I think OCBC will close at SGD 22.34 on May 9 (Friday after earnings) I think UOB will close at SGD 35.6 on May 8 (earnings day) Will OCBC or UOB match DBS's wealth management fee surprise? No

Timing the market is impossible and hence we need to understand what we are after (e.g. highest return at the YOLO instant, sufficient return to fund your objective, etc) before marking a decision.  Sell in May and come back later sounds fantastic in hindsight but if we are always affected by emotions of a sell down, exiting the market and await to re board, then the heating buy finger may cause us to miss the 10 best days of a rocket run.

No//@Investordude1301:My take: 1. I think OCBC will close at S$22.50 on 9 May. 2. I think UOB will close at S$37.70 on 8 May. 3. Both UOB and OCBC will match DBS DBS’s wealth management fee surprise.

$Netflix(NFLX)$  netflix may slowly be out of favour when more and more people are having short attention span, growing accustomed to slipping short videos daily. They may have been at their peak when we were stuck at home during the COVID period. 

With fuel prices, elctricity and costs of goods and services raised, the CDC vouchers only serve as a band aid for the short term. The longer the oil flow from the gulf states are chocked, we would have to endure the reality of elevated prices. 

I believe the truth is in-between and not binary. While agents will be able to take on more tasks that were done by humans, human oversight is necessary to ensure things don't go awry. Tasks which not mechanical in natural often have nuances which agents may not respond correctly. Again, market loves to take any opportunity to sell on news before someone comes out with another story to move the market again.

The performance of my portfolio in 2026 Q1 was simply unbelievable good when compared to previous years. As my decades old portfolio consists ST Engineering (58%), Banks (23), REITS (17%), the geopolitical chaos did little harm and I was able to sleep soundly through the night while others had indigestion due to their frequent binge on TACO. For my portfolio, the banks counterbalances the REITs while ST Engineering went on a growth spurt.
