Is it me, or does seem like everyone is overreacting and expressing sentiments of both extremes, some having enough enthusiasm that the market should be recovering, with others believing that it was a crash. Firstly, calling it a crash seems disingenuous at best and malicious at worst. Crash seems to imply something went seriously wrong out of nowhere, but almost everyone took a hit because of the Iran crisis. Anything outside of oil, defence related companies and safe assets like gold, was expected to take a hit. If anything, the rally now might be a false dawn with everyone wanting to delude themselves into believing that everything is fine. Secondly, with the president of the united states, everyone would do well to temper their expectations. He is too chaotic and whimsic

DBS, OCBC, and UOB all took hits, but DBS is stealing the spotlight—dropping to around $55 SGD and whispering rumors of a slide to $50. Is this the perfect storm to buy the dip, or should you hold your horses for even lower prices? Let's dive deep into the chaos and uncover if now's your golden ticket to riches. 💰🚀 First off, what's fueling this freefall? Global jitters from interest rate tweaks and economic slowdown fears are hammering banks worldwide. For DBS, net interest margins are squeez

Better stay on the sideline till Trump term is over

🌟🌟🌟The Year of the Fire Horse has just delivered a classic Black Swan event.  As of March 2, the Straits Times Index (STI) had slid to 4,890, dragged down by a 5.9% plunge in SATS and a 4.7% drop in Singapore Airlines.  While the weak hands are panic selling at the worst possible moment, I am standing there with a bucket, ready to be greedy while others are fearful. The Banking Bastion: DBS at SGD 55 is a Wonderful Price  JPMorgan's SGD 70 target price for DBS:  When a titan like JPMorgan sets a target price for $DBS(D05.SI)$  it is not looking at the current headlines.  It is looking at the structural earnings power of DBS.  JPMorgan believes that DBS is transitioning from a regi

Wait for another round of falling 55 is still high

$Straits Times Index(STI.SI)$ Buckle up, investors! The Straits Times Index took a nasty hit today, plunging 2.2% to close at 4,883 amid escalating US-Iran tensions that's got oil spiking and everyone scrambling for safe havens like gold and Treasuries. 😱 But hey, is this the perfect storm for a buy-the-dip frenzy? With banks like DBS sliding to $55.63 (down 2.6%), airlines getting hammered, and defense plays like ST Engineering bucking the trend with a solid 2.8% gain, there's rotation happening faster than you can say "geopolitical chaos." Let's dive deep into why this dip might be your golden ticket – or a trap to avoid. 🚀 First off, the big picture: Oil's up a whopping 6.6% to $71.46 per barrel thanks to strikes disrupting crude flows throug

Will wait till it drop further

Grab the opportunity to load up now. The fear around the Iran situation does not change the narrative that DBS continue to be a solid business with an increasingly diversified income stream. 

Might drop further more, but still a good stock 

Looking back to Dec 2025 price as reference. That could be the support level if war continues for another 2 to 3 wks.  Good luck Tigers! 

I don't mind getting more given that the dividends is ok! 

just keep adding slowly regardless

No one can predict if it will drop further or this is the turning point and rebound after this. Just buy in tranches if you yet to have a full position in DBS. Dividend can cover some downside and hold it for it to compound[USD]  [USD]  [USD]  

Whether D05 will continue to drop or not nobody knows and nobody can control. Important thing is, what is your strategy? My strategy is DCA and buy evey other month. If ones can do it consistently then there is no fear whether or not prices go down, up or in circles

DBS - met my target buy at a much better price. Wait for price go down further. Then buy and hold, both for dividends and further upside in next 1-2 yrs in Context of SG rise in AI.  STI go up, anything on its top 3 also go up!

DBS is earning billions in profits. So much so that they can even promise you steady dividends for next few years. I look at the entire STI and there is not one company earning this much every year and willing to share that much of their cash. Going forward, DBS continues to take advantage of AI to cut costs while expanding revenue from the wealth coming into this region. So it's as safe an investment as it gets. The saying goes that if DBS fails, then Singapore itself will be in dire straits. It's that big a part of our economy 

【Voting Post】Just picked up 100 shares of DBS at 57.92. 📉 Still holding strong. I know the FY2025 numbers show a bit of a dip, and seeing the Big Three in the red today might look scary to some. But after digging into the results, I’m not sweating this drop at all. Here’s why I’m holding my ground: That 38% Dividend Boost: DBS is still the "Dividend King" for a reason. Missing Q4 estimates is a short-term hurdle, but that payout hike tells me the management isn't worried about their long-term cash flow. The "Dip" is Relative: My entry at 57.920 might be underwater right now, but for a bank as well-capitalized as DBS, these fluctuations are part of the cycle. I’m playing the long game here. Market Overreaction?: It feels like the market is reacting heavily to the 2026 "cautious outlook," but if you're l

It may drop further
