I've always wondered if buybac

I've always wondered if buybacks are a tool to stop the bleeding during big market drops. Does it get easier to read the market once those buyback programmes are finished?

DBS seems to be doing fine without much buyback support at the moment—perhaps they are saving their 'bullets' for a better entry price?

I personally prefer DBS over its peers because of its massive scale, its 'national bank' status through POSB, and its lead in the digital spac

But i will wait awhile more with new tariff discussion on the card now.

How about you? 😅e..

STI Slides 2.1%, DBS at $55: Is This a Buy-the-Dip Moment?

SATS fell 5.9%, while Singapore Airlines dropped 4.7%. The three banks — DBS, OCBC and UOB — also closed lower, dragging the index to 4,890. In contrast, ST Engineering gained 2.8%, reflecting a rotation into defense amid geopolitical tension. With oil elevated and investors shifting toward Treasuries and gold, would you buy the dip? Who is your add-choice?
