10 Stocks To Ride A Recovery

The Lunar New Year got off to a good start this week. The index managed to gain 61 points for the week to close at 1746 on Friday.

However US market experienced a triple digit loss of 148 points on Friday to end at 8000 level. This will put some pressure on the Singapore market on Monday.

The latest issue of Edge investment weekly has recommended 10 stocks to ride the recovery.

The list is as follows:

Company

Price as at 30 Jan 08 (S $)
Capitaland2.400
Epure International0.280
Genting International0.435
Midas Holdings0.525
Neptune Orient Lines1.130
Pan-United Corp0.370
Sihuan Pharmaceutical0.705
Singapore Exchange5.150
ST Engineering2.280
United Overseas Bank11.880

The reasons quoted for buying the stocks sound reasonable. However note that last’s year recommended holdings produced an average return of -55%. For more information, please refer to Feb 2 – Feb 8 09 edition of the Edge Weekly.

Let’s hope this year the recommended portfolio can give a better return.

Happy investing and Gong Xi Fa Cai.
