China economy recovering

BEIJING - CHINA'S economy is showing signs of recovery even though the impacts of the global crisis are still being felt, a senior official said on Friday.

'Despite the downward pressure on the Chinese economy since the fourth quarter of last year, we have nonetheless seen signs of recovery,' Liu Tienan, vice-chairman of the country's top economic planning body, told reporters.

He said China's official economic growth target of eight percent for 2009 remained within reach.

However, Mr Liu said his National Reform and Development Commission would await full first-quarter data before judging growth trends. -- AFP

cannot compare these two la. totally different business. OCBC is low beta share whereas SGX is very high beta share. If you plot charts comparing more than 5 year of OCBC, STI and SGX, you can see the effect of SGX price.

CapitaLand / CapitaLand: Too early to bottom fish

1. Payment by atm or BD or MO, is between which 26th Feb and 12th March? -

ATM, before 12 march 9pm. easier.

BD/MO, wait for CDP to send you big envelop with ARE form.

means i can pay for my rights today if i want to already?

No point pay so early, wait and see the show on this 10 days of rights trading period. I have not check the ATM so i do not know if this has been activated yet.

2. So, example, after 23 March, i have 4,500 CL shares. How do i sell 4,500 shares?
Sell as per normal , by on-line broker or through your broker

or i can only sell 4,000 shares, and stuck with 500?

Can always sell odd lot of 500, pay more commission to broker. Can keep 500 for grand-children la, it might become 2000 shares 30 year later when there are Bonus, Rights, etc for next 30 years.

However, since you have odd lot (1500) of Rights, one sensible way is for you to apply for 500 EXCESS rights. It cost you 650 dollars plus i think a 2 dollar ATM transaction fee( this differ from bank to bank). Since you are entitled shareholder of 3000 shares, your chance of getting 500-odd lot is high (but no guaranteed, OK!! Their director will decide according to the documents, read yourself).

lets say i have 3 lots (3000 shares). so, i have 1500 rights shares, right? (YES) you can just check to confirm your CDP statement, it is there as 1500 Capitaland_R. You can apply for free on-line access to CDP and get this convenience way of checking CDP statement.
if i don;t sell them, i have to pay between which date and 12th march? (YES)
how do i pay? (easier to USE ATM, or more complicated is use CDP envelop fill up ARE form and Money order or Banker Draft and mail to CDP to reach before 12 March some 4+pm)-will it appear under "view contracts for payment" in EPS for my internet banking? (No)

or do i go down to CDP or my borker's office to pay? (No)

also, after 23 March, it will mean i have 4500 CL shares, right? (Yes)

let's sat i want to top up to 10,000 now. that means i need to buy additional 5,500 nil-pay right shares now. ( not necessary, you can buy 5000 or 6000 mother share from market as usual , it is easier if you still cannot figure out the arithmatic, but you can also apply for EXCESS RIGHTS, however this is not certain you can get allocated, by the way when you apply excess rights you must pay in full. they will refund you on those that are not successful.)

so, IF the price of a nil-pay right is now $0.70, i need to pay $0.70 x 5,500 = $3,850 + fees, right? ( if you buy nil-paid rights, YES, but you must remember you need to also exercise these 5500 rights before 12 march by paying the rights issue price of 1.3 or else this become worthless)

but, by 12th March, i will then only need to pay my original rights 1,500 x $1.30 = $1,950 , right? ( No , you must pay (1500+5500)x1.3=9100 to exercise your 7000 rights with 1.3 each)

so my total outlay to get from my present 3000 (+ 1500 rights) to 10,000 would be 1,950+3850=5800, right? (No, should be 1950 + 3850+fee+7150=12950+fee

aircraft, that depends on when you BUY. If you buy 2 lots yesterday (when share is traded cum-rights) or already owned 2 lots earlier, then YES you are entitled the 1 lot of rights. You need to pay $1300 on of before March 12 and you will get the 1000 new shares on or around 20 March.

However, if you buy your 2 lots TODAY ( trading is Ex-Rights), then you are not entitled the Rights.

DJ MARKET TALK: S'pore O&M Solid; SembMarine Top Pick-BNP Paribas # 18 February 2009 12:35 ShareThis[?] Print This Page 0433 GMT [Dow Jones] Singapore offshore & marine plays mixed as investors await further cues on outlook, have had respite recently from order cancellations but retreating oil price negative for sentiment; Keppel Corp. (BN4.SG) +1.5% at S$4.12, SembMarine (S51.SG) down 2.0% at S$1.45. BNP Paribas says rigbuilders' fundamentals intact especially for deepwater oil exploration as deepwater drilling infrastructure likely insufficient, tightness in supply for rigs should remain for next 5 years. Says while negative newsflow due to clients facing financial difficulties may weigh on rigbuilders' shares, earnings impact should not be significant. "Our view is that risks are already priced in, and we view any negative reactions to weakness in the E&P sector as opportunities for accumulation." Rates both Keppel and SembMarine Buy with target prices of S$5.00 and S$2.23 respectively, but says SembMarine top pick for purer offshore exposure, strong balance sheet. (KIG)

FROM OCBC 11 FEB REPORT:

By Kelly Chia
Wed, 11 Feb 2009, 09:33:47 SGT Summary: Recent reports that oil majors are continuing their venture into deepwater exploration should bode well for Singapore rig manufacturers, KepCorp and Sembcorp Marine (SMM). Oil majors like Chevron and BP have reportedly been locked into high rig-charter rates during the boom days when oil was at US$140/barrle and contract terminations would mean high cancellation costs of up to US$219m each. Greater clarity on business directions of the oil companies have also helped to abate a previous flurry of rig cancellation/postponement news flow. With the sustained push into deepwater, demand for newer generation of deepwater capable offshore support vessels will also likely remain elevated. In this O&M space, we prefer SMM (FV: S$2.00) and Ezra (FV: S$1.09) in view of undemanding valuations and the purer play on the O&M sector. While KepCorp will benefit from this development, we think its property sector will continue to be a drag on its share price in the medium term. As such, we keep our HOLD rating on KepCorp (FV: S$4.40). (Kelly Chia)

Others / STI ETF IPO

Go to Message

x 0

As the existing Shares of streetTRACKS STI were listed and traded on SGX-ST since 17 April 2002, it took a while to gain trading volumn and thus liquidity.

This new DBSAM STI ETF can be traded with 100 share per lot, which is about $170 per lot at current index of approx 1700, very affordable for large number of investors and it is easy to do cost averaging, balancing of portfolio.

However, the concern is its liquidity, if it is low, the bid/ask spread will be too high.

I read from DBS document and found this on page 21 regarding CPF scheme.

VII CPF INVESTMENT SCHEME
15. The Fund is currently not included under the CPF Investment Scheme.

If this is approved by CPF it would have been much better.
