$Keppel(BN4.SG)

Context: Keppel fell 2.8% today to S$11.47. The pullback looks somewhat overdone to me, especially without a specific price catalyst behind the move. Broader markets have also been cautious amid higher oil prices and yields.

My trade: Still holding my position. If Keppel falls further, I’ll start thinking about adding to my position given my longer-term bullish view on the stock.

Takeaway: I see this as more of a pullback than a change in the underlying story. If weakness continues, I’d be looking to use it as an opportunity to add.

$Keppel(BN4.SG)

Context: From a technical basis, Keppel continues to look good, with the 14-day RSI at 54. I want to see whether RSI can sustain its bounce back above 50, signalling that buying pressure is building.

My trade: Holding my position and watching whether sustained momentum can push the stock towards another leg higher.

Takeaway: Technicals remain constructive, further bolstered by capital flows into Singapore equities. I’m watching for sustained buying pressure to take Keppel higher.

$Keppel Reit(K71U.SG)

Context: The prospect of Fed hikes is putting pressure on REITs, with higher rates keeping financing costs elevated and limiting near-term upside.

My trade: I’m holding my Keppel REIT position for now, given its quality office portfolio and resilient operating performance.

Takeaway: I’m comfortable holding through the rate uncertainty while waiting for the macro backdrop to improve.

$SIA Engineering(S59.SG)

Context: SIA Engineering closed at S$3.10, with higher input costs, including rising shipping costs for materials, weighing on margins. The stock is also below the S$3.20 200-day EMA, so I’m watching for a breakout.

My trade: I’ll look to exit around S$3.30 on a rebound and redeploy the funds into blue chips.

Takeaway: I’m not optimistic on the near-term upside, so I’d rather redeploy into stronger blue-chip opportunities.

$Keppel(BN4.SG)

Context: Keppel surged to close at S$11.60 as Singapore equities continued to attract inflows due to the Fed’s hawkish signals. The strength in Singapore’s blue-chip names, particularly banks, helped lift the broader market and benefited stocks like Keppel.

My trade: Holding my position and letting the broader market momentum play out.

Takeaway: Blue-chip quality continues to provide some resilience when market sentiment shifts.

$Keppel(BN4.SG)

Context: Keppel at S$11.35 remains technically constructive, with the 50MA at S$11.12 above the 200MA at S$10.90, keeping the golden cross intact.

My trade: Holding my position and watching whether the 20MA at S$11.26 continues to provide support.

Takeaway: I expect the broader trend to remain upward, with the technical setup supporting my view on Keppel.

$SIA Engineering(S59.SG)

Context: S$3.28 remains the key technical resistance, but the recent test was quickly rejected. The stock remains range-bound, and without a meaningful catalyst, a sustained breakout looks difficult.

My trade: I’ll take a wait-and-see approach for now, but I’m looking to exit and reposition as soon as the price reaches a level I’m comfortable with.

Takeaway: The lack of momentum doesn’t suit my investment style, especially when you see other SGX stocks seeing sharp increases across 2026.

$Keppel Reit(K71U.SG)

Context: Keppel REIT’s divestment of KR Ginza II looks encouraging, with the S$90.9m sale price 28.4% above its 2022 purchase price and 9.7% above valuation.

My trade: At S$0.875, I’m still comfortable holding as NPI and distributable income continue to grow, despite lower DPU from the enlarged unit base.

Takeaway: Continued capital recycling should help strengthen the portfolio and unlock value.

$SIA Engineering(S59.SG)Context: SIA Engineering has picked up momentum over the past two days, which is encouraging after its recent underperformance. The key level now is S$3.28, around its 200-day moving average.

My trade: I’ll look to exit on a decisive breakout above S$3.28, using the recovery as an opportunity to reposition the capital elsewhere.

Takeaway: A stronger technical setup gives me a better exit point.

$Keppel(BN4.SG)

Context: Keppel rose 3% today to S$11.51, with the stock continuing to hold up well after the recent pullback. I still like the combination of its strong fundamentals, asset-light transformation and growing FUM.

My trade: Added to my position just before the ex-dividend date, and the stock is now around 20% above my entry.

Takeaway: The pullback before the dividend proved a timely opportunity to add.

Gold and silver are becoming increasingly interesting as strategic commodities. Central banks continue to accumulate gold as they diversify their reserves, while both metals can also provide some diversification given their relatively low correlation with the S&P 500.

I think the near-term outlook could be more challenging with rates staying higher for longer, but I’m still bullish on the longer-term story. Silver especially has strong structural demand from solar, electronics and the broader push towards electrification.

That’s also where I see the appeal of DLCs. With metals capable of making big moves in either direction, the Long and Short DLCs provide a way to take a more tactical view on gold or silver. The daily reset means they’re better suited for short-term trades rather than simply holding them for the long run.

$SIA Engineering(S59.SG)SIA Engineering rose 1.6% today, but I’m still cautious given the technical picture. The stock remains below its 20-day (S$3.13), 50-day (S$3.21), 100-day (S$3.18) and 200-day (S$3.29) moving averages. With my entry at S$3.23, I’m inclined to wait for a recovery towards that level before exiting. Technically, the setup remains bearish, with the stock yet to reclaim its 200-day moving average, which continues to act as key resistance.

$SIA Engineering(S59.SG)SIA Engineering has continued to underperform, with my position now down 4.17%. While the longer-term MRO outlook remains constructive, I think the upside may be limited after the recent recovery in earnings and flight activity. For now, I’m inclined to wait for the position to break even before exiting, and potentially redeploying the capital into opportunities with stronger growth momentum.

1A 2A 3A — With the job market remaining weak and core CPI showing signs of easing, I expect the Fed to hold in September. The Fed is forward-looking, and I think it will see little need to hike at the risk of weakening growth, particularly with medium-term inflation expectations remaining well anchored. That said, Warsh will be extra mindful of the Fed’s post-pandemic experience under Powell, when policymakers fell behind the inflation curve.

$Keppel(BN4.SG)Picked up Keppel at a more attractive level just before the ex-dividend date, and I’m happy to lock in the S$0.15 dividend. The pullback offered a good opportunity to add to a company with solid fundamentals, growing FUM and continued asset monetisation. As one of the SG blue chips, this will likely continue benefitting from the tailwind of the MAS’ EQDP.

$Singtel(Z74.SG)Just entered into a Singtel position. Singtel remains an attractive defensive play, supported by strong recurring cash flows, leading positions across its key markets and a growing regional digital infrastructure business. Its focus on capital recycling and improving returns should strengthen the balance sheet and unlock value. With resilient dividends and potential upside from data centres and regional associates, I see solid long-term fundamentals

$Keppel(BN4.SG)Keppel’s pullback to S$11.16 today is starting to look increasingly attractive. The share price is hovering around its 50-day (S$11.11) and 100-day (S$11.26) moving averages, with the 200-day support at S$10.95 not far below. With the stock also approaching its 11 August ex-dividend date, I’m watching closely and will likely add position if it approaches $11

$Keppel Reit(K71U.SG) Stronger sentiment across the S-REIT sector lifted Keppel Reit today in spite of the ex-div today. Strong H1 results point to an improving outlook as rising Singapore office rents, easing borrowing costs and contributions from recent acquisitions support earnings growth. Planned asset divestments should reduce leverage and create room for unit buybacks. With valuations still below book value, the risk-reward profile appears increasingly attractive. Will continue to hold!

$Keppel(BN4.SG)Keppel slipped 2.3% today, but I see the pullback as healthy after its recent run. If the share price revisits the S$11 level, I’d seriously consider adding to my position given the company’s solid fundamentals and ongoing asset-light transformation. With the stock set to go ex-dividend on 11 August, this could prove to be a timely opportunity for long-term investors!

$Keppel(BN4.SG)Keppel’s 4% drop today looks unwarranted to me. A few days ago, I highlighted the stock’s strong fundamentals, and I still stand by that view. Despite today’s decline wiping out the gains from the sharp run-up that followed, the stock remains around the same range where I was bullish. With New Keppel’s profit up 25%, FUM above S$100 billion and continued asset monetisation, I see it as a lucrative long-term hold.

$Keppel(BN4.SG)Keppel’s jump today shows the appeal of holding a blue-chip with strong fundamentals and defensive qualities, especially when market sentiment turns more cautious with the chips sell-off. Today’s update that it has already surpassed its S$100 billion FUM target, driven by strong global capital commitments, further strengthens the asset-light transformation story. I’m happy to hold as growing recurring income and FUM provide a solid foundation for future growth.

$SIA Engineering(S59.SG)SIA Engineering’s FY25/26 results give me more confidence in the recovery story, with revenue and profitability improving strongly on higher flight activity and pricing. Capacity expansion at SAESL and Malaysia, alongside the Safran LEAP JV and Air India MOU, should support longer-term growth. While returns remain modest, I’m inclined to hold and wait for these initiatives to translate into stronger earnings.

$Keppel Reit(K71U.SG)I’m looking forward to Keppel REIT’s earnings on 29 July as they should provide a better gauge of whether my investment thesis remains on track. I’ll be paying close attention to rental reversions and occupancy. Positive commentary on these fronts would strengthen my confidence in the REIT’s long-term prospects. A hawkish Fed however poses some downside risks

$SIA Engineering(S59.SG)I’m considering exiting my SIA Engineering position as the investment thesis has become less compelling. With aviation demand largely normalised, much of the recovery appears to be reflected in the share price, while upside catalysts look limited. I may reallocate the capital to semiconductor names, where the recent pullback presents a more attractive risk-reward opportunity.
