There will be 2 massive IPOs the next 2 weeks. Thai Beverage listing in Singapore on 25 May and Bank of China listing in Hong Kong on 1 Jun. BOC could raise up to US$9 b (S$14.3 b). Thai Beverage plans to raise $1.27 b to $1.78 b. It is set to be the biggest IPO here since SingTel raised over $4 b in 1993.
Rather than benefitting the market, these IPOs could suck up liquidity and cause other stock prices to fall.
Down on DOW, then look to East Asia, like BOC ipo in HK for a change. SGX maybe down but there is stock that is oso recoverying, SGX China related stocks is likely to take a cue from BOC ipo offer which is surely very hot and over subscribe. It not a small sum US$9.8bil (S$15.5 billion). This deal oredi attracted more than US$ 30billion from institutional order in just two days oni. Temasek +12investors hv pledged US$2.6billion and yet d real road show hv not begin yet and when it date to announce it. U will know why look to East asia for a change.
