Singapore Airlines stock rises as Air India Dreamliner checks show no issues; Feb 24 update looms

Singapore, Feb 3, 2026, 15:00 SGT — Regular session

Shares of Singapore Airlines Ltd edged up roughly 2% Tuesday afternoon, hitting S$6.49 after closing at S$6.36 previously. Over the last 52 weeks, the stock fluctuated between S$5.90 and S$7.63.

The move comes as airline executives convene in Singapore for the region’s key aviation event, where discussions now focus on delivery delays, maintenance snags, and their impact on costs. Meanwhile, investors in Singapore Airlines are eyeing the company’s upcoming business update due later this month.

All eyes are on Air India, jointly owned by Tata Group and Singapore Airlines, after the carrier grounded a Boeing 787 Dreamliner when a pilot flagged a possible fault with the fuel control switch. The airline has since launched inspections of the switches across its Dreamliner fleet. A source told Reuters no problems have been spotted so far, and the checks won’t require grounding the entire fleet. Boeing said it is assisting with the review.

Singapore Airlines has renewed its component services contract with Collins Aerospace for its Boeing 777 fleet, adding another five years, FlightGlobal reported. The RTX unit confirmed the deal now includes 27 aircraft, with five freighters newly brought into the programme.

The bigger pinch isn’t confined to a single airline. Willie Walsh, director general of the International Air Transport Association, said supply-chain snarls keep dogging airlines and won’t clear up overnight. “This disruption continues to have a major impact,” he told the Changi Aviation Summit before the Singapore Airshow, Reuters reported.

Singapore Airlines is set to release its FY2025/26 third-quarter business update on Feb. 24.

Investors will dig into the update for clues on passenger yields, capacity plans, and any signs that cost pressures might be easing. They’ll also be alert to potential fallout from recent moves at Air India, which could shift sentiment around the stake.

The risk is clear. If Air India’s inspections reveal broader issues, or regulators push for a round of mandatory checks that ground planes, operations could take a hit. That would raise fresh doubts about the carrier’s near-term earnings prospects.

Traders will be watching this week’s airshow closely for any signs of supply issues or changes in maintenance expenses. The next major company event to note is Singapore Airlines’ business update on Feb. 24.

  • Goldman Sachs Sees North Asian Stocks Outperforming Southern Markets on AI and Energy Resilience
    May 19, 2026, 9:30 PM EDT. According to Goldman Sachs strategist Tim Moe, North Asian equity markets outperform South Asian ones due to greater resilience to energy shocks and strong AI sector growth. South Korea and Taiwan lead with tech-heavy indices, posting significant year-to-date gains, including over 80% in South Korea. In contrast, South Asia, including Indonesia, suffers a 25% decline due to lacking technology exposure and higher energy vulnerability. China's A-shares have gained 10% amid emerging deflation recovery and policy support, while H-shares lag given weaker tech earnings. Moe warns of potential market corrections as energy supply shocks loom, despite optimism for stable Japanese markets fueled by political stability and AI robotics growth.
