Singapore Airlines stock slips as oil jumps; traders eye Feb 24 update

Singapore, Jan 11, 2026, 15:35 (SGT) — Market closed Shares of Singapore Airlines Ltd edged down 0.5% to close at S$6.43, as investors mulled rising fuel expenses against steady travel demand ahead of the weekend. The stock fluctuated between S$6.42 and S$6.47, with roughly 4.25 million shares exchanging hands. (Investing.com UK) Fuel remains the key near-term mover. Brent crude closed 2.18% higher at $63.34 a barrel Friday, while WTI gained 2.35%, finishing at $59.12. Prices drew support from ongoing supply concerns tied to Iran and the Russia-Ukraine conflict. “The uprising in Iran is keeping the market on edge,” said Phil

Yangzijiang Shipbuilding stock back on watchlists after institutional inflows; earnings next in March

Singapore, Jan 11, 2026, 15:25 SGT — Market closed Yangzijiang Shipbuilding (Holdings) Ltd was among the Singapore stocks that drew the largest net institutional inflows in the first five trading sessions of 2026, a Business Times review showed, as funds turned net buyers to start the year. The list also included City Developments, OCBC, Hongkong Land, CapitaLand Investment, Singapore Exchange, ST Engineering, Sats, Venture Corp and UOL, the report said. (The Business Times) That matters because early-year fund flows often set the tone for the next leg of trading in Singapore, especially in liquid index names. When institutions lean the

SGX stock in focus after Nasdaq dual-listing rule push, December volumes — what’s next

Singapore, Jan 11, 2026, 15:20 SGT — Market closed Singapore Exchange Ltd (SGXL.SI) shares closed up 1.2% on Friday at S$17.51, as new consultations tied to a planned Nasdaq dual-listing route kept the exchange operator in focus. The stock traded between S$17.20 and S$17.53 and about 2.0 million shares changed hands. (StockAnalysis) The policy push matters because SGX’s revenue is closely linked to listings and trading activity. A lift in liquidity can show up quickly in fees, while a deeper IPO pipeline tends to play out over quarters, not days. The Nasdaq tie-up is meant to cut cost and complexity

Hongkong Land stock jumps on fresh buyback filing — $7.77 is the level to watch

HONG KONG, Jan 11, 2026, 15:18 HKT — Market closed Shares of Hongkong Land Holdings Limited (H78.SI) climbed 3.2% to close at $7.73 on Friday, pushing gains further after the company announced another share buyback. Since the start of the year, the stock has rallied roughly 11%. (MarketScreener Hong Kong) This development is significant as buybacks are gaining renewed attention among Singapore-listed companies. On Friday, the Monetary Authority of Singapore launched a consultation on legal reforms that would introduce “safe harbour” rules for share buybacks. This is part of a wider effort to streamline listings and boost their appeal. (Reuters)

Singtel stock faces Monday test as Optus outage log updates and U.S. CPI looms

SINGAPORE, Jan 11, 2026, 15:09 SGT — Market closed Shares of Singapore Telecommunications Ltd slipped 0.2% on Friday, closing at S$4.46, down by 1 cent. Over the weekend, its Australian arm Optus reported new local outages on its national register, notably a disruption lasting over five hours in South Australia’s Kangaroo Island region. (Yahoo Finance) This hits Singtel at a sensitive time, with Optus scrambling to regain customer trust following several network failures. Regulators are stepping up scrutiny, pushing for stricter safeguards. A recent review of Optus’ emergency-call outage in September uncovered critical protocol flaws and proposed 21 recommendations, all
UOB stock in focus after fresh buyback filing as rate bets return to the fore

UOB stock in focus after fresh buyback filing as rate bets return to the fore

SINGAPORE, Jan 11, 2026, 15:05 (SGT) — Market closed United Overseas Bank (UOB) repurchased and cancelled 38,000 shares on Friday, according to a filing with the Singapore Exchange. The bank paid between S$36.01 and S$36.21 per share, shelling out roughly S$1.37 million. This continues a steady pace of buybacks as the year unfolds. (SGX Links) This matters because bank investors have been focusing on capital returns—dividends and buybacks—while anticipating the next move in interest rates. UOB’s buybacks may be modest on a daily basis, but they reinforce the idea that shrinking share counts can help boost earnings per share when
OCBC stock slips on JPMorgan downgrade as Feb. 25 results loom

OCBC stock slips on JPMorgan downgrade as Feb. 25 results loom

Singapore, Jan 11, 2026, 15:04 SGT — Market closed Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation (OCBC) shares fell 1.8% on Friday to close at S$19.80 after JPMorgan cut its rating on the lender to “neutral” from “overweight”, while lifting its target price to S$20.50. DBS and United Overseas Bank ended higher on the day. (The Business Times) The call matters because OCBC goes into full-year results season trading near recent peaks, with little room left for soft guidance. The bank is scheduled to announce its 2025 full-year results on Feb. 25, a key read for dividends and buybacks and for how quickly earnings
CapitaLand Investment stock rises to S$2.89 as logistics push sharpens focus on Feb 11 results

CapitaLand Investment stock rises to S$2.89 as logistics push sharpens focus on Feb 11 results

Singapore, Jan 11, 2026, 15:06 (SGT) — Market closed Shares of CapitaLand Investment Limited climbed 1.8% on Friday, ending the session at S$2.89, giving the SGX-listed stock some momentum heading into the weekend. (TradingView) This shift is significant as investors increasingly see CLI less as a landlord and more as a steward of others’ capital. Fees linked to assets under management, or FUM, tend to be steadier than property gains, which fluctuate with market swings. CLI reported S$120 billion in FUM as of Nov. 5 and announced a minority stake in Ally Logistic Property, a smart warehouse developer. The CapitaLand

Singapore, Jan 11, 2026, 15:09 SGT — Market closed DBS Group Holdings Ltd (SGX: D05) is considering a move into major risk transfer deals, according to a report in The Straits Times on Friday. The paper referenced Standard Chartered’s $1.5 billion trade-finance transaction set for 2025 and Man Group’s projection that the market could double within five years. Shares of DBS closed at S$57.60, up 0.26 Singapore dollars, or 0.45%. The report noted DBS has held initial talks with funds investing in SRTs—transactions designed to offload part of loan-default risk to investors, often through credit-linked notes. Additionally, DBS is exploring

DroneShield shares in focus after JPMorgan flags 5% stake — what ASX:DRO traders watch next

Sydney, Jan 11, 2026, 17:23 AEDT — Market closed DroneShield (DRO.AX) heads into Monday’s ASX open with a new ownership disclosure after a filing showed JPMorgan Chase & Co and its affiliates crossed the 5% threshold in the counter-drone company. The move matters now because DroneShield has turned into a fast, flow-driven trade, and changes around big holders can move the stock even when there is no new contract headline. In Australia, a “substantial holder” is an investor with 5% or more of voting shares, which triggers disclosure. It also lands as investors look for a cleaner read on who
