Tuesday, August 28, 2012, 12:02 PM Singapore investors familiar with EWS may be interested in an ETF covering small cap stocks there, EWSS. Getting little notice since its January launch, EWSS has gained 19.6%, outperforming its better-known cousin by more than 700 bps. More than 45% of the fund's assets are in REITs, giving it - like EWS - heavy exposure to finance and real estate. Comment! [Global & FX, Quick Ideas]
Tuesday, July 17, 2012, 3:06 AM Singapore’s export growth unexpectedly quickened in June as pharmaceutical shipments rebounded. Non-oil domestic exports rose 6.8%, up from 3.2% in May and beating consensus of 2%. Comment! [Global & FX]
Wednesday, June 20, 2012, 4:01 AM Singapore, Hong Kong and Taiwan are likely to take Asia's biggest economic hit in the event of a Grexit or a eurozone collapse, writes Credit Suisse economist Robert Prior-Wandesforde, as those are the region’s most open or export-dependent economies. A Grexit could knock 2.2-2.3 percentage points off of GDP, while a eurozone implosion would shave off 4.6-6.7%. 3 Comments [Global & FX]
Friday, June 8, 2012, 6:54 AM Singapore's economy is expected to remain restrained for the rest of the year against the backdrop of subdued global growth, the Monetary Authority of Singapore said yesterday, though "domestic consumption and investment spending will provide an important buffer." GDP will likely grow 1-3%. Inflation outlook unchanged at 3.5-4.5%. Comment! [Global & FX]
Friday, February 17, 2012, 2:16 AM Singapore's exports fell in January for the first time in three months, sliding a larger-than-expected 2.1% (ex-oil) as the Chinese New Year holiday shortened the working month and as Europe's ongoing debt woes cut into demand. Exports to Europe were down 14.5%. Comment! [Global & FX]
