A new dawn awaits the Singapore Stock Market, STI Wow, this is going to be making history! Since the late 90s to now, we have finally break the 4000 price point. Question is will it continue to rally higher and break out of the channel?

The SG government is now putting more attention to this stock market and wanted to attract more foreign companies to list here. So, on hindsight, even a bor

The STI has reached its 16 years high.....Closer to home, we also witnessed an all time high for the Singapore stock market. The last time it hits 3573 price level was in 2007, almost 16 years ago............. With the banks taking up close to 50% of the index, it is also evident from the chart that DBS bank has been rallying 2016 till its current price of 37.60........ It could continue the rally and climb towards 40 or even higher........ I am a little concerned with the rate hikes for the remaining months and 2025 onwards..... This

STI: Possible topping in '24-'25 ??Interestingly, the wave relationship fitted nicely from 1999 to 2008 where wave 'a' was equal to wave 'c' to form the primary wave A(red). Wave C @ 0.618 of wave A from wave B projects towards 3877 together with other minor clusters in that range suggesting a probable resistive band. A 3-4 year cycle is also present which suggests year 2024 and 2025 likely.

Buy the dip for STI Now with the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, will the Feds still consider the interest rates hike ? Will this war escalates the already skyhigh inflation rates further ? Or perhaps the Fed will use this news and temporarily halt the rates hike ? STI is still on a bullish move and I see this dip as a buying opportunity. How about you ?

Is it difficult to make money in STI ?Plotting a line graph over this random 10 years period, we can see that if one invest money into the STI, he made a loss of around 26% (if he sells out but breaks even at best if he holds till now). Conversely, in the same time frame of 10 years, if he would diversify into US and invest in the SPX index (as often encouraged by legendary investor, Warren Buffett), he would make a good profits of 171% profits or roughly 17% per year. However, it is not really fair to compare this two index sin

STI heading towards 3300 by year end !Those who did not take advantage of STI index when it went down below 3000 , there is another opportunity. Likely, there would be a retracement to the right shoulder towards 3096 level before I think it starts to rally towards 3300 level. I am bullish on banks, some REITS and a few stocks which I have already covered. Please DYODD.

STI INDEX - AT INFLUX WITH UPWARD BAIS STI Long term index charts are trading at influx point. Caught in the bull and bear fight index is hovering around 3200 mark. See a reverse head and shoulder pattern appearing on the long term charts which may unfold in next few months when the neckline is confirmed breakout. This is a long term chart so view is mid to long term. Since STI index has over 40% weightage of 3 large banks hence any rally should be supported by banks moving higher. Likely trigger may happen when there is pause in FED

STI Sneak Peek Noted the current Double Top formation on the STI (Straits Times Index, Singapore) Oddly, 4 April was the advanced marked date for a top (hence, red time line). Previous marked dates (thing lines) and forward marked dates (thick dotted lines) are there. It is intriguing to see the uncanny accuracy over the years.
