SGX share price not doing too favourably recently, likely due to the low daily securities total trading value and the 3 pennies saga.. SGX has been putting lots of efforts to boost securities trading liquidity and derivatives volume, hopefully the share price will outperform in the mid-long term.

I would pick now if I have the  cash.
More M& A and collaboration effort to come!
Perhaps you might want to research more on the global effect of darkpool on formal exchanges like LSE and the exchanges' strategy aganist the darkpool.

Is it a good time to pick SGX at 7.23 as I noticed from past trend it will move up to 7.60 + below moving back again.
Any advice on this?

LSE Said in Talks With Singapore Exchange on Clearing Platform
London Stock Exchange Group Plc (LSE) is in talks with Singapore Exchange Ltd. to provide technology to clear cash equities for Southeast Asia?s biggest bourse operator, three people familiar with the matter said.
A deal would see LSE?s MillenniumIT unit implement a securities-processing platform for SGX, according to the people, who asked not to be identified as the talks are private. SGX isn?t planning to use MillenniumIT for derivatives clearing and the companies aren?t discussing a merger or a stake purchase, the people said.
An agreement would mark another link between the exchanges after they introduced trading in the largest and most active stocks on each others? markets. LSE, which bought Colombo-based MillenniumIT in 2009, is seeking to increase revenue from technology and clearing to offset declining volumes.
An e-mail from LSE?s press office said the London-based exchange wouldn?t comment on speculation. Joan Lew and Carolyn Lim, spokeswomen at SGX, didn?t immediately return calls and an e-mail seeking comment.
MillenniumIT already provides clearing technology for the Argentina Central Securities Depositary and trading systems for Norway?s Oslo Bors, according to statements on its website. LSE is the majority owner of LCH.Clearnet Group Ltd., the world?s largest swap clearinghouse.
SGX Chief Executive Magnus Bocker is trying to boost equity trading volumes that averaged about S$1.5 billion ($1.2 billion) a day this year, a 37 percent decline from 2007, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
SGX earned S$54.4 million in revenue from securities clearing in the three months ended Sept. 30, a 17 percent increase from the same period a year earlier, according to a regulatory filing. Derivatives revenue climbed 16 percent to S$51.7 million.
 
 
A NEW financial reporting standard (FRS) affecting the consolidation of financial statements will become effective for annual periods beginning on or after Jan 1, 2014, the Singapore Exchange (SGX) reminded investors yesterday.
The new standard, FRS 110, issued by the Accounting Standards Council, could change the entities that consolidated into the group's consolidated financial statements.
" FRS 110 . . . makes control the basis for determining the entities to be included in consolidated financial statements. More entities will be included in the consolidated financial statements if the issuer is able to establish control over them," SGX said in a mailer, sent via its investor education portal My Gateway, yesterday.
" This means the assets, liabilities, income, and expenses of these 'investees', or subsidiaries, will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements as if they were part of the issuer group, likely affecting the final figures," SGX's report added.
SGX had a decent start to the year with 1QFY14 net profit up 24% y-o-y (+5% q-o-q, based on reported net profit) to SGD92m
Average daily turnover (ADT) in the securities market was stable y-o-y but down 16% q-o-q to SGD1.3bn
Meanwhile, derivative volume posted strong y-o-y growth (+36% y-o-y)
Our earnings forecasts and SGD8.10 FV (23x CY14EPS) are unchanged1QFY14 results in line
SGX?s 1QFY14 net profit of SGD92m (+24% yo-y +5% q-o-q) was within our and consensus expectations, accounting for 25% of our and consensus full-year net profit estimates
Higher clearing fee, better derivative volume drive y-o-y profit growth
Y-o-y, while average daily turnover (ADT) in the securities market was broadly stable at SGD1.3bn, securities revenue rose 15%
Average clearing fee increased to 3.2bps from 2.7bps a year ago, as the proportion of capped trades fell to 35% from 46% in 1QFY13, with institutions trading a broader range of stocks and retail participation rising
Turnover velocity, however, was weaker at 47% (1QFY13: 51% 4QFY13: 55%)
Meanwhile, derivatives revenue was up 16% y-o-y as total traded volume jumped 36% y-o-y to 26.4m contracts, led by the FTSE China A50 futures, Nikkei 225 futures and options, and iron ore swaps
Q-o-q, revenue fell 9% reflecting weaker ADT (-16% q-o-q) and derivative volume (-16% q-o-q)
Expenses broadly under control (+6% y-o-y -6% q-o-q)
Management continued to guide for FY14 operating expenses of SGD320m-330m (FY13: SGD300m)
Technology-related capital expenditure is expected be around SGD35m-40m
As expected, SGX declared an interim DPS of 4 cents (1QFY13: 4 cents)
We are forecasting FY14 total DPS of 31 cents (FY13: 28 cents), based on a net payout ratio of 90%
We are maintaining our SGD8.10 FV, which is based on target CY14 P/E of 23x (a 10% discount to average P/E of 25x)
