Seems like Singtel is depending more and more on overseas earning to boost its profit....
I've seen some of my colleagues with iPhones. It is really quite a cool device.
If Singtel got an exclusive deal, that would be good news for it.
On the other hand, the local market is already so saturated and many people are already locked into their respective telco-contracts, it may not make that much of a difference.

Agreed! Sold all my holding this morning bet $3.96-3.97...will be back again to support when shortist reappear cause Singtel's long term fundamental/outlook still intact...go for kopi now.
Oh yes, sell on rumors or news! One thing i know for sure is that Apple have never given any exclusive rights to their products!!!!!
One advantage that SIngTel has is that they've the 'Service Bundle' to go with iPhone which may be cheaper than the Retailer Stores. Cheers!
Thx! tanglinboy.
So it's "more or less" in Singtel's bag already lah, though not confirm yet. Frankly, why iPhone is so hot even months after Apple first launch it? I guess its because of its iconic iPod product.
So brand is an important factor for products to be successful, hence, Apple chose Singel which represent a strong regional brand name plus it has the largest mobile subscribers outside in Asia outside China. The timing to launch the product is equally important for Singtel, that's why it chosen Sep08 to coincide with world's first F1 night race....so thoughtful!
The challenge now is whether Singtel can broker these exclusive right for its associate/sister company across the whole Pan Asian counter?
Right on....overall situation is very uncertain...
My view is better trade with care, esp with the uncertainty political situation in our neighbour country. I meant not ROC Basically Buy in Weak and Sell in Strength still the pariot cry in the stock market. Cheers.

Where you got the news from, pls share leh! This type of news though should not have much material impact on its earning, but believe will still influence share price to the upside like the recent announce of broadcast right to champion league and F1 race sponsorship. Plus dow up 265pts last Fri, it should chiong to $4 on Mon. liao. Hehe...still vested some here.

iPhone?
This kind of news/rumour can "cheong" the counter a lot!
Where is the info from?
I heard that Singtel has got exclusive rights to the sell the iPhone?
This will boost up its sales greatly locally.
Alrite SingTel had been dancing and singing well no doubt! Now the new challenge is whether SingTel can orchestrate and form its own Orchestra and perform harmoniously in the future? Cheers!
Indeed! This one is lively and it has a class of its own in the current market turmoil. Analysts have mentioned that Telco is not only defensive, it is not expected to be influence by this crisis. Moreover, Singtel has quite a strong "war chest"! Cheers and stay invested.
singtel seems to have a life on its own...
ex-malaysian premier mahathir once quipped: "that singtel can really sing and tell (a good story)"
in retort, ex-ceo hsien yang said " not only we can sing and tell well, we can do a dance too."
haha... never underestimate singapore's corporate jewel.
Already take profit yesterday liao, although it's 10cts lower than today's high. Now looking to support this counter again if shortist appear to run it down....hehe!
Dark cloud if close 3.91 or lower.
Oh dear! Now it is the chicken or the egg.....which is 1st?????

Hoho! ten4one, i didn't suggest using rubber band in the first place hor! But since u wanna refer to it, i suggest for own safety, u use more or ticker ones, so u can hold on longer in what ever position u want for short/long term. Cheers!
Hahaha Farmer, Of course the rubber band could be lengthened or tightened to suit your purpose. Either ways you're stretching the rubber band. You could even use it to strap cash too! But, one big BUT - it is designed for short term usuage only. Not a good tool for longer time-frame!!!! Cheers!
After the crucial time of 1600, STI seems going well with plus sign and SingTel halted at 3.91 with good volumn. Look like I can wait for another day leow. Alamah violated by hit-n-run principle, with confidence he he. Cheers.
