SIA has been supporting the price by buying back its shares when  the price plunged  after a disappointing Q4.  OCBC issued the following report last week:
 
Singapore Airlines: Operating statistics fall across the board
    Singapore Airlines (SIA) reported its Jan 2012 operating statistics.
The parent           
    airline's passenger capacity (ASK) grew 3.8% YoY while its passenger
traffic (RPK)     
    gained a smaller 2.4% YoY, resulting in passenger load factor (PLF)
falling to             
    77.0%, compared to 78.1% in Jan 2011. SilkAir's RPK again gained a
strong 13.2% YoY   
    but it recorded an even faster ASK growth of 13.7% YoY. Thus,
SilkAir's PLF also         
    fell to 76.2%, lower than the 76.5% in Jan 2011. SIA Cargo's freight
capacity (AFTK) 
    fell 8.5% YoY but its freight traffic (FTK) contracted by 12.8% YoY.
SIA Cargo's         
freight load factor (FLF) fell to 58.5%, which is also the first time
that it               
    dropped below 60% since Apr 2009, from 61.4% in Jan 2011. We maintain
our fair value 
    estimate of S$10.85/share and HOLD rating on SIA. (Eric Teo

Singapore Airlines overall load factor slip 2.4 points in January to 65.5 per cent compared to 67.9 per cent a year ago due to the Lunar New Year holidays which was in January this year compared to February in 2011. Its very tough for SIA. Fuel prices look like going to stay high with the middle east tensions, and increasing competition from budget airlines, and TigerAir? It's just a little kitten that nvr grows up. Can SIA hit $11 and abv again?
This is a very stubborn [strong]  counter.
Despite all the bad news, weak advance booking for the next few months and filling lesser seats[news from the new paper]
price doesnt drop but climb steadily.
Wats up SIA?
Good luck bro.

Lol... Mostly, they are neither ethical nor unethical... 
    And they may believe fervently in their own analysis too.
        Just like. if you can do a good analysis with proper terminology,
                  I am sure many will also lap up your views too, with jaws hanging... lol...

You can not call them fools or nuts, or anything bad...
    They are simply " chari makan" (making a living by analysing)...
              Everyone and anyone is free to analyse stocks and the market,
                      or make market commentaries...

Kim Eng Research is looking for retail investors to carry their baby, TP $14.40! Some of these analysts are not ethical - they should not print something out of this world.
I am puzzled how SIA can maintain high profitability vis-a-vis other intl airlines that incurred operating losses and especially when the Global Aviation Industry is in recession.
Somebody say Govt is subsidising SIA thru the special tax concession on new aircraft purchases that's why SIA keep buying new planes and make money reselling old ones. Don't quite understand this part. But since Temasek owns 56% of SIA they can do that but it is not sustainable.
Cheering going to break 10.6 liao.. hurray.........huat ahh.....
