0706 GMT - Singapore's manufacturing sector appears to have started 4Q on a solid footing, DBS senior economist Chua Han Teng writes in an email. Manufacturing output jumped by 29.1% on year in October, logging a double-digit growth for the second straight month. The latest data shows continued resilience from 1Q-3Q, despite trade uncertainties from the U.S. tariff roller coaster. The electronics segment's strong performance in October could also hold up in the near term and support the manufacturing sector. This is due to relentless artificial-intelligence related demand and U.S. tariff exemptions on electronics goods, Chua says. (amanda.lee@wsj.com)
