SIA

Yes,I ve sold away all my holding and shorted a few more.

No,i m not trying to instill fear at all.

As investor [more than 10 years] turn shortist,i ve lost all faith and confidence in SIA [Airline industry]


If you ve noticed,everything affect the airline industry eg SARS,Volcano Ashes,fuel price up,economy crisis etc.

Not to mention those fierce competition from budget air.

Yesterday news reported that even Airasia and Jetstar have fare better than our national pride.

Yes,Temasek Holding has majority shares but it also has many other involement in other companies,

how much can they save if economy crisis comes in full force?

As a heavy weight,when it falls,it will be hard and when it moves it will be slow.

Sell and put your money in other sectors.

I must admit that their dividend payout were very good before,but now?

Dont have to believe what i said,just dont be caught when the situation turns.

(AIRA) and Qantas Airways Ltd. (QAN)’s Jetstar overtook full-service carriers in a brand-reputation survey as more passengers in the region turned to cheaper options amid a global economic slowdown. Singapore Airlines Ltd. (SIA) and Cathay Pacific Airways Ltd. (293), among the world’s 10 biggest carriers by market value, were ranked below the two low-cost air-travel operators, according to the report compiled by Nielsen Holdings NV (NLSN) and research firm Campaign Asia released today. Global airline profits are set to fall in 2012 by more than half to $3 billion from $7.9 billion last year, according to the International Air Transport Association, as recessions in the U.K., Spain and other European countries damp demand and erode gains from lower fuel prices. “It’s an economic reality,” Therese Glennon, managing director of consumer insights for Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa at Nielsen, said in an interview. “As the demand for budget travel increases, as the economic situation deteriorates, you see a lot of these bigger airlines adjusting their business models.” Nielsen asked 400 respondents in each of 12 Asia-Pacific countries where it conducted the survey to name the top two brands they thought were most trusted or had the best reputation in 14 categories, including travel and leisure, it said. Cathay in May predicted “disappointing” first-half earnings. The company has pared passenger-capacity growth, cut flights to North America and Europe this year, imposed a hiring freeze on ground staff and offered cabin crew unpaid leave. “While we cannot comment on the validity of this specific survey, being unaware of its exact methodology, we can share that for more than 65 years, Cathay Pacific has been serving travelers from around the world,” the airline said in an e- mailed response to questions. Unexpected Loss Singapore Air, which posted an unexpected fourth-quarter loss of S$38.2 million ($30 million), started a low-cost carrier that completed its first flight last month. Nicholas Ionides, a spokesman for Singapore Air, declined to comment because he hasn’t seen the report. Other full-service airlines that were ranked lower include Qantas, Australia’s largest carrier that forecast last month annual profit may fall as much as 91 percent, and Korean Air Lines Co., South Korea’s biggest flier that slumped to a surprise first-quarter loss. Samsung Electronics Co. (005930), Apple Inc. and Sony Corp. (6758) were the top three brands in the survey.

Curious, how do you know if SIA is undervalue, care to share?

SIA quite undervalued right now. Might be good price to load up and sell in 2 months..

any views????

 

haha u got 1million shares? at great discount? wat is ur average price u bought? the lowest i can see is abt 0.22 which is at the peak of crisis n u managed to eye tat particular price or ur average is actually much much higher?

anyway Temasek had screwed up many many time in terms of their shares purchase (creative, chartered semicond, city bank, etc) n this is so well known in the stock mkt so dont use Temasek as reference....cheers

maybe the price can go up true but there r many better ones when mkt chiong, n worst still the volume is so small u cant even sell ur 1 million shares in same day.

another way for the price to chiong up is shares consolidation i.e 10 : 1, (from 0.375 to 3.75) by doing so it can qualify for institutes purchase.   Then probably Temasek can buy some more otherwise Temasek cant even buy stock like 0.375 price......sad.

only shorties will be interested in this counter, not institute players.   so it is speculative n not investible stock.

SIA, Keppel Corp are too expensive and limited upside. The stock had reach it lowest bottom     compared to CapitailLand,   Keppel Corp,   Keppel Land,   Capitalmallasia,   NOL,   SIA, Tiger Air, SMRT, this is the only Temasek owned company that is not affected by the rising oil price and own policy of property cooling measures..         1st Day Closing Price SGD7.850
