It happened to me once some time ago too...
  I had unknowingly submitted my liquidation order twice...
    I only realised after 5.05 pm, but luckily Phillip has
            the script to lend the next day under their SBL service,
                    so the problem was solved.
because i didnt know abt the mistake until after market close my agent called me up and check :(

Buying in tomorrow is no use. It is 1 day too late becuase you have no scrips to deliver on due date.
But if you think that Cosco will shoot up on T + 3, you may consider buying in to cover your loss, if any.
For me, my counter  was UOB. It went down initially, so I thought can make. But gunna plucked when it shoot up on
T + 3 because of the US debt deal agreement.
it's better that u buy back urself....cos u know what prices u buy.... if u let sgx buy back they will buy back maybe a few bit higher than the closing price....

thanks for the reply...
so in this cosco case....better to let SGX buy in at T+3 right...
cos whole Singapore think it will tank ...
cos i read at poems...borrowing their shares cost additional 10% fees $^& #%

No fine for naked short. Happened to me last week on another counter. Not sure your broker allows you to sell first and borrow later
SGX will buy-in on T + 3 at 2 bids higher than the market price or closing price of previous trading day whichever is higher.  So pray the price goes down.
sifu risktaker..so what should i do?
tmr at open market buy back or what? 1k fine sian leh :(

1k SGX fine. plus profit/loss upon buying back. the only way is to hope tmr it tanks, then u can minimise loss.

Roti, that announcement was posted on sgx's website. Already made public.
drop in profit is bad....
missed estimates is even worse.... from The Edge: Sembcorp Marine (SCMN.SI), the world’s second largest rig builder, posted a worse-than-expected 15% fall in second quarter net profit, despite stronger margins.
most probably drop to 5.13-5.15.... congrats gaecia!

This order will bring to six the total number of new jackup rigs the Company will have under construction with the Jurong Shipyard.

master gaecia..
like i said.. the result turns out to be so so..
8% drop in profit ? is tat bad? well, it's not good :)
anyway it might drop to 5.2? i think the support is still at 5.15 if the 5.3 is broken..
with the 5cents dvd.. the drop will be limited..
ofc, the up will also be limited..
