The morphine boost from the much anticipated junket approval in March has faded. Analysts realised that the Singapore junkets are small and are not able to significantly drive volumes like its Macau counterparts. Genting share price retreated from 2012 high of $1.75 to yesterday closing level of $1.50. Some investors are wondering what could be the next catalyst for Genting Singapore.
Unused war chest
Genting went through 2 big cash raising exercises this year. It raised S$1.8bn in February and another S$500mn in April. Dow Jones reported that the management said that the war chest could be used on greenfield projects as well as gaming acquisitions. However, they have yet to announce specific plans.
NOL joining forces
On a separate note, NOL’s subsidiary, APL, announced on Wednesday that it will be launching a new joint service with PIL, linking the Far East and Red Sea. Eight post-Panamax ships will be deployed in the joint service, with APL operating three vessels. The first service will start in June.
