Singtel Stock (SGX: Z74) Outlook on Dec 20, 2025: Dividend Momentum, Data Centre Upside, and Optus Risk in Focus

Singapore Telecommunications Limited (Singtel) has spent 2025 giving investors a very “telecom-utility-meets-digital-infrastructure” storyline: steadier core earnings, bigger dividends, and a widening exposure to data centres—while its Australian unit Optus keeps generating headlines for all the wrong reasons.
