Dear readers, in this post, let us take a look at the year-to-date performance of the 30 Singapore Straits Times Index (STI) stocks in terms of capital appreciation (i.e excluding dividend yields).
First, we have the top ten STI stocks which provide investors with the best capital returns:
1)YangZiJiang stock: 47.6%
2)Sembcorp Industries stock: 29.2%
3)Hongkong Land : 24.8%
4)JMH USD stock: 19.2%
5)OCBC stock: 18.8%
6)Jardine C&C stock: 17.5%
7)SIA stock : 17.5%
8)UOB stock: 16.6%
9)DBS stock: 16.3%
10)Wilmar International stock: 16%
As we noted from the list above, the top three local bank stocks of OCBC, UOB and DBS are in the top 10. OCBC stock is the front runner, followed by UOB and DBS stocks (which provide similar capital returns). What is noteworthy are the Hong Kong-centric stocks of HongKong Land, JMH USD , Jardine C&C stocks. The trio stocks have benefited from the privatisation of Jardine Strategic Holdings or JSH. JSH stock has since exited the STI list. We also saw SIA stock as one of the top winner STI stocks year-to-date as part of the Covid-19 recovery.
The next group of top ten STI stocks are as follows. Despite being placed nineteenth, Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust is the best Trust of the STI as per my elaboration later.
11)SGX stock: 15.1 %
12)Capitaland stock: 13.4%
13)Singtel stock: 10%
14)DairyFarm stock: 7.1%
15)ST Engineering stock: 6%
16)ComfortDelgro stock: 6%
17)Ascendas Reit: 4.9%
18)Venture stock: 4.8%
19)Frasers Logistics &Commercial Trust:3.5%
20)Genting Singapore stock: 3.5%
Finally, the last ten stocks or the worst performing stocks of the STI year-to-date. We have six stocks from position twenty-fifth on that have performed worst than 2020 based on their current stock price. Not surprising, in today’s market environment, we have five of these worst performing STI stocks from Reits and Trusts.
21)SATS stock: 2.3%
22)UOL stock : 1.7%
23)Capitaland Integrated Commercial Trust:1.3%
24)Keppel Corporation stock: 1.3%
