Lifetime Membership What the hell. Never in my wildest dream did I expect Mapletree Logistics Trust share price to trade below its Net Asset Value (NAV). This STI constituent, supposedly a blue chip in SGX, has been a major disappointment for many SGX investors since the Fed started to hike interest rates in 2022. When can this counter ever see daylight? Dampened by heightened geopolitical tensions and longer-than-expected high interest rate environment, the whole of S-REIT industry has been in wretched form for the last two years. Mapletree Logistics Trust is no exception. Year-to-date, Maple ..read more

Lifetime Membership The last time that I covered ThaiBev share price was in December 2019. That was a long time ago and an SG Wealth Builder Lifetime Member has requested for a coverage on this counter, which has recently plunged into a devastating 11-year low. What on earth has happened to this evergreen Straits Times Index (STI) component? For background, ThaiBev is Thailand’s largest and leading beverage producer and distributor. Since 2006, ThaiBev has been listed in SGX mainboard and was included in STI in 2016, having replaced IHH Healthcare. In 2013, ThaiBev made waves when the Group, u ..read more

Lifetime Membership Warren Buffet famously quoted: price is what you pay, value is what you get. In this context, investors must be wondering if the current Li Ning share price trading level represents value. From a peak of HK$105 in September 2021, Li Ning share price crashed by a whopping 83% to reach HK$17.50 recently. The devastating meltdown of Li Ning share price certainly caused plenty of heart pains to its investors. Should they keep the faith or run for their lives? This must be a dilemma faced by many Li Ning investors given that rumors emerged in March 2024 that the founder of the G ..read more

Lifetime Membership For more than a decade, I have been asking myself the reason for building this blog. Is it really due to personal interest? Frankly, I doubt so as interest alone would not lead me to churn out investment articles weeks after weeks, months after months, years after years. Is it really about making money out of membership subscriptions? Honestly speaking, the amount of money I made from this blog is barely enough to pay for the blog hosting fees. In this article, I will share the story of The Cathedral of God to illustrate the vision, mission and value of SG Wealth Builder. T ..read more

Lifetime Membership It has been nearly a year since I wrote about Mapletree Logistics Trust share price performance and I think its time for an update. Year-to-date, Mapletree Logistics Trust share price continued to spiral out of control, falling by a devastating 22%. At the current trading price, the counter has plunged to a 5-year low. Question now is whether the counter has truly bottomed and represents an attractive value for investors to enter. For background, Mapletree Logistics Trust is an S-REIT that invests in a diversified portfolio of logistics real estate in Asia Pacific with the ..read more

Lifetime Membership What a swashbuckling form! OCBC share price turned bullish following the bank’s announcement of voluntary unconditional offer for Great Eastern Holdings on 10 May 2024. Year-to-date, OCBC share price increased by about 11%. Question now is whether there is genuine intent of OCBC to acquire Great Eastern or just a cheap plot to boost OCBC share price, which had been lagging behind DBS shares in recent years? Since 2021, I had been sharing my thoughts on the possibility of OCBC acquiring Great Eastern and the potential impact on OCBC share price. The articles can be accessed ..read more

Lifetime Membership AEM share price continues to break investors’ heart. Since my last blog post on AEM Holdings on 3 March 2024, the counter had somewhat stabilized at the levels of $2.30 to $2.50. However, the release of first quarter business update on 8 May 2024 caused a rupture in the form of AEM share price yet again. Year-to-date, AEM share price plummeted by a whopping 47%, making it one of the biggest falling stars in SGX mainboard. The crisis of confidence among investors is understandable as the latest financial result was not only bad, but also worrying for investors. Whilst I can ..read more

Lifetime Membership For Singtel share price, it never rains but pours. The shares of Singapore’s largest telco went through some bouts of volatility lately. On 13th March, short selling volume on Singtel rocketed to a staggering 20 million and then nearly 30 million on 14th March. Apparently, short-sellers went in for the kill following the adverse news of Singtel losing its Australia court case on the financing of the acquisition of Optus. Nonetheless, Man proposes, God disposes. Fake news on the supposedly divestment of Optus by Singtel might have caused short-sellers to suffer a horrendous ..read more

The darker the night, the nearer the dawn. On 29 February 2024, AEM share price collapsed by nearly 20% following the release of the FY2023 financial result. The apocalyptic drop of AEM share price must have scared the living hell out of AEM investors. Question now is: will AEM share price see light at end of tunnel in 2024? As predicted in my previous article, all hell broke loose after the management announced the halting of final dividend for FY2023. Instead of cash dividend, bonus shares will be issued to shareholders. This is, of course, subjected to shareholders’ approval at the AGM. Whi ..read more

Lifetime Membership On 22 February 2024, Dow Jones hit a fresh record of 39,069 points on the back of a stellar earning report by Nvidia. The stupendous form of US stock market has given investors plenty to cheer about amid the uncertain global economic condition. On the other hand, Singapore’s Straits Times Index (STI) has been in awful form for the past one year, falling from 3,282 points on 24 February 2023 to 3,184 points on 23 February 2024.  The insipid form of SGX stocks must have left many Singapore investors feeling exasperated. What is the Singapore stock market current and near ..read more
