March has been rough for the Singapore market. Banks, gaming, and consumer stocks have all taken turns getting hit. But what’s interesting is this: while many stocks are falling, a few are quietly climbing. Among SGX blue chips and mainboard names, these three not only avoided the selloff but posted eye-catching gains: $AEM SGD(AWX.SI)$: +151% YTD $ST Engineering(S63.SI)$: hit a record high in mid-March (+31% YTD) $Keppel(BN4.SI)$ +15% YTD What’s behind their resilience? And are they still worth chasing? output0.png 1. $AEM SGD(AWX.SI)$: From “Intel Proxy” to AI Beneficiary, +90% in 90 Days This might be the most

In the Singapore market, many investors follow a familiar, painful path: Buying based on "hot tips," chasing rallies, and doubling down on losing positions. It starts with a stock at $2.50, and by the time it hits $0.80, you’re fully loaded and trapped. Losing money isn't a matter of luck; it’s a matter of "the system." By deconstructing the logic of successful traders, we’ve identified 4 core habits that can fundamentally change your trading trajectory. No magic indicators—just iron discipline. 1️⃣ Never Fight the Trend: Stop the "Bottom-Fishing" Illusion The most persistent delusion for retail investors is trying to "guess the bottom."

This week, the two giants of China’s tech sector, $TENCENT(00700)$ and $BABA-W(09988)$ , both saw their shares tumble following their latest earnings releases. Prior to the reports, Tencent had surged 7% as a leading "OpenClaw" concept stock. However, just two days later, that momentum evaporated as market anxieties over heavy AI spending took hold. Is this post-earnings dip a "buying the valley" opportunity? Let’s dive into the latest analyst insights to find out.

Tonight, the market welcomes a heavyweight earnings report: Micron (MU). The memory sector has seen a phenomenal rally over the past two years. With recent NVIDIA GTC and CES failing to fully satisfy market appetite, the spotlight now shifts entirely to the memory giants! The current market logic centers on the "Physical Limit of AI," which is essentially Memory Bandwidth. No matter how powerful the computing performance is, if the storage (HBM) can't keep up, the processing power will simply "idle." For tonight’s Micron earnings, the market isn't just looking at Revenue and EPS. The real focus is on Gross Margins, HBM Demand, and Future Guidance. Driven by AI, the memory industry has entered a "High-Prosperity" cycle, where rising prices are rapidly translating into profit elasticity. How

As tensions in the Middle East escalate, the once-shining halo of Dubai as a “safe-haven tax paradise” seems to be fading. Wealthy investors who once rushed there for tax advantages are now reportedly calling Singapore lawyers overnight to move money back. A Singapore family-office lawyer revealed that about one-third of his 20 Dubai-based clients have already started procedures this week to shift assets out. The average net worth of these clients exceeds $50 million. If Capital Flows Back, Who Wins in Singapore? If this wave of risk-driven capital migration continues, several Singapore companies could be positioned to capture the inflow. 1️⃣ Banking Giants: AUM Boom As Southeast Asia’s largest bank, $DBS(D05.SI)$ is a top choice for family-offi

The latest earnings season has wrapped up, and from Singapore to Wall Street, bank stocks have seemingly failed to escape the "sell-on-news" correction.
