For the first week of investment, I was looking through the net for news regarding property (real estate) companies that are listed on the SGX. What I was looking for was a stable and reputable company that is well known in the market.
The stock that managed to catch my eye was Wing Tai. http://sbr.com.sg/stocks/more-news/wing-tai-grabs-crown-best-performing-property-stock In the above article dated 14 Jan 2013, it shows that Wing Tai is the best performing stock under the firm’s (Nomura) coverage.
