I really wouldn't call it shocking. If you have been following news, this was out in the first qtr of 2007. ie almost half a year ago. So like singaporegal said, this provides more liquidity => more trxn => higher turnover => better profit for SGX Know which counter to vest now? (to avoid misunderstanding, Sgpgal did NOT say this sentence) |

This will increase liquidity in the stock market and volumes will also increase. Will be good for SGX - more liquidity, more profits. |

QUICKER kopi $ and SMALLER cut loss $ since the bid size is now thinner. E.g. If one buys 5.00 securities, instead of waiting for 5.05 or 5.10 to take a profit, one can make and take profit at 5.02, 5.03 5.04 etc (depending on the size of the lots you buy of course). Downside is the share MAY go up slightly slower because of the bid size, esp for the 3 SGD securities upwards. Thats my view. |
