Singapore's Economy May Grow 2.1% This Year, OCBC Says -- Market Talk

0244 GMT - Singapore's better-than-expected 2Q advance GDP estimates and upward revision of 1Q data spur OCBC to upgrade its growth forecast for this year to 2.1% from 1.6% projected earlier. The economy recovered sequentially from 1Q's contraction to expand in 2Q, putting to rest concerns of a technical recession in 1H, says chief economist Selena Ling in a note. However, the external economic landscape remains very fluid, and the key is to monitor potential sectoral tariffs on semiconductors and/or pharmaceuticals. Ling reckons that the Monetary Authority of Singapore's monetary policy review due later this month could adopt a "wait-and-see" mode, barring downside core CPI risks.(amanda.lee@wsj.com)
