$新电信(Z74.SI)$ Singtel is up +51% in the past year, but this rally is mostly driven by re-rating. The holdco discount has narrowed to ~7%, near historical lows. The issue is: core growth remains modest, and ~50% of valuation comes from Bharti.

$SPX +0.44%, $QQQ +0.6%: Bullish Signals Play Out Despite Negative Sentiment
The market managed a green close today despite heavy negative sentiment. While the $S&P 500(.SPX)$ (+0.44%) move might have been emotionally surprising to the crowd, it was technically valid. As analyzed in our Weekly Compass, the charts specifically signaled this bullish potential. The $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ followed suit, gaining +0.6%. Last week, our Daily Levels were instrumental in anticipating bullish reversals. These modeled “Bullish Above / Bearish Below” indicators act as your primary momentum compass, while our structured Support and Resistance (S/R) levels define the high-probability destinations for the move.

$SPX / $SPY at 200-DMA Resistance, Next Leg Down Approaching
$S&P 500(.SPX)$ bearish 5-down, 3-up — into the 200-DMA + Daily FVG resistance. Textbook corrective rally. Today's peak likely terminated the B-Wave bounce — or is about to. Daily close below 6512 = first confirmation the next higher-degree wave down has begun. CPI Friday pre-market — price may set up into the print before the real move accelerates. This rally gets SOLD. The current $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ bounce is the largest % rally since the 696 peak. That means price is correcting at a higher degree, which means the next wave down will also be higher degree. Whether this labels as a 2 or B wave, what follows is a 3rd or C — neither is friendly. The bigger the bounce, the BIGGER the drop.
1Q26 Buybacks Top S$500M Led by Singtel, OCBC & Keppel
Companies often repurchase shares to support employee compensation plans or to deploy surplus capital more effectively. ACRA maintain that buybacks can enhance key financial metrics such as Earnings per Share (EPS) and Return on Equity (ROE), take advantage of perceived undervaluation, and reduce the overall cost of capital. In 1Q26 close to 50 primary-listed companies in Singapore have collectively repurchased close to S$560 million worth of shares on the open market, from around S$330 million during 1Q25 and S$232 million in 1Q24. The table details the stocks that booked more than S$100,000 in share buybacks in 1Q26, with the average prices including clearing charges. Almost three-fifths of the total consideration was contributed by three companies alone, Singtel, Oversea-Chinese Banking
S-REITs Slide in Q1: iEdge S-REIT Index Falls as Retail Buys Dip
S‑Reits, as measured by the iEdge S‑Reit Index, slipped in the first quarter of 2026, as geopolitical tensions weighed on investor sentiment. The index rose slightly in January, but declined 7% in March amid the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, leading to negative total returns of 6.4% in Q1 2026. Despite weaker price performance, retail investor activity in S‑Reits increased in March. Retail investors were net buyers, with net inflows exceeding S$300 million over the month, reflecting increased participation during the market pullback.

Can BTC Break "Rectangular Pattern" and Stiff Resistance at $75,000 With High-Volume Breakout?
The current Bitcoin rebound to approximately $69,000–$70,000 appears to be a mix of tactical "dip buying" and a structural strategy adjustment, rather than a full-scale return of "risk-on" appetite. While the price has recovered from February lows of $62,800, it remains stuck in a well-defined range. Market Sentiment: Risk Appetite or Strategy Shift? Evidence suggests this is more of a strategy adjustment and consolidation phase: The $70K Wall: Bitcoin has repeatedly failed to break above the $70,000–$72,000 resistance level. Until this range is cleared with high volume, the market is viewing this as range-bound trading rather than a new impulsive bull leg. Institutional Cushioning: Inflows into spot Bitcoin ETFs (roughly $1.9 billion since late February) and consistent buying from firms l

Technically, gold remains in a weak zone, with $4600 a key support/resistance level. Although gold has seen a short-term rebound, from a technical perspective, its overall trend has not fundamentally changed.$XAU/USD(XAUUSD.FOREX)$$Gold - main 2606(GCmain)$ Currently, gold prices are still trading below the 200-period exponential moving average (currently at $4809), indicating that medium- to long-term downward pressure persists.

Market's Reaction On April 6 Reflects A Classic "Relief Rally"
The market's reaction on April 6 reflects a classic "relief rally," where investors buy into the possibility of de-escalation rather than the mathematical reality of the disruption. Whether the market is underestimating the magnitude depends on the gap between diplomatic hopes and the physical state of the Strait of Hormuz. Is the Market Underestimating the Disruption? There is a strong argument that the market is currently "pricing the rumor" of peace while ignoring the "fact" of the infrastructure damage. The "Hell" Factor: While indexes rose, the fundamental situation remains critical. Iran has rejected the immediate U.S. proposal, and the U.S. administration has issued ultimatums to "rain hell" if the Strait isn't reopened. The Physical Reality: Even if a ceasefire is signed tomorrow,
The Steady Giant: Why OCBC is More Than Just A Catch-Up Play to DBS 🌟🌟🌟Investing in $OCBC Bank(O39.SI)$ right now feels like backing a marathon runner who has just found its second wind. While $DBS(D05.SI)$ often hogged the spotlight, OCBC recently silenced the doubters by hitting a massive all time high of SGD 22.83 on 1 April 2026. With its market capitalisation officially crossing the lofty SGD 100 billion mark, OCBC has just joined the elite club of being the second bank to do so, the first being DBS.

The "Stone Age" Fallout: Vanguard VT ETF is My Global Anchor 🌟🌟🌟 The "Peace Rally" of earlier this week has officially been replaced by a "Stone Age" reality check. After Trump's prime address on Wednesday night where he claimed military goals were nearly met but vowed to hit Iran extremely hard for another 2 to 3 weeks to "finish the job", global markets took a beating. The Stone Age Fallout Oil's Vertical Climb Brent Crude futures surged over 6% to USD 107.49, while US WTI jumped more than 10% to top USD 111 per barrel. This price spike was triggered by Trump's renewed threats to hit Iranian infrastructure and his lack of clear plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Stocks in Retreat The optimism that fueled nearly 3% gain in the S&P500 on Tuesday has evapo
The headline miss is real, but the more important signal is demand quality. Tesla reported 358,023 deliveries and 408,386 production in Q1 2026, with 8.8 GWh of energy storage deployments. That leaves roughly 50,000 more vehicles produced than delivered, which points to a meaningful inventory build rather than a clean growth quarter. Why the market is reacting negatively: 1. Deliveries missed expectations. Reported consensus estimates ranged around 368,900 to 372,160, so Tesla came in clearly below the street. 2. Inventory buildup is worsening. Reuters and other outlets highlighted the delivery-production gap as evidence of softer end-demand and possible future discounting or production cuts. 3. Core EV business still matters most. Tesla is pushing robotaxis, Optimus and

Haw Par Tiger Balm 3 Good 3 Red Flags - Forensic Deep Dive |🦖EP1523Haw Par sits on S$791M in cash yet pays a 2.37% yield — that is not conservative management, that is a structural income failure. The ICR of 185.9x eliminates every rate-risk argument, and the 0.87x Price-to-Book confirms the discount is real.
