i find the charges for cfd about s$40 each trade leg to be high for cfd phillips.  a round trade will be $80.  In the long run,  we make money for Poems and how much can you make as short term trader..?
anybody get experience if SAXO online really can be mucher cheaper for CFD .
Good trade if can hold a  short  after June8 when all the shares hit the market.  Now it is a bit tricky to short as the bear traps are all around.  Short possibly near top of a squeeze.  Also have to  lookout for BBs /Temasek might preempt everyone and dump the stocks now as SIA already got all the money they need.

Depends on each stock. For sia, i shorted using cfd as no shares available to borrow on poems.

Should be only orginal shareholder entitled. Cheers

It is quite standard arrangement for non original shareholder given the rights to be entitled apply for excess shares when they subscribe. Those who bought rights grom the market are not entitled.
The experienced players should know.

SBL is not difficult. I use this to short too. Some stocks dont have CFD. For poems, u just do a normal sell in the mkt and inform broker. He will do the adj at backend. Of coz before u short, u need to check how many shares does the brokerage firm has. For poems, u can check online or ask ur broker.

When u want to cover back, just buy as per normal and inform your broker. He will do some backend stuff. So far so good for me. Stocks like ARAH cant be short using cfd and need to try SBL if got shares to borro

Sigh... excess rights are only available to shareholders, you are not a shareholder if you only hold the rights (and not the mother share), excess rights application occurs BEFORE the rights are converted to shares so you cannot just buy the rights after XR and apply for excess because YOU ARE NOT A SHAREHOLDER AT THE TIME OF EXCESS RIGHTS APPLICATION. Geddit?

No such thing. All Right holders are treated equally.

For SIA case, where was it specifically written that if you are not a shareholder before XR, you are not entitled to apply for excess right shares

I agree. Unless you are a shareholder before XR, you can' t get any excess. This apply to all SGX shares, not just SIA

I dont think it is specified? It is a public listed company,... excess rights would be made available to the rest?

I don think it works this way. Imagine the take up rate is very low, I am sure SIA would what those " unsubscribed" shares to be sold to those who applied excess, including non-SIA Shareholders before Ex-rights

xtraderx. You are right bec someone has email to SIA Shareinvestor Relation and got a similar reply from SIA Shareinvestor Relation on what you have said with a certain particular clauses pointed out on this issue. This means Trader1987 can apply for excess rights over ATM but ultimately, the excess rights application will be rejected by the system since he is not a shareholder before ex-rights date

The SIA price was around 3.6 ~ 3.8 before the rights application closes ..... At this price, the excess for SIA R will definitely be oversubscribed. No need Ah Kong' s help here.

However, Ah Kong will definitely be required to sweep all the MCB .....

Only shareholders before ex-rights date are eligible for excess rights, you can apply for excess rights if you bought the rights after XR, but you don' t actually qualify for them

U will know when u see how much money is being refunded to u. Also, if u have CDP online, u can login to check the shares credited or call the CDF hotline to check how many shares balance but it will take a longer time to reflect. Checking your bank acct is fastest.

Any kind hearted soul can tell me, when do we know how many shares of SIA (excess rights application) are we being awarded with? Thanks.

I bought the rights shares from open market and oversubscribed it (by a lot) - I know I won' t get all, but how do I know how many shares am I allocated with? And when do I know? Thank you very much in advance.

Singapore, China to launch 'fast lane' arrangement with COVID-19 measures for essential business, official travel

It's time to long lah. The days of shorting is over. Shorting should be done weeks ago. It's time to long. The world is reopening second wave or not.

Just some simple hard data. Out if 15,000 to 20,000 foreigner workers infected, how many have died?
ZERO. Doesn't this tell you some thing about the severity of COVID 19 ? The mortality rate has not changed a bit. Just protect the elderly and the weaker ones and life must resume for the rest but with masks on :)

whatever my observation is ...it is an excellent indicator of which stock is being collected for push and dump operation.

I am not sure about now .... but when the SIA price was 4.4 (second or third day after xR), you couldn' t short via Philips security (CFD). I believe Philips Security might own some SIA shares ... or they borrow from their custodian holding (those who authorised them and earn interest) or maybe they will get the shares from SGX ....

If they dun have any spare shares ...and can' t borrow from SGX to put into the CFD, you can' t short on their CFD platform

Likely very few excess right still be given in view of the price premium over rights exercise.

Yes, look like the balance money not yet credited back. Most probably have to wait till next working day.
