Corporate Movements to Watch
Investors should pay close attention to corporate actions within the local market. Notably, Pacific Radiance will go through ex-rights and ex-bonus issuances on Monday, which could impact its stock’s liquidity and price dynamics. Following this, Tuesday brings Beverly JCG’s ex-entitlement and Vicplas International’s ex-dividend, events that often result in notable movements in the respective stocks.
Dividend Focus
Additionally, the ex-dividend dates for Phillip SGX APAC Div REIT ETF and Phillip Sing Income ETF on Wednesday, 10 January, are crucial for income-focused investors. These events could influence the ETFs’ pricing and yield considerations.
Broader Economic Context
While focused on the Singapore market, investors should also be aware of the wider economic context.
