0722 GMT - Singapore Exchange's earnings are likely underpinned in near-term by recent deployment of initial funds from the MAS' S$5 billion Equity Market Development Program, RHB Research's Shekhar Jaiswal says in a research report. Also, potential additional allocations from this program during this quarter could offer near-term support, the analyst says. A lower Singapore Overnight Rate Average and an expected Federal Reserve rate cut could further boost demand for REITs and yield plays in Singapore, sustaining SGX's trading activity. However, RHB Research corrects its non-operating income assumptions for SGX, and lowers the stock's target price to S$17.40 from S$17.80 with an unchanged neutral rating. Shares are 0.9% lower at S$17.27. (ronnie.harui@wsj.com)
