Blue Chips

Thanks to everyone with such great response.

 

sure sure, let's load up the list! keke. was just typing off the top of my head, so invariably will miss out some. :)

another to put in: singpost. solid divvie company. and yeps, SPH is considered to be one of the most defensive counters.

 

  i think should add: Singtel, SIA

 

Just wanna highlight that SPH is consider under media/infocomm as oppose to Manu. This is a great blue chip company to consider for long term defensive investor...Cheers!

 

hi simck001,

generally, what's considered blue chips will be the "heavy weights" of the STI component stocks. These tend to be large cap companies, with years of good track record (defined as positive earnings year on year), high dividend yield. In the singapore context, more often than not you'll find temasek backing (scroll through the list of top 10 shareholders. hehe). they tend to be more pricey as well, since their NAVs are relatively high.

so companies such as:

finance: OCBC, DBS, UOB. Great eastern, SGX.

Props: Capland, KepLand. bukit sembawang, city dev.

multi ind: sembcorp, kepcorp, UIC, ST engg

TSC: labroy, NOL, SBS, SMRT

 manu: SPC, F&N, SPH, venture.

note list above is non-exhaustive. cheers! :)
