Singapore stresses under a wealth of worries

aiks.. time to really sit and analyse AUSTRALIA?

maybe coz Sg economy is slowing down? 1st to feel is Retail?

Frasers Centrepoint Trust’s portfolio comprises six suburban malls, all located in Singapore. They are, in descending order of size, Causeway Point, Northpoint, Changi City Point, Bedok Point, YewTee Point and Anchorpoint.

the 6 malls in suburban areas..I went and check out 2 of it.. when I was in Singapore.
Very quiet. or Maybe its Weekday.

Its like Subang Parade at Subang Jaya owned by Hektar Reits...

For retail reit better stick to those in Orchard, MBS etc.. where the tourist is?

diversify from reits. How about transport stocks?

The brokerage’s preferred stocks for the sector are ST Engineering and ComfortDelgro, as they offer yields of 4.6% and 4.5% respectively.

If not mistaken can only apply via ATM in singapore.

No forms will be sent to you unless you have a Singapore address.

No. IPO can only apply via ATM.

STARHUB 2.78....

any takers?

i not yet buy.. still looking...

if only get 15 sen instead of 20 sen div for 2017.. at 2.79 its still above 5% ...

u think 15 sen can be worst case scenario?

Asian Pay TV?

capital com?

KEPPEL DC.. i not adding unless below 1.15.. coz i last added at 1.15.

the good thing about CDP.. is do nothing. the rights will be AUTO SOLD and $$$ will be banked in.

latest requirement as of 5 dec 16 is INCOME TAX number and proof of INCOME TAX....

it was a requirement when my bro went to open ac on 5 DEC 16.
The lady servicing us says.. its latest requirement form 5 DEC 16 onwards.

Just give a copy of TAX RETURN or whatever that can proof
the correct number.

hand itchy.. since i free.. i top up MANULIFE US REIT!!!

way back in 2013 when open the account..
I was considering STD CHART & DBS.

and I choose DBS in favour of the Direct Account.



The other factor is... ESTATE PLANNING.

i hv no idea in case i SAYONARA for Nominee account how it works... but for DIRECT CDP.. its a clear cut thing.

Our will in Malaysia is recognize in Singapore being COMMONWEALTH country. You can email DBS BANK and SGX and they will give u a step by step way on the procedure.

Also, for NOMINEE account.... I have no idea who own the shares or the procedures.

However, being a FOREIGNER to Singapore.. after open the ac i realise.. cannot take part in any RIGHTS ISSUE, bonus etc..
coz we do not have a SINGAPORE MAILING ADDRESS. so, this is the Minus Point.

I am O.K with that so far... as the Rights issue will be automatically sold off.. hence if one is really interested
can just buy off market. But have to make sure timing is right.

eg KEPPLE DC REIT. I think it works out to the same.

OCBC BANK.. who got?

SINGAPORE (Jan 12): Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation could have a rough year ahead of it, and Maybank Kim Eng is maintaining its “sell” rating on the local bank.

should i take profit and sell?
