  I sat through the half hour earnings call. Here are the summaries.  The two main questions regarding Indonesia imposing an 8% maximum cap on riders’ fees and high fuel prices affecting their business. The new fees cap are only specific targeting those 2 wheelers. It only affect 6% of their total mobility GMV. So far the 4 wheelers are unaffected by the rule change. Questions on rising fuel were frequently discussed. The management is helping partners to convert into EVs, especially those markets without fuel subsidies, like Thailand and the Philippines. If those fuel prices continue to be high, the cost will be passed on to users. They will be most willing to help their drivers directly first. Passing on cost to users will be last resort. Through AI implementation across their businesses, it helps drivers and company managed costs through increase productivity. The management guides for costs to stay flat throughout the year.  Grab Financial is gaining operating leverag...

  (Image credit: juwai.asia) A friend in need is a friend indeed Australia and Singapore recently signed a bilateral agreement to strengthen energy security. Both countries need each other due to disruption in LNG supply to Singapore and fuel disruption to Australia from Qatar. We now import about 1/3 of our LNG needs from Down under. Our value to Australia will be in the area of priority access to refined petroleum products like diesel and jet fuel, where close to 50% of Australia’s imports come from Singapore. Singapore relies heavily on imported LNG for power generation. Australia as the world leading exporter of LNG can provide the extra LNG we need. Singapore is one of the major refineries in the world. We have many oil tankers coming from all over the world that help to supply our refineries with crude feed stock. From what I have gathered, Singapore refineries take in mostly mid to heavy crude from Middle East. We produce roughly 1.5m barrels per day in refined petroleum pro...

  (Source: MAS) The results for Singapore Savings Bonds May 2026 are out. $215m of the $300m on offer were taken up. That is more than 2/3 of the amount issued. The upcoming June SSBs are likely to come with a similar yield. The yield on the 10-years SGS is on an upward trend. Given the environment of raising yield, Singapore still has the lowest borrowing rates for government and corporations among developed economies. Foreign companies issuing SGD denominated bonds are gaining popularity.

  (Image credit: Olam) The below article is for educational purpose only. Kindly refrain from taking any action. It shouldn’t constitute as an investment advice. Please read the disclaimer . I took a small position in Olam. The financial situation had eased up after the sale of Olam Agri to SALIC. The company completed the sale of an additional 44.58% to the Saudi buyer, in process taking in USD $1.88b. A put and call option would also allow Olam Group to sell and SALIC to buy an additional 19.9% for USD $799.6m, three years after the closing of the latest sales. A few weeks ago, on a separate announcement, Olam sold Mindspint for USD $375m. Both deals will bring more than USD $2b for the company. The proceeds will go towards debt reductions and dividend payments . The received amount reduces interest cost by more than USD $200m annually. The stock is trading at a 40% discount to nav. I am going small on my purchase due to their history of underperformance. God bless. 🙏 Please con...

  (Source: MAS) Welcome to another SSBs review. I am trying to be upbeat about this month’s return. Unfortunately, the 2.14% average yield on May SSBs for a period of 10 years is barely enough to cover the high-inflation environment we are in. I always suspect our inflation is running at a hotter number than the official rate. A fishball noodle selling at $4 bucks is now selling at $5. That is not 2.5% inflation. That is 25% hike in price. That being said, SSBs do have a place in everyone’s portfolio, especially as a short-term safe haven in my opinion. The first year yield of 1.4% and 1.59% represents an acceptable yield for those rainy day funds which can’t be subjected to any risk. SSBs can be redeemed at any point during the 10 year period subjected to a month turnaround with no capital loss. Furthermore, both the first two years yield are superior to most pure vanilla fixed deposits offered by banks. The closing date for this month’s SSBs falls on 27th April@9pm. God Bless. Pl...
