Year End Special Offer! And then, there are left with four of them. With the delisting of Jardine Strategic from SGX in April 2021, the four affiliated members of the Jardine Matheson group remains in Straits Times Index (STI) – HongKong Land, Dairy Farm, Jardine Matheson Holdings and Jardine C&C. These four “Hong Kong Heavenly Kings” had dominated STI for years and are all part of the Jardine Matheson Group. Recently, a Lifetime Member has requested me to do a research on Jardine C&C share price, which I will gladly do so in this article. Previously, I had written an article on HongKong Land.

Buying a private property can have different considerations from buying HDB flats. Unlike HDB flats which are commonly referred to by their HDB estates, private properties are typically classified by their regional area and districts: Core Central Region (CCR), Rest of Central Region (RCR) and Outside Central Region (OCR). Every quarter, URA releases real estate statistics and the performance of the different regions (also known as market segments) For 2Q2021, condominium prices increased by 1.1% for CCR, 0.1% for RCR and 1.9% from the previous quarter. This continues the trend of rising property prices seen during the pandemic. Whether you are upgrading from an HDB flat or a first-time private property buyer, there’s what you need to know about these district classifications. Read Also:

The Straits Times Index added just 3 points at 3,083.85; Wall St’s all-time highs had little or no effect here; Daily turnover sank after Tuesday’s portfolio rebalancing; Poor Friday US jobs report could be positive for US stocks; Jardine group among STI’s worst performers; Yangzijiang is the STI’s best performer; SGX announced its SPAC listing rules; Proxy adviser for SPH’s restructuring plan said benefits outweigh costs In an uninspiring week, 3 features stood out The week that just passed was notable for three reasons, two relating to the local market and the third to Wall Street.

This article has been updated with new information. Additional reporting by Jorinda Hsu. Introduced in September 1998 to curb and ease peak hour jams, Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) was an enhancement of its predecessor, the Area Licensing Scheme (ALS), which was launched in 1975 to target reducing traffic congestion in the Central Business District. Today, ERP is used to manage road congestion by charging drivers passing through ERP gantries during operational hours. The aim – though not necessarily the result – is for drivers to use alternative routes, travel outside ERP hours or take alternative forms of transport to avoid ERP charges. Here’s a guide to all the gantries in Singapore, their operational hours, and the exact charges. Complete List Of ERP Gantry Loc

It has been more than a year since Singapore went into Circuit Breaker on 7th April 2020. During Circuit Breaker, the supermarkets were filled with people as we all rushed to get essentials for our stay-home period. Eventually, the “kiasu-ness” faded, and we continue to get our groceries as usual. This year, we are back in our homes again for Phase 2 (Heightened Measures). Compared to last year, we are allowed more mobility and access to retail options. Regardless, the intention of having stricter safe distancing measure in place is to reduce our exposure to COVID-19. As most of us have started to get used to food delivery, we can do the same for groceries shopping by ordering online. For a reasonable delivery fee, groceries will be delivered to our doorstep. We no longer need to carry

While everyone is busy looking at the US market tonight, I am writing about STI ETF. While everyone is raving about S&P 500 rising from the dead, here I am writing about STI ETF which is trying to go lower everyday. To start off, I don’t disagree in investing in US markets now. In fact, I encourage it. But one must make the purchase with the mindset that “this could be a permanent loss of capital” (Atas sentence cause I watch
