SGX stock edges up as Nasdaq dual-listing rules move to Feb 8 deadline; Singapore Exchange earnings next

Singapore, Jan 12, 2026, 15:21 SGT — Regular session Shares of Singapore Exchange Ltd (S68) climbed 0.5% to S$17.59 by 3:10 p.m. Singapore time Monday, amid investor interest in new efforts to simplify dual listings in Singapore and the U.S. (StockAnalysis) The bourse operator is at the heart of Singapore’s push to revive its market. A genuine boost in listings or trading volume would be significant, since exchanges rake in fees whenever more money and securities move through.

Singtel stock price today: shares edge up as Singapore’s STI hovers near a fresh high

Singapore, Jan 12, 2026, 15:08 SGT — Regular session Singapore Telecommunications Ltd shares inched up 0.2% to S$4.47 in afternoon trade on Monday, after swinging between S$4.42 and S$4.49. The broader FTSE Straits Times Index rose 0.7% to about 4,776, sitting close to its 52-week high.

Singapore, Jan 12, 2026, 15:22 SGT — Regular session Shares of Yangzijiang Shipbuilding (Holdings) Ltd climbed 1.1% to S$3.66 on Monday, hitting the upper limit of their 52-week trading range amid gains in Singapore’s stock market.

Woodside Energy shares hold near one-month peak as oil jitters keep traders on edge

Sydney, January 12, 2026, 17:46 AEDT — Post-market update Shares of Woodside Energy Group Ltd closed Monday up 0.6% at A$23.72, having earlier hit A$24.08—their best price in roughly four weeks. Trading volume reached 2.23 million shares, according to data.

Evolution Mining stock closes higher as gold breaks $4,600 — what EVN investors watch next

Sydney, Jan 12, 2026, 17:44 AEDT — The market has closed. Shares of Evolution Mining Limited (EVN.AX) rose 0.7% to close at A$12.91 on Monday, hitting an intraday peak of A$13.28. The stock finished just below its 52-week high of A$13.30. (Investing.com) This shift is significant since the tape has simplified once more.

Wesfarmers stock climbs on Australia spending data as rate-hike chatter returns

Sydney, Jan 12, 2026, 17:42 AEDT — Market closed. Wesfarmers Limited shares climbed 1.44%, closing Monday at A$82.23. The stock fluctuated between A$81.23 and A$82.40 during the session, after kicking off at A$81.24. Roughly 1.08 million shares traded hands. (Investing.com) This shift is significant since the next phase for major retailers hinges more on data from Canberra than on store updates. A recent boost in household spending fuels the “soft landing” narrative, despite persistent inflation pressures. For Wesfarmers, increased consumer spending signals a boost for sales across its retail-focused portfolio. Yet, the same figures also bolster arguments for raising interest
