If I remember correctly, Starhub in fact won the contract for the national high-speed broadband network which is operational in 2013. So, the game is not over yet.

DJ Singapore Govt Reviewing TV Content Exclusivity Issue -Report
SINGAPORE (Dow Jones)--The Singapore government is reviewing the issue of TV content exclusivity in the island state, the Business Times reported Tuesday.
Local authorities said in a recent presentation to "media and telco industry professionals" that the issue is "already under study," the paper said, citing material used at that presentation.
The issue has recently been a subject of controversy after Singapore Telecommunications Ltd. (Z74.SG) earlier this month got the rights to broadcast the immensely popular English Premier League soccer matches for three years starting August 2010.
A person familiar with the situation told Dow Jones Newswires earlier this month that SingTel paid more than S$280 million for the exclusive rights and that the firm is unlikely to recover the costs through the pay TV operations.
Analysts have said the government may intervene in the pay TV market, given concerns that SingTel may simply be able to outspend rival StarHub Ltd. (CC3.SG) for key content as it seeks to expand its market share.
The report also said the authorities are studying the requirement of a common set-top box that can be shared by multiple service providers once the country's national high-speed broadband network is operational in 2013 to create a more competitive environment in the local media and internet markets.

Throwing at the wrong timing islike throwing away good money. Punting in and out is certainly good for your brokers and broking firms. Understanding the stock and its fundamentals, and armed with holding power is one sure way of raking in good profit. ESTA is one such share you can count on.
keepnosecrets ( Date: 13-Oct-2009 13:30) Posted:
It is better to throw first when you have the guts that the counter is lifeless. Lose a bit is better because with the capital almost intact, you can go for some quick gains to cover the small losses. In fact, I found this way better through experience. Holding on to "wooden head" shares tend to cause you to lose 3 things, your patience, your money in terms of interests, and your opportunity for making use of the cash to make money. Am sure iPunter will tell you more things you might lose holding to these non-action shares. |

You recognise that there is a technological gap for singtel to catch up with Starhub? Do not forget that Starhub will have a control on the super highway backbone for fast access.
Jackpot2010 ( Date: 12-Oct-2009 14:33) Posted:
Recommendation by Kim Eng Research (12 Oct): BUY Singtel TP $3.51 buy; SELL Starhub TP$1.80
StarHub could be in for more pain
In the next 12-24 months, we think SingTel is very likely to use its deeper
financial pockets to pursue the acquisition of other sports content such as
World Cup as well as entertainment and news channels such as CNN,
CNBC, Discovery, HBO and Cinemax. Success in this arena as well as
the closing of the technological gap between SingTel and StarHub
(SingTel has promised to deliver mio TV access to the whole country by
31 July 2010) could potentially mean more pain in store for StarHub.
Recommendations maintained
On balance, we maintain our present recommendations –
BUY for SingTel with a target price of $3.51 and SELL for StarHub with a
target price of $1.80. |

EZRA is on the uptrend again ! For those who have faith in this stock - keep it up !
risktaker ( Date: 01-Oct-2009 19:52) Posted:
if you brought this counter at $2.00 before .... why you didnt average up ? when it is $0.70+ cents ? This counter is good with economy picking up.
keepnosecrets ( Date: 01-Oct-2009 15:55) Posted:
This counter lousy for me. Bought at 2.00 and sold at 2.00 lost some commission of about 60 bucks. Luckily sense the counter won't move so contraed before it broke down. Won't touch on this again yet |

There will be capitalised gain when Singpost sells its business centre at UBI. Just have to wait.

Don't forget this stock can also plunge just like any other.
SingPost was $0.60 just a few months ago. |

Straits Asia Indonesian mine coal loader collapses : From The Edge Singapore
Singapore-listed coal miner, Straits Asia Resources (STRL.SI), said
today the new coal loading facility at its Jembayan mine in Indonesia’s
East Kalimantan province has collapsed due to heavy rain.
The company did not say whether there were any casualties.
Straits Asia said it is investigating the extent of damage and the
potential impact on the future operation of the newly commissioned
facility. It said the facility will not be able to load its coal output
for “some time”.
UBS said in a research note that it might lower its valuation on the company if the disruption lasts longer than six months.
Straits Asia blamed the collapse on several days of rain in the
area, which caused erosion and the failure of the foundation structure
of the facility.
The company said the Jembayan mine site operates two load out trains
at the mine, and the old facility, with a nominal annual capacity of
5.5 million tonnes, “does not appear to be affected by this event.”
“All other mining activities at Jembayan continue to function
normally and all reasonable steps are being undertaken to mitigate the
impact of this event,” the company said in a statement to the stock
exchange.
Straits Asia, which exports most of its output to power plants in
Japan, Korea, Taiwan and India, plans to boost its production from its
two coal mines in East Kalimantan province to 9.5 million tonnes in
2009, from 8.6 million tonnes last year.
UBS analyst Andreas Bokkenheuser said in a note that the company should be able to achieve 8 million tonnes of output this year.
“If the loader won’t be operational for another six months, our
scenario analysis suggest a 10% downside from our current $2.50
valuation to $2.25,” Bokkenheuser said.
The announcement came after the stock market closed. Straits Asia’s
shares had finished 1.38% higher to end at $2.21, outperforming the
broader market (.FTSTI) which finished 0.62% higher.

Dear Risktaker,
You must be joking when you said dumping Midas. Be consistent, coherrent and rational in your comment. Midas is not for punters but for serious investors.

My two-cent worth of comments :
1. Starhub did not make from the Sports channels previously
2. Singtel needs to spend $$$$ to upgrade its system and connectivity/capture areas
3. Not many Starhub subscribers will switch over and will just retain it for other entertainment/news/documentary channels
4. The ROI will take years for Singtel
5. Getting the rights is just to save face for Singtel and Starhub in this instance is prudent.
6. M1 and Starhub may just join force to break the monopoly - our IDA may also do something about this as there are so many unhappy subscribers.
frosin ( Date: 08-Oct-2009 15:33) Posted:
unfortunately no one trades on words. Frankly I do not care if Singtel breaks $3 or not. too me, I do both TA and FA. I can tell you the resistance support is at $2.98, not $3.06. True there is a lot of trades before we hit the resistance level but Singtel just tend to have such high volumes. MACD might indicate a reverse of the swing. Well, like you said market is based more on news than FA or TA. There is no likelihood of any good news till results. Hence, good luck with guessing where the turn around point for the TA swing is. Fundamentally, the stock no longer worth $3.06 till Bharti goes up.
lowchia ( Date: 08-Oct-2009 15:23) Posted:
I play TA and i can tell u 3.06 is a strong support. (I vested at 3.06). MACD signal a buy signal.
Even if it managed to break, i doubt it can go below $3.
Mark my words.
Nowadays if u play FA then u can quit stock liao.....if stocks like capitaland and Genting can soar based on good news then u will noes market buy stock dun based on FA.

Midas has recovered the loss since it hit 78c last week. Also be wary about the fake buy queue while letting profit run. When it turns it could come down fast too as the fake are withdrawn |

Risktaker is risking with stocks but with his comments as well. Midas is no risk and is as stable as a rock. It depends on how patient you are in realising your profit in medium term. But occasionally, Midas can spring surprises.

Singtel is overpaying for the Sports rights (it will run at a loss). Starhub will benefit instead.
frosin ( Date: 08-Oct-2009 14:37) Posted:
no worries its a great stock. one of the titan of singapore. not going to go down even if india telco collapse. at the very long term, sure to make money. short term wise, it is clearly overvalued. even at $3.06, it is not worth buying. If you have it, hold it for a while.
