S$52.8B SGX Volume vs Tiny Retail Dividends, SGX Digest — 10 April 2026 |🦖EP1539

SGX is printing decade-high volume and booking record fees while paying you 2.3% — a spread of just 83 basis points over the latest 1.47% T-bill. That is not a sanctuary premium; that is equity risk priced like a savings account, and CDL's freshly minted S$2 billion perpetuals sitting on top of 70% gearing only sharpens the point: the balance sheet stress is real, the yield compensation is not.

In a 5,000-point STI era, the question is not whether volume is surging — it clearly is. It is whether you are getting paid to own the risk. My 3.2% forensic floor exists precisely because T-bills will not stay at 1.47% forever, and every sanctuary claim must survive the storm test, not just today's calm. When a stock's yield clears neither the 4.7% hurdle nor the CPF SA benchmark, capital protection is an illusion dressed as a blue chip.
