Whether it is multimedia and text through the web or the traditional newspaper, SPH has a monopoly in conveying of information. Does not matter which media, there is one and only one SPH.

Good insights.
It is true that in Singapore, advertisers and agencies are very old fashioned. They mostly still prefer to stick to traditional media. Only a small fraction of the advertising budget goes to online media.
However, for the rest of the world, even Malaysia, the trend is towards online media. It will only a matter of time before the shift starts to happen in Singapore.
Spending on online media will slowly grow in Singapore but it will not kill traditional media.

It appears that many investors are concerned that SPH is losing to the internet. In the first place they are not only aware of this but are making notable investments in this area. Secondly advertisers still prefer to display their advertisements on print. Thirdly public preference especially amongst the breadwinner the elderly and the vernacular prefer to read their foreign and local news in print. I do not forsee and serious changes in the forseeable future especially as they are the only dominant media group here. More important as the economy is improving I see their profits will continue on the uptrend.

It will not catch up in Singapore as it is never fun reading online especially with a greying population. Just see the electronic books that fail to take off in Schools even with the young. Not practical.  |

Why do you think SPH current focus is in the Internet? Didn't you notice the large number of SPH related websites that have sprouted out over the past 3 years? But I think print media will most likely co-exist with the online media in Singapore. Afterall, there is only one big media player in Singapore. I doubt there will be another that will rival SPH.

Any one sees the internet posing a serious threat to this counter? Last heard, a number of American news publishers were badly affected. If the same happened to SPH, its fat dividends may need to be cut significantly - never mind whether its Board consists of former ministers, members of parliament or civil servants. |

not in the near term. Singaporeans enjoy reading their news from newspapers in the toilet. haha. Stable readership and rising advertising expenditures as the S'pore economy improves will drive the reveneu and earning of SPH.

Agree with that. i keep for long with expectation of about 5% return (Price + Div).

as long as it is spare cash, do not worry too much about price after XD. Have been getting good dividends for many years - higher than putting it in fixed deposits. Got in at $3.71 today... |

As usual the share price will drop after XD, and it apply to all counters, for eg SIA Engrg(Today XD it drop 7 cents).
So not to worry, the share price will goes up before the XD date..(SIA Eng shareprice went up last Thurday from 2.85 to 2.97 on this Wed), the only thing that might need to pay attention is DOW ..
Just my view only

i m just afraid it might drop alot after XD.. now still got dividend to support.. |

Just my 2 cents worth. I'm sure SPH has already done their homework by bidding such a hugh sum for the property. I also agree that the market has over reacted. Even if after XD the price drops, u would already have the dividend to buffer your loss. In my own opinion it's a good buy now after the sharp drop in price. CHEERS!!!

still can't understand why SPH paid such a high price for Clementi Mall. Is it really such a good potential
With the price they paid, the rental will has to be around $16 ~ $18 psf. Almost like the rental price paid for shops in Orchard |
