Sembcorp Industries - Signed MOU to develop a megawatt gas-fired power plant in Myanmar
US stocks rallied following a stronger-than-expected November non-farm payrolls that makes it all very likely now that the FED will hike rates at the FOMC meeting next week. The USD gained, oil price fell after OPEC meeting as members maintain oil output at 31.5mil bpd, supply glut continues.
Despite last Friday's strength in the USD, we observed that historically, the USD Index has tendency to correct average 3.7% in the 2-3 months after the FED rate hike cycle starts. The S&P500 would also correct an average 7.5%. If this happens again, we think Singapore stocks may outperform as the SGD rebounds, USD beneficiaries stocks would underperform and although weak now, Brent should head for a technical inflexion pt at USD38pbl in the worst case.
