To be honest the valuation is on very high side.... but that doesnt mean goldman sac is above law ....and use this opportunity to crashed the trio....to benefit itself.... 国 有 国 法 ,家 有 家 法 .
SGX HAS BEEN DOING GOOD JOB ALONG UNTIL THEY ARE PRESSURED BY THE MEDIA AND SIAS. WHEN GOLDMAN SAC FORCE SELL THE TRIO SHARES.... SGX PRESSED THE PANIC BUTTON AS IT TRY TO PROTECT INVESTORS...BUT THE DESIGNATION OF THE 3 STOCKS IS NOT WELL THOUGHT MOVE.
As more information went public....it gets clearer and clearer that goldman sac is totally wrong..... and justice must be served......
Goldman supporter or whoever u r pls do not defend or trying to misled anymore because its silly....because they are suing goldman with evidence.....It really doesnt look good on u..

SOMEWHERE out there in Singapore, there is an investor who has a S$1.2 million windfall. The investor is one of 89,000 people owning S$68.3 million of unclaimed dividends and SingTel shares who could not be contacted despite the best efforts of the Singapore Exchange (SGX). Tomorrow, a website at www.sgx.com/mygateway will be launched for investors to check if they have unclaimed assets, using their NRIC number.
Unclaimed dividends come about when investors do not opt for them to be directly credited to their bank accounts. The dividend checks were mailed out but investors did not cash them for various reasons. Unclaimed SingTel shares and dividends were from the telco's 1993 initial public offering, where investors had signed up for but did not follow through by opening a Central Depository (CDP) account. Most investors have unclaimed dividends or shares of less than S$1,000, SGX said.

Malaysia summons Singapore envoy over spying reports
Malaysia's government summoned Singapore's high commissioner for talks on Tuesday, saying it was " extremely concerned" by media reports that the city-state helps Western intelligence agencies spy on its Southeast Asian neighbour.
Media reports citing documents leaked by former US National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden put Singapore, a key US ally, at the centre of a spy network that reportedly taps undersea cables in the region. " If those allegations are eventually proven, it is certainly a serious matter that the Government of Malaysia strongly rejects and abhors," Foreign Minister Anifah Aman said in a statement late on Monday.
" It cannot be over-emphasised that spying against a good friend and neighbour is unacceptable and goes against the true spirit of, and commitment to, good neighbourly relations." A souring of Singapore-Malaysia ties would worsen the fallout on US allies from spying accusations in Southeast Asia. Last week, Indonesia downgraded diplomatic ties with staunch US ally Australia following media reports that Canberra spied on President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and his wife.
Citing documents leaked by Snowden, Australia's Sydney Morning Herald said Singapore military intelligence helped US, British and Australian spy agencies harvest data passing through a major undersea cable called SEA-ME-WE 3 that is part-owned by SingTel.
SEA-ME-WE 3, which stands for Southeast Asia, Middle East and Western Europe, connects more than 30 countries, including China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, Britain and France.
SingTel declined to comment, while Singapore's defence ministry did not respond to queries, and its foreign affairs ministry did not immediately provide a comment.
Malaysia and Singapore, which separated in 1965 after a brief union in the years following independence from Britain, have close economic ties, but relations have sometimes been prickly.
They have quarrelled over building bridges across the Johor Strait, land reclamation, water supply and racial issues.
Relations have warmed since Mahathir Mohamad, Malaysia's outspoken former prime minister, stepped down in 2003 and Singapore has become a key investor in Malaysia's southern Iskandar Development Region.

The Standard & Poor?s 500 Index rose less than 0.1 percent to 1,802.75 at 4 p.m. in New York, after gaining as much as 0.3 percent. The Nasdaq Composite Index closed above 4,000 for the first time since 2000. The Stoxx Europe 600 Index declined 0.6 percent. The yield on Treasury five-year notes slid three basis points to 1.31 percent as the government?s auction of $35 billion in five-year notes attracted stronger-than-forecast demand. Europe?s 17-nation shared currency gained 0.4 percent to $1.3569 and the yen appreciated 0.4 percent to 101.34 per dollar. Oil dropped 0.4 percent to $93.68 a barrel.
Home prices in 20 U.S. cities rose by the most since February 2006 in the 12 months through September, indicating the housing market sustained progress even as borrowing costs climbed. Confidence among U.S. consumers unexpectedly declined in November to a seven-month low. More than $8 trillion has been added to the value of global equities this year, the biggest increase since 2009, as central banks took steps to shore up economies worldwide.
?This continues to be a strong market into the end of year,? Jason Cooper, a money manager who helps oversee $2.5 billion in South Bend, Indiana, at 1st Source Investment Advisors, said in a phone interview. ?I don?t think anybody would have guessed we?d be at the rate we are at today and I still believe there are people out there concerned that we can fall back down. If the market continues, those who are late to the game at some point have to make a decision to possibly go into the equity market.?
Stocks pared their gains in the final 30 minutes of trading as investors sold U.S. equities to mimic changes in MSCI indexes that are scheduled to take effect at the end the close today.
Apple Inc., Oracle Corp. and Exxon Mobil Corp. are among companies that face the biggest decrease in weighting in the MSCI rebalancing, according to Societe Generale SA.
Lennar Corp. and PulteGroup Inc. climbed at least 4.4 percent, leading a rally among homebuilders. Technology shares rose 0.4 percent as a group in the S& P 500. Apple climbed 1.8 percent. China Mobile Ltd.?s selling of iPhone will provide a tailwind to Apple?s 2014 earnings estimates, according to Peter Misek, an analyst with Jefferies LLC.
Tiffany Gains
Tiffany & Co. jumped 8.7 percent after profit topped analysts? estimates and the jeweler boosted its forecast. Jos. A. Bank Clothiers Inc. surged 11 percent after Men?s Wearhouse Inc. offered to buy the apparel company for about $1.54 billion.
The S& P 500 closed above 1,800 for the first time on Nov. 22, capping seven straight weeks of gains. The benchmark index is poised for its best annual performance since 1998, with an increase of 26.4 percent. The S& P 500 is trading for about 17 times its companies? reported earnings.
While the valuation is at the highest level since May 2010, it?s still below the multiples at the market?s two previous peaks, when the ratio reached 17.5 in October 2007 and 31 in March 2000, data compiled by Bloomberg show.
Fed Stimulus
Three rounds of Federal Reserve bond purchases have helped push the S& P 500 up 166 percent from a bear-market low in 2009.
Four out of five investors expect the Fed to delay a decision to begin reducing the stimulus until March 2014 or later, according to a Bloomberg Global Poll on Nov. 19.
Policy makers have been scrutinizing data to determine whether the economy is strong enough to withstand a reduction in their $85 billion a month in bond purchases.
The S& P/Case-Shiller index of property values advanced 13.3 percent after increasing 12.8 percent a month earlier. More applications for home construction were issued in October than at any time in the past five years, figures from the Commerce Department showed today. The agency postponed publishing housing-starts data due today to Dec. 18 because of a lapse in funding after a 16-day partial government shutdown last month.
Consumer Confidence
The Conference Board?s confidence index fell to 70.4 from a revised 72.4 a month earlier that was stronger than initially estimated, the New York-based private research group said today.
The median forecast in a Bloomberg survey of 78 economists called for a November reading of 72.6. The overall business activity index for mid-Atlantic region factories rose to 13 in November, according to the latest report from the Fed Bank of Richmond.
The S& P 500 will probably fall 10 percent in the next 12 months before rebounding to end the year at 1,900, according to Goldman Sachs Group Inc. The forecast from the New York-based firm implies about a 5 percent advance from today?s level. The 25 months since the S& P 500?s last 10 percent drop is the longest stretch without such a decline since 2007, according to S& P.
?It will be less smooth sailing,? David Kostin, the bank?s chief U.S. equity strategist, said on Bloomberg Television?s ?Market Makers? program. ?The likelihood is we will have something that will prompt a reduction -- a retreat in the market. But overall the market should be rising, and that?s because the U.S. economy will be getting better.?
Treasury Auction
Treasuries rose for a fourth day as the government?s auction of $35 billion in five-year notes attracted stronger- than-forecast demand as investors bet the Fed will keep short- term borrowing rates low.
The notes were sold at a yield of 1.340 percent, compared with a forecast of 1.347 percent in a Bloomberg News survey of nine of the Fed?s 21 primary dealers. The bid-to-cover ratio, which gauges demand by comparing total bids with the amount of securities offered, was 2.61 versus an average of 2.67 for the past 10 sales.
?It?s been one of the biggest beneficiaries of the expectation that the Fed is going to be lower for longer,? said Thomas Tucci, managing director and head of Treasury trading in New York at CIBC World Markets Corp. ?The economy isn?t at escape velocity and won?t be for some time.?Treasuries gained after the U.S. sale of $35 billion of five-year notes drew a lower-than-forecast yield.
The Treasury?s 10-year note yield fell two basis points to
2.71 percent.
Europe Stocks
Remy Cointreau SA led European shares lower after the maker of Remy Martin cognac said it expects a ?substantial? drop in annual earnings, while Hugo Boss AG postponed a profitability target.
More than three shares fell for every two that gained in the Stoxx 600, which closed yesterday within 0.2 percent of a five-year high reached on Nov. 18. Trading volumes were 22 percent above the 30-day average today, data compiled by Bloomberg show. The gauge has climbed 15 percent in 2013, headed for its best year since 2009.
Remy, Hugo
Remy lost 8.3 percent after posting first-half adjusted operating profit that declined 7.3 percent to 132.7 million euros ($179.5 million) on an organic basis. Hugo Boss, the German luxury-clothing maker controlled by buyout firm Permira Advisers LLP, fell 2.1 percent.
Repsol SA advanced 4.3 percent after the governments of Spain and Argentina reached a preliminary agreement to compensate the Madrid-based oil company for its stake in YPF SA.
The MSCI Emerging Markets Index slipped 0.5 percent. The Jakarta Composite Index sank 2.3 percent to an 11-week low and the rupiah slipped 0.4 percent versus the dollar to the weakest since March 2009. The government raised $190 million yesterday by selling dollar-denominated bonds to local investors, who submitted $294 million of bids, short of the $450 million goal, said Robert Pakpahan, the director general at the debt management office.
Emerging Markets
South Africa?s benchmark gauge slid 1.3 percent after a report showed the economy grew at the slowest pace in four years. The Hang Seng China Enterprises Index of mainland companies listed in Hong Kong decreased 0.8 percent, led by China Petroleum & Chemical Corp. as the government detained seven people for their role in in a deadly pipeline explosion.
The euro strengthened against 13 of its 16 major counterparts. The European Central Bank doesn?t see deeper disinflation, ECB Executive Board member Benoit Coeure said on CNBC today, after China?s central bank governor said the euro was important to his nation?s reserve management.
?Large central banks around the world are looking to diversify their dollar holdings, in part in favor of the euro,? said Neil Jones, head of European hedge-fund sales at Mizuho Bank Ltd. in London. ?When ECB members are doubting disinflation concerns and giving more upbeat growth expectations this also boosts the euro.?
West Texas Intermediate declined for a third day, losing 0.4 percent to $93.68 on projections that a report tomorrow will show U.S. crude inventories advanced for a 10th week.
The Energy Information Administration will probably say crude inventories rose 750,000 barrels last week, according to the median of 11 responses in a Bloomberg survey. Stockpiles of distillate fuel fell to a five-year low, the survey showed. Prices slipped yesterday after Iran and world powers reached an interim agreement on Nov. 24 to restrict the country?s nuclear program.

Nothing to worry. What has happened has happened. We always look forward to a brighter tomorrow.
There still so many big boys around who though badly beaten would seek ways to recover. Only way is to long more, since short cannot justify making much money to patch up the potential losses if they don't buy and buy up enough.
From here onwards, though the GS case (BLA case) might have an overhang, our markets will come back from the ashes that make up of the remains of many. Huat ah!! Cheers.
