The Straits Times Index (STI) ended the day 2.9% lower at 3,061.49, after trading between 3,057.62 and 3,100.85. Decliners outnumbered gainers 432 to 96. A total of 1.76 billion shares worth $ 2.15 billion changed hands, giving an average of $ 1.23 per share for the entire market. The Nikkei 225, as well as the Shanghai and Shenzhen Composite Indices also saw declines of over 1%. The KOSPI Index dipped 0.6%, while the Hang Seng Index slipped over 2%. Noble Group , The Stratech Group, Artivision Technologies , China Sports International , and Golden-Agri Resources  were among the most actively traded counters. Among the decliners, Noble Group plummeted 11% to 50.5 cents. Shares in the commodity trader plunged amid a rout in raw material prices after China devalued its currency. Courts Asia plunged 7% to 32.5 cents. The electrical products and furniture retailer announced that it has been unsuccessful in its bid to acquire Courts Mauritius. This was in spite of it being informed by the Special Administrators as the preferred bidder, with no other bidders being considered. Keppel Corporation  shed 2% to $ 7.30. The conglomerate announced on Tuesday after market close that its subsidiary Keppel Shipyard won contracts worth $ 125 million, which included a Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) conversion contract, as well as three repair , upgrade and modification contracts. Genting Hong Kong ended flat at 34 cents after a trading halt on its shares was lifted. The operator of cruise and resort businesses said that its subsidiary, Star NCLC, has agreed to sell 10 million shares amounting to a 4.36% stake in Norwegian Cruise Line for about US $ 590 million. Proceeds would be used for general working capital or to fund new investments. Vallianz Holdings closed flat at 5.2 cents. The provider of offshore support vessels and integrated marine solutions to the oil and gas industry posted a 29.1% yoy decline in earnings to US $ 3.8 million for 2Q2015 ended June. Revenue rose 68.6% to US $ 65 million in the quarter, spurred mainly by its offshore support vessel (OSV) chartering business.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Update Singapore stocks post biggest drop since October 2011 on China August 12, 2015 : 5:37 PM Singapore stocks tumbled, with the benchmark Straits Times Index posting its biggest decline in almost four years amid concerns China' s currency devaluation will hurt bank earnings and slow economic growth. The Straits Times Index sank 2.9% to 3,061.49 at the close of trading in Singapore. DBS Group Holdings , Oversea- Chinese Banking Corp.  and United Overseas Bank , the nation' s three key lenders, each slumped at least 4% and were the biggest contributors to the benchmark' s decline. Singapore banks have been making inroads into China and the People' s Bank of China' s move to devalue its currency will hurt their earnings, according to Daiwa Securities Group Inc. China' s yuan tumbled, sparking the biggest two-day selloff in Asian currencies since 1998 after the PBOC' s reference rate was cut to the weakest level since 2012. " Their exposure to China provides additional headwinds for the Singapore banks," David Lum, an analyst at Daiwa Securities in Singapore, said by phone. " Their base is still Singapore and Asean, which is also not doing well." The Straits Times Index has lost 9% this year, the worst-performing stock gauge in the developed world after Greece. The Greater China region made up 30% of pretax profit at DBS in the first half, the most among the three Singapore lenders. The region accounted for about a fifth of OCBC' s pretax profit and about 11% of UOB' s. China Sentiment " It' s mainly a sentiment issue here from China," Hans Goetti, head of investment for Asia, at Banque Internationale a Luxembourg SA. The profitability of Singapore banks will probably be limited as " China has slowed down aa lot already," he said. Singapore slashed the upper end of its growth forecast for 2015 on Tuesday after the economy shrank last quarter, signaling a softened outlook as China' s slowing growth takes its toll on the city-state' s export-dependent economy. While Singapore' s banks are among the best-capitalised in the world, loan recovery is suffering after government curbs drove home sales to a six-year low in 2014, oil prices slumped and Southeast Asian economies faltered. Lenders have placed 2.3% of their loan books , the most since 2009, in a " special mention" category that signals potential weakness. In neighbouring Malaysia, concerns are mounting as the currency trades at a 17-year low in an economy that' s probably growing at the slowest pace in more than two years, according to a Bloomberg survey before a report Thursday. CapitaLand , Singapore' s biggest developer with almost half of its assets under management in China, dropped 4.7%, while rival City Developments  lost 3.5%. Noble Group sank 11% amid a rout in raw material prices and ongoing criticism of its accounting, even as Asia' s largest commodity trader resumed stock buybacks.
