(Update from 2 - 8 November and market forecast)



🌀

US

SG

SIA reports 2QFY2022-23 earnings of $557 million; declares dividend of 10 cents

To Investors :

Investment tip takeaway 🦉 this week:

Nov... uptrend intact...


STI had rebounded from 3000 points and pulled back last week from resistance of 3140 points, but still well supported at 3100 level. And the current resistance of STI is still 3140 points and I believe it's possible to break up from it.


With the grand closing of last week Global Financial Leaders' Investment Summit and border-reopening in Hong Kong, some hot money and funds may flow back to Hong Kong, given that the current extremely low market prices of their stocks could attract investors to bottom-fishing and short-sellers are also force to quick unwind their positions in turn may push the share price higher.


I continued to stay cautions with property sector for the month of Nov and Dec under the high rising interest rate environment. And investors may hold your buy on this sector at the moment.
