Singapore Equities Could Gain From 'Virtuous Cycle of Investor Interest' Beyond STI -- Market Talk

1005 GMT - Singapore equities could gain from a "virtuous cycle of investor interest," says OCBC Investment Research's Carmen Lee in a note. The stock market's new iEdge Singapore Next 50 Index provides a way for investors to track the performance of the 50 largest companies outside the city-state's benchmark Straits Times Index. The strategist expects fund managers to begin adopting the gauge as a basis for new funds or to develop cost-effective vehicles for investors who are interested in non-STI companies. Singapore equities beyond the usual blue-chip names could therefore receive boosts in liquidity and valuations, she says. OCBC's preferred pick in the iEdge Next 50 include Sheng Siong Group, Parkway Life REIT and CapitaLand India Trust. (megan.cheah@wsj.com)
