HSBC Stays Underweight on Singapore Equities -- Market Talk

0532 GMT - HSBC remains underweight on Singapore stocks, four members of its Global Research team say in a note. The country's equity market continues to outperform its Asean peers amid risk-off sentiment, they write. But any easing in such sentiment "should pave the way for rotation into laggard markets where valuations are more attractive, earnings growth is likely [to] be better and investor positioning is much lighter." They note that while Singapore's industrial companies are set to benefit from global capital-expenditure increases, tariff uncertainties pose near-term risks amid expected delays in investment. HSBC prefers property names over banks in a falling interest-rate environment. (ronnie.harui@wsj.com)
