Excerpt from DBS report:
- The STI is expected to rally towards a year-end target of 4,430, supported by MAS equity market measures, attractive dividend yields, net global liquidity inflow, and favourable seasonal trends.
- Small-mid-cap stocks (SMCs) may benefit from MAS support, including new EQDP managers, enhanced GEMS scheme, and a “Value Unlock” package.
- Highlighted value plays include stocks with value-unlocking potential, quality stocks with low visibility or valuations, and those with room for return improvements via capital management.
- Industrial and technology sectors are favoured, with picks such as SIA Eng, SATS, Yangzijiang, Seatrium, UMS, and Frencken. SREITs remain attractive on pullbacks.
