Apple iPhone 5 Design: 10 Hot Features We Expect to See

January 31st, 2011 | No Comments

But iPhone fans are already counting down the days to the usual June unveiling of the next-generation iPhone.

Eight Things We Expect to See from Apple in 2011

December 27th, 2010 | No Comments

The New Year will bring a lot of surprises, but it doesnt take a quick shake of the box to figure out some of what Apple has on tap for 2011. Between the shakeup of application distribution contained in the Mac App Store, a new "Lion" release of Mac OS X, and new versions of the iPad and iPhone expected before midyear, theres a lot more going on with Apples product plans than the routine enhancements to processors and graphics. The big question for some users will be: will Mac OS X Lion be the last release of the operating system for server-side computing, or will Apple exit that market entirely, to focus more closely on its burgeoning consumer business?

STI +0.9%; Expect more fund inflows: Kim Eng

November 24th, 2010 | No Comments

Singapore stocks likely to end on positive note as investors regain composure after knee-jerk reaction to conflict between two Koreas.

STI +0.9% at 3,154.12 but not expected to recoup yesterday’s entire 2.0% loss, with previous session’s 3,187 intraday high offering resistance.

Still, Kim Eng Securities expects more upside for market in near term as Singapore’s blue chips, “which offer sound fundamentals and rock-solid balance sheets”, potential beneficiaries of Fed’s QE2; “a further subplot within this context is the likelihood of funds moving out of Hong Kong and China to be invested in the Singapore property market” following recent tightening measures in both markets.

Among developers, CityDev (C09.SG) +1.6% at $12.40, CapitaLand (C31.SG) +0.5% at $3.73, Allgreen Properties (A16.SG) +1.7% at $1.17, SC Global (D2S.SG) +1.3% at $1.58.
