🌟🌟🌟In Singapore's competitive banking landscape, investors constantly debate which among the 3 blue chip banks offer the best value. While all 3 banks have delivered strong growth numbers in recent quarters, OCBC is seen as trading at lower valuation. OCBC $ocbc bank(O39.SI)$ dropped 3.8% on Thursday trading on CGSI's downgrade from an Add to a Hold rating. CGSI's downgrade stems from several key factors affecting OCBC 's near term performance. Their research highlights that OCBC' s earnings growth for FY2025 appears to be on "shaky ground". Specifically the bank's net interest income is projected to soften, partially driven by a further compression of its net interest

I opened 1.0 share(s) $Direxion Daily Semiconductors Bull 3x Shares(SOXL)$ ,🌟🌟🌟SOXL is my bullish tactical bet on the semiconductor sector as it is a leveraged ETF that seeks a return of 300% of its benchmark index for a single day. It is not suitable for a long term hold due to its compounding nature. Even though SOXL took a big hit due to US Trade policies, I believe that it will recover as AI is still in its nascent stage. @Tiger_comments @TigerStars @Tiger_SG @CaptainTiger
