates possibly heading south, REITs are starting to look pretty good again. Lower rates mean cheaper borrowing costs for these guys, which can boost their profits and those sweet dividend payouts. Plus, property values tend to rise when rates drop, so that's another potential win. Data center REITs are especially hot right now. The cloud ain't going anywhere, and these guys own the buildings that make it all happen. It's a pretty solid long-term play, especially if rates start to cool down. Of course, not all REITs are created equal. Location, quality of properties, and management skills still matter. Anyone else excited about the potential of REITs, especially data center ones, in this changing interest rate environment$Kepp
