To The Moon

1) DBS and OCBC at highs: add or trim? For long-term holders, this is a hold or selective trim, not an aggressive add. DBS Group and OCBC are pricing in peak ROE and stable credit conditions. Adding on strength only makes sense if dividends are the priority. Trimming into rallies to rebalance risk is rational. 2) Will UOB catch up? UOB is the more plausible laggard-to-catch-up play. Its ASEAN exposure offers medium-term upside if regional growth improves, but near-term catalysts are weaker. Expect slower re-rating rather than a sharp catch-up. 3) Rate cuts in 2026: can banks still rise? Yes, but returns will be dividend-led, not multiple-driven. NIMs will compress, yet loan growth, fee income, and asset quality should cushion earnings. Bank stocks can grind higher, but expect mid-sing

While SG banks are making eyes-catching headlines, they are also entering the hyped-valuation zone (based on various attributes used in TA) and hence increased risks. One should ponder on sustainability of such hyped valuations, whether elements such as foreign hot funds flooding in due to loss of faith in other markets, are jacking up SG banks in unrealistic fashion. Flashbacks/Shadows of 1997/8 and 2007/8 crisis combined with Warren Buffet’s huge cash pile actions across 2025 perhaps offer alternative insight and strategies to better position for either directions of markets movement. 😁🤞🏼

With DBS (D05) and OCBC (O39) at record highs driving the Straits Times Index past 4,700, investors face a dilemma between adding on strength or locking in profits。。。 Treating DBS as a "core asset"with a one-way upward trend, portfolio rebalancing depends on whether the $20 mark for OCBC is a milestone or psychological barrier as investors weigh capital preservation against continued momentum While UOB (U11) has recently lagged its peers, its valuation discount and emphasis on wealth management provide a defensive catch-up opportunity for value-oriented investors If 2026 marks the start of a rate-cut cycle, bank stocks can still rise; resilience will depend on shifting focus from margin expansion to capital returns and buybacks, with diversified fee-based income supporting growth despite m

Blue Chips or Blue Sky? SG Banks Smash History, But Is the Easy Money Already Made? 🏦🚀 DBS touches $57.93. OCBC breaches the fortress at $20.00. Yesterday wasn’t just a green day—it was a statement. For the first time in a decade, we witnessed a synchronized, high-volume breakout across Singapore’s banking giants. The psychological ceiling of $20 for OCBC has been shattered, putting the stock into "blue sky" territory. But let’s cut through the celebration. For the active Tiger trader, an All-Time High (ATH) is the hardest chart to trade. It forces the ultimate dilemma: Is this the start of a new structural bull run, or a "blow-off top" before the smart money exits? Here is the deep dive on the mechanics of this rally and how to position for what comes next. 1️⃣ The "Blue Sky" Breakout: Wh

Considering purchasing UOB/OCBC as value stock picks, seeings as DBS just reached an all time high in the stock market recently. UOB and OCBC are both high quality stocks that I personally want exposure to.

Glad to see new highs for DBS and OCBC, waiting for UOB to catch up.

Good to see history being made. Hopefully our local banks can keep it up for 2026 ! Jia you !

Nice. Post  Sg bank should have this type of good banks around to stable the Singapore economy.

Little greed is good. Greedy is far better. Know your limits!

$DBS(D05.SI)$ going to park here this year

🌟🌟🌟January 6 marks a special day for me as I celebrate the all time highs of $DBS(D05.SI)$ & $OCBC Bank(O39.SI)$ with my fellow Singaporeans.  This shows the "coming of age" of our local banks & the confidence from investors to invest in DBS and OCBC.  I believe that it is only a matter of time before $UOB(U11.SI)$ will also rise in tandem with the other 2 banks. At a P/

DBS and OCBC at the Summit: Triumph or a Ticking Clock? 🌟🌟🌟There is nothing quite like the feeling of joy on January 6 to see that both my investments in $DBS(D05.SI)$  and $OCBC Bank(O39.SI)$  hitting intoxicating all time highs.  But standing at the summit can be a lonely experience.  It sparks a raw emotional dilemma: Do I keep riding this wave of triumph or do I lock in these gains before the clouds roll in? The Dilemma: Adding on Strength or Locking in Profits? This isn't just about numbers.  It is a test of nerve. The Case for Adding on Strength:  Heavyweights like JPMorgan are bullish on DBS and OCBC.&nb

$Deepwater Beachfront Small Cap ETF(DBSC)$ $OCBC Bank(O39.SI)$ What a thrill for Singapore's investing crowd! OCBC just shattered the $20 ceiling for the very first time, blasting open at $20.04 and cruising to $20.14 mid-morning. DBS joined the party with a sparkling new peak at $57.48 intraday, holding strong at $57.59. Seeing two of our powerhouse local banks scaling these heights together? That's a showstopper we haven't witnessed in the last ten years. 🏆📈 This isn't just random luck – it's built on solid momentum. OCBC's been on fire since November 2025, powered by a robust Q3 net profit of $1.98 billion, thanks to surging non-interest income and trimmed allowances. Over the first nine months of 20

$DBS(D05.SI)$ $ocbc bank(O39.SI)$ hitting all-time highs together isn’t just about dividends anymore — to me, it reflects earnings resilience and a clear return of local capital to familiar, high-quality names. In a volatile global backdrop, that kind of certainty matters. I’m still holding tight on both DBS and OCBC. DBS remains my core banking position, and the April 2025 pullback only strengthened my conviction in its long-term trend. OCBC breaking above $20 feels more like a psychological unlock than a peak, with the market clearly looking past near-term noise and pricing in forward earnings momentum. UOB could be next, but it likely needs a clearer catalyst to re-rate. Even if 2026 brings gra

I am crying because they never drop and let me buy more. I only want to buy on big dips.. but I waited and waited and now they go higher and higher... so cannot buy more. On the other hand, I'm smiling as my assets grow and give me 5% dividends annually. SG banks are the way to go for your dividens portfolio. Can also add REITS. I have been adding SG REITS. Are you?

January 6 was a meaningful day worth celebrating for many Singapore investors. $OCBC Bank(O39.SI)$ broke through the $20 mark for the first time in history, opening at $20.04 $DBS(D05.SI)$ also set a new record, touching $57.48 intradayAmong Singapore’s three local banks, having two reach all-time highs at the same time is a rare sight over the past decade. This rally is no longer just about high dividend yields, it reflects a combination of earnings resilience, interest rate cycle expectations, and a return of local capital flows.1.
