3 SGX Stocks Rising Despite Market Crash: Time to Buy or Too Late to Chase?

March has been rough for the Singapore market. Banks, gaming, and consumer stocks have all taken turns getting hit. But what’s interesting is this: while many stocks are falling, a few are quietly climbing. Among SGX blue chips and mainboard names, these three not only avoided the selloff but posted eye-catching gains: - AEM Holdings +142% YTD - ST Engineering hit a record high in mid-March (+28% YTD) - Keppel +13% YTD What’s behind their resilience? And are they still worth chasing?

Many countries are going for the 'fry to fly' , recycling used oil to be fuel for use, consumer & commercial uses.

OCBC Hits Record High, 5x Long DLC Gains +19%

Singapore 3 major banks, DBS, UOB, and OCBC, have been rising despite broader market weakness mainly due to dip buying and their reputation as stable, dividend paying blue chips. Investors tend to rotate into these names during uncertainty because of their strong balance sheets and consistent earnings, making them relatively defensive compared to more volatile sectors. While the upward move suggests continued confidence and it is not necessarily too late for long term investors seeking steady returns, the recent gains are partly sentiment driven, so chasing at current levels carries short term risk, a more prudent approach would be gradual accumulation rather than jumping in all at once.

Think it is too late to chase these 3 stocks. AEM tends to be risker and more volatile than Keppel Corp and ST Engineering.

The Safe Haven Surge: Why Singapore is the World's Wealth Bunker Amid "Stone Age" Storms 🌟🌟🌟 If you ever wondered where the smart money goes when the headlines get "prehistoric", just look at Singapore.  As the rhetoric of "Stone Age" strikes and USD 111 oil hits the Middle East, a massive wave of capital flight is currently washing onto our shores.  Investors are not looking for tax breaks anymore.  They are looking for a "geopolitical life jacket" and Singapore is the one place that fits perfectly. While Dubai faces the heat of a front line financial hub, Singapore has reconfirmed its status as the ultimate safe haven.  Family offices are shifting their wealth structures here faster than a Ferrari on ECP, prioritising our AAA rated stability over tax free proximity to

Options puppy trading ideas : OUE REIT my 6.28% cash flow dividend stock

📈 Why I’m Buying OUE REIT (TS0U): A 6.28% Dividend Play with Solid TA & FA 💰 📊 Price Action & Technical Setup From a technical analysis (TA) perspective, OUE REIT is showing a steady and constructive structure that makes it attractive for accumulation rather than speculation. The price is currently trading around 0.355 SGD, holding above key short-term moving averages (VMA1 and VMA2), which signals near-term support. Even more importantly, the longer-term trend (visible from the broader chart) shows a gradual upward trajectory from ~0.32 to ~0.38, followed by a healthy consolidation. This type of price behavior is important. Instead of a sharp spike (which often leads to sharp crashes), OUE REIT has formed a “higher lows” pattern, suggesting buyers are stepping in consistently.

st eng PE is at all time high Defense stocks aren't best judged on trailing P/E alone. Key factors include:Order backlog & book-to-bill ratio — Visibility into multi-year revenue (ST Eng has a healthy one). Growth profile — Especially in high-margin areas like electronics, cyber, and smart defence systems. EV/EBIT or forward P/E — These better capture the business quality than trailing earnings, which can be lumpy. Contract stability — Government-backed revenue often justifies a premium. Many quality defence names trade at elevated multiples today due to geopolitical spending, but always cross-check with EV/EBITDA, free cash flow conversion, and peer comps (e.g., some pure-play defence peers sit lower, while growth-oriented ones command 30x+ forward). At current levels, ST Eng pr

🌟🌟🌟March was supposed to be the month of dour faces and checking our portfolios with one eye closed.  But then there are $AEM SGD(AWX.SI)$ $ST Engineering(S63.SI)$ and $Keppel(BN4.SI)$ , acting like they did not know that the market was having a meltdown. AEM is having a party, surging over 90% because it finally realised that AI is the magic word that makes investors excited and throw money at it.

March has been rough for the Singapore market, but the divergence stands out. While many sectors sold off, $AEM SGD(AWX.SI)$ , $ST Engineering(S63.SI)$ and $Keppel(BN4.SI)$ moved higher — showing the market is rotating into names with strong earnings visibility and structural themes. For me, AEM is the most interesting but also the most speculative. The AI/HPC shift and cash flow recovery are real positives, but the sharp rally already prices in a lot, so I’d be cautious chasing here. ST Engineering (S63.SI) and Keppel Corporation (BN4.SI) feel more stable. ST Engineering has strong order visibility but looks fully valued, while Keppel’s data center a
