Singtel Rebounds

In my last post on Singtel, I mentioned that prices look set for a rebound and I was very tempted to buy in at that price of $3.04 with the 200 day moving average supporting more selling. (See Singtel Attractive? for discussion.) True enough, Singtel bottomed then and have broke through the $3.08 resistance pointed out. See chart below for a clearer picture.


With MACD providing a buy signal and Stochastics crossing the oversold region, prices may rebound even higher to find support at its 100dma where it was formerly before going XD. However, with what seems like a wedge forming, price must not to drop back to close below $3.09 to avoid being caught in this which may eventually send prices even lower. Though it seems unlikely to happen with the bottoming of the RSI and a pick up of volume, MFI and ADX has yet to turn up convincingly. Should prices close above $3.09, it is likely that prices will continue trending upwards. 

Again with PE being less expensive than its peers at 12.6, Singtel could be more attractive as a buy than the other two especially with a historical PE average of 13.4. However, the higher yields offered by Starhub at 7.2% and M1 at 5.7% compared to Singtel's low 4.6%, may delay the realization of its value.

Still waiting for a 5-6% yield and not vested,

  2. Hi ming,

    Thanks for reading and thanks for the info. You're tempting me haha.

    Yep I knew about the raise in dividends next year. They've been raising their dividends each year for awhile now. But I'm holding out for a drop in prices rather than an increase in payout. Helps with that safety margin, if you know what I mean.

    No rush to be vested anyway. =)

  3. yup, no rush. I'll be watching the market closely next week. after all they say that the market's behavior for the whole year usually mirrors the first week.
    personally looking at CMA now. maybe u can check it out, the TA indicators indicate that the worst might be over...

  4. Thanks for the heads up Isaac.

    Personally, I'm not really interested in CMA. Yield's quite dismal. Will check it out though.

    Thanks again Isaac. Much appreciated.

    Cheers,
