SCI also go India leh.  They seem OK.  Anyway, the venerable Mr Gupta had said before that he was originally from there n speaks the language.  Maybe he' d be more familiar with where the booby traps n the speed bumps  n wld be able better positioned to  thread through the nooks and crannies?

Most of the times I agreed with Gupta.
But in his comment on moving capacity from China to India, I am quite skeptical. Moving to Taiwan, asean yes. But India not very sure, which industry is moving there?

The shrewd Gupta always knows a good deal the moment he sniffs it 10,000 miles away.......................... And, although the region is suffering from a China slowdown, supply chains are unlikely to change much in the short term. &ldquo It&rsquo s quite clear that the structural shift of trade away from China is a glacial process. People are not really moving capacity out of China. But If they have capacity outside of China, they are ramping it up. People who are looking at adding capacity outside of China are looking in the region to economies such as Thailand and India. Our clients are talking about building up incremental capacity in India,&rdquo Gupta says. Meanwhile, DBS is prepared to capture the move by companies to India should it materialise. The banking group is going to launch its Indian subsidiary on Mar 1 and implement a phygital strategy (digital and physical). DBS already operates a digibank in India. &ldquo We will start rolling out branches in Mumbai and Delhi and open more kiosks targeted at building our SME portfolio,&rdquo Gupta says. https://www.theedgesingapore.com/dbs-chief-sounds-cautious-note-expects-modest-growth-year ![]()   |

HK & China markets turned red after HSBC reported results below analysts expectations. And the red infection spread everywhere after that.

I was referring to Traders (not long-term/dividend investors).    Traders buy/sell/short on a daily basis following momentum/TA/or whatever.  So I can' t uinderstand why traders here are perturbed that NIM might not expand next quarter or analysts now lowering their 12-mth TPs. Since traders can' t really be interested in what happens in 3 mths, let alone in 1 year' s time.  That' s what I find incredulous. I' m a long-term dividend investor so I look at  fundamentals such as current and forward NIM, loan growth, nett profit, div payout, etc. But even I  can' t be borthered by analysts TPs since we all know they are as accuate as throwing the dice (even if they don' t have their own hidden agenda).    ![]()

Jus a comment ...NIM is important so is its ROE which is double digit n one of the highest which other bank wld envy . At the end of the day....its the total package result which in DBS case...good at the very least. Further one analyst revision of TP spell nothing ....others do and can increase the TP ....external factor can easily affect TP too. Time will tell ....:))

Maybank Kim Eng upgrade TP to SGD29.56 (COE 10.3%, 3% terminal), which still offers 17% upside. Maintain BUY on our top sector pick.

" Banking: Importance of Net Interest MarginsThe business of bank is to accept deposits and lend advances. Hence, it is very important to know the spread between them in order to judge a bank&rsquo s profitability and growth. Net Interest Margin (NIM) is the spread of the interest earned and the interest expended by the bank. A bank' s NIM is calculated as follows - its Net Interest Income divided by its average earning assets (which includes advances, investments, cash and balances with the RBI and call money). Thus, NIM is one of the key indicators that need to be watched while analysing banking stocks." ....... " NIM measures the effectiveness of a company' s investment decisions, particularly for financial institutions. ... For a bank, if the non-performing assets (NPAs) are rising, the interest earned would fall and the NIM will decline. In case the demand for savings increases relative to the demand for loans, the NIM will fall." ------------------------------------------------------------- As for the the Anayst Target price, I used it as a gauge.  What is important is the fact that they see it fit to lower the target price.  Which mean 2019  is expected to be not  as good as 2018.

Europe' s largest bank, HSBC, misses expectations in 2018 earnings
Published 3 Hours Ago Updated 7 Mins Ago    HSBC, Europe' s largest bank, on Tuesday delivered a financial report card that missed expectations on several fronts following a challenging fourth-quarter when markets globally experienced a sharp sell-off and reduced activity. The bank' s reported pre-tax profit for the whole of 2018 was $19.89 billion, 15.9 percent higher than the previous year. Reported revenue last year was $53.78 billion, 4.5 percent higher than 2017. The London-headquartered bank was expected to record a 23.8 percent jump in reported pre-tax profit to $21.26 billion for 2018, according to forecasts compiled by Refinitiv. Revenue for the year was projected to be 6.28 percent higher at $54.674 billion, data by Refinitiv showed.  
HSBC said it will pay a full-year dividend of $0.51 per share, but did not announce a new share buy-back plan as some analysts had hoped. The bank' s Hong Kong-listed shares fell by around 2 percent after the lunch break. Other financial metrics that analysts and investors were watching:

Despite missing forecasts, HSBC Group Chief Financial Officer Ewen Stevenson said he was " very pleased" with the latest set of results. He added that the difficult trading environment at the end of 2018 resulted in lower fourth-quarter revenue compared to the previous three months. Stevenson was referring to the sharp sell-off in global marketsin the fourth-quarter last year, which led to trading revenue losses in many banking groups. " We were very much hit by adverse markets in November and December, which meant that we saw revenue drop by about a billion dollars relative to [the third-quarter]," Stevenson told CNBC' s Joumanna Bercetche on Tuesday. The lower-than-expected revenue growth also resulted in HSBC missing its positive " jaws" target for 2018. The jaws ratio is positive when revenue grows faster than costs. HSBC' s jaws for the year was minus 1.2 percent. " We were very disappointed to have missed that jaws target for the year," the CFO said, adding that the bank will continue to work toward achieving a positive jaws ratio in 2019. Outlook in Europe and AsiaOn business outlook, Stevenson said HSBC is " very well-prepared" for whatever the outcome is on Britain' s plan to leave the European Union. He noted that the bank had previously talked about moving up to a thousand employees to France &mdash including new hires and transfers from London &mdash and will continue to evaluate the circumstances surrounding Brexit. The CFO also said the bank &mdash which derives much of its revenue in Asia, particularly in Greater China &mdash hasn' t seen any " dramatic slowdown" in its business as a result of the U.S.-China trade tensions. Even then, some investors are concerned about the headwinds facing HSBC. Kenny Wen, wealth management strategist at Hong Kong-based financial services firm Everbright Sun Hung Kai, said before the bank' s earnings release that he was not in a rush to buy HSBC shares. " Even though the dividend yield is attractive ... there are several headwinds ahead in the market," Wen told CNBC' s " Squawk Box" on Tuesday. He cited Brexit, slowing global growth and the U.S.-China trade fight as key challenges that HSBC has to navigate. " A high portion of revenue and profit come from Hong Kong and China. So, if global or China GDP slows down ... it will hurt market sentiment as well as earnings growth. And don' t forget the trade war between Washington and Beijing," added Wen. " I think given the headwinds ahead, HSBC shares will just be weight-traded unless we have a very positive results today." |

Why are all the traders here bothered abt the NIM and analysts lowering the target price? Even if traders really believe in analysts target price, then they shd be very bullish with DBS since all the analyst target prices published today are in the High $28s. Which means still lots room for the stock price to go up, so traders shd all be selling eveything they own including their kitchen sinks to  load up this stock . Really incredulous.     |

Haha, brother.  I fully agree.  Goodied in health trickling to medical professionals.  This is a pt h' ve been sharing with friends.  Also, $$$ channelled to edusave fattening those providing enrichment courses for parents?  Doubt if it' s gonna be of significant value adds.  So, some get lots of goodies.  Others foot the bill when GST n other taxes as well as  other (unjustifiable) price increases.  Don' t forget, retirees don' t need to celebrate bicentinnial (if I spell wrongly it' s bcos I' m one of those unfortunate ones).  Sometimes I wonder if we' re playing the Sheriff of Nottingham .....
