iFAST (SGX:AIY) stock jumps 3.4% as Singapore market hits record — investors eye Feb 12 results

Singapore, Jan 24, 2026, 15:43 SGT — Market closed

  • iFAST closed Friday 3.4% higher at S$10.37, having hit an intraday peak of S$10.46.
  • Bank shares propelled Singapore’s benchmark STI to close at a record high.
  • iFAST will report its full-year results on Feb. 12.

Shares of iFAST Corporation Ltd climbed 3.4% on Friday, closing at S$10.37 after reaching a session peak of S$10.46. Trading volume stood around 1.93 million shares. (iFast Corporation)

This move is significant for iFAST, a wealth platform that relies on fees. When markets climb, client assets usually grow and trading activity can increase. That, in turn, boosts revenue without a sharp rise in expenses.

Singapore equities edged further into record highs, buoying financial stocks. “Washington’s noise has been loud, but the market is learning how to filter it,” noted Stephen Innes, managing partner at SPI Asset Management, in a note cited by The Business Times. (The Business Times)

With markets closed over the weekend, attention turns to whether the stock can hold its gains when trading resumes — and if the broader “risk-on” mood endures. iFAST’s investor relations page confirms full-year results are due on Feb. 12, noting assets under administration (AUA) stood at S$30.62 billion as of Sept. 30, 2025. This figure reflects the total client assets managed on its platforms. (iFast Corporation)

The shares currently trade near the peak of their yearly range. Data from Investing.com lists the 52-week spread between S$6.02 and S$10.46, with Friday’s high hitting that upper limit. (Investing)

Global signals gave a boost. Asian shares climbed Friday following the Bank of Japan’s decision to hold monetary policy steady, a move that helped risk assets bounce back throughout the region. (Reuters)

For iFAST holders, the immediate focus is clear: will the rally hold, or fade as buying interest wanes? Trading volumes on the platform, market trends, and inflows of new client money usually surface fast in sentiment around the stock.

On the flip side, if equities retreat or volatility spikes again, wealth platforms could face weaker activity. The market tends to get less patient with valuations following a rally to record highs.

iFAST’s full-year results on Feb. 12 are the next big milestone. Investors will be watching closely for any updates on client asset growth, net inflows, and whether momentum held up into the year’s close.

  • Higher Global Sugar Output Pressures Prices as Brazil and India Boost Production
    January 24, 2026, 2:45 AM EST. Global sugar prices are under pressure due to higher production forecasts from major producers. Brazil's Center-South sugar output for 2025-26 rose 0.9% year-on-year to 40.222 million metric tons (MMT), with a higher ratio of cane crushed for sugar versus ethanol. The India Sugar Mill Association raised its output estimate for 2025-26 to 31 MMT, up 18.8% year-on-year, potentially increasing sugar exports after cutting ethanol use forecasts. The International Sugar Organization expects a surplus of 1.625 million MMT in 2025-26, reversing the previous deficit. However, a projected drop in Brazil's 2026-27 output could support prices. Funds hold record long positions in London white sugar futures, increasing price volatility risks amid abundant supplies.
