Despite the fact that Green Build Technology Limited's (SGX:Y06) value has dropped 21% in the last week insiders who...

Oxley Holdings heads into this earnings season with the stock pinned around SGD0.071, after a flat few months that mask a much sharper slide over 90 days. The market has been treating it like a value story with baggage. The latest full year numbers make that baggage hard to ignore. Revenue for the year came in at SGD66.383m in the second half, while the company swung to a sizeable net loss of SGD51.66m over that same period. This is a profit squeeze story, and today’s price action will be all...

In recent weeks, Asian markets have experienced a mixed performance, with technology and semiconductor stocks showing resilience amid global economic uncertainties. As small-cap indices in the region face pressure from broader market sentiment and inflation concerns, investors are increasingly focusing on companies with strong fundamentals and insider buying as potential opportunities. Identifying stocks that exhibit solid financial health and strategic insider investments can be key in...

Tai Sin Electric stock closed at SGD0.535 after the earnings release, barely moved despite a report that puts margin pressure front and centre. Revenue for the latest half reached SGD315.042 million, yet net income came in at only SGD3.761 million, which keeps the trailing net profit margin at a slim 1.9%. The market seems to be treating this as business as usual, while the numbers point to a meaningful squeeze on profitability that deserves closer attention. Love Tai Sin Electric's revenue...

Grand Banks Yachts went into this earnings release with a reputation for solid profitability and a P/E of 10.2x that sat below the Singapore market, peers and the wider Asian machinery industry. Yet with the stock flat over the past week and roughly unchanged into the results, investors were clearly cautious. The new numbers keep the spotlight on margins. Net profit margin over the past 12 months sits at 7.7%, compared with 11.2% a year earlier, and a high level of non cash earnings now...

Tiong Woon Corporation Holding walked into this earnings day with a stock that had slipped about 7% over the past month and about 11% over the past quarter, despite trading on a single digit P/E and a wide gap to one popular fair value estimate. The headline today is simple. Profitability is holding up, with trailing net profit margin at 12.7% and earnings over the last year reported higher than the prior period, yet the share price has barely budged, closing at just under S$1. Love the solid...

GuocoLand shares closed at SGD2.17 after a weak month where the stock slipped around 4%. The fresh full year numbers now ask whether that caution is justified. The headline is not revenue or earnings per share. It is the squeeze between a richer valuation and a stretched balance sheet. GuocoLand trades on a P/E of 25.4x while interest coverage is described as weak and recent results include a one off loss of SGD127.5m. The market is weighing that strain against an earnings profile that still...

ASL Marine Holdings shares have drifted lower in recent months, yet the latest full year numbers land with a different message. The stock closed at SGD0.295 on 28 August, even as net margin over the past year sat at 9.2% and earnings per share reached about SGD0.032 on a trailing basis. For a shipyard and marine services business long viewed as balance sheet heavy, this set of results puts the earnings line in the spotlight. Is SGX:A04 pricing in this earnings jump or ignoring the balance...

Central banks are tilting toward higher rates, cheaper liquidity and stricter rules, which puts cash-like investments under a harsh new spotlight. For investors, this can quietly reshape where short-term money feels safest and most rewarding, and missing that shift can leave you stuck on the sidelines. This article walks through three stocks exposed to these macro currents and explains why each might deserve a closer look right now. The three stocks that follow are just a starting sample, and...

It looks like Jardine Cycle & Carriage Limited ( SGX:C07 ) is about to go ex-dividend in the next four days. The...

Olam Group (SGX:VC2) has drawn fresh attention after reporting half year 2026 earnings, alongside a lower interim dividend and a separate special dividend, a combination that directly affects shareholder income expectations. The latest earnings release and dividend changes have come against a choppy backdrop for Olam Group's stock, with the share price falling 16.39% over the past week and 26.62% over the past month, yet still showing a 7.37% year-to-date share price return and a 6.09% total...

Thomson Medical Group stock barely moved into these results, flat over the past week and only slightly higher over the past month, yet the latest numbers tell a more uncomfortable story. For a healthcare operator often framed as a long term recovery play, the headline this time is the deepening loss. Full year revenue came in at about S$426.6m on a trailing basis, but the group still reported a net loss of about S$29.7m and stayed unprofitable from continuing operations. The market is...

Micro-Mechanics (Holdings) stock has been quietly grinding higher in recent weeks, yet today’s Q4 print gives investors a much clearer reason to pay attention. Revenue for the quarter came in at about S$21.6m and net profit reached roughly S$5.3m, which feeds into a trailing net margin of 21.1%. That profitability, together with a trailing P/E of 24.4x that sits below both industry and peer averages, turns this release into a question of time horizon. Short-term traders will focus on the...

Chuan Hup Holdings just watched its share price close at SGD0.24, leaving the stock down over the past week and month, even as the latest full year numbers told a more upbeat story. The company posted trailing twelve month net earnings growth of 16.9% and a net margin of 40.4%, which is high for a property related business. Yet the stock still trades on a P/E of 22.8x while sitting far below a discounted cash flow estimate of fair value. Is Chuan Hup Holdings a rare mispriced asset or just an...
