85c came in as expected for full year ....but not paying a special dividend do disappoint many investor .  ( esp when DBS give out so good angpow , I guess the young Wee really has to think harder now .....esp IF OCBC do come out w a special dividend )  OCBC is 28th morning ....let see. 40c is given in my view .....any extra ...even a 5c wld put UOB in bad light .  Awaiting patiently .

UOB just announced its results and despite a respectable 85cts final dividen ( $1.70 total ) representing 50% payout ratio and 5.8 % dividen yield , investors are clearly not happy and its share price is currently down almost 2% since market opens. Well , I guess DBS has set the bar too high . In todays environment , investors are expecting min 6.5% yield and nothing short of 55% payout ratio from the banks .  I expect OCBC to dish out 40 to 45cts final . Interesting to note that should OCBC pays out 45cts , its 85cts total dividen is half of UOB' s total . If that happens , their should price disparity should correspondingly adjust further . Expect UOB' s  management time to have a hard time in their forthcoming AGM whereas there will be smiling faces all round in DBS AGM . As for OCBC , most investors were smiling during last years AGM and the mood for this year will depend on what numbers being churned out on 28 Feb 24 . |

Well, if OCBC sees the rabid re-rating of DBS after the Bonus Issue, it can watch and learn and copy.  If it makes OCBC look cheaper and more affordable, more people may be willing to buy a lot or two.

To add further . DBS and UOB all time high is in Feb 2022 . OCBC all time high of $14.04 is in Apr 2018 , just before Trump announces trade war with China . OCBC current trading price today of $13.30 is same as its Feb 2022 levels ,  where DBS/UOB is at their ATH .

Echos, I agreed w you that OCBC will most likely NOt issue any bonus issue . ( there is no need for this )  More so , a possibility of a special dividend ...as it is really 20c or even 10c , to me it is great haha. A lot also depend on GE and BOS income .  UOB is closely hold by the Wee empire ( late Wee has cross holding into HarPar, UOL , etc ,,,these 2 are larger one) .  I really doubt the  younger Wee will issue any bonus at the current time . They are well known for their conservative stand , so many years then you see the recent VISA purchase . 85 + a special is more likely in my view ( 15c/25C) ....again it is everybody guess.  Whatever I am expecting a good set of results from UOB and OCBC ( esp OC)  Happy investing.

OCBC shares outstanding  4.49b DBS shares outstanding      2.58b UOB shares outstanding    1.69b I doubt OCBC will declare a bonus issue as its share outstanding at 4.49b is already the largest amongst the 3 almost twice of DBS and 3 times of UOB . This is because the share has  undergone  stock split , rights issues , and frequent scrip dividen schemes over the past 15 years . Bonus issue will dilute its share price further . DBS after this round of 1 for 10 will see its shares increasing to 2.84b . Its possible for UOB to go for bonus issue or stock split as its shares outstanding is lowest amongst the 3 . Even a 1 for 1 stock split will only increase it to 3.38b shares . Not sure why the Management prefers to keep it at current levels . .

Suddenly with the removal of the CPF Special Account after age 55, the Local Banks and their 6+ percent dividends become a lot more attractive, ie compared to the 2.5% yield of the Ordinary Account. | ||||

Wow congratulations to Singapore banks holding ...... HUAT HUAT HUAT  DBS 33.70 , UOB 29.10 and OCBC 13.20.....and are still powering our STI just above 3200 ..........how much more ?  1. If interest rate is to remain and have NO cut in March , our banks are going to benefit much.  Even a cut come 2H which wld not affect them as  rate are still high . 2. Fees and AUM are all at record high . NOT forgetting Visa integration etc are still adding $$ to them . **  DBS is again going to make $10B in 2024 as claim by CEO ......OCBC has mentioned additional $3B business from Southern China .  I think UOB is integrating the VISA Indo and Vietnam well into its profoolio  3, ALL 3 banks are having good payout ratio of aro 50% only ...and Tier capital are still high . WOULD NOT be surprise some special dividend coming up or end this year.  ***  the golden question is how much more DBS will run up till XB .....xd is about 0.54c , XB is about 10% of DBS share which is worth a cool $3k+  Haha so I guess base on valution we can see where DBS wld be and leading our STI . UOB will be givng out 85c ? on 22nd Feb .( $1.70) ....or plus a special dividend. Even wo any special D.......yield is already 5.8% , which I am expecting a special D.    OCBC wld be the big surprise if Q4 can pull in another record profit .....then we might expect a good angpow from Helen hehe Happy investing and awaiting .  Vested   |

Wow 20ct special div from OCBC is a very fat Ang Pow. Hope you Zhun Zhun.   I think likely to be 0.43 to 45ct max and no special div.   Gong Xi Fa Cai ! |
