Now grab send their staff to popular taxi stand to get customers....think if comfort still refuse to take actions....all can return taxi liao...grab rental less than $50..
Nothing negative but positive buying opportunity.   Can wait for get in.
Pressure on last line, once break, see 2.2-2.3.

comfort delgro also coming up with those promo codes to try to boost rides.. $8 off sia.. i wonder how much of this will affect the margins.
Did anyone view the viral video on a uncle driver from Transcab?
Expect more drivers will start.to return cab after cny peak period......comfort did.try to roll out some incentives to retain the drivers...but got lots of term and conditions...eg..must hit certain nos. bookings....wakao. ..if there are ample.bookings ....will the drivers.still think of returning the.cab...!!!
Price continue put pressure on 2.4-2.45, this level is required to be supported for another 1 weeks to turn to bull mode.
Current stated still at long term downtrend and downtrend mode trying to break 2.4.

looks like it' s heading up....
Hopefully down trend is done and continues w consolidation phase for buying opportunity. :)
i think what you mentioned make sense. To add on, I see similar response by CDG shareholders like SPH shareholders before. You may be able to delay the impact but you can' t stop the mega trend.

Price is a trend, result is also a trend. When business is good, it will be better and better, once turn bad, it will be worse and worse.
Both take time to turn peak or bottom to turn bad or good. Your thinking can't help at all. Market decide price, not anyone.
Uber challenge, expatriate leaving, taxi rental fee is adjusted recently, bus and met fee are regulated. Both are harmful to the company. Singapore government somehow moving to the direction of well fare culture to obtain support from people, the first to get support is to manage transport and lower down the cost.
With this environments, this company cannot perform and it will fall till the system are fully adjusted by gov and impacts are fully resolved by market, all these take time to go.
Everyone is looking for bottom price and bottom price is always rewarded to people who has patience, story in market always tell bottom price take months to hold without dropping, look at comfort price, after hitting 2.6, it come down, then 2.4 need to hold again, if 2.4 can't hold but move lower again, the next low level time frame have to recounted again for another 6-9months which is in line with the consistence to deliver 2-3 constant result which show worse is over.
Long term downtrend mean this way.

FInancially, CDG is not doing badly despite the negative market conditions based on the 3Q result, believed full year should still be alright.

I have been talking it down since 3, I just followed chart movement and share my opinions.
Still long way to go for this stock find strong support like GLP who took 9 months for price to stay above 16-18 before reversal.
Now is only 3 month price stay above 2.4, if you are lucky enough, after another 5 months, price still stay 2.4, you may have reversal, before that happen, price is pressured by the long term downtrend.
Obviously support is 2.4. Now is 2.44-2.45, but doubt if it can support with the situation encountered by the company.

imagine if uber/grab are able to pick up flag down customers.. that' s a huge risk. Not sure if they are able to get over this regulation aspect.
Interestingly, had a chat with a comfort taxi driver. He is over 65+, and drives by himself without relief driver. He drives 7 days a wk, from 5am to 10pm, with few hr of noon breaks. It has nv crossed his mind to switch or get relief driver due to the convenience that the car brings. Makes decent amount of money in the range of 6k. I guess, these are retirees with spare time and don' t work for money, but instead, enjoy the convenience of having a car, the luxury of control, the time to burn and their means to keep in touch with the world by chatting happily with customers daily. CDG still has its fair share of loyal customers from this age group of ppl.
I' ll keep a lookout for next year, to see if it will trade closer to nav before considering to buy.

Interesting - Comfort better start lowering their " flag down" fees.
How can Grab and Uber earn money?
Imagine if everyone out there uses Grab / Uber for the 1st trip? What will actually happen? 
 
Short to medium term, CDG revenue profit will be impacted. Even if you believe CDG can outlast Uber/Grab, why buy now?

My concern should be, whether CD can outlast them if it is even intending to go on a big fight with them.
CD is trading way above nav, with a 10% profit margin. So, how will this detoriate, everyone have their own guess. Taxi business account for 1/3 of the profitability, and bus another 1/3. So, do your own maths and see if this has more room to go up, or more to go down.

When you want to buy CDG, your concern should not be whether Uber/Grab will last, BUT how much damage it will cause to CDG even if eventually they don' t last.
