The Selloff of the Singapore Banks Continues On Thursday. What Should Investors Do?

🌟🌟🌟The selling pressure on the Singapore Exchange has intensified for a second consecutive day, turning what started as a single broker downgrade into a broader macro rout.  Following Wednesday's initial hit, $DBS(D05.SI)$  $OCBC Bank(O39.SI)$  and $UOB(U11.SI)$  extended their declines on Thursday, dragging the benchmark Straits Times Index (STI) down by more than 2.5%. The new catalyst shifting this from corporate profit taking to sector wide panic is a fresh warning from JP Morgan.  Analysts warned that surging global long bond yields whi

CEO Promise 2.0: Analysts are convinced

PLTR (Palantir Technologies) currently carries a Moderate Buy / Buy consensus from Wall Street, with average 12-month price targets clustered around $196–$222 (depending on the aggregator and recency of targets). Recent trading levels are near $194–$203 (as of early October 8, 2026 data), so the average target implies roughly flat to modest upside (or slight downside in some snapshots), while the high end of targets points to 15–30%+ potential. Consensus Overview Across major sources (PriceTargets.com, Yahoo Finance, StockAnalysis, Light Horse, etc.): Ratings breakdown** (approx. 30–36 analysts): Predominantly Buy/Strong Buy (roughly 23–24 Buys + 1 Strong Buy in recent tallies), with 9–10 Holds and 2–3 Sells. Average price target**: $196–$200 in broader samples; higher ($215–$222) when foc

I am still bullish on the AI-driven memory cycle, especially with HBM demand remaining strong. Samsung’s huge profit growth shows how powerful the current pricing environment is, but the muted share-price reaction tells me investors are already looking beyond the next quarter. For me, the key question is how sustainable these margins are. I will watch DRAM/HBM pricing, new capacity and whether hyperscalers push harder on costs. In a cyclical industry, stocks can peak before earnings do. I am not calling the cycle over yet because AI infrastructure demand remains strong. However, I would stay selective rather than chase record earnings. If demand keeps outpacing supply, the cycle could last much longer. @Tiger_comments

The Dow Is Down 6% Since August. Goldman Sachs Alone Is A Third Of It.

$SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF Trust(DIA)$   $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$   $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$   Mathematical Money | October 9, 2026 Two things are true at the same time right now and they shouldn't be. $SPY$ and $QQQ$ both set record closes on Tuesday and sit within one percent of them tonight. $DIA$ peaked on 5 August and has fallen about 6% since, with no bounce worth the name in between. Most of the commentary I've read explains this as old economy versus new, or value versus growth. I went and did the arithmetic instead, and the answer turns out to be much more specific than that.

Behind the Bank Rout: Catalyst or Correction in Singapore’s Financials

Singapore’s stock market experienced a major sell-off on October 8, 2026, driven by a sharp decline in its heavyweight banking stocks. This has also rattled retail and institutional investors alike. In this article, we would like to provide a breakdown of whether the sell-off is a mere reaction to analyst notes or a necessary fundamental re-pricing, while offering a strategic framework for evaluating entry points. 1. Unpacking the Trigger: The Citibank Downgrade On October 7, 2026, Singapore's financial markets experienced a sharp shock when $OCBC Bank(O39.SI)$ OCBC shares tumbled nearly 6% following a downgrade from Citibank. Citi revised its rating on OCBC from "neutral" to "sell," citing softer-than-expected third-quarter earnings expectation

I think the bigger force at the long end is the term premium rather than just expectations for another Fed hike. Persistent fiscal deficits and heavy Treasury issuance mean investors need to absorb more duration, while inflation uncertainty makes them demand higher compensation for holding 10Y and 30Y bonds. That can push long yields higher even if the Fed eventually pauses. So I am watching Treasury supply, auction demand and the term premium closely. If those pressures persist, a Fed pause may bring limited relief to long yields, keeping valuation pressure on equities, especially long-duration growth stocks.

Now after the Investor Day ra-ra speech, MRVL tanks.  And this were even after he had positive things to say.

Anthropic and OpenAI.  What if like SpaceX the IPO does not deliver, or maintain super high stock prices?

Tesla: 3 Key Investor Takeaways 1. Demand Momentum Is Improving: Q3 deliveries exceeded production by 22,141 vehicles, signaling inventory reduction and potentially healthier end-market demand. The key question is whether this reflects sustainable consumer demand or temporary delivery timing. 2. A Positive Quarter Doesn't Guarantee a Valuation Recovery: Despite the 4.65% share-price gain, Tesla remains down 17.6% YTD versus the S&P 500's 12.81% gain. The market needs evidence of sustained growth, resilient margins, and stronger earnings expectations to justify multiple expansion. 3. Watch Execution, Not Just Deliveries: The next leg of the rally depends on whether Tesla can convert delivery growth into profitable growth. Monitor automotive gross margins, pricing trends, free cash flow,

TOPMojoStellar: Fair points to both. I’d look beyond delivery numbers and inventory movements to see whether Tesla can translate volume growth into sustainable margins and stronger cash flow. The real catalyst for a rerating will be evidence that demand, pricing power, and profitability are improving together. Until then, the upside case needs execution, not just a better delivery headline. Cheers [Cool]

Iggy's Journal: DBS, OCBC and UOB Each Fell More Than 4% in One Day. Who Is Giving You the Reason?

Iggy's Journal: DBS, OCBC and UOB Each Fell More Than 4% in One Day. Who Is Giving You the Reason? Fri 09 Oct 2026 | Midday The Numbers On 8 Oct, DBS closed down 4.7 percent, OCBC down 4.3 percent and UOB down 5.2 percent, per Singapore Business Review citing SGX. The reports I read give four different reasons, from profit-taking to Citi's cut of OCBC to Sell, and they show no announcement from any of the three banks in the two sessions. Most of what is quoted describes market mood or views about price, not facts about the companies. The new episode sorts the reasons by who is giving them. My Personal Take Two of the reasons are easy to place. Profit-taking describes what sellers did, not what a bank did. Citi's cut on OCBC is a forecast and a valuation from one broker, not a result from t

Money Is Moving Beyond Chips. The Next Winners May Be Hiding in Plain Sight.

$CoreWeave, Inc.(CRWV)$  $Lumentum(LITE)$  $Bloom Energy Corp(BE)$ $NVIDIA(NVDA)$   When semiconductor stocks sell off, it’s tempting to assume the AI trade is losing momentum. But look at Thursday’s movers. CoreWeave jumped 11.72%, Lumentum surged 11.04%, Bloom Energy gained 9.63%, and Nebius climbed 7.73%, even as chip stocks came under pressure. My question: Is the market abandoning AI, or shifting its attention to the infrastructure needed to make AI work? I see four very different investment stories emerging. 🔌 1.

The First Post-Holiday Rebound Is Imminent, Here’s How I’m Positioning

Markets saw little meaningful volatility during the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holiday, giving us a calm and enjoyable break. However, unusual moves emerged once trading resumed. The rebound in crude oil futures deserves the most attention. The continuous WTI crude oil contract opened at 90.40, reached a high of 93.68 and a low of 88.79, before closing at 92.91. The candle itself was not extraordinary. Its location was what mattered. My technical model provides a useful framework for tracking this market over time. Crude oil tends to respect key technical levels. This rebound began precisely at the long-term ascending trendline extending from the lows. Prices also held the previous consolidation range between 89.86 and 104.70 :

Singapore Bank Stocks Extend Losses After JPMorgan Flags Pressure From Soaring Long Bond Yields on Q3 Profits

Singapore bank shares deepened their decline on Friday as JPMorgan Chase & Co. cautioned that sharply rising long bond yields will weigh on third-quarter earnings for lenders in Southeast Asia. $UOB(U11.SI)$ fell 1.91%; $DBS(D05.SI)$ fell 1.27%; $OCBC Bank(O39.SI)$ fell 0.45%. On Thursday, DBS Group Holdings Ltd. and Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp. each fell more than 4%, while United Overseas Bank Ltd. dropped 5.2%. These stocks were among the heaviest drags on the benchmark Straits Times Index, which plunged 3.5%, its biggest drop since April 2025. The index was the weakest performer in Asia. The slide follows a multiyear rally in Singapore lenders fuel

Samsung’s 782.5% Surge and the Global Memory Super-Cycle

$Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.(SSNLF)$ Samsung Electronics has posted an astonishing 782.5% surge in preliminary third-quarter operating profit, reaching 107.4 trillion won (US$80.1 billion). In this article, we would like to share an in-depth equity valuation & beneficiary analysis for institutional investors and what it means for retail investors like us. 1. Decoding Samsung's Record-Breaking Quarter In October 2026, Samsung Electronics altered the financial landscape of technology by projecting a preliminary third-quarter operating profit of 107.4 trillion won ($80.1 billion). This staggering 782.5% year-over-year leap represents the first time in technological history that a single corporate entity has posted a quarterly operating profit

US Banks GS, JPM, MS - Profits alone won't save ?

If you think US banks are still winners in 2026, it needs an October update. For starters, $Goldman Sachs(GS)$ stock ticked down slightly early Thu, 08 Oct 2026, extending a painful sell-off that has almost zeroed out 2026 gains for the storied Wall Street bank - days ahead of its Q3 2026 earnings release. (see below) According to Yahoo Finance data: GS has fallen in 10 of the past 12 weeks. Dropping more than -20% since its July 2026 peak. (see below) For the year, shares were up less than 1% as of Thu, 08 Oct 2026 morning. Prior to 08 Oct 2026's trading, shares of the investment bank had lost -13.44% lagged the Finance sector's loss of -4.09% and the S&P 500's gain of +1.4%. The retreat comes as a dramatic reversal of investor appetite.

I think the long end can stay elevated, or even move higher, even if the Fed stands pat. The key issue is that the 10Y/30Y are increasingly being driven by more than the expected Fed path. Fiscal deficits, heavy Treasury issuance and a rising term premium can keep pushing long-term yields higher without another rate hike. A Fed pause may relieve some pressure at the front end, but it does not automatically solve the supply-demand imbalance further out the curve. If investors demand more compensation to hold duration, the curve could steepen through higher long-end yields. For equities, that matters because a 5%+ 10Y keeps the discount-rate hurdle high, particularly for expensive growth stocks. My base case: Fed pause ≠ long-end relief. I would watch Treasury auctions, term premium and infl
