      OCBC Earnings Miss: Will DBS or UOB Continue to Outperform?

      Singapore’s second-largest bank, Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation (OCBC), has reported a smaller-than-expected rise in fourth-quarter profit, citing expectations of moderated loan growth in 2025. Alongside this, OCBC unveiled a S$2.5 billion capital return, but it remained the only Singapore bank to miss analysts' forecasts in what was otherwise a strong earnings season for local banks. In contrast, DBS Group Holdings (DBS) and United Overseas Bank (UOB) exceeded expectations, delivering multi-billion capital return packages. Their strong financial performance propelled their share prices to record highs, reinforcing their positions as dominant players in Singapore’s banking sector.

DBS Earnings Performance - DBS reported a 6% increase in core quarterly profit, missing expectations due to higher provisions for bad debt charges. - However, DBS's net profit was still higher than OCBC's, reaching S$973 million. - DBS's recent first-quarter results exceeded expectations, with net profit jumping 15% from the same period a year earlier to S$2.96 billion. - DBS expects net profit to grow this year, exceeding last year's record result. OCBC Earnings Performance - OCBC beat analysts' forecasts by posting an 8% rise in quarterly profit, helped by strong loan growth. - OCBC's net profit reached S$715 million.

      Share prices of the three Singapore banks $DBS Group Holdings(D05.SI)$ $ocbc bank(O39.SI)$ and $UOB(U11.SI)$ are at their all time high for years and investors are still confident with them. Such confidence is fueled by a number of reasons. The interest rate is likely to be “higher for longer”. The U.S. harsh tariffs policies will prove inflationary and the Fed will be forced to hold rates higher for longer. The 3 banks will benefit from higher net interest income. These 3 banks have also projected double digit growth of their non-interest income to boost their total income. The trio of banks also have excess capital in multi-billions to give out higher div

      single digit growth only is a bummer for OCBC, adding to it the relatively weak guidance for the upcoming quarters isn't helping it's cause. DBS on the other hand appears to be the much stronger performing asset. Furthermore, them looking ahead to the future and recognizing the AI trend throughout the world and reacting to it, is a good look for DBS. I think DBS is the best play here, probably followed by UOB and OCBC being a distant third. $ocbc bank(O39.SI)$ $DBS Group Holdings(D05.SI)$ $UOB(U11.SI)$

      As to which bank is worth buying is dependent on whether you are currently holding any one of them. If you are holding 3 of them, then DCA them will not be an issue - unless you bought them ATH. I don’t think AI will be able to replace human workers. In my department, we were told to use copilot to summarise our technical worker. [Spurting]🤦‍♀️. I think our manual summarisation is better off than AI.

      With the high interest rates and high loans, I thought all 3 banks would do well. OCBC is really unexpected. I think DBS has been the all time favourite and has been a safe option. However, the CEO is stepping down. I think it would be good to see the new direction first. AI will create a shift in job trends. Repetitive job will be easily replaced by technology and AI. However, there will be more people employed in areas that require technology related skills such as redesigning related work processes, cybersecurity, AI-assisted processes that enhance the bank-customer relationship and service. @Success88 @Fenger1188 @Universe宇宙

      DBS is the best so far based on ROE. OCBC however, with a dividend yield of 5% looks a little attractive but with risks of a further drop in price and average performance. While all 3 banks are good dividend yield plays, do note that is it because of the high interest rate environment spurred by the Fed. If interest rates cut, then the NIM will drop and so will earnings. As for AI, it will become a great partner for most jobs and it will take over some jobs. However, some roles will be irreplaceable. E.g. can you imagine an AI MP, PM or President? Let me know what you think. [Grin][Facepalm] @daz88888888 @LMSunshine @melson

      $ocbc bank(O39.SI)$  The results don’t seem very promising to me. Feeling a bit down. 😢 I just purchased 6,000 shares yesterday at $17.68... The performance is mostly being dragged down by GEH. Well, let’s see how things unfold when the market opens. On the bright side, the dividend looks decent at $0.41 + $0.16 special dividend (Note : this $0.16 is 10% of the full-year net income, not half year income).  So, for next year, FY2025, the forward dividend could be approximately $0.41 + $0.41 + $0.16 = $0.98, unless their insurance business turn around.   That’s only a 5.5% yield on the shares I bought yesterday. A few tears are welling up—looks like I’ll be facing some paper losses today.

      DBS Hits All-Time High! Is This Just the Beginning for OCBC & UOB?

      $DBS Group Holdings(D05.SI)$ has once again made headlines, reaching a record high on Monday following its strong Q4 earnings report and an upgraded 2025 net interest income (NII) outlook. Singapore’s largest bank now expects 2025 NII to slightly exceed last year’s S$15.04 billion, contradicting its previous projection that NII would remain flat. This bullish guidance, combined with a dividend capital return plan, has fuelled investor optimism and propelled DBS stock to new heights.

      $ocbc bank(O39.SI)$  The results don’t seem very promising to me. Feeling a bit down. 😢 I just purchased 6,000 shares yesterday at $17.68... The performance is mostly being dragged down by GEH. Well, let’s see how things unfold when the market opens. On the bright side, the dividend looks decent at $0.41 + $0.16 special dividend (Note : this $0.16 is 10% of the full-year net income, not half year income).  So, for next year, FY2025, the forward dividend could be approximately $0.41 + $0.41 + $0.16 = $0.98, unless their insurance business turn around.   That’s only a 5.5% yield on the shares I bought yesterday. A few tears are welling up—looks like I’ll be facing some paper losses today.

      $Wilmar Intl(F34.SI)$   Wilmar is my largest stock holding. As a Fortune 500 company and a global leader in agricultural products, Wilmar has a significant presence in China and India, where it plays a key role in feeding large populations.  The relatively slow pace of technological change in the agricultural sector suggests that Wilmar's business model is unlikely to become obsolete in the future. While profit margins, particularly in China, have been under pressure in recent years due to macroeconomic headwinds, there are signs of gradual improvement.
